    I have this phone because it's a dumb phone and no one wants to steal it! The battery lasts about 3 weeks on standby and after 5-6 hours of yak-yak the batt was over 60% from full. Text is like old phones so keep it simple. But the best thing is the voice audio quality, it's such a pleasure to listen to and the external speaker works very well! Also the the voice input mic on handsfree lets you move quite a way away and still be heard by your friend leaning on your every word! It's a great phone at being a phone, everything else is BLING! Like all Nokia's the camera is 'rubbish'! Only good for recording car number plates that park next to you in car parks so you have some to blame to the cops afterwards. Also is so beautiful to touch, hold and listen to... despite it's blackness! Just get it and decide afterwards if you don't like it. I bought two because they are tough, cheap and reliable and they do phone calls really well, the ipad does the rest!

      I would really like to know how the Nokia 800 performs in terms of signal strenght. I need a phone that can hold a phone call without breaking up. The signal strenght must be good quality.

          I had two(original and replacement) of these die on me after tethering them to my PC for internet use. Not sure if anyone else has had the same experience.

          I really wanted to like this phone.

            This phone is the closest to what i want, but still sooo far.

            I like the ruggedness.
            Hotspot availability is super useful.

            Dear Nokia, when you come out with the next feature phone, get some basics right and don't burden the environment:
            USB-C !
            The screen needs to be sunlight readable.
            Back in the day screens were monochrome and the time was always on.
            And how is LAG even slightly accepted these days??

              I am happy to read all the feedback, becouse otherwise i would have bought it. I use a random crappy feature phone daily. And i engage social media only couple times a day using my laptop.

              But those of you unhappy with the 8OO:
              CONTACTS - I have my main contacts on SIM-card and that way I always have them where ever my SIM has been inserted. I am not an important person, I don't need to be able to call to 1300 people at all times =D
              BATTERY - I don't think the phone is meant for being used to go to internet so often. Just like smatphone - if you're not using internet, SWITCH IT OFF. The battery is far smaller than the ones in smartphones, it's no miracle that it runs out, stupids =D

              Someone said it well - despite the small screen, we still want to take acceptable photos.

              Reasons I am not buying the 8OO?
              MicroUSB!
              And also the laggy buggy OS (thanks so much for the feedback from users:).

              Bytheway - is there a theme in UI where you can make it all silmple black and white? I am not 4y/o anymore, I promise I won't cry when there are no colors..

                just received my anthracite one, pretty satisfied with it - but do keep in mind that the screen scratches extremely easy.
                I've only had it for 2 days and it's already full of small fine scratches.

                      I purchased this phone and was very excited about it, but I was disappointed in the very first minutes of its use.. I was shocked to realize the contact list is basically not usable. If you have found your contact person you cannot jump to another with a simple click of a button, you have to start over. Typing is extremely annoying and sluggish. This can be said for the whole KAI OS which restarts itself unexpectedly quite often and thinks way too much for simple operations. ''Feature apps" work Loudspeaker which I tend to use often is very disappointing, 20 yrs old Nokia models have better sound.. Battery life is nothing like the promise on the package - if you use it normally it lasts no more than 4-5 days. Overall - Nokia is no longer what you think it is. If you want a good Nokia phone with buttons look for older models.

                                  I like this feature phone.This phone have a 4G line and supports 2 slot sim with microSD.This phone are amazing because there have a google assistance like a smartphone but he still use mouse to move but it's still ok for me. This phone like nokia 2720 flip with google assist and 4G line. I think this phone can be ok when the screen can be big and easy to watch such as youtube. This phone have youtube but the screen is to small.It can be ok if the screen is 3.1. And one more I like this phone because there have a water ressistance that should have in 2720 flip but it's ok.I think this phone can make a camera in front that can be a video call because he have a 4G line.

                                        Quite disappointing. I totally understand this is not meant to replace smartphone capabilities, but this just have so many flaws for such a simple device. This wouldnt have taken much. Better camera and better software would make this phone banger. Right now it just sells for being "Nokia" but it's not even near.

                                        Pros:
                                        * Surprisingly light for such bulky phone.
                                        * It's not smartphone.
                                        * Feel goods to hold in hand very comfortable size.

                                        Cons:
                                        * User experience is terrible I would say original Nokia 3310 had far more better and snappier experience.
                                        * Layout and mapping and mapping of menu-buttons is rather confusing often must figure which button does what.
                                        * OS is slow and laggy and a lot of bugs unexpected reboots.
                                        * Battery could be far more better for such large and at the same time small-screened phone.
                                        * Bad camera.
