This is the phone I wanted but and I know it's simple. That's why I want it. I'm just waiting for more updated version. my friend purchased his when it came out and it had problems so..
If the upgraded version and is not making anymore phone shutting down then I just might pick one up soon. This is why I'm here posting and wanting to see more post from people that bought their 8801 recently.
Batt life isn't an issue for me cuz my razor barely last me one day.

      shaolin :

      Not encounter problem with the newest 3.9v firmware. If you want a simple, classy, long lasting looking, durable & user friendly phone, this is it, period.

      Overall, none of my other phones came close.......LIST :- Nec L1, SE K750i & 600, Samsung D500 / E770 / D520 / Z540 / P300(this is the worst one), Motorola V3 & V3i, Vertu(good quality) and a few Chinese/Korean join production phones.

      8800 is still the best for me (I personally prefer slider phone...especially thin ones). LG chocolate is a nice slider phone with a good size; but the phone is too plasticky feeling & has got no hands free speaker phone(anyway, LG phones are not in the same class!)

        okok..
        it doesn't matter who will fit better with this phone. some rich buys it and some poor will buy it as well. who cares.

        I would like to hear from more people that have this phone that bought it recently and if they have any more issues like phone shutting off by itself.

        This phone has been out awhile now so it should be a little bit better than half year ago.

            i can't believe i got one for P15K here in the philippines, slightly used, complete accessories, no noticeable scratches. well, just sharing my great find, enjoying this phone immensely. but i have to say, the 6680 is still my main phone, better functions you know...

              I know there was a lot people that complain about the phone will turn off by itself but that was when the phone first came out.
              What about people that bought the phone recently like one or two months before June 2006?

                  This isn't a cell phone. This is status.
                  People who can afford it are not worried about features. They're looking for price and beauty.

                        The Cell Phone is beautiful but it comes with a glitch, how can i describe the glitch, well! you got to see my right thumb, its brused, it hurts all because of the 8800. When the Clamshell/pop open cover goes down, God forbid if you get ur thumb or skin caught inside. Its horrible!

                          *Special Edition* gun metal colour 8800 is also available in Mainland China, check it out at Nokia website(China).
                          In the Nokia China website picture, I don't seem to notice the word *Special Edition* engraved to the back cover of the 8800 like those selling in Hong Kong.

                            Err honestly look at the specs, who would pay over $600 for something like that? And if you're buying it for the design than it's lame because you're simply paying hundreds of dollars for scrap metal (you can hear the big bosses in the Nokia HQ laughing at you). Sorry guys, this phone is so outdated...

                                  Just brought the *Special Edition* gun metal colour 8800. Everyone said that it look even better than the stainless steel colour(I do agree, which is one of the reason I brought it.......although I am still keeping the stainless steel one).

                                  As far as I notice, the software has been updated.......some of the functions' details have been changed(you need to press 'DONE' to confirm). The metal part below & around the camera used to be mirror like & can be used to take self portrait; but not anymore!

                                    Why you ppl running around your tiny world of MP camera or expandable memory? Go for something else if you dpn't get what you want for 8800 but PLZ do NOT be stereotypes and come out of your tiny world. This beauty really rocks and a truly flagship phone by Great NOKIA

                                      8800 still got the best quality hands free speaker phone. The newest software is 3.9?v.

                                        worst signal, it makes you want to break it then to return it.
