Nokia 5100 review from Norway
"Not waterproof, and not user friendly"
What things have gone wrong with the mobile phone?
My Nokia 5100 had no problems in the first 6 months.
Then the reception went bad, and the handheld camera began to give low-quality pictures, even when put on high quality.
No guarantee said the dealer. It's supposed to be that way!
Dust appeared easily inside the cover, and the locking was not good enough.
At the end, SMS was a pain due to key-problems. Several keys were hard to get to work. Some didn't work at all.
I guess that 4500 sms is their limit.
General comments?
Worked well, but quickly worn out.
Camera and "hands-free" were not a success.
Probably easy to get dust in.
Less ring-tones and graphics than other phones.
