This is on of the phones I still have. It is unique in that it shows the temperature on the front display, it is a calories counter, and has a flash light at the front.. I am wondering why on earth they have not added these to the latest Nokia phones. I also love the design too. I am glad I kepted it as you can hardly find it around anymore.

This is the coolest-looking phone ever made. Not everyone had this phone, and I love the rubber shells, flashlight and toughness. Everytime I see someone else use this phone (which is very rare), I end up missing my 5100. I have the 5140 (along with an N73) now and am awaiting the arrival of a 5140i, which I ordered online. The 5100's specs are outdated now, but it does the basics like texting, calling and sending mms very well.

The memory cannont be expanded the phone was released in 2003 at the time 725kb memory was considered the normal. Best advise UPGRADE your phone.

I have had this cell for the last 3 years and i'm getting a bit tired of it. Yes, it's very durable and resistant, but the keypad has become so horrible to use that I have to struggle 5 minutes to type a 3 word sms. Other than that, it's pretty good. I dropped it for tens of times and it still functions superbly. However the battery life has diminished considerably from 6-7 days to about 2 and a half. Anyway... the keypad killed it in my opinion

Terrible phone,the day I got it I switched it off and couldnt switch it back on,was sent for a repair,has constant freezes and you dont realise your phone isnt working very bad for business.It switch itself off once and I was near a vodafone store,3 of us tried to get it to work pulled the thing apart would not come back on I was told I needed yet another repair........15 minutes later I thought Id try and turn it back on and it actually worked,the girls in the shop couldnt believe it when I went back and showed them they thought it was a great phone and I was making up all the software stories piece of crap phone with lousy service from Nokia
