Really special phone...looks better that any other "trendy" phone
I am not being mean or anything but this phone is pretty bad: no camera and only monophonics !!!
The most elegant phone ever made.
It was inevitable. Nokia has just announced the 8800 which is the next model of the 88xx series of high end 'style' phones. No doubt there will be another version which uses different metal body. Check it out on the nokia website, and here as well.
The 8850 is pretty much obsolete. The only place you could find one would be ebay.
There are newer versions of the PC Suite, and I think can be downloaded from the Nokia website. Whether it will be compatible with the 8850, I don't know.
G'day there...
I still have this gr8 mobile, however I'm running Windows-XP I can't get the PC Suite s/ware to work. I understand it will only work for older versions of Windows, Windows ME and under.
Any ideas of where I can get an updated version for the 8850 to work under the PC Suite s/ware for W-XP.
TIA
Thanking In Advance
sir i am really intrested in this nokia 8850 but this picei can't get thruogh market i thing this handset is not available in market .but i want to purchase this nokia8850 what i can do ???
Yeah I agree, I bought it as being in full working order so i'm sending it back. Thanks for your help. I'll have to get another phone instead! (Again)
Sounds like you've got a slightly dodgy phone there nate...presumably it was second hand and not preserved as new.
It doesn't pick up signals as well as newer phones, but not the problem you describe. The clock should be fine...I too rely on the alarm.
Just got one of these phones, I've wanted one for some time and the opportunity came to get one very cheaply. I've dispensed of my N-gage and Sony T610 to have one of these. They look SOOO cool. One problem I have though is with the Clock, it just doesn't keep time! It is very very slow. As a result I can't use the alarm which i rely on! Also the signal is very weird, it often goes from 4 bars to none and then back to 4 again when just sitting on the desk! It often goes when i open the slide and i have to wait for signal to come back before i can make a call! Anybody else had these problems??
Still a great little phone, Nate.

heh...I've owned this phone for 4 years now and it still so cool. I don't need any of the fancy colour screens, camera and stuff. A phone that lets you call people and receive calls, wow, those were the days.
My battery (original) still gives me 3-4 days standby and light use. So if yours is less, probably time to replace the battery.
Waiting to see what Nokia will produce next for the 88xx series before I want to give this up. Has to be small, stylish, and metallic.
it suites any time,place,class etc. can it be improved to accommodate features like mms,gprs,pic/video etc.
If you don't care about those colour screen,mms or whatsoever they call hi tech thing,this is the phone you looking for.I my self have used this phone 3 times and it really feel good to hold it and use it.It's really timeless design phone.
A truly beautiful phone
I have a Sony Ericsson k700i which i belive is 1 of the best phones in 2004 but when i got a 8850 i coulden't careless what functions the phone had, the looks were enough to draw me in. Now i have a $1300 Sony Ericsson sitting around. THE 8850 RoCkS
Great phone... sophisticated, elegant, chic with a touch of class kinda phone. Who cares about the features? the phone simply kiss A**
I like 8850 very much..
his model very simple but looks elegan
why nokia not continue 8850 to 8850i.
with some new feature, like colors lcd, poliphonics, and can mms :)
the casing can be replaced at PhP 4500
