I have 5500 for almost 3 years and it still works fantastic!
it reads your sms to you amazing
just wondering if anyone knows if you can get an adapter that can make the phone ready to receive a pair of 3.5mm headphones?
I bought this phone and within 2 months the keypad started to fall off. I tried to repair it with clue but that does not work for long. I have meet one other 5500 owner and he had the same complaint. would not recommend this phone.
It's actually a very good phone. It has been very usefull in my career(i'm not an athlete).i can install a lot of good programs(though,limited because of it's screen size), great speaker, good camera, not bulky and fits in my pocket unconspicuously. but nokia should have known better about the key pad problem. they could have at least made available some key pad replacements to be purchase if it's not included in the warranty.
I have glued it and so far it has no signs of peeling off(4 months)so keypad aside.. i still believe that this is an excellent phone. I'm looking forward for an upgraded version and hopefully with a sturdy keypad.
bought this phone, cover came off in a week, Nokia Care won't help (don't answer phone), say it is not covered under warranty. DO NOT BUY
Does this phone have a phone charming slot? I know it seems silly but its really important to me, the diffrence between this and the E50. I think I see it on the bottom...
Very Disappointed with the 5500 Sport form Nokia. It has to be charged every 2 days, if you make or receive calls then every day. The key pad to answer or end call is to small. You need to have good eye sight to see the display. Compared to 5140 and the 5100 the 5500 phone is the worst phone I have ever owned. Nokia get your act together.
disadvantages:
-keypad has come off within 2 months.Nokia care(green park,delhi) says it is(keypad) not under warranty..or sometimes they say they donot 've it in stock,just 2 save their a** .
-handsfree connector is loose(spoils whole music listening),submitted for replacement ,got it after 34 days,still the same f***in problem..
-battery life is very less(
Great phone. Battery was much better than I expected...3-4 days with 20-30 mins calls/day, some sms and mp3 use.
w710 is much betterrrrr as sport phoe ..
Disappointing battery life- ~ 2 days - even with light useage. Pity radio doesn't work without earphone attachment.
Font should be bigger on screen. camera reasonable - nothing to write home about. Counter intuitive menu functions - overly complex....and I'm only 44!! I somehow expected much more sport ruggedness - for watersports too. Not that impressed - Ericcson 310 still the most rugged - even though old now!!
I've got the same problem with the keypad. I really love this phone but I think nokia shut take a look at this problem.
its very good
thank
mine came off in my hand and went every where
I love this phone. Its sturdy, has Symbian 60 v3, easy to use (OK-small screen-but its not bulky). BUT-a HUGE problem with its keypad.
The first time it came off in 2 weeks-it was glued back by the service center and came off in another 2 days; the reseller changed it it for a NEW. In ONE MONTH-the keypad of the new one has come off. I am now trying to get it fixed or replaced. If anyone here knows anyoone in NOKIA or knows their recall policy-they should be told that they are screwing up an amazing phone due to poor workmanship on ONE aspect of it-the keypad.
PS: the one minute con of the dictaphone can be got over by installing ALON MP3 dictaphone. the small screen display also makes it the smallest S60 phone in the market (look at the bulky N80 and the N9x series!!)
I bought the phone to replace my 5140i and l sold it in 2 days keeping the 5140i.
Nokia made a phone that only young people with no vision problem can operate.The fonts are so small that on the accessories list they should include a magnifying lens.Otherwise the layout of controls in the keypad is not a NOKIA and you must try hard to get used to it.
tha best Phone :)
Had the phone for 2 months.... Keypad is glued only... came off last week. Get this... I'm from Canada and since it's a european phone, Nokia didn't want to give the support to out of England's clients... nice !!!
Siemens made the first outdoor lifestyle phone and they are still best at it. check out this torture test on M75.
