Summary: I have one, it's great!
Review: Don't listen for advice from anyone that has never used one. It is by far the best phone I have ever had! Great reception, great signal strength, it's just plain great. Check out www.my-symbian.com and you can find TONS of sweet apps for this series 60 phone ranging from games, to a lie detector, to a guitar tuner. And transfering files is a snap with wireless bluetooth. Combine all these great phone features with some of the NGE games that out there and you have a killer device!

Summary: Nokia N-Gage QD Could Be Better
Review: I bought this because I wanted a phone that could has good graphics to play games. I bought this from T-Mobile and after a while I thought this was a complete waste of money. The place where you put the games doesn't play them. The battery now only lasts for 45 minutes. The game graphics aren't actually as good as I thought. The QD isn't that good for those reasons but the one thing I wish they didn't take out was the mp3 Player! Here are the technical specs of the N-Gage QD.

Summary: Cutie more like a PDA
Review: I have no complaints over this cell phone. There is no comparison to the Nintendo DS, its a cell phone first and then a game machine. It is a diverse little device,it can play music, videos, type spreadsheets, load jpegs, bmps, gifs, play games, and, oh yeah, call people.

I mainly use it for its 'to do list' feature, calendar scheduler, check email, and as a cell phone. Comparing it to other cell phones, I do believe it is one of the best for the price. A better cell phone than this one is the Nokia 6630 but the sound is not as great and its a lot more expensive.

I do suggest getting a 1GB MMC, if you are interested in using software to use this cell like a PDA.

Summary: Best Value and Most Portable
Review: I own a DS, a PSP, and both N-Gages and the QD is easily the most portable and versatile. Yes, the PSP is uber powerful but so were the Nomad and TG Express and like both of those it's just a little too big and the battery power is not enough (usually just under 4 hours when single player). The DS offers a better experience for portability (6-7 hours battery) but again is too large and its two screens and touch screen don't do anything great for gaming. With a QD you are getting a fully functional cell, PDA, and a gaming machine of quality similar to a Sega Saturn except that it's connected like an XBOX. With mine I carry hours of movies, chat/e-mail/browser/emu/mp3 softs, my wanted games photo collection, and mountains of games including Journey II, Legacy, Atlantis Redux, Pocket Kingdom, Asphalt Urban GT, Sims Bustin Out, King Of Fighters Extreme, Elder Scrolls Travels Shadowkey, Ashen, Doom, etc. Even with all of that it weighs less and the battery last longer (9-15 hours).

Summary: The best phone I've ever had
Review: I've installed some emulators. I can play thousand of games right now. Since I have a Palm Zire 72, I am not going to install any additional application for my n-gage because it is no keyboard on my n-gage and I am worring about virus.
If there is a keyboard on it, I will absolutely sell my palm.

Cons:
Mono sound
Handset speaker is not clear
Dual band Only

Summary: Best Phone on the Market
Review: If you like games and you have a cell phone, then the QD is the perfect thing. I have had mine for about a week now, and I admit that I am completely addicted to it. The games out now are decent, but the ones that are coming out very soon are some of the best titles and exclusive games.

This is the best gaming handheld for it's size and functionality. With the PSP and DS coming out, it will not be the best overall soon, but it still will be the only one with REAL multiplayer support worldwide while the others lack mobility (ironic isn't it) for multiplayer. It also boasts the first MMO for a handheld called Pocket Kingdoms.

With it's operating system, the huge list of programs you can run on it, it's exponentially rising list of games available, and it's compactness make this THE solution for a gamer in need of a cell phone.

Thanks

Summary: Sweet Phone
Review: This is a great phone, the graphics are top notch. There are some things to note, if you also get a bluetooth dongle then you can use your PCs internet connection to surf the web without being charged by your phone provider. Another thing, be cautious regarding the amount of memory you use on the phones 4 Mb provided, if you fill it then the phone will lock up and be useless until fixed by a Nokia service center. To keep from doing that, buy an extra MMC memory card, and get the bluetooth dongle for your PC. After that, check out the games. Why buy a game system and a phone when for half the cost you can get both together. I am so happy with this phone.

Summary: Don't Listen To The Negative Feedback
Review: Whatever people say about this phone is wrong. People have told me that you shouldn't buy it cause the graphics suck... what do you expect from a phone? , for a cell phone the graphics are great. There is so much to do with the phone its ridiculous... definitely the best 200 bucks i ever spent.
