Summary: Good phone for it's price
Review: I've had this phone for about 6 months, and I just now found out how to adjust the volume. It doesn't have wireless web, but recieves text messages if you sign up( this is with sprint). Overall I am satisfied with this phone, you can have fun with the interchangeable face plates and the backlight is pretty cool. This is a good phone for beginner cellphone user. I think I'm ready to upgrade.

Summary: Their are better choices
Review: If the phone hadn't been free, I'd be really mad. The reception is fair. Battery life, what battery life, I have maybe 20-30min talk time tops. Standby is several days, but I didn't get it to sit there. I'm not one to abuse my things, so they last. I've had the phone 10 months and the keypad is already failing, the front cover is coming loose and every once in awhile it will change screens on its own (really just sitting there on my desk). The fuctions onboard are very good, user freindly and useful. I don't play the games on it, I just use it to talk which is about 250min a month. Would I get another one No, but if its free and all you need is a emergency type phone this will do. I have to admit their are better choices out there.

Summary: Nothing but problems
Review: My husband and I each got a Nokia 3585 last year. We have had nothing but problems with these phones for the past 6 months. Each phone has been sent for service (twice!) for failing to turn on even though the battery had a full charge. Now, the display screen of one of the phones occasionally fails to illuminate, making the screen very difficult to see. I think these phones are very poor quality and are not made to last. You would do better to invest a little more money in a better quality phone.

Summary: Great phone, no cool features.
Review: This phone is good... it doesn't have all (or even very many) of the deluxe features that the more expensive ones do. There's no internet browsing or downloading (if you have Sprint). But it does get better reception and clarity than any phone I've had before. This is the first phone that has ever gotten a signal in my room, which I am grateful for. But I am looking for a new phone right now because I want to be able to download ringers and check my email. If you don't want these things, this phone is your best bet for the money.

Summary: Great phone for first time users
Review: This was my first cell phone. It's great because it isn't overly difficult to learn how to use. I read the manual so I could figure out all of the capabilities of the phone. Very fun because the phone has capabilities to change faceplates, keypads, rings, and boarders along the screen of the phone. It has voice activated dialing, along with being able to store addresses, email addresses, and even has a year round calendar in it. Great sound, great reception. Overall i am very pleased with this phone. If you don't need anything fancy (color screen, flashy flip-phone image, internet, downloadable rings, etc), just to use as a phone, this is for you!
