And now the next report of mobile phone killer. who cares this formulation, or who is interested in why I call I phone killer who read this in the introduction of my report to C72. Would not play the whole recap.
Incentive for the report
The incentive for this report is actually quite simple. I have seen the device in your pocket and on my last report that no one has reported on this simple but still robust device. It is less the initial report bonus, although I did not refuse to give rather than the incentive Idhawati.com opportunity to use my experience to the product lists Gap-fill, be it ever so old and bought some equipment. Finally, there are also people with little money in his pocket that might be interested in this!
Purchase incentive
Recently I bought this little mobile phone, as a second / spare. I expected nothing and was almost not of this. But who will only make phone calls, or SMS’sen is hereby advise you well. For me, the price was the ultimate incentive to buy, because I’m become rather stingy.
Now do not love Cologne upset, this is only the German communications center, and no reason to throw away all your Nokia phones! At this point, I can maybe someone explain where the Cologne-Dusseldorf feud really comes !?!?!?!? thanks!

Design and handling
The rather boring design can only do well by the advantages of optical beautifully designed buttons. The operation is, as you would expect, perfect. All buttons are easily accessible, and to use the functions without problems. I had Nokia also expects nothing else. In devices like the N series, it reflected the Nokia is able to design and attractive visual highlights to share. Unfortunately, it has saved in any case of this at all corners. I think a more attractive design to the market value would have certainly done well, but what does one expect from a discount device already?
At least the design of the X-Press On Covers a little influenced, but is really visual highlights can be set not by. Not even if you just want to decorate with airbrush. Sorry Nokia but since you have used the toilet!
Instructions and accessories
The manual is included as Nokia usually very brief, but quite understandable, and sufficient reference to. It is not really informative, but at least you can learn on the last page which is still available for original equipment. In addition to the X-Press On Covers, the removable upper shell, there is still advertising for batteries and chargers.
The included accessories are low, is high enough to use, and over the instructions and the charger should not be expected.
Price and where
For the very reasonable price of just € sixty of this unit is in all stores and on the Internet to obtain. Bundled with a pre-paid card, I would not buy the device but since the SIM-lock for this device is simply exaggerated. It costs almost nothing new, after all, unlike other phones.
The mobile phone in everyday life
The Nokia 1101 presents itself as an everyday companion zuverichtlichen dar. It is very robust, which is receiving good, and I had no failures! SMS will always arrive, and could also be read again. Now I have to admit honestly that I swim a little, otherwise I would here my experience with the built-in cameras, describe the Blootooth name, or the games or software, but this phone has only two well-known Nokia games that have absolutely nothing new , but can make a long bus or train trips certainly a little amusing. The shooter Space Impact is relatively new, but today even knows Snake, each of the mobile phone or not? For it is an Atari classic, which is made again and again.
A test case, the device had to stand with me, fortunately only once, while the cover has come off, but the phone is quite still. Minor scratches are normal and acceptable. The voice quality was actually okay, but not too nice!
The battery life has, despite the fact that this is a phone with no display, Blootooth or other technical facilities of the higher class, the battery is good only in theory for 300 hours. A standby time of 12 days or more, I could not reach. After 4 days I had to constantly reload. That may be because I use this device more than once a week, and it was just to look at the clock. I would like but do not doubt that the Standybyzeit can extend to 300 hours if the device is charging, and thereafter neither uses nor takes out the key lock. In terms of phone time I’m rather surprised, however, because of my feeling is reflected in a Non-permanent use, a much higher talk time. I’ve never tracked, but nevertheless it seems longer.
All in all, the battery is good and solid all-round performance, as could the entire phone. Even with repeated phone calls, I run calls between 2 and 10 minutes, every three days earlier than I need to recharge the battery.
Who this unit but as a secondary device, such as business phone use, the need so no technical extras, sets, but rather value vielleict a very powerful battery, this would just be interesting for field staff, I highly recommend the battery with another exchange. The 850 mAh battery but can be upgraded very easily. The new battery should not be more expensive than 15 or 20 €. You can find a recommendation for a source it in the next section!
Furthermore seie here mentioned for all doubters that we can buy a cell phone to make phone calls! For playing or listening to music, I recommend more of a MP3 player or a Playstation Portable, which will not only better performance but also more fun, because as far as the smart-phone technology has not.
The very simplicity of this phone, and the absolute maturity of these “outdated” technology to bear on it is a almost disruption-phone. As a reliable companion, it can provide his phone and SMS services at any time, and may, without the gimmicks and do not really break much.
Also I would like to report on this from the experience of a good friend who is currently in the adventure. It is users of high quality and efficient mobile phones. Already used all the Nokia Communicator models, like the Razr V3, Samsung P800 and P900, Nokia N80 and even the N90. Yes the guy has a lot of money, and always buys the latest and greatest of new and good! But from him I learned that these models offer extreme performance, but apparently there are only for bragging.
Who all the functions of such a mobile phone extensively used, and will rely on it is after a few weeks now disappointed. This experience I can share, not as I do not own such expensive equipment, but it speaks for itself when you’re platinum club in D2, but still has persistent phone outages. D2 Platinum Club, I will maybe have otherwise describe, but that’s another report. It should be noted here is only that I mean to use all functions. E-mail daily 6 to 8 times to use the removable drive and the camera, nuzen to the device as a mobile Internet terminal and a wireless modem for the laptop. So really all functions including ion organizer straining full.
But what is this section now? It simply shows us once again how vulnerable modern technology really is. Who is on the other hand, mature, older technology out that can safely rely on it. I for one had good experiences with a very old Alcatel Communicator that is convenient and powerful and was!
Tips and Tricks
Are there really is not really for this device. I can tell you only one distributor of mobile phone accessories to the heart of the set also features the original accessories and many other things that can make cell phones more attractive leads.
Some Idhawati.com readers have bad reports on this distribution. So I warn you once before, not everyone is with delivery and service behavior to agree, but I had never really part of my major problems with them. There you “had all abandoned her as if I used the good prices, or you prefer to look around elsewhere, because there are certainly many selling accessory products, whether original or remake.
In any case, I suggest once again how to use so often a leather bag. Not only scratches on the screen are thus avoided, but it also offers better protection against impact a disabled child, and the typical fall from his pocket. Also covered is the leather bag in a position to hold the cover in that makes sure that no one in the wide operating on it occurs, and thus the cover useless.
also increases the optically improved condition, which occurs after being used by the leather case the resale value. It is finally charged much less scratches or dents in the housing and display, even if this phone is certainly not high resale value!
Service
So here we are once again reached a critical point. The device may be robust as it wants, but eventually caught one device always a Monday, and added stress. As a replacement unit should happen naturally, but it happens sometimes.
With the service I have ever done any good experiences. I had this phone still not in the repair, but my 3300 was almost 3 months on the road from the dealer to service partners and back and back and back and forth, and so on ….
The first time you have messy my battery and my charger defective sent back, I had this sent next to the phone.
Although the dealer has replaced the battery, but the charger again took a few weeks. Then I got the phone can send back because it was already back in the bucket. It was the sixth attempt was successful, I received a brand new Nokia, but now I had always bought another, different from a dealer.
The srvice Although the partner-dependent, but my service point was in Cologne, and with whom I’ve fallen animal’s face. So if your dealer says we the Radio in Cologne, let it, and prefer to seek out someone who is so familiar.
Alternative Recommendation
Who will spend Soch again not that much money would just to get a cell phone without a contract, despite the very reasonable price, can also draw on other offers. They may be interesting for those who just need a cell phone number with their personal and business calls separate. For example, people are very much a call around the clock, but want to be reached from a certain time only to private.
Cheap card provider as Blue.de, clear cell, Aldi Talk, Simyo and many others have today, unfortunately, no cell phones to their offers, but Vodafone is there in Callya package is a very interesting offer, the Sagem My X1 favorite playing grounds, to have for 10 € 10 Euro credit. Although this is also the best, a device for making phone calls and SMS’en enough, but if you buy the Nokia 1110, can also get the Sagem mobile phone for free with Callya card.
This has perhaps the advantage that you can throw away defective devices the same, or sold at a loss in E-Bay, and can buy a new right, for mobile phone + +10 Euro credit card (seen in Bonn, Ahrweiler, Sinzig and Cologne) probably an unbeatable offer no matter how bad the phone is really for now, to make phone calls is enough and with almost identical features and requirements.
For Knauserfreaks, misers, the unemployed, a very interesting alternative ….
Conclusion
Those like me who is looking for a second device which is suitable only for calls, and provide much-gadgets with this device is the extremely low price, well served. It would be my only phone, I had complex but does it his service as a replacement. It is reliable and Preileistungsverhältniss is optimal. But whoever wants to use as the main instrument of better leave it alone!
For people who are really stingy, I have given an alternative purchase recommendation, which certainly is interesting, and perhaps even find their benefits.
Pro: small, light, cheap, robust, removable cover
Cons: no special functions, lack of camera, lack of Blootooth
