Dear friends, I have recently written my report to the Motorola V980, and said that, I will keep this phone for some time. Well, that will be. But wait a minute because the V980 does not have all the functions that can have a cell phone so I have a little over a week, bought the Nokia 8800, as a kind of cell phone for the weekend or special occasions.

History
Tatort: Media Markt Basel, Switzerland, 1.3.2006, mobile division.
Actually, I just wanted to get a new program, but now that I sometimes am very happy in the media market, I went to the above-mentioned department and looked at me once for something. Nothing bad to make me think and without great thought to a new phone, I ran past the Nokia exhibition wall, and as I saw it, the Nokia 8800th And I knew that I MUST HAVE THE! IMMEDIATELY!
Reason to buy
As I before my Motorola V980 actually only on Nokia phones by the manufacturer, built and then was disappointed at times but a model very much, I actually said to me that I will never buy another Nokia. Now I had heard from various sources that 8800 was a very high quality device that also has to offer. But more on this below.
Well, now that I’m a little techie times, I wanted to convince myself of this phone. And only have the external impression urged me to buy the Nokia 8800th But this later closer.

Hardness Test
So now it was again time for that to subject a good part of my test. One wants to know what is there for special occasions or on weekends carries with him around.
ITEM 1 : the battery well with the most important ever in a mobile phone is the battery, that is, the life span. This is indicated by Nokia that it has a talk time of up to three hours and a standby time of up to 8 days. So the guys are something very fired over the target out. My experience has shown that the battery is not very frequent use a talk time of 1.3 hours not survive, and a standby time of 80 hours is the absolute maximum. This well understood with a brand new battery!
My Rating : 2 out of 5 points. (**)
ITEM 2: Ringtones: Just fantastic! 64 Poly Ringtones and consistent MP.3 ringtones have already something in itself. On the phone are approximately the Optional ringtones available, are probably found on all newer Nokia models. With the ability to be quickly and easily download the new sounds onload more than enough. Even the sound is insane! Should we have just heard a little for themselves.
My Rating: 5 out of 5 points. (*****)
ITEM 3: Call quality: Well, since there are so many cell phones the problem is that often times one can hear noise or rattle. This is of course very important discussions with ugly, but you have to ask the often what has now told the opposite. Not so with this phone! A bell-understanding, as one would face each other. It is a pleasure to call it!
My Rating: 5 out of 5 points. (*****)
ITEM 4: Design: Timeless beauty, elegant and special. Probably the design of the Nokia 8800 meets best. By the stainless steel cover, it is an eye-catching, no matter where you are. However, the Nokia 8800 mobile phone no, which one should use for everyday life.
My Rating: 4 out of 5 points (****)
ITEM 5: Accessories: The accessories supplied with this product looks like him. I’ve never had so much equipment in a mobile phone while, as was the case with the Nokia 8800th For this you have to really express by Nokia a big praise!
My Rating: 5 out of 5 points. (*****)
ITEM 6: Price: Well, this is also why the Nokia 8800 for the average is not something you should consider for everyday! In Switzerland, the Nokia 8800 does all the 1390th – sFr, and Germany would have cost the unit to the 850 €. Although the price-performance ratio is correct, it is still a fairly salty price.
My Rating: 3 out of 5 points. (***)
Overall rating: 5 of 5 points! (*****)
Conclusion
Apart from the price and the sore spot in many a cell phone, the battery, the Nokia 8800 mobile phone, all that I can recommend that you have something luxurious that not everyone has. It speaks very much for this phone. But is also looking for the moment a device that is only on special occasions and weekends in operation.
