Great Sound, clarity and super easy to use. No complaints. Very Good Battery Life compared to other phones, charges very quickly. very Rugged also.
Crank it up to hear music or speech and it distorts horribly. Very strange phone this, the loudspeaker is terrible. Good features, texting is good, earphones sound ok but overall not a nice phone.
Perhaps mine was a lemon, however based on the other reviews I read, lemons with this model seem to happen fairly often. I also didn't need any of the "sophisticated" features, I only needed a phone that worked well as a phone, and that could text with relative simplicity. I also was having problems with it powering down by itself, or suddenly lighting up--which was very annoying because I use my phone as an alarm clock so all of a sudden I would be awaken by a bright light in my room. I hear Nokia is a generally a good brand, but unfortunately I am a bit scarred after this experience.
I consider myself fairly tech savvy, but I just don't understand why they make simple tasks like setting an alarm for am or pm require an additional 3 button pushes. However, when I got to the store, I let the salesman talk me into this phone, which he said was a better quality, though at a higher price. The sound quality and signal strength were fairly good, but that was dwarfed by the other problems I was having. I went online and saw that almost every review for this phone was negative. I did my homework before going to the store and I had narrowed my decision to 2 phones (an LG and a different model Nokia). I took it home and immediately had problems. Just this afternoon, the vibration miraculously started working, though intermittently, which confirmed to me that I had a defective phone. I also found that the way the operating system on the phone was set up was not very intuitive.
Based on my experience thus far, and the reviews I saw online, I took it back today and got the phone I originally was going to get. I got this phone yesterday and I returned it today. The vibration function did not work, no matter how much I adjusted settings, and the manual was no help. Maybe I just didn't spend enough time getting used to it (though I did spend about 4 hours on it last night trying to figure it out).
Nokia 6555b:-On AT&T Network-A phone with lots of features that you will hate yourself later for buying.>>>Buy the Nokia 6085.
and actually gets hot in my hand when I make a call. This phone has no battery life after 5 p.m. This was his best shot. I am a faithful NOKIA customer, so I didn't even look at other brands in the AT&T store. What a big mistake. SOO frustrating since we have ditched our landlines for our cells--I told the salesman I needed a solid workhorse phone for calls and texts, nothing more.
