1 Star ReviewFlashy and nothing else
Strengths: Look superb and impress a lot of my friends
Weaknesses: 8801 works only in US and Canada and the 8800 works world wide but not supported in US. Battery life is the worst I ever seen on a phone
Summary: I’ve own the 8801 for a month and it a big deception to find out that my $700 Nokia won’t work in Asia or Europe because it does not have the 900 band. I call Nokia to express my concern and they told me that I can buy the 8800 witch will work any where but it is not supported or warranty in US. I finally decided to return it and buy a Motorola Razr v3 even though I’ve always owned a Nokia till now. I think the 8801 or 8800 is a big flashy joke that has drove me away from the brand.

I would advise nobody to buy this phone unless you need to let your neighbors know that you own a $700 phone. But if I was you neighbor, I know that you are dump enough to pay for a 5 stars hotel room with no bed in it for you to sleep on. I had waited for that phone a while but what a deception.

Strengths: BlueTooth Version 1.2, which allows 3G GPRS connectivity for laptops, pda, etc.
Weaknesses: small buttons, no external memory slots
Summary: The 8800, and I stress 8800 only, is simply designed for the senses. I have been using it since September 2005, and it has not gone out of style or obsolete. Heavy Duty, build to last. The anti-scratch glass screen remains crystal clear, the text on the bottons never wear off, the push up design maintains integrity as it was from day one. Best of all, I can connect my laptop to the internet via blue tooth, just turn on GPRS on the phone, and I can browse at DSL speed on the laptop. Sure beats finding a starbucks with ISP.
