This phone was bought for my step duaghter, who is 14 years old. Her father and i decided, that she could have one, after listening to a year of moaning, because we kept saying, she was too young.
We didn't want to spend an absolute fortune on a first phone, but she wanted a Nokia. As far as i am aware, they no longer make this phone, due to all the new ones being mass produced. We had a bit of trouble getting our hands on one, but in the end we managed.
This phone, is very sturdy and practical. Compared to others, you might think it a little bulky, and a little heavier. Don't let this put you off.
The keya are easily acsessible and nicely spaced out. This helps when text messaging, as i find on other phones i tend to ctach the wrong key. It doesn't happen with this one though.
The Phones Features.

*Clock. Here you can set the clock, date and alarm.
*Tones. Here you can select your ring tone, adjust volume, select from ringing, discreet and loud, switch your warning tones on or off, and adjust your game tones.
This phone will accept logos. Providing more than just a blank screen to look at. You can only have one at one, but you can change them as much as you like.
I also like the touch of a welcome note. When you first switch your phone on, a note appears. You can change it ant time you like. We put merry christmas on it for our daughter.
I like this phone. It is practical and still offers more for the younger generation. Saying this, it would suit anyone of any age. If you are looking for a first phone, i would recommend this one. The instruction manual is easy to read and understand, and although there is a lot to take in, it is very easy to use.
You can also buy facias for this phone. Front ones only though.
Flashing ariels are also available for this phone.

This was my first mobile phone and i still have it, 4 years on. I love it. My partner wanted me to have his old Nokia 3210 but I dont want to part with my 5110

To tell you the truth, I would rather have one of the older, more reliable phones than some of the new ones. Good Op :o)
