Amazon.com Product Description
If you need a simple, no-frills phone that keeps you in touch, the Nokia 1600 deserves a serious look. This compact, lightweight candybar phone features a color screen with 65K colors, 20 polyphonic ringtones, MP3 ringtone capability, icon-based phonebook, and speaking clock with alarm. It's the perfect complement to a Net10 prepaid wireless account. 
The candybar-styled Nokia 1600 offers long battery life, with up to 5.5 hours of talk time and 18 days of standby. | Net10 Service
The Net10 pay-as-you-go wireless service offers all local, long distance and roaming calls at one low price of 10 cents per minute. All Net10 prepaid wireless service is provided by TracFone Wireless--America's #1 prepaid wireless company with a national footprint covering 99 percent of the U.S. population. There are no contracts, credit checks, monthly fees, security deposits, activation or deactivation charges, or age restrictions. All Net10 handsets have a display that shows the actual airtime balance on the phone's display for ease of tracking usage. Net10 handsets also carry an "instant refill" feature that allows users to add airtime directly from the handset on a real-time basis. Key digital features include free call waiting, free caller ID, free voicemail and text messaging at 5 cents per message. Phone Features
At first, the 1600 looks like a mild-mannered candybar phone. Looks can be deceiving, though. The 96 x 68 pixel display, which features support for 65K colors, gives the user a crystal clear screen, which makes it easy to type text messages and place calls. An internal antenna means there's nothing to snag in your pocket. The simplified menu and navigation with 4-way scroll key and easy-to-use key pad make for easier phone calls and text messaging. The 1600's address book can store multiple phone numbers, as well as physical and email addresses. Meanwhile, the phone's built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear. Polyphonic ringtones are included, as is a vibrating alert. Ringer IDs let you assign specific ringtones to particular callers. The 1600 is a natural mobile messaging companion with support for text and picture messaging. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users. Other features include: - Stores up to 200 contact entries (plus 250 stored on SIM card)
- Full color-display, screensavers and wallpaper
- Store up to 60 SMS text messages
- Full duplex speakerphone
- Reminders
- Headset jack
- Changeable faceplates

 Awesome Deal! April 5, 2010
A. Tweedle (Jupiter, FL, USA)
Great phone for a great low price. The Net10 prepaid service is impressive as well. Just 10 cents/minute and 3 cents/text - including long distance nationwide calls! It even won the JD Power award for "best no-contract experience". I got mine off of Amazon for an awesome price. Switching to prepaid is saving me so much, it really is a wonderful deal.
 Nokia 1600 March 29, 2010
J. Miller
If you don't want a ton of bells & whistles, or any at all, this is a very good, handy, functional phone. There are adequate adjustmnets for the features it does have and the sound quality for conversations is the best of the 3 or 4 phones I have used. Its really easy to use you can figure out anything you don't know without resorting to reading the manual. And its so inexpesive!
It seems to have good reception getting bars in remote areas where some other phones I've used would not show any. The battery life between charges is excellent even for basic phones without cameras, big screens, music players, etc. I can go for days without charging even if talk on it a lot every day. I used this exact model 1600 for years and never a problem, even though I didn't exactly pamper it. I had to replace only because I lost it. I first bought an LG 300 series but besides sounding crappy there were too many other problems to mention. Thank Goodness! I was able to find another Nokia 1600 here at Amazon.

I absolutely love this phone!! Especially Net10 has been great to me. There is this thing called the Net10 unlimited where without a contract you literally have unlimited texting, minutes, and web browsing. Plus I love the phone! The Net 10 bundles are great because they can be used for international calling and Purchase of Data calling.
The most basic phone on the market October 27, 2009

I owned this phone for 2 years before finally upgrading. It is the most basic phone I have ever run across. 2 years ago I got it in a pinch because I was so ready to dump AT&T that I grabbed the cheapest phone i could find. I never dreamed I would keep it for 2 years. I guess the main reason I did hold onto it was because I really never had any real issues with it. True, it won't show the time and your remaining minutes on the screen at the same time (one or the other) and the alarm feature stunk (1 of every 2 times I set the alarm it went off at some randomn time waking me up at 2:12 in the morning... don't count on the alarm, it surely doesn't work very well. And all this time I thought it was maybe a malfunction of my phone, but it sounds like other people had the same trouble). Otherwise it's pretty decent. The sound quality is good, the reception is spot on- even 2 floors underground in a parking gararge. It's cheap, and with 300 minutes, it's actually free. So you can't go wrong, IF, you don't want much out of a phone.
Basic Phone Service. September 2, 2009
Roberto Vitale (Orlando, FL USA)
It works well for the price. Consider it for just basic phone use. Forget about customer service. It stinks!. However, calls and gets calls for a modest price. That is it.
