Strengths: Small, the weight gives a luxuary feeling, anti-scratch screen, comes with the desk stand charger, 2 batteries, handsfree, CD, and a pouch.
Weakness: Battery life, Tri-band, small buttons that take some time to get used to.
It is the most solid phone I've ever came across. no cracks, or squeaky at all. The slide mechanism gives you a fantastic feeling when sliding open. Some people might find its weight to be a weakness, but I find it to be a strength; it really gives you a good feeling of an expensive phone not just a cheap plastic phone (hence, Vertu phones are even heavier). If you do not like to carry a heavy...
Strengths: Well designed, sleek phone. The LCD screen is brigher even in direct sunlight. Amazes all my friends
Weakness: Costly, small keys, Normal Batter life and Normal Reception
Cost makes most of the people to double think to go with this mobile. I had used razor for 1 year and Nokia 8801 is better when compared to v3 razor in both Signal Reception and also battery.
Strengths: Small, heavy, anti-scratch crystal, good design, good graphics, impressive look, free software from Nokia website
Weakness: Weak battery, possibility of overcharging, small buttons, impossibility to create shortcuts with "Call Log", "Setting" and other functions, not displaying current timer while calling
I purchased Nokia 8801 a month ago. The design is awesome but it takes time to get used to manage pressing buttons. I seazed my calling habbits because I was afraid to drop this heavy phone. To prevent its surface from fingerprints I keep it in the little case which swipes it every time I put it in or take it out.
Strengths: Great industrial design; the phone is gorgeous to look at and hold. It is really a great accessory for the fashion conscious that still want a device with the latest technology.
Weakness: No direct way to access the phone for contacts, calendar and task item transfer; the unit has Bluetooth, but does not come with a USB cable. No expansion slot for memory.
Overall a nice phone but still overpriced for the high profile business user or even working CEO; again, if style is more important than substance then this is the phone for you (outside of the ridiculously expensive Vertu phones). The lack of a cable really makes it such that you would need another device to trade off when you needed to get some work done or even communicate with colleagues or...
Strengths: Look superb and impress a lot of my friends
Weakness: 8801 works only in US and Canada and the 8800 work world wide but not supported in US. Battery life is the worst I ever seen on a phone
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...
Strengths: Looks, screen resolution, camera, stylish, protective keypad
Weakness: Battery life , too heavy, too expensive (don´t pay more than $650), headset volume, bad reception.
Overall it´s a good phone but you can buy a Nokia 6230 for half and will have a better phone with removable memory card and better battery life. The nokia 8801 on the 850mhz Frecuency have a bad reception and even ask me for my SIM PIN.
Strengths: Quality of construction, appearance, ease of use, call quality
Weakness: Battery life, small keys require getting used to but no big deal.
If you want a cell phone to use as a phone and not a jack-of-all-trades device, this is the best there is. I think it looks better than any of the Vertus that I have seen and it does what I want it to, make and receive cell phone calls clearly and reliably.
Strengths: Awesome Looks, Superior Build-quality, Two-year Warranty, Expedited Support w/ overnight replacement guarantee
Weakness: Battery life, Non-expandable Memory, Voice level, Miniature buttons
I got the phone last week.. I must say that, there's a readon why it still lists for $650 on Nokia's site . It looks like a piece of modern art, built like a tank and comes w/ a full 2-year warranty from Nokia along w/ a "special 800#" JUST for 8801 users. They'll even overnight u a new phone, if something goes wrong under warranty. The display rivals that of a mini laptop. The Phone has MP3...

This luxury cell phone offers an impressive design and good battery life, but it doesn't come cheap.

Nokia 8801 Cellular Phone
Strengths: Sleek, Eye catching design, Sturdy and durable, Fairly exclusive, Awesome screen, Nokia reliability
Weakness: Headset volume sometimes too low, Keys are very tight, Features lacking given price, Battery life
--First of all, let me say that people that are interested in this phone should do their research prior to purchasing. I liken it to buying a Porsche/Jaguar over a Toyota/Honda. The premium price you're going to have to shell out is not going to guarantee all the features and reliability of the Toyota/Honda, but you'll know you have something fairly exclusive and eye-catching in your hands. The...
