Good basic phone. No camera, bluetooth, etc, but for the price this shouldn't be expected. Big display, some nice features, e.g. stop clock, torch, weight converter. Light and slim and battery life is good. On the minus side it has two big problem... more »

The Nokia 1661 is pleasant to handle, a solidly made, basic mobile phone. Ringtones are clear and plentiful, screen is bright and it has an fm radio and the display is easily customised for easy viewing. Phone book numbers stand out bright and cle... more »

The 1661 is a nice phone for its value. It runs S30 software. It lacks advanced functionality such as Bluetooth or a camera, but it has colour screen and a radio. Its interface is easy to use and although its keys feel a little cranky, writing mes... more »
