The Nokia 1100 (and a closely-related variant, the Nokia 1101) is a durable ultrabasic mobile phone produced by Nokia with a 96 x 65 monochrome screen. It is targeted towards developing countries, those who are on a budget, and users who do not require advanced features beyond making calls and SMS text messages, alarm clock, reminders, etc.

The 1100 is similar to the now unavailable 5110/3210/3310 models that were among the most popular cell phones in the world a few years ago before handsets developed several new features such as cameras, polyphonic ringtones and colour screens.

[edit] Features

  • The 1100 features a built-in flashlight - activated by pressing the "c" key twice when the keypad is unlocked.
  • The 1100 and 1101 are able to play only monophonic ringtones, which can be selected from the list of 36 pre-installed ring tones or from the 7 self-composed ones.
  • It features Nokia's traditional-style navigational keypad, which uses a single button to connect and end calls, bi-directional keys and vibrating alert. It can be customized with a range of coloured covers.

[edit] Use

Cell phone customers in developed countries in North America, Western Europe etc. who do not want advanced functions can buy unlocked 1100 handsets on eBay or in independent cell phone shops, insert their SIM card and use them as normal. Its battery, the Nokia BL-5C, has a long standby and talk time - this battery is used in more advanced models that have increased power needs for their features, but in the basic 1100 it consumes a fraction of the power and therefore lasts much longer between charges. The 1100 is offered for use with a wide range of mobile phone networks throughout the world. The 1101 model also includes support for the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP).
