Summary: Worst Cell Phone I've ever owned
Comment: This Phone is awful. Short battery life, and an inaudible incoming call ring. Don't purchase it, I would not recommend this to anyone even my worst enemy.

Summary: Nokia Rules
Comment: I like the fact that when the phone rings, you don't jump out of your skin, or have to apologize as you rush to put the phone on vibrate. The clarity of reception just cannot be beat, and the simplicity of the phone appeals to me in this age of excess gadgetry on phones. I blame Verizon for not offering better Nokia selections. If there was better T-Mobile coverage in my area, I would definitely switch because of their Nokia phone selection. But this is a nice phone and I have it vibrate as well as ring so I can catch it in the car as I listen to tunes.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Less than mediocre phone
Comment: I've had this phone about a year, after having an LG phone for 2 years. I bought it because I work in secure facilities that do not allow cameras, and this was the only phone Verizon had that did not have a camera.

Pros:
-call quality is pretty decent
-no complaint about coverage
-small package
-decent construction

Cons:
-the menu structure is horrible, and simple features like SILENT mode require you to dig through menus to find them - to make the phone useable, I had to create a user menu and put all the important features in there
-I miss quite a few calls because I can't hear the phone ring in my shirt pocket
-when dialing a number, I can wait as long as 15 or 20 seconds before I hear a ring on the other end
-I routinely get voice messages, but the phone never rang in the first place, and there was no 'missed call' in the call record
-there is an array of funky little icons that come and go - I've had the phone for a year and I still can't tell you what they all mean, in spite of referring to the manual more than a few times
-simple features like the calculator stink, and are almost unusable
-the power connector is proprietary. I lost my charger on a recent trip, so I went to Target to get a replacement - they had one for 'Nokia - All Models'; Sorry, not for this one.

The bottom line is that if you just need a phone for an occasional call, this phone is probably OK. If you are like me and you make your living on your phone, this is not the phone for you. I wish I had my 3 year old LG back.

Summary: okay phone ruined by serious flaw
Comment: I bought the Nokia 2366i to replace a 3 year old Samsung sch a650. I'm a truck driver and use my cell phone a lot. And I ran my old Samsung into the ground. Never a great phone, but a somewhat solid ol' workhorse nonetheless. It finally broke in two on me - literally.

But what a big mistake my recent Nokia 2366i replacement purchase was. I cannot hear the incoming call ringer. On the very highest setting it is extremely difficult to notice an incoming call. I've tried all ringer settings on the highest possible level. No satisfaction. I guess the best solution to this problem is to make a habit of picking up the phone every 10 minutes or so to determine whether a call has come in. Or just simply get another phone - which is what I plan to do.

What I percieve to be an overall solid, functional phone is ruined by such a simple glitch. What they were thinking when they released this product is beyond me.

Hope this review helps.

Summary: Needs a louder external speaker
Comment: This phone is a nice basic flip phone in all respects except one. I cannot hear it ringing unless it is in my hand already. I usually carry it in my purse and end up missing all my calls. Yes, I have tried different ring tones and have turned up the volume all the way, but it is still too quiet. Unless you live and work in a bank vault, stay away from this phone!

Editorial Reviews:

Simple features and easy-to-use functions are all you need to stay connected, and that's what the Nokia 2366i delivers. The phone features an English or Spanish user interface, Bluetooth technology, a speakerphone, an external display, an FM radio, voice dialing, and more.

Design
Flip open the 2366i to reveal its clear and bright 128 x 160 full-color screen. A supplementary display on the front cover of the device can display call information, date, time of day, battery and signal strength, and more. A handy 5-way navigation key on the button pad provides access to most of the phones menus and functions. Keys on the left side control call volume, and the top right side of the phone houses the antenna. Lastly, a charging port is placed on the lower edge of the unit.

Calling Features
The 2366i can store up to 250 contacts for quick and easy management of phone numbers and email addresses. The phone comes with built-in polyphonic ringtones, while more ringtones can be downloaded from Verizon's Get It Now service. When keeping a low profile is a must, use the 2366i's vibrating alert for discreet management of incoming calls. Lastly, use the speakerphone, or the phone's Bluetooth capability and connect with a wireless headset to talk handsfree.

Messaging, Internet, and Tools
Sending messages with text is a snap with the 2366i. 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.

A number of handy software tools are bundled with the 2366i including a to-do list, a calculator, a calendar, a notepad, a voice memo recorder, a stopwatch, and an alarm clock.

Imaging and Entertainment
As mentioned, the 2366i is fully capable of sending and receiving text messages. You can receive sports scores, traffic, weather reports, news, and even your horoscope via text alerts (additional Verizon messaging charges apply). Meanwhile, the phone's two embedded games can turn down time into fun time. Lastly, use the phone's fifteen built-in wallpapers to dress up the phone to suit your tastes.

Vital Statistics
The Nokia 2366i weighs 3.70 ounces and measures 3.20 x 1.69 x 0.94 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 3.93 hours of digital talk time, and up to 312 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the 850/1900 MHz CDMA frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

Note: The Nokia 2366i supports most handsfree devices. It does not support all Bluetooth object transfer (OBEX) profiles
