It's time to retire my beautiful and bouncy (2005) Nokia 3220. Is the unlocked Pre or 2 a crazy choice in 2015? Tx in advance!

Yes it is, HP is going to turn off the server support and account management so is going to render the pre2 almost unusable... Great device though

While I like the Pre 2 because it's simple and easy to use (and I still use it), I would not purchase it again. Apps are available but do not seem as plentiful as the ones offered from Apple of Windows. My suggestion would be to research it a little more than relying on the answers given here.

I had a Pre and then a Pre2 for years. Absolutely, loved them, but, the operating system is no longer supported, so, started having issues. It broke my heart to change from them. I hope the HP will re-introduce them to the market place with modern upgrades, as, I would get one the minute they re-appear. Sorry to send you bad news, but, you should, maybe, choose something else.

The Tungsten series were the last of the PDA's with Tungsten E being the first and TX being the last. On smart-phones, the Treo 650 was the last to have the Palm operating system. The Treo 700 and later having the window os which IMO was more confusing. My wife and I both use the Tungsten E2 (enough upgrade over the E to make it very worthwhile and definitely a huge upgrade over the Zire 150) and we have never had a problem. Also, don't disregard the used ones on Amazon (some as low as 15 dollars), we have always had good luck on the used ones, just make sure that you at least get one with a stylus, usb charging cable, and good battery.

Is it good? - depends for who. For a teenager or a 20/30 year old; someone who's had smartphones before. The answer is no, it's not good enough because it's slow and outdated. Is it unlocked; if you buy it from Amazon directly, then yes it's unlocked. If you buy it from someone else; it may or may not be unlocked. I have T-Mobile and for my wife the phone works, is sufficient; but she only uses it for calls or SMS, no data. I played around on home WiFi with the internet and I was not happy with the performance. Bottom line is, if you are looking for a basic smartphone and you are on T-Mobile or AT&T; network and all you do is call or text, then this phone is for you. Is it good? - depends for who.

my old phone was a Nokia 6010 which ATT called a gophone in 2004. my sim was from a newer phone but same kind. i dont know what a gophone is now or whether yours has the same sim. but mine worked and its a nice little phone.

Good day, upon receiving the phone, the first thing done was connect it to my PC, and open the Nokia Software Updater for Retail 4.1 program, they scan the phone, and upgrade the operating system to the most recent phone without any problem. My advice is that if you buy a Nokia phone with Windows Phone on your PC download such software, and update your phone before you give use. I hope to help you. Thank you.

Never too late. I might replace my current (boring) mobile with this one. Also, your suggestion will be helpful to others. Thank you.

@T.PatrickYou are right. I was wrong about the US version. The v40 firmware was introduced in January for many international versions but not for the US versions. Bottom line right now is (as I mentioned before) its a matter of personal preference if you like the black with a silver stripe on the sides or chrome trim around the screen. They are both good phones.

It clearly says it is AT&T--GSM phone, you can only go by what the seller advertises. As an Amazon Prime order--Amazon will make it right if not as advertised. *Call the seller to make sure there is a warranty for what ever phone you buy if important to you. This is my wife's phone and she very satisfied with it. Storage is on the short side with only 8GB of memory and no SD slot for more. The long promised WP 8.1 update would modernize this 2012 phone but has not been released for this phone--if ever but has for Nokia phones. You may want to consider the Nokia Lumia 820 or 920 which can be updated to WP8.1, the 820 at $170 and 920 at about $210.

Hi Wei, Good question No the Lumia 1020 I am selling is not unlocked. I am working towards that goal though. If I am successful I will update the posting and also let you know directly. Thanks

You can only use it with providers that take the old style sim card. I wouldn't waste my money on this phone if i was you. there are much better options out there. The phone has more cons than pros. If you wanna waste your money thats fine. when i had this phone it was cool for a little bit but it was just to outdated and the battery really sucks. good luck you really gonna need it if you go with this phone. If you want a good old style phone go with the nokia brick.

I bought the phone 2 years ago. At the time I was getting ready to retire from the US to Thailand. I needed an unlocked phone, that uses sim cards and ran on the GSM system. At that time AT&T; ran on CDMA. So I had to switch to T MOBILE (GSM) Not sure, but I think those 2 companies merged. That might have changed things there. Please check in an AT&T; store to get the right answer. Since I am here in Thailand I am no longer "in the know". Hope that helps.

It depends which 810 you purchased. Some are "unlocked," meaning you can use it with the service provider of your choice, but some are "locked" to a particular service provider (i.e. T Mobile). I actually paid a little more for an "unlocked" 810. But perhaps if you contact Nokia, they can tell you how to unlock it.

Yes. This is my favorite phone ever! Only problem was that the touchscreen suddenly stopped working. Both lasted about a year, but they were also used from ebay, so I'm not sure how old they were or how well cared for. I'm going to get another, though!

Get it. I bought mine a year ago (on Amazon), Palm finally got it RIGHT in a big way with the Pre3. Sadly, Palm then went belly up so the Pre3 now says HP. Not to worry; it's a great phone. The slide keyboard is the best I've ever used, and I have big fingers. I'm faster one handed with this than two handed with a touch screen. The gesture system is elegant and simple once you learn it, and again, works one handed. It IS small, so If you want a lot of games or gorgeous big screen, it's not for you; but for a fast phone/text appliance which feels nice and sips easily into your pocket, it is the best. Skinomi makes a good screen protector; get one, otherwise, forget about protective cases, the thing is very sturdy. The OS is stable, have no problems. You can get email on the phone, but HP seems to have quit providing backup for Address book. No problem; use your carrier's backup service; also Microsoft (Live, Outlook, Hotmail) works well.
