I really liked this phone because it was easy to use and complicated at all. It includes all the right features and not a lot of extra bells and whistles for those it want just a few extras but not over done.

Broke within a few months with regular use.

This phone has many design flaws. One, its large center button takes one directly to the internet, so without a data plan you WILL be charged with data charges. Second, there are many shortcuts that are not included, especially a speed dial feature. The address book can only add two numbers to a single contact. The texting system is bittersweet. It gives a word preview option, which is nice, but one of the "select word" buttons is also the "send" button, so when texting quickly it can lead to blanks and incomplete messages. It also uses European English, which is certainly a pain considering its miniscule dictionary memory.
TL;DR If you want to use this phone regularly and for anything other than calling a few people, do NOT buy it.

Like, not love it
15 years ago
I upgraded for free this phone to replace my -still working- Nokia 2610 of 6 years. I like simple, "candybar" phones. In addition to receiving and making phonecalls with my F160, I have: taken pictures with the camera, text messaged, updated my status on facebook, and played the demo of Scrabble. Haven't done the music yet. I have to plug in the phone every other night if low use. It charges quickly.
Let me tell you what I LIKE about it first:
-Size. It still fits in my pocket. Not as small as the Nokia 2610, though.
-It enables special characters for texting in Spanish, French...(á, ñ, etc.).
-It takes pretty acceptable pictures given the right light/subject circumstances.
-Can send and receive photos and video messages.
-You can check simple fb notifications and update status.
-It has several alarms.
-With bluetooth, I can transfer my photos or vids to my desktop, without the need of cables! Woohoo!
Now, what I DON'T LIKE:
-Vibration mode is barely noticeable, even when phone is in my pant pocket, so I've missed important calls. For example, I was at ER with my baby, and had the phone in vibration mode, and never felt it.
-Can't customize the time of sound profiles. For example, I used to program my old phone how long it was going to be muted while I gave a guided tour at my job, then it went back to vibration or default ring. With this one, I can't time the sound profiles, and it messes me up if I forget to set it back to "normal"...for example, next day the alarm will be silent!
-It does not have emoticons!! Can you believe it? I cannot send my husband happy faces or kisses. :(
-Text messaging default setting is the word prompter (or whatever it is called), which is annoying. Can't customize to be simple texting, so every time I text, have to go to options and change the setting. Time wasted! Annoying!
-The middle button, if pressed by mistake, takes you online.
-To unlock the phone, you have to press any button, then 2 more buttons. In the dark, or in a hurry, multiply that by 2 or 3.
-It does not have a timer. I used it everyday at work.
-Can't customize font/font color of main display.
-The camera CANNOT be silent!! The only options are a loud old school snapshot, a child saying "say cheese!", or a group of kids saying: "1, 2, 3". I cannot take pics of my napping baby (wakes him up right away) or in church/museums.
-The navigation through the different features is somewhat complicated. I have to try several times before I get to where I wanted to get to.
-It does not have a to-do's list, tasks or notes. Huh? Only calendar with "meeting", "memo", and "anniversary"...only allowing alarm on meeting. Huh?
I would've stayed with my Nokia 2610 if it weren't for:
-The screen, which is starting to fade as well as it has a small crack. I still use it for an alarm.
-I realize that there are almost none candybar phones out there that are only keys (and not touch screen) and that does not require a data plan.
Prosspeaker, battery life
Yes, I recommend this product.
