 I was disappointed.... April 2, 2008
6 out of 19 found this review helpful
I realize that this was a free phone, but for a 4 MP camera phone, the camera on this phone is crappy. And that's putting it mildly (severely grainy texture).
The calculator on the phone is not user-friendly at all and the alarm is pitiful; you can't even change the alarm tone volume!
If you value camera quality and ease of use, DON'T GET THIS PHONE! I got it for free as an upgrade and I *still* want my money back...

Our latest customer loyalty freebie phones from AT&T (Cathy's is pink, mine is black), the Nokia 6085 delivers the goods. It's also free to new customers who sign up at AT&T's website for two years of service.
The main screen is nearly as sharp as a flat panel PC display, the lighted keypad has honest-to-jeebus keys with big numerals and letters, and the wireless performance exceeds AT&T's own signal strength maps. Sound quality, both speaking and listening, is on a par with a decent wired phone connection.
The mini display font could be a bit bigger. Perhaps a future software update will take care of this as there are plenty of unused pixels when the phone is idle. Alternatively, the phone can display an analog or a large digital clock between calls but no other information like signal strength, battery condition and the carrier's name.
At first glance it looks bigger than, say, a Motorola V220 phone, but the V220's nubby antenna makes it about an eighth of an inch longer overall. Opened, the 6085 is a nice fit for big shovel hands like mine but not too big for daintier extremities. The black model is trimmed with a soft-grip material that lessens the chance of the phone squirting out of your grasp.
2G EDGE wireless technology makes the occasional download much faster than on older phones. If you plan on doing a lot of wireless web surfing (we don't), either choose one of the current refurbished 3G handsets or wait for the next freebie offering, when new 3G phones should be a lot more common. AT&T ships the phone with a 3G SIM card, but that doesn't turn it into a 3G phone.
Bluetooth is built in, a good thing for Mac owners because AT&T doesn't include the USB cable. With a little free open-source software like GIMP and Audacity, you can create your own graphics and ringtones and pocket the savings. $2.49 for a ringtone? Fer pity's sake, I can buy the whole song from Amazon.com or iTunes for 99 cents or less!
The camera and music features might be important to some folks, but we already own a couple iPods. The camera's 640 by 480 image quality is reminiscent of the regrettable Kodak DISC camera, grain and all. Without adding memory via a MicroSD card, you can only record 6 seconds of video. Remember, this is essentially a free phone, whether you're a new or loyal customer, so you get what you didn't pay for.
Oh, and did I mention it can play Yahtzee (which you purchase from AT&T's MediaMall)? For a couple of Yahtzee fans, that was the clincher.
 Piece of Junk February 24, 2008

Bought 3 days ago and the outer mini-screen has already failed. AT&T claims it's due to physical damage and refuses to replace.
Although the phone and inner screen still work, I seriously question the longevity and durability of this phone.
Because of this, I would advise buyers not to buy this phone!
The Best Phone I've Ever Had!!! February 20, 2008
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
I've owned this phone for about three months now and I love it. The battery life is superb and I use my phone all day long, mainly for the mp3 player. I love the fact that you can use your bluetooth headset with the mp3 player. I get great phone service and I haven't had a dropped call yet. I rarely use the camera and video settings because I have a great camera that also shoots video with sound, but it's nice to have just in case I need it. I love this phone so much that I plan to purchase one for my sister for her birthday. With an added SD memory card you can store loads of pix, video and music. You are also able to spice up the look of the phone with various snap on cases.
Anyone looking for a decent phone with little extras should not sleep on the Nokia 6085. I highly recommend that you give this phone a try!!
Nokia 6085 Is A Nice Phone January 19, 2008

I upgraded to Nokia 6085 from a Motorola v557. I wasn't having any problems with my Motorola v557, I just wanted to upgrade to a newer model phone. I love the looks and the size of the Nokia 6085. I also love the clarity of the sound volume, the battery life, and the ease of using it. The one small thing I don't like is that the display light on the front of the cover is not bright enough. Other than that it is a perfect phone. Some people complain that the phone has a bulky size, but that is not at all true. It's not razor thin, but it is not bulky. It's a perfect size.
