Nokia 8250 review

Network and connections

For a model from the early 2000s, introduced by the Finnish company Nokia, the 8250 cell phone is well equipped in terms of networks and connections. In fact, it is a Dual Band GSM, operating on frequencies of 900 and 1800 Mhz with coverage therefore extended only to the European continent, however it does not integrate a Wap browser and therefore makes it impossible to access Internet resources. The only other connection is the IrDa infrared port.

A gray structure and an included cover are the main aesthetic characteristics of the Nokia 8250, a single-body cell phone with integrated antenna. The weight of the device is relatively contained, 81 grams, while the height is 102.5 millimeters, the width is 45 millimeters and the depth is 19 millimeters. The total volume is 69 cc.
