Hi,
Where are the phones made? I thought they were made in Finland but I've been looking to buy one on ebay and all the buyers I ask tell me they are made in China. Whats the deal with that? Also does the 8GB version have Wifi?
Thanks

All of them have wifi. They're either made by Nokia (Asian) or it's made in Finland (European).

Oh I thought the China made phones were knock-offs. The phones made in Finalnd seem to sell for about $200 more than the China made phones.

Some crazy people around here and other places seem to think that the Made in Finland versions of the phone are of a better build quality than those with the Asian "Made by Nokia" logo (going so far as to actually pay $200 more for one), but it's all myths and lies. No one has any concrete evidence about any of them being made A) in different locations, and B) of varying degrees of build materials and quality.

We're not crazy. We're speaking from experience. My Made by Nokia (India) phone creaks and the hinge is funny. My MIF counter part doesn't have that issue.

Oh boy now I'm really confused.... Maybe I'll keep the Iphone.

Oh trust me, you're crazy. What say you about the Made in Finland N95-3 with the internal hardware and software of a -1? They may be made in different places, but the build quality is the same. Differences are on a handset to handset basis.

Very helpful post. Thanks

So should I buy one on ebay that isn't made in Finland? I'll spend the extra money if I have to but if it doesn't make a difference where the phone is made I would rather save the $200.

Buy it from a reputable seller on eBay or otherwise and don't pay attention to the build. Just go with price and call it a day. It doesn't matter.
