With a color screen, built-in games, and changeable faceplates, the Nokia 2126 is a stylish companion that will keep you talking on the go. Compact and easy to use, the 2126 is the perfect complement to Tracfone prepaid wireless service.

Design
The phone features a candy bar design with a 96 x 65 color display and an internal antenna. Most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a center toggle on the control pad. You can also choose from optional, interchangeable faceplates to dress up the 2126 to match your style or mood. A standard hands-free headphone jack is provided.

Calling Features
The 2126's built-in address book can store up to 200 contacts for quick and easy management of phone numbers. Choose from up to 34 built-in ringers, plus 5 additional, downloadable ringtones. There's also a vibrating alert for when you want to be discreet. The 2126 ships with a number of handy Tracfone services, including free voice mail, free caller ID, and free call waiting. And perhaps most importantly, the integrated TracFone Airtime Balance Display shows you how much airtime you've used and how much is left, so you can control your costs.

Messaging and Tools
If you need basic messaging capabilities, the 2126 has you covered as support is built-in for sending and receiving SMS text messages. T9 text entry, a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built-into the unit-- a plus for text messaging users.

Service good, phone poor.......2007-06-12

Two separate comments on the phone and the service.

1) The Phone

I bought this phone, but am going to toss it. The screen display is very small (I've got old eyes, alas) and cannot be read without activating the backlight (unless you use direct sunlight). Another problem is that it doesn't have an extendable antenna for when things get marginal. I went back to the klutzier but better featured Nokia 2285 (available straight from tracfone for $9 plus shipping).

2) Tracfone Service

I have been using a TracFone for several years now. I use it for those times when I'm away from hone and need to stay in contact. I do not use too many hours since it can be rather expensive; however, for my purposes I can get this service for about $100 a year. The minimal service available from a pay-as-you-go cellphone is 2-3 times this much. If I need to yak on the road, I use a prepaid calling card and a regular phone (5 cents/minute versus the cheapest tracfone roaming charge of 20 cents/minute or double that if you don't buy a minute doubling card). For folks who really want to yak on the cell, you'll probably be better off finding a cheaper, traditional cell service.

okay.......2007-05-05

I purchased my 2126 over a year ago and it has done its job well. The only downer is the site, tracfone, which "offers" ringtones but in almost every area of the us I've had a phone in, they cite it "coming soon!"

It's compact for easy use and for those who can't afford much more due to limited incomes, the phone is better than nothing. It offers several nice ringtones with it as well as colorful wallpapers, but no real individuality. There are claims of the faceplate being changable, but, they do not HAVE any other plates to change it to, which is in my eyes somewhat false advertising.
In fact, half of tracfones promises are false leading since you can't acquire half of what they promise.

Tracfone is fine in a pinch or if you're low on money (can't get credit for a phone plan too!) and use it solely for traveling/emergency phone on the road. Beyond that, if you can afford or are able to get a phone plan (like T-Mobile/Verizon if they're available in your area) do so. Tracfone can tend to be more costly than others out there for less service.

Robbed!!!.......2007-02-16

I have owned a Tracfone for 3 years with OK service which included lots of "no service" areas across the US. This month they stopped serving my Nokia phone without notifying me. After trying to use the phone I called their customer service tech reps and after 1 solid hour on the phone they told me that due to age they were no longer servicing that phone. I will have to buy a new phone and a $20 activation card before they will transfer my 852.5 minutes (worth $130) to the new phone.
Their service reps are from Columbia and Bolivia and they hung up on me twice when I insisted on talking to someone from the US.
I don't want to purchase a new phone plus 20 minutes and then have them cancel my service again???

Great Basic phone.......2007-01-11

This is a great basic phone with a bright color screen and preloaded screen savers and wallaper. Tracfone is one of the better prepaid options for someone who doesn't talk that much with a cell (not more than a couple of hours per month). I used this phone briefly before switching to a plan with more of discount for more hours of use per month. If anyone needs an essentially new (no scratches) Nokia 2126 with all of the original accessories and open packaging for twenty plus shipping, please email movieshop(at)hotmail(dot)com .

Tracfone Customer Service is terrible.......2006-12-19

I've owned a Tracfone for 3 years. My old Tracfone quit working, so I purchased a new one. I've been trying for 4 weeks to transfer my old phone number to my new Tracfone. It's been a nightmare-after 4 weeks, 3 new sim cards, and countless calls to TracFone customer service reps, I've accomplished nothing. My phone is still not activated, I still don't have my old number transfered, and I've wasted 7 hours speaking to customer reps. I don't recommend TracFone.
