Review Centre Reviews

The Nokia 6600 scores highly with our reviewers who rate it highly, mainly for ease of use, value for money. The quality of its camera facility tends to score highly too as does its music and video playback, excellent screen quality, durability and the good choice of available software. Efficient battery and signal strength are mentioned.

Although the overwhelming number of our reviewers recommend this phone a handful have identified it to be too slow for their needs. Some reviewers find it bulky and un-ergonomic compared to other mobiles.
