Good Points

Nice solid phone, best nokia flip yet, steel casing.


Bad Points

Push to talk not supported yet, but on the phone. Lack of features. Not many tones on this one.


General Comments

Well now as for this phone there are some good features like SMS counter "counts sent and received messages". Pictures are very good, you have a zoom on this to, but picture gets very bad when zooming to close. Video has come up market now you can record more than 10 seconds. No MMC card, so you are stuck with what memory you have on it. Can set pictures to phonebook and picture will show when they call you. Also when in a call, you have a menu to record the call, very good when your mates say I didn't say that and you have them on your phone. Battery is much thinner, than the ones used in the Nokia 6600, I find the battery is not as good as my nokia 6600, but the 6170 has got 2 colour screens to power up. The screen savers are not that well, as you cannot find these for this phone yet. No MP3, Bluetooth, radio, MMC, advanced features to this phone. I like the style of this phone, Why didn't nokia make this phone with 3G or even symbian 60 OS. I wouldn't get yourself in a 12 month contract with this phone if you're a feature freak, like I am. I find that if you have the feature answer when flip is opened is not good, as you open it and you get a loud ring in your ear, because I'm very quick at flipping and putting to my ear, maybe something nokia should think about this next time. I hope this has helped you.
