I have experienced many faults such as the signals getting cut off frequently (I have to switch off and on to get the signal back), phone goes dead sometimes (not for low battery), the colors on the screen gets weird, the start up once switched on is very slow, etc. Be mindful if anyone wish to buy this phone.

  • i have also same problem..

  • Hello, I have 2 questions about this phone for those of u who used it. 1. The screen light will go out after 8 seconds and you can not change this (standard on phone), but is this also the case if you keep handling the keypad (like when texting)? 2. On the Nokia side they tell you this phone can store 60 text messages and another 60 on your SIM card. This is like almost impossible to understand. I now have a Nokia 6500 slide (witch is an older model) and have over 2500 messages on the phone (never deleted one from the start). Can anybody tell me if this is so? Are there users/ owners of this phone that have over 120 messages on this phone? Please let me know. Many thanks!!!

  • As many comments stands there the signal receiving problem is with this phone. Phone looks smart & it is uncommon. Sometimes it need to be restart due to struck.

  • how much is it??

  • how much is it??

  • It's a good phone.But sum mistakes in there.As example,my phone hasn't powerful Signal range.It's main trouble to me.

  • Bad quality of photographs!

  • It is a not very good model of Nokia, you can not hear very well, and a lot of friends has the same problem. Sometimes it is necessary to restart the phone because if you open the incoming call you don't hear any word. Very weak model of Nokia!!!!

  • the phone is good not bad the problem is with the network u never get good network signal. my phone suddenly dropped signal and now no 1 can fix it i dont know wat to do.showed it to many repairers,but nothing.still same problem phone ios brand new

  • hey guy ...when i plug in the headset into the phone,it seem like it can detect it,and there's a signal blinking on top of my phone(USB image).and then it will show use too much of power please plug it out.............

  • hey guy ...when i plug in the headset into the phone,it seem like it can detect it,and there's a signal blinking on top of my phone(USB image).and then it will show use too much of power please plug it out.............

  • This phone is rock solid! I dropped it so many times and everything is still in working condition.

  • its not that great. taking pics is the only good thing. video quality is not the best! its a 5 mp, but it isnt carl zeiss, which basically makes it a number. not quality. i uploaded a vid to youtube once, i deleted it soon later, the quality is terrible. ok, the phone does have some positives, its light. but seriously speaking, it blacks out automatically, and if listening to music, for example 1 hr straight, probably less, the phone would tell you the headphones uses too much power. lacks wifi, super small screen. but if you like taking pics, and pics only, then itd do! if u video record, ur gonna hate it. the speaking quality on the phone sorta sucks too. im getting an e71 next week, and hopefully that does better. the camera may be a degrade, but im willing to take that! so my verdict, get it if u like taking photos OCCASSIONALLY! as it isnt carl zeiss, and dont get it if thats ur priority!

  • worst

  • My nokia 6600i's screen blanks off often. half of the screen goes blank and sooner or later the other half. i updated the firmware to the latest so far version 36.60. it worked for about a week but right after that it started showing random colours. i cant use the phone now because the screen wont work.. this is very frustrating. i honestly really like the phone's features but i wish it would work. i won't recommend.

  • This is an excellent phone. I've been using this for more than 6 months. I'd recommend this phone who love metallic stuff.

  • this is a very bad quality phone.His speaker have no sound.his camera's picture quality is very poor.so i sagest do not take this phone.

  • Aside from being heavy,sounds are too weak even if i use speaker,secondary camera is not working and picture are not clear.most of all this model is very costly,buy it sr800,can't resell it even at half price, and nokia go day by day back now a black Barry set is now my favorite

  • An excellent phone to use

  • Aside from being heavy,sounds are too weak even if i use speaker,secondary camera is not working and picture are not clear.most of all this model is very costly,buy it sr800,can't resell it even at half price.

  • Its a classic nokia phone, strictly designed for men, i did not come up against with any problems, something which was happening continious with its ancestor. Its generally easy in use and i personally believe that mobiles must have some weight, i hate the very light.

  • can't here it when it rings....way too soft.

  • is there anyone have a problem with headset settings? i cannot use my headset button as next previous or changing radio channels. its like while im listening to radio or music player during i press the button it will prompt a call to latest call log... what a heck? can someone help me???

  • Changed my handset 3 times And updated software to 36.60 and still the camera freezes, have unresponsive buttons, ridiculous 10 second backlight, etc, etc. My provider refuses to accept its a faulty model and will not exchange for another model because of the 28 day rule. And don't get me started on Nokia's 'support'... This was my first Nokia for over 5 years, but this model has sent me straight back to Samsung and Sony Ericsson whose phones seem to work WITHOUT the need for "out of the box" software update after software update.

  • very-very bad for close up. iwas deceived by 5.0mp spec.

  • how's the picture quality?

  • check the camaera settings

  • i bought this last year php 10,500

  • Nothing but problems after 5 months. Service provider insists it's the sim card or the signal but they've updated the software(firmware) and my husband uses the same provider and he has signal when I don't. No ability to get signal. Nice design and layout. wish it would work though!

  • Great little powerpack phone, but does anybody know how to mute the camera click noise when taking pictures. Its real loud.

  • I would say its a good phone, but I can't hear other person's voice clearly (Volume is very Low). Ring tones volume is very low too. Phone memory is also very low. Pics are O.K. Its very heavy to carry in the pocket. No other comment.

  • I would say its a good phone, but I can't hear other person's voice clearly. Phone memory is also very low. Pics are O.K. Its very heavy to carry in the pocket. No other comment.

  • the baterry back up phone is very low please reduce it or change it

  • 2nd cam is only 2 video cals. Scrien tap to 2 tims u cn display time n u can cal silnt than 2 tap cut ur cak

  • i would say its not a good phone because i cant hear the other person voice clearly i claimed twice for warranty to do something about it but still problem exists so i would suggest its not a good phone although its camera is good

  • how can i use the front camera,, pls help me,, they said that this only use in video call,, is there any application to use this as front camera,, hehe help me,,

  • dear sir. how to enable 3G in my mobile phone. Nokia 6600i slide. plz send me full detail to enable 3G function. thnx

  • hi there! Does anyone knows where i could buy a headset for this phone. The original headset has been torn out & i'm getting a hard time looking for a replacement. Pls help! thanks!

  • Like the phone. I updated to the latest firmware v.36.60 which fixed the TimeOut problem and keypad lock issue as well. The latest FW also fixed the auto focus issue (did not work on close ups) I had but still the focus is not 100% still needs more fine tuning when it comes close ups. With normal use I tend to get 2 to 3 days use with full charge. The best this about this phone is the size and the functions. Keypad could have been bit softer on touch as I do sms a lot. Overall great Nokia Phone.

  • Hi.Does anybody know how to prevent the shrinkage of caller's photo when you receive a call.

  • Goto nokia's website....and download the manual...

  • Go to Nokia website and search there.

  • Did you find out if there's any application to make LED into torch? I have a 6600i and LOVE it but a torch would be SO useful. Thanks. Any reply to [email protected]

  • --i want to have this someday... :-)

  • brilliant. words cannot describe. full stop.

  • This is an unbelievably bad phone. The only good thing is its looks. Crappy keyboard, unreadable in the sun, undetectable vibration, useless non-working profiles, and the update has made the (Nokia) bluetooth hands-free undetectable!!!! I cannot believe Nokia sells this product. Its support page is decades old and non-functioning! It leads to an error. Never again a mistake like this!!!! Good riddance bloody Nokia!

  • yaa of course ..... go to profiles anf personalise ie and then off the warning tones....it will disable the shutter sound of the camera.....

  • for me yes

  • try to explore your phone so that you will know..hehe

  • can anyone tel me how to disable the shutter sound of the camera as u cant take picture privately....reply plzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • helo guys i need to know dose 6600i have operation system

  • Hi, i just bought a 6600u slide phone yesterday... it is a nice simple phone (not too good yet not so bad). overall, good thing with this phone is its built quality and the bad thing is its camera. but i still like it! *** need a lil' help with its camera auto-focus, i am having a hard time figuring it out. coz' sometimes the auto focus turns green but most of the time it is red. i know the green one says it a good shot but i always make sure i have a good shot but it still turns red. out of 10 good still shots, only 1 turned green. =( pls help me anyone who is knowledgeable about this prob. any comment will do... thanks! =)

  • Hello Guys, I have a question, I am wanna buy this phone for my Mom, you think its a good phone for her ? as she will using it only as a phone. And the 2nd Q is, if the price $240 ok for this phone? Please respond to my Qs ASAP, as I am going to get this later today. May-14-10. Regards!!

  • I have been offered this phone as a replacement for one that has been lost. I have read all the comments - most of them negative. Should I accept or take the Sony Ericcson W 595which I could have instead.

  • Great phone if to be used as a phone only ... not for anything else. People not happy need to be other gadgets not mobile phone.

  • what's wrong with the review? this is a mobile phone, and the common expectations are to use it as a phone and SMS, nothing else. camera? it's only a 'good to have' feature .... you want the quality? buy a dedicated camera from canon or nikon. that's it. you need a document reader? buy ipad .... need radio or mp3 player? buy ipod or other dedicated mp3 player. come on, you can't expect an all-in-one device to have the highest quality on every feature it has. the most important, if the basic device function is a phone, let's be it. do the review based on the phone esential features, and not the additional 'fancy' things. i choose this model because of its sleekness. for me, as long as the device can make a voice call and sms exchanges, it's enough. the quality i am looking for is for these two features only. this phone has the quality for those, plus extra small to be put in the pocket. the only complain i have for this model is the operating system. it is not stable and quite often reboot the system. this is very annoying, especially during sms-ing. i hope that nokia will release some patches to fix this.

  • yes nokia it's still the best cellphone company indeed.

  • phone is small and very practical

  • youve got a point dude...

  • I actually own one and eventhough i've read all your opinions it didn't stop me from buying this sweet phone..yes i know there are some flaws to the design, like when you place it on a completely flat surface, the speaker gets blocked and you won't be able to hear your ringtone, well you just have to live with it, also the camera is not that good but if set to a lower resolution it's decent enough for me, i recommend the 66001 slide for simple individuals. If you're into taking pictures why blame the phone?why don't you buy yourself a decent digital camera, and if your a music lover why not go for an ipod?right?what im trying to say here is that although phones are equipped with lots of things, it does not separate the fact that its main purpose is to be a phone right?

  • if u want loud sound go buy n73 or 5310 or any other expres music edition those are for music lovers 6600 is mostly girly phone,and the speaker is OK just put it face down it has 1 speaker and 1 hole so dust wont go in the phone and then in front of the display,if u don`t know what youre gona use your phone for don`t buy mobile at all

  • Awwww poor baby!! should have researched it before buying it! xD

  • worst phone ever made by nokia, do not buy it, it has a really old software, the camera software was on first nokia phones....just bought it, will sell it tmrw, or break it!

  • Nice phone for its price! Only problem is the ringtone sound, starts low and after 3-4 sec is set to high (even then is very low - if you got it in a drawer you won't even hear it) Extremely tough also, because i closed the trunk on it and nothing happened also.

  • secondary camera only for 3G calls .. you cannot use that to take photos ..

  • Great phone but forget using it as an alarm. Alarm so soft you won't hear it and no way to increase the volume.

  • i think that it is a relli gud phone, i mean tghe reson of y i choose it was for its sleek design and the size. i Love my music too and i hve toadmit that the sound qulity through the headphones is REALLY bad. however the loud speker is ok. and as for the ring and message tone, i dont know cos i always hve my phone on silent. but overall i dont think the ph is as bad as u lot r makin it seem. its quite cool. any1 opting for it GO AHEAD!

  • honestly its an alright phone the only problem that i have with it is the ringtone....it always plays low and then gets louder after 4 secs or sooo

  • I can't use the secondary camera. I can't find anywhere to switch it on.. Somebody just help me please.

  • but this is a small but nastily heavy phone!

  • this is a gud lookin fone... but once u drop it... the voice quality goes bad...even after u get it fixed the voice is not the same as when like a new fone, and the camera... 5megapix????? does not lookin like.... this fone is a gud show piece.

  • i want this phone! does it really sound that bad? maybe most people who complained about the sound quality is that they didn't configure the sound ssettings....i suppose...

  • According to some people, who have commented on the Nokia 6600i, the sound quality is poor. What does that mean? Call quality or music player quality? What do you, who are using the phone, think about call quality? Is it better or worse than other Nokia phones? Regards David

  • Very happy to buy this phone. Nice design and still solid. Not good for listening music - it's not the designed intention. Very discreet. Keep up the good work!

  • i hav bought diz phone.itz so nice and nice to handle.good keypad,little bit sound poor and display brightness also l.bit poor.camera iz good quality.allover i like diz phone...........

  • I had the opportunity to choose between the nokia6600i and the blackberry curve i decided to go with the brand i trusted(Nokia) and a phone which i thought suited me best and this is the first time that my brand has disappointed me with regards to looks,durability and features i think it is a stunning phone the only problem which i noticed in many other blogs is the poor sound quality now i understand that many of the blogs are opinionated but so many of the same complaint something should get done for all these unsatisfied customers. I still believe Nokia is the best brand it is just for them now to take it upon themselves to wright a wrong.

  • I got the speaker replaced from Nokia Care. It still sounds poor. It is definately a design defect.

  • this phone is not a bad phone it just u so stop it

  • It's the worst Nokia I ve used. The speaker is very poor. The volume is weak and clarity is poor. I would not recommend anyone considering purchasing this phone.

  • i might agree that some features are omitted yet still contented with the phone.... trust me guys if you really know what really a phone shoud be better try this out...

  • this phone sucks please don't waste your money its no good

  • Am not a high tech person just a basic But would have to say Do not get this phone Backlight & volume are useless...... Just those 2 item alone are the most frustrating!! Not worth the hassle Rethink and get something else A better option Wish I still had a choice again but too late now and wasted my money...

  • problem when using indoor, reception very bad. keep receiving "missed call" msg from network provider. Even signal full bar, unable to receive call.

  • I have been using the 6600i slide for abt 6 months now,to be fair, I think it is quite a good phone, compact, light, tough, and quite reliable. but now adays every Tom Dick and Harry thinks only an iPhones or black berry are good but I hates thoes big and nasty heavy phones.

  • help me out- the calculator just disappeared from organiser!!thnx

  • this phone is not good better to buy symbian phone

  • this phone is not good better to buy symbian phone

  • are u sure?

  • never seen a worst nokia phone in my entire life gonna sell it and bye an iphone

  • hey is the 6600i a good phone to buy and if I have a vodafone pre-paid sim card can i put it in the phone

  • Hi fuxH. Go and try for yourself at the dealer's place. Note that any slight obstruction to the small hole at the lower back part of the phone will "kill" the ring volume.

  • I wonder if these phone companies read our comments cause if a phone has negative feed back then the they (nokia) need to do their home work! So Tech Addict, is it a yes or a no cause this sound thing is really getting to me and I�m no phone expert but I love my music!

  • Ok im about to buy this phone but is the sound really that bad?

  • well i guess, it is user dependent... i think the phone is nice.... take a try.... its cool despite of the black propaganda to this unit

  • I agree with some of previous comments on POOR RINGING VOLUME. has anyone any solution?

  • all the features r good but out put of sound is not good

  • Ok, relax...

  • I had this telefon and believe me it s true:very bad sound on the internal earpiece.I am electronic engineer.

  • Loved the asthetics(looks)BUt performance sucks Ring tone at maximum volume still too soft even at moderate niosy environment.Processor freezes frequently and memory card slot in very tight spot,so is the sim cord slot.and 3.5 audoi socket(lack of) Hopefully nokia will fix it, if it did it's a very nice looking phone.

  • how to get area location display on standby mode

  • Thank u soooo much scorpio. i really appreciate ur help :)

  • The nokia 6600i is a beautiful sleek phone it goes without saying the only problem according to me is why does it have to prompt me to to search for an external bluetooth device inorder to make use of it?.

  • I suppose to make it louder you can use the middle key up. Any way it is very soft and very cheaply made. Try Samsung Star, much cheaper and much much better....Very loud too.

  • I have trouble with the volume of the ringing tone of messages. when i hear the tone it is very loud but when i set it as my preferred tone and i receive a message the sound is very low. can any one help me?

  • i agree its crappy to have a bran new cell and the 5 days of having it the phone is loose.is my slider going to break off in the next month? i rate nokia sorts out their stuff before making it a public phone.really bad of them not to have done tests before releasing this peace of crap

  • Speaker outlet design on the underside tends to supress the ring volume but otherwise a good & compact cell phone.

  • thats globalization for you brothers and sisters. get parts from this manufacturer get some to this put them together and a new phone for you. even in cars now a days becoming faulty. toyota recalling its cars and also honda. companies nowadays seek less costs great profit without considering its quality. world is becoming dangerous..

  • nowadays cellphones w/out wifi = "Garbage"

  • This is actually the worst Nokia phone I have ever owed and I have had quite a few. The good thing is its size which is appealing and can easily be put into a pocket or small handbag space but the really bad thing is its volume. I miss countless calls and text messages as I never hear it go on and there is no volume control to alter. Also the sound comes out of the back and if the phone is sitting on a table for example, the speaker is covered plus the vibration make no sound at all and it hardly vibrates. I thought for how much this phone cost, it is a really poor buy and am going to go back to my old model which was the 6300 slide so was a total waste of money.

  • READ THIS BEFORE BUYING THIS PHONE: I am very disapointed, I paid a lot for this phone & am HIGHLY remorseful, I bought it because it is small & I hate huge phones, plus it had to be a Nokia, I wont go elsewhere. It has many "fatal" flaws in my opinion, Music is my world. 1. U cannot adjust the volume unless I'm in the music player - PAINFUL. 2. Radio does not appear to have a loudspeaker - this is bad. 3. Numbers are flat and far apart, typing texts with long nails is near impossible (and they're not even that long). 4. Its slow, I tried speeding it up by just pressing the option I knew I'd need next and it reset itself and I had to start again (I've had it for a week). 5. Music comes out of 1 small hole at the back of the phone, accidentally put your finger over it and you hear nothing, never mind if you want it facing upright while you type. 6. no such thing as a user friendly pouch for this thing unless you want to be putting it in and out of something all day long. I have small children so those Rubber Capdase pouches are most practical as they get dropped on the floor. Cant get one for this because its a slide phone... hmm. what else. 7. Stainless steel so its very heavy. (great upside though if you do drop it, it shouldn't break:-)) 8. The Circle of arrows is very narrow so its difficult to press. otherwise its great as nokia phones go, it does everything they say it should. 9. Camera wise, Nokia still leaves much to be desired (and its a 5megapixel)

  • this must be the worst phone nokia have brought to the public. had the phone two months and its going back to t-mobile agin for the second time. battery lasted 24 hours at a push and thats on standby and the speaker phone didnt work, now the speaker phone works and the battery even though it was replaced and the software upgraded its still the same. so nokia what are you doing??????. give this one a miss if i were you, maybe i should get t-mobile to give me another phone.

  • Bought this phone recently to replace a Motorola Z3 slider which I have been using for years. I'm a fairly basic phone user, mostly just call, text, and snap the occasional picture, and I wanted something small, so I thought this would be a great phone for me. Unfortunately there was a lot I didn't like and I ended up returning it about a week later. First, it doesn't auto lock when you slide it closed. you can set it to lock after a certain amount of time, but then it will lock even if you are in the middle of something and just get distracted. Second, as others have said, the screen turns off after a short time and although there are options to supposedly turn this feature off, they don't work. Also as others have mentioned, the double tap feature is not really as advertised, I had to hit mine so hard it felt like I would break it. I found the software to be very slow and laggy compared to my old motorola as well. I also found the keypad to be hard to use with one hand, and the navigation key was irritatingly loud, while the ringer was irritatingly soft. Overall I like the hardware, and if you put style over function then this phone is a good choice. But, for even the basics, I found the software completely unsatisfactory.

  • it is possible to give a person their own ring tone, select the person, Details, Options, Add Detail, there's an option that says Tone.

  • yea the phone seems to be nice but does not make a much of diff then the others

  • Thanks alina.. but it doesnt seem to work always.. :(

  • I dont think thats possible. If necessary, you'l have to create a group inclusive of that person,and then set a tone to the "group"

  • Is there a way or is it possible to change the color of this phone after purchasing it? coz ive seen 6600i wid a different color besides blak nd silver

  • hello everybody. does anyone know if there is an application for the 6600i slide which you can install to use the dual LED flash like a torch or something? THANK YOU.

  • think again before buying this phone.Keypad is uncomfortable and hard to press.Also D pad is not big enough for ease to use.Screen part of sliding body is shaking when slide it up.Shortcut keys are too small and not easy to push the keys.Just an advantage is that this is a new model and it has small body size.Plus screen resolution and outer appearance are very good.That is all.

  • Please help me with this: Is there any way to assign a different tones for the names in agenda for Nokia 6600i slide? I can't find it anywhere. I know for sure Nokia 2630 doesn't have this feature

  • For tapping you need to hit two times the big button in the middle ( the menu button )

  • the cam goes into power saver mode only if the keypad is left unused for about 5- 10 secs. the message yu type or what ever application yu are using does not close and is not lost.

  • Pro: 1. very compact and handy 2. camera is superb 3. pretty fast 4. Not as bad as it is portrayed on user reviews. Con: 1. goes to power saver mode a bit too soon- but i wouldnt take it as a complaint. 2. it can stay about 4-5 days for an average user. not more. 3. the cam in front is only for video calling 4. the tapping facility doesnt really work. atleast not on mine. yu will like have to HIT it and just MAYBE it will light up. Might not be fit for ppl who are perfectionists.

  • agree

  • yes

  • yes go

  • This is actually perfect. High quality camera, innovative design and great features.

  • I've bougth on 6 january a 6600i nokia phone. I am verry disapointed of the photo camera sharpenss. My old Nokia N73 with only 3.2MP had more sharpness and the picture was more clear. It dose NOT autofocus, it only adjustes the exposure. I chacked the lens and it is not dirty but it makes pictures like through a sligth FOG. Yes that's it ... the pictures with the 6600i are blured ! I am sorry that I've bougth this phone! NOT good for taking pictures !

  • this phone is really cool!!! nice camera,battery life is really great,the design is fantastic...so classy and sexy!

  • very cute and classy phone

  • i love this phone!!! very elegant

  • dose it has os symbian?

  • Hi, sorry, but all you wrote is a normal functions not amazing ... The sound is horrible, price is not very good. Bad keyboard for write messages, not good sliding. This phone hasn't standard normal functions, that's the bad. I used about 40 types of phones, but this phone is a worst what I have. Look its your money, but it and use it ... thanks

  • how much is that

  • i wanna buy this phone but when i read the comment, that's make me worry.

  • i love its design...very compact...Best slider phone so far

  • please pray to god that i earn enough money this to buy it

  • great phone! so cute...

  • I have problems with the camera. Autofocus does not work. The rectangle is always red even in good light. Does anybody have the same problem, or this is the way this phone works?

  • how to use front camera on 6600i slide

  • just got this phone yesterday.. so far sims nice... thanks for ol your opinions so i can explore more about this phone...

  • If this phone use Symbian S60 OS ! It's very well...

  • Ringing volume so poor i miss recieving call all time,it's the worst thing i ever bought..

  • How is the battery life on 6600i....

  • was this 6600i meant to have a wifi? coz it seems w/ the specs indicated "no"

  • hi, the 6600i is a good phone, for its price its quite a purchase. the features are amazing, the size is fantastic, i would highly recommend it for young ladies, great for chatting, listening to music, downloading music etc, i loved the clarity of the photos most of all. i highly recommend the phone

  • Who need wlan? LOL. Unless u need live update on soccer, stock or casino. If not forget it. And there are unlimited access data plan.

  • not good phone ... it looks very nice, but it's too slow, bad camera for 5MP, slow communication speed, horrible sound, I can't configure automatic lock for down slide and many bad properties. I have it 2 days and I hate it... My worst purchase of the mobile... thanks

  • I just bought my phone. like... 3 hours ago..? ;) it's compact and cute. makes it kinda hard to hold, but u'll get used to it. perfect for girls btw. the camera is awesome. u'll have to press and hold the middle button til the rectangle in the middle of the screen becomes green. then you let go. your picture will be very clear. 5MP!!! for the sound problems. try using the equalizer. put on "set 1" or "set 2" to try out your tones. it's kinda heavy for it's size. but at least you know it's gone if you loose it. HAHA!

  • did u try the equalizer? i tried using "set 1" and "set 2" it sounds a lot better. i was shocked at first too. =p

  • nice phone

  • My nokia is very good overall. It has great maps, big memmory. Although sometimes the screen kind of shuts down for a second, but it automatically comes back up, which is okay i guess... The keypad is hard to text from. The letters are so small the the buttons are flat, making it hard to text from. Although overall, I am very happy with my new phone.

  • very poor 5m camera!! no picture quality, no picture sharpness, no true color reproduction - blue sky shows grey , and a lot no nos..

  • "the best nokia skider i ever had. quirty design sleek design a must have one of it.

  • Can a single entry in the call log history be removed ?

  • QUESTION: IS there is a solution for the bad sliding mechanism in technician part ?!

  • hi .. it is a good mobile but there is two negative points in it : 1- Sliding mechanism is sooo bad 2- there is a sound of whistle while the mobile is on !

  • 190eura in MNE,extra small,friendly to use,solid,strong built,superconfortable keypad.i have it last 6 month,and i am very satisfied,pictures are great,for video you need staedy arm.opening mehanisam will last forever.same feeling as nokia saphir/arte,much better ergonomy,battery and camera.10/10

  • please i want to scream do any one care i alredy have n95 8 giga for year now its the best phone i have ever used then i bought 6600i slide as birthday gift for my fiance do u know what? for using this phone for 2 hours she missed about 3 calls while we was at the cinema where it supposed to be quite place the vibration i swear in my hands and i can rarely feel jt . to all people who wanna buy this phone plz plz remember if u wanna a phone to hear any other phone or a silent lamb will be better than this one.

  • Sound quality is very bad Does anyone have the same problem this is definetely the worst phone I have ever bought

  • can someone tell me does this phone have autofocus?

  • hello, i am thinking of buying this phone, does it have a loud stereo system? or is it poor? let me know thanks.

  • another problem!!! the radio cannot be heard on the loudspeaker !!!! is nokia being careless??

  • I am having the same problem with the ringer, it cannot be heard and it's always on a desk another problem with the call log if a number calls several times the time and date of the last time called is only stored the others disappear, I didn t have that problem with earlier versions !

  • Hello please If any body could help, Does this phone support "Phone book TTS"? that is does this phone has feature to read out contact name while browsing contact list? I have seen this feature in motorola v8. In Nokia N73 if I add voice tag then it can also read out name, but I need this feature to be out box rather then manually adding voice tag.

  • U r right 5 MP camera and no Wlan waste

  • u r absolutely right a mobile phone for above 12000 without a wlan is a waste to buy. A mobile without wifi practically serves nothing nowadays. :(

  • I experienced a few probs: snaps of 5m camera is not all clear or have quality if the phone is kept on a table, the speaker outlet will be closed and ring tone cannot be heard. what a design?

  • actually the best edition of nokia's is series 6 so i'm going to try it ,and i dont care to WIFI i have my own Laptop

  • No wifi on a 5MP camera phone! Thats STUPID!

  • I don't understand why is everybody complaining about the stand-by mode.. I have a Samsung U900 Soul and the screen also turns black after a few seconds, it's normal! So that the phone can conserve energy. It never bothered me. I think it's a nice phone for everyday use, especially for a girl. It's very cute and small :D

  • Its really bad 4 users Bcoz it dnt have memory card u have to perchance this by ore self ,,,,,,,its 2 costly and htey dont give memory card in giving money,,,,,,,..........

  • Can i know how you turn on the phone's accelerometer?

  • can anyone tell me how to turn the accelerometer on??? i cant find it anywhere!!!!:@

  • Hi, I'm planning to buy this phone and I would like some info. How many messages could be store in the phone? and there is a way to not use the battery saving mode? thanks

  • if u read the specification of the mobile ...you can see if it has blue tooth or no

  • is there no way one can adjust the screen brightness or set the backlight timing?

  • The camera has a bright flash but the pic quality doesn't meet my expectations for a 5mps camera. Its a mid range phone but could of been better.

  • Yes, it does have blue tooth! The phone is being sold here for 11,500 pesos.

  • Hello,i just bought this nokia before 4-5 days ago,it's just great,network is strong,battery save mode is superb,so it can be 4-5 days working on it without charging,applications are okay,and camera is very very good,night pictures are goooood :))...if u want my opinion,this phone is worth buying:) .. it's great ;)

  • Does this fone have bluetooth

  • I wanna have this fone :) I really like how it looks,the camera.. everything! how much is this in the philippines?!

  • not up to d xpectations... doesnt hav volume control keys{with zoom function}...its very irritating.... doesnt hav camera key... sound quality is poor.... average camera quality... the only good feature is dat it is small and looks good....

  • Heavy... pic taken not clear enough, low quality although 5MP.. Low ringing volume..always missed my call..

  • This phone is great! The reason why it blacks out within 5 seconds is because it is in battery saving mode. The front slide is loose because it prevents the phone from scratches and more importantly the slide mechanism. All slide phones are like this. Take time to study the phone....aside from its classy physical appearance, the features will also great. And it does come with a 1 GB memory card. If you didn't find a memory card, go back to where you bought the phone and complain. Several of my friends also have this phone and the box came with the memory card.

  • Yes I agree with most of the comment. Dont buy this phone. It goes black out less than 5seconds, very irritating & the volume is very soft even to the maximum. Take my advise you will regret/

  • I bought this phone last Oct 26, i found it nice and great..but the problem is that the front slide part is moving, which means it is not that that steady and firm..Can anyone tell me if this is normal with this phone? Thanks a lot!

  • when opening camera or making a video it does a black out.. bu only for bout 1 second or 2? and its normal. Coz i tried 2 phones before i bought it.

  • 6600 slide has no free 1G memory card but same price..

  • i bought this phone last sunday.. its a good phone.. lavet.. good video result. but its not dual cam. front cam is only for video call.. no pre installed opera mini. but for me all in all this phone is good.

  • I got an Nokia 6600i , i was gonna buy an Nokia 6600 but the seller , prevered me 6600i. It's quite good , i like it , the sound is perfect and the camera is GREAT.

  • Is 6600i slide better than 6600 slide? Sound on my 6600 slide was quite bad, and yes, signal was fine. I think aluminium/metal case was the problem?! Is that possible?

  • I think it's a typical Nokia phone with missing the Camera Botton on the side of the phone, and there is no LAN connection on it. so it's just a fine mobile phone.

  • yes the phone is 3g.

  • i was not really satisfied with my 6600i slide up phone. the lcd and flex and board gave up.good thing it was still within the warranty period. but even if the parts are already replaced still there are times it shuts down while viewing pictures in the gallery. if m going to buy a new one definitely not the slide up type of phonew

  • I am going yo buy this?... any problem... please help me...

  • this is a 3g phone? im from philippines

  • Is it true that the camera on d front is not allowed for self portrait?? And for video calls only??

  • why do we need to charge the battery for long hours? 8hours etc im talkin anout the first charge. tnx

  • why dont just read the specs? yes it includes 1G memory, charger , headset in the box..

  • 10,500 pesos.. ten thousand 500 pesos.. price in here (phils)

  • sm malls... 10500 pesos..

  • know what? i think this is a good phone for me. Good specs. So no matter what negative opinions posted here. Im gonna buy this.. and i think the person who said this is not good.. Got this phone in low class, immitation..and not a good store. how pathetic. all of you are deceived.. you dont how to check whichis genuine, before buying.. agree guys? NOKIA rules..

  • Just bought the 6600i slide. Let me name the disadvantages: -No self-portrait(cannot take photo of yourself using front camera) -speaker not great enough -the light automato off after a few sec -Siver is heavy(maybe is due to the hp is made of stainless metal) -the back cover is also made of stainless metal so easier to get warm(any1 thiking of changing to plastic back cover??)

  • to make video call,press the number then press option to select video call.

  • dont buy this phone it is not able to be a mobile. nokia making fools to their custmrs now. nokia u r going to finish. thats all

  • I just bought this phone yesterday. The blackout doesn't happen when I watch a video on the phone. There is no problem with the tak tak sound when it rings with the vibration. It is a very good phone. Small and handy. Stainless steel phone that doesn't look like a toy with all the plastics these days.

  • what do u mean blackout? n when does it happened?

  • How much is nokia 6600i slide here in the Philippines? asap. tnx :)

  • baough it yesterday and took it back, screen goes off in about 5 sec. which is very anoying.dont buy it unless you can handle that problem.

  • I'm from Hong Kong & just got the 6600i Slide a week ago but i found that if the vibrator works with some ringtone i.e. nokia tune some strange sounds (like "tak,tak...") appeared. Then I went to the local Nokia repair centre but they suggested that it also happened to their demo phone. Now they can only try to replace a new motherbroad to see if the problem could be fixed (but no guarantee...!) I would like to know if the similar situation happened in other area or only the log in HK

  • what u mean while in use will blackout ? when it is ??

  • anyone know how to get the screensavers workin? thanks

  • I bought nokia 6600i slide yesterday and I would definetly NOT RECOMMEND this phone to anyone.The phone goes blackout in few seconds(5 seconds)while in use.So when you are typing a msg or downloading from PC it becomes problematic.They have a power saver option for namesake which doesn't work.Did not expect this type of faulty product from Nokia.

  • Is der audio jacks & mem card included in da box?

  • Chutiya fone hai yo... Bai mhane galti kar di yo le ke

  • What did you expect when buying a Nokia phone, they are all rubbish built like toys...

  • i need to know how to ativae video call option in this phone

  • battery is pre-charged but u need to top it up till it's full, says so in the manual

  • My menu button broke today, I've been taking the battery out, swapping sim cards, and baisically anything I can think of, still nothing. My call and end call button works, as does the number pad, its just my navigation and menu keys that appear to be the problem. I'm just wondering if theres any possible quick fix or if anyone else has experienced this problem?

  • the volumes very loww, if the volume of the phone was a bit higher, i'd buy it!

  • i realy realy like this fon

  • what means of blackout??

  • when using the phone normally, the blackout doesn't seem to be a problem to me. it can even be a plus because it really conserves battery, which is fairly decent for the 6600i, btw. only when i have to read long sms and counter check the data on my computer because it takes time.

  • is all 6600i slide has the same problem with blackout ?? if this case, i gotta change my mind...

  • i just recently updated my firmware from 36.14 to 36.16. does anyone here know where i can find a change log of the update? sadly, it doesn't fix the blacking out of the screen. very disappointing on nokia's part for not listening to feedback.

  • Hi to all, i had read all the opinion in here, i notice that only one problem on this phone, that's BLACKOUT ~ is this serious to user who like to buy ?

  • no,you cant change the memory for sms,mms

  • i have NOKIA 6600. i regular use it. now i wanna buy new handset. so i think that i will be buy NOKIA 6600i......

  • Hi there, Ive been reading the comments posted on the Nokia 6600i slide. Found them to be quite useful in making up my mind. I currently have the 6500 slide, which is great. Good camera, excellent slide mechanism, Carl Zeiss lenses. One of few negatives is the speaker is not great. I am due for an upgrade soon & I was thinking of the 6600i, but have now decided against it. The absence of the Carl Zeiss lens, poor slide mechanism & the blacking out when using certain functions have put me off. Thank you guys for your input. Reading the specs is nothing compared to reading you guys experience with the phone. Once again, thank you. Leon

  • i just bought 6600i last week with RM800(ap), so far the spec satisfied me, and i really like its stylish design. I found a bit frustrated with the 10secs black out mode and it cant be adjust.

  • The model numbers

  • this comment has been soo useful as I was thinking of upgrading from my fab 6500slide to this one cos of the camera!

  • Ciao ... in Italy 6600i costa �240 ....

  • how much??

  • I bought the Nokia 6600i slide; its pretty simple and easy to use and pretty good lookwise too...small and has most of the features one would need - price wise I think its a bit on the higher side, but all similar spec phones come in this range...I would recommend it..

  • Hi the 6500 slide is 3.15 MP, 2048x1536 pixels, Carl Zeiss. Also on this model 6600i slide, the Carl Zeiss has been removed and they upgraded the camera to 5 MP. The camera quality is poorer then the old version 6500. I would like to see more sample pictures take from the 6600i slide model.

  • Hello Rydon, if you are looking for Carl Zeiss Optics you might want to check out the N Series. All S40 OS Nokia phones (at least for now i think) do not have this feature. But they are still nice if you just don't move the phone too much when taking photos. It just doesn't have the "Auto-focus" that the Sony CZ Optics has. :-)

  • I got it for about 290 USD a month ago.

  • Got this phone over a month ago and so far I am satisfied. The overall look is very sophisticated. I chose the black color as I am a young professional, and I feel like it matches the young business lady look. Its design is very nice, the matte finish doesn't get finger prints like the earlier version (6600 slide - blue). Feels heavy at first, especially if you were carrying a lighter phone previously, but once you get used to it, psychologically it feels lighter. So far the battery life is good. It usually lasts for 3 days with regular usage. For features very typical, I hope I could get a headphones converter so I can use the usual headsets out there in the market. The USB connectivity is also good, tends to be slow a bit when memory is low (manageable). The camera isn't so bad too, just need to be still when taking photos, turn down the megapixel to about 3MP and it will give you good results. I love the fact that I can take photos in low lighting now. If you are used to the optics used for N95 though you might be a bit disappointed. Though since I last used my Nokia Express Phone that has the same OS (S40), it has improved a lot and does serve my needs for impromptu pictorials. Lastly, speakers aren't as nice as the Express Music phones but they don't break at mid to high volume. To sum this up I'd give it an 8/10 - for performance, design and features.

  • Where is the Carl Zeiss camera not good.

  • Hi ! Today i just buy this model of phone ! the design is ok ! black col ! only i dont like the earset desing ! and charger connector !

  • Can anyone please tell me if I can change the memory in use for the messages(SMS & MMS)???? Thanks

  • for malayisa user.. go to leleong.com.my just search for this model..and get da lates price.. :)

  • for malayisa user.. go to leleong.com.my just search for this model..and get da lates price.. :)

  • i totally agree with this disadvantage as said previously quote The phone tends to "blackout" on reading long sms. Resliding the phone does the trick. unquote any hint how to overcome this ?? it blacks out after seconds - thanks for any support

  • Coming from a 6500slide, i find the 6600 to be a valid replacement. The steel finishing on the previous phone is fantastic to hold and feel and very few nokia phones even the higher models matches it. I have contemplated on several phones with better features somehow i am magnetized towards the steel finish. Finally after 20 months I had suffered 2 wks of jammed sliding problems with the 6500. I finally looked at nokia again and 6600i stood out to be my choice. Positive) 1.Technically both phones are similar, i can migrate themes from 6500 over with no issues. 2.Fantastic design and finishes. Negatives) 1.Functionally, i do miss the volume button and camera button on the side of the phone. Nokia pushed the functions to the navigation button. 2.The phone tends to "blackout" on reading long sms. Resliding the phone does the trick. 3.The USB port is covered, plugging the headset and USB cable is quite a task. 4.The sliding mechanism is not as solid as the 6500. 5.Stupidly short USB cable supplied with the package. 6.Being smaller, i do find myself struggling to key in text with 1 hand. Other than the negatives, the 6600i feels alot better on the pocket than the 6500. The ringer seems to be louder too. Not much to comment over the S40 functions both are similar. Camera wise, the images taken are so so quality not much to expect from this price tag. All camera phones interpolate the pixels. The 6500 isnt great either. 2 days into owning this phone despite the flaws, the beauty and simplicity and asking price seems to be a fair deal. I give it a 4 stars and the 6500 a solid 5 stars.

  • yes that is the range. I think the official price how ever is a thousand something in ringgit i cant recall. Best go to a nokia showroom to find out the actual original price when ur in malaysia.

  • what's the difference between this phone and nokia 6260 slide?

  • Good for Use

  • yeah but you said it is 103.00 or 990.00?? so u mean that it is the range of value of the phone???

  • If you're rough with the phone you may not want to consider getting a slide type phone.

  • i stated the price in my previous post :)

  • I am from Malaysia. I have faced a small problem with the new 6600i slide. It think the phone is poor slide and lacking in between of the 2 slides. I bought original and one week after that, I bring to nokia center to replace a new slider. I have to wait 2 to 3 weeks while the phone is too new and the part is not ready in stock. Have to book. After that, I went to shopping plaza to check on other shop for the new phone whether they all face the same problem as I faced. I noticed that 6 shops of I visit for viewing the real phone, 5 of them facing the same problem as me even the phone is still not in sell yet. I dont know whether other people do have same issue as me. Pls let me know it. I might be reflect to nokia.

  • depends where youre from from. in malaysia its about 1,03.00 ringgit. at least thats the best price the place i went to buy it. i got for 990

  • Hi im from malaysia and i just got this phone today from low yatt plaza. Its excellent. the only annoyance is the standby mode that blanks out quickly. doesnt help when reading long text messages. but otherwise it comes with a sleep mode and power safe mode which is probably why.so far the battery is lasting longer than previous nokia phone. sound is good enough for a non expressmusic phone. otherwise i have no complaints what so ever and im very happy with my purchase.if you love slide phones this is the one to get in my opinion

  • It's a great phone, but there is one annoying thing I can't solve. Maybe I'm just thick. Nothing I do in the "settings" stops the screen going blank after five seconds. It's so annoying. You're reading a long text and it goes blank. You're writing down a number and it goes blank. I've switched off both the screen saver and the power off and the sleep mode and put the time out to 5 minutes, but it all makes no difference. Any ideas?

  • any one tell me about the font size.... can we change the font size and make it large size???????????

  • I havent buy this mode handphone yet ! I hope there have dictionary coz very useful for me ! I like nokia phone . coz easy to use!

  • how much is the nokia 6600i slide? i need answer. pleaaaaaaaaaaaaase. :(

  • Really need to know the difference between this model and the 66oo slide...but based on my opinion,the 6600 slide is way better than this model..

  • looks fine let c

  • I just bought one and after few hours the navigation keys did not respond to touch. can't operate and use my phone! anyone has had this experience?

  • yeah, what's the difference between the slide, fold and the small one?????

  • yeah, wat's the difference between slida nad fold? and wat about the thick and small one?...

  • What is the difference between this model and the nokia 6600 slide? Because it looks the same but the only difference that I see is that the camera mega pixel is higher than the other model.

  • Am concerned about the font size. Currently have a 6230i and the font size is fine. Can you change the font size on this phone so that it is comparable or larger?

  • How about the signal quality and the speaker is so low as the classic 6600s?

  • excellent combination.

  • beautiful phone

  • Can someone advise if the alarm works ok on this ? And is this phone considered better than the 6260 slide ?

  • How can I make the Flash Lite 3 work...help me !

  • Yes, it is.

  • does this have a camera in front for video call?

  • Dude, don't waste your time with 6260 slide. It will be very similar to this phone. 6220 that you had has S60 OS - that's why you liked it better. If you like slide form factor, get N85 - it's about the same price as 6260. But sliders are about to be replaced with the side-sliders - that way you can be more productive with writing e-mails, etc... So if you want to future-proof your purchase - get E75 or 5730XM. The last one seems to be in your price range.

  • You must have bought it from some duplicated mobile manufacturing company

  • seriously amazing handset with all unqiue features and worth buying. In fact, it is perfect deal for every mobile user.

  • All fine, but what is the problem with the battery time? is a copy from 2006 model?

  • hot hot hot..this phone is totally cool..worth the buy

  • hot hot hot...this phone is so cool its totally worth the buy

  • Have had this phone a few days now. I bought it as a sim free and having some problems with internet service. Love the look and feel of the phone but was hoping it would be simular to 6220 but its not. Menus not as deep, keep looking for things and running into dead ends. Biggest problem for me is the time-out which is only 10 seconds. Contacted Nokia support and was told this could not be changed. Finding this a nightmare. Allround I prefer the 6220 classic however I like slide phones. Going to sell 6600i and try the 6260 slide instead.

  • The Nokia 6600i slide is a great phone. From experience, this phone has a great receptivity. I chose this phone because its design is attractive, classic and sleek. Moreover, the slider is smooth. The SAR value is rather low - 0.35kw/g. The ringing volume is way much better than Nokia 6300. Of course, all phones are not perfect. As I am so used to Nokia 6300, I miss having the blue light signal alert for missed calls or messages which the 6600i doesn't have. The phone's metal body gets hot after 10 mins of usage. This phone is quite heavy and so text messaging can involve a bit of a balancing ability of the fingers when texting with one hand. In all, I feel that the Nokia 6600i is great phone. From its appearance, it looks as if it were a combination of Nokia 6500 slide and Nokia 6280. :)

  • ya nice very nice

  • ya sure

  • why boring tell me ?

  • ya nokia is better :)

  • how tell me one language ? tell me

  • is very good 6600i nokia

  • The phone is very slow and uncomfortable to hold. The softkey and call/hang up buttons are too small for my thumb. The camera isn't great either eventhough it's 5mp with auto focus. The pics are snot sharp at all. The battery life is ok but not great. I'd give 6 out of 10 points and it's a disappointment for me.

  • i think its very good cause Nokia phone last long, its not every day people have to buy a new phone, so Nokia keep making good long lasting phones.

  • day by day there is enhancement in models. but this does not seem in this mobile. try to think in a different way because i love nokia. it must be 1st always.

  • Really wondering if all those Nokia engineers are sleeping all day, making new phones with old ones as usual with Nokia. Time to come up with new phones and S40 Touch phones, or Samsung will be Number One soon

  • BORING,boring, boring design.-

  • Stylish design , all specs for me are very nice what i see bad: no delete button no button for quick zooming voice is too low, i cant use it for alarm;and this is the worethest thing that makes me sell the phone. no shortcut for landscape photo we cant use the front camera for photo it is only for video calling

  • Nice Phone ... Delicate system ... fashion style ... and up to date ( new release ) ...

  • Does this have GPS as it not shown in specs but nokia maps are loaded in JAVA ?

  • dats really awesome i really luv it mannnnnnnn!!! sam.ahb

  • dats really awesome i really luv it mannnnnnnn!!! sam.ahb

  • There's zoom feature using the up and down keys, but no special button delicated to zooming or shutterclick.

  • Use to own a 6500 Slide so I'll take reference from it. More elegant design compared to the bulky 6500 slide. The inferface looks and works almost the same as the 6500. The speed is also as fast so messaging and stuff are a breeze. So weakness I found: - No shutter keys and volume keys, so you need to get use to it. - The sliders abit shaky for my set, I tried the dummy set and it's tight, not sure if it's my set only, it send to service center to tighten it. Other than that, it's looking good.

  • got released today..

  • well, first of all, average design on body but bad design on the functionality of this phone (Eg. camera) Bad Speaker and no noise canceling stereo headset. overall, gave it to my kid to play with and bought myself N97 and Samsung Omnia II for myself.

  • Its out in Jakarta, the price is Rp.3.8jt or USD380.. But it doesnt have a camera shutter key..and bad speaker. Better choose 6700classic with cheaper price.

  • how do u know wats available in india? do u sell ppl those phones?? don comment without knowin the reality dude.. there r so many i phone users includin me.. so get ur facts right kiddo!!

  • i think for my own view, nokia is better being user friendly. i know that other brands are fully equipped and has better features but oftentimes it gives the user a hard time to use it :)

  • why so many indians on this site?i fink the 6600 slide is much better only fing about this 1 is the camera for photo is a tiny bit better apart from that least 6600 black look nicer least they could hav designd the front 4 buttons betta on the 6600i go for 6600 slide much better

  • Hahahah

  • Realy It's amazing my friend and the price so!

  • 6600i slide available /Art Mobil.Bourgas,Bulgaria/-240 euro.

  • the earpiece plug in hole is shared with USB cable, so difficult to plug in

  • this cam records vids in which formats? mpeg-4 or 3gpp?

  • w902 or nokia6600i which is good?

  • next week am going to buy a phone...am looking claritiy and sound....which is good?se or nokia/?

  • hey hows this set compared to 6600? has the speaker volume improved?

  • The phone does not have 3.5mm Jack..

  • Why many people ask "when will be available in india"? Dear indians, you have cheap chinesse phone there so use that.

  • is there a zoom in zoom out button for the camera?

  • When is Nokia 6600i slider expected to be available in the Indian Market? I read that it has already been launched here, but still no news on the Nokia India website.

  • Well, how do you know if it's overpriced or not. The price isn't even on GSMArena and on the Nokia website.

  • Its not a tad closer to the superb original-Nokia 6600.

  • i wanna know when tis pretty phone will be released in egypt, i have now the 66oo slide and i like it so much , i just want this 6600i cause of the extended memory card that it can accomodate, i keep asking here in nokia agents when it will be available, they don't know, can anybody help me?

  • it is overpriced..

  • Hmmm.. What a beauty. But where is the shutter key? Also I don't see any toggle button to zoom those images. I guess I'll have to wait for the nokia thresher a bit more, and see what it has to offer before committing on this mobile once it's available.

  • thank you

  • How coast this phone in euro ?

  • wow it's really great and i find it pretty

  • Just read the said statements... Its clearly 5 mp n0t 3.2 , tsk tsk

  • cant u get a gud mob....

  • It's 40s

  • we want this as s60 please nokia, if it isnt make it one!!!!

  • Love this phone, it's small and compact with things I needed at work esp the 3.2 camera. I got hold of this from a shop and planning to buy by next week.

  • it is a series40 device, buddy.

  • look at the screens ... that's definately s40...sorry for dissapointing you

  • is s40 software and no gps tuner.compared with 6700,6600i has video call,but no gps,no hsdpa,hsupa,like 6700. hard to choose

  • what is the OS version used???? is it s60 or s40????? hope it is s60 v3.....

  • Take a closer look to the pictures(especially the black one)..this phone doesnt have any camera shutter key

  • this is not a good phone its sound quality is not so good like motorola A810 battery backup is also not good cost is also very high.........i suggest all freinds not to buy this.................

  • You lot are a bunch of SPOONS. Make some valid comments about this handset if you have it and stop messing about.

  • it is a really superb phone.it will cost around Rs.14000 in india.i am going to buy this phone for sure.

  • it is just exellent

  • It is smooth not smoth

  • soft and smoth

  • sweet and sophisticated mobile phone for gals.

  • This is a 5 Mega Pixels phone. Look at the picture of the phone, it's clearly stated 5 Mega Pixels, not 3.2 Mega Pixels.

  • It's a 5 Mega Pixels Phone. Look at the photo of the phone, it stated 5 Mega Pixels, not 3.2 Mega Pixels.

  • fabulous phone !!

  • The phone is superb but whats the cost in mauritan RS? Is it available in the market?

  • Gsm this phone only has 3.2 meg camera not 5 as stated above

  • may be u r talking about the ooold set.this one is totally different .check it out for urself.

  • is nokia 6600i a good phone.

  • Does anybody know where this beautiful phone is made Finland orChina,cause lately most Nokia phones r made in China that is why low price

  • Look the phone Is......6600i slide and NOT 6600 pls get the difference.

  • Now hardly anyone will be totally shocked about that but when it gets official, it can still make it in the news. The hotly anticipated Palm Pre smartphone will sport iTunes support, once it appears on the market...

  • sorry... wrong comment...

  • excuse me... there is no slide feature in former 6600...

  • come on you are the world leader, try some thing different hand sets.see the followers like SE,SAMSUNG

  • nokia is the best handset for use

  • how much would it cost upto

  • i already have that on my n95. Just commenting on how nice this phone looks,better then e66 but thats my opinion. wifi and GPS would compliment this phone all the more!

  • Whn will NOKIA launch handsets wth differnt designs & features..SE & Samsung rocks whn u compare this feature..I use NOKIA but they need to wake up

  • If you want that, get the E66...

  • of course nokia

  • Excellent looking phone, but it needs wi fi! And maybe GPS.

  • Nokia 6600i.. sleek and friendly.. look is better than this SE particular one.

  • 6600i unless music and gps are important for you.

  • I need a phone.Plz help me decide which one from the 2? 1. SE W705 2. Nokia 6600i

  • well. i had the nokia 6600 slide.. quite a unworthy phone .Well,the only thing that this Nokia6600i have is the 5.0 megapixel camera.Other weak features that are in Nokia 6600 slide are all in the 6600i. so just keep off and buy a phone which has being tested and proved worthy. Keep of... These fake phones are produced by the finns in order to fight the credit crunch.

  • sorry brother,i don't know its cost.

  • Fair Price..NIce black but i like camera front. Camera behide not easy to take pic of Myself..

  • 15000

  • hey any one know hw much it cost??...

  • the best value for money !!!

  • SE W995,X1 n Idou alr have 3.5mm audio jack...

  • This is a very classy looking phone. I have the 6600 slide and wouldnt mind getting the grey 6600i.

  • Most people in Egypt Requests from Nokia Mobile multi-sim cards beacause they trust [email protected]

  • I think disply of this phone is 240 x 320 pixels, 2.6 inches ! ! !

  • Really I need that mobile...I think it is the best till now until next month..everyone in Egypt waiting this mobile..I hope that the price is affordable to all...

  • pfffff what you like so much no wlan

  • Its true that nokis is fail for designing new looks,anyways i m using nokia but like sonyericssion mobile design.I do hope nokia corp will open eyes soon.

  • great midclass phone :) compact and slick design, plus nice features!

  • how i wish that i have this one! :c

  • Why it is not have wifi?

  • very goog joke.......................

  • the last phone phome the phone list which comed to croatia was 7100 supernova

  • i think this phone is good........

  • you are blind

  • no its speakers r not like 6233...

  • nokia can u learn how to design new model. wat is the difference of this phone to the 6600 slide except of the letter i ... epic failed

  • Yeah none of their phones, except pretty much every medium to high range phone released within the last year.

  • Click on the picture for a more and clearer view. The design is not boring. I do believe you are going to buy this phone. How many can you use a time. We should all try to give kudus rather unnecessary criticisms. Thanks.

  • sure it will be... i like it so much

  • the phone is toooooooooooop. i like it so much ooooooohhhhhhh

  • Does it sync with outlook?

  • They should try to change the design. It's booring.

  • What about its speakers ? is it powerful like 6233 ?

  • Nokia is improving all the time. Competitors be aware!

  • the upgrade is only 5mp n the material..the design is still the same..but why no wifi n 3.5g??better choose 6260..

  • battery life is only 4 hours ahahahhaahhaah. Same old cra...p!

  • Interesting Nokia putting 3.5mm jack on all devices, on the other hand SonyEricsson havnt got any with them on.

  • 5 mp cam whith video vga@15.? . .

  • nice phone hope it is affordable to customers go nokia..

  • i can't see why nokia came out with this phone. it's almost identical to , only that 6600i misses the WLAN and GPS. i can say though, the new grey colour is pretty nice, but they could have kept the specs as 6260 slide, and name it 6260i.

  • gud looking phone but no wifi

  • Why this phone? The typical female buyer of this phone doesn't care at all about 3,2 mpix or 5 mpix camera. They should make a complete new phone.

  • no innovation!

  • very nice, this phone will be a hit like 6300.

  • no GPS.....

  • looks aighttttteeee!

  • one sexy phone

  • god looking phone + Accelerometer, but pure video

  • cud hv bn more attractive

  • ohh i didn't even see that it lacks Wi-Fi!! WTF?? Add that too!!!

  • add S60, GPS, Digital Compass and we can talk.

  • hum only the 5mpx and 3,5mm jack improved btw i still prefer the 6600 slide . but not bad at all

  • niiiiicceee!!!!!

  • Nice looking phone...

  • Its good, but needs wifi for me to want to buy it.. you know what i mean?

  • Really great phone and beautiful .but 6600 is old name 6510 or 6520 or 6560

  • I don;t get on what basis the phone is named. why there are so many 6600s?? do they have something else in common apart from name??

  • Looks much better

  • This is all about style.this my next phone for sure.

  • At last....the successor to the mighty 6600....!!!
