"The best phone I have ever used!"
Pros: Joy stick, Sturdy Nokia Text Messaging application, Tons of personalization offer
Cons: Slightly bulky, battery could have been better
Summary: Greetings to everyone. Before I submit my review, let me establish some credibility by letting all of you know that I have used a lot of phones including Nokia 3390, Nokia 3395, Samsung R225M, Siemens M55, Samsung E715, Sony Ericsson T610 and Motorola V551. Now, the Nokia 6600 is the best phone I have used because of the following reasons:
Text Messaging: I am a heavy text user and there is nothing better than this phone for text input. The software is fast (What you type is what you see, no lag at all!). The multiple user sending option as well Multimedia settings are unparalleled.
Call clarity and reception: My house is in an area that gets very low reception and all my previous phones used to fail in some corners of the house. However, this phone gives me atleast 2 bars of coverage no matter where I am. Call clarity is perfect, no problems.
Personalization Options: I have downloaded multiple themes, ringtones and pictures with absolute ease. This phone is perfect to make a statement.
Camera: Although the camera could be better, it still works fine. My philosophy is that if you want to take perfect pictures... don't depend on your phone, buy a camera! Depending on your phone to take good pictures is like depending on your car to cook your food. It ain't gonna happen! Anyway, camera quality is extremely good when compared to other phones in this range.
Battery: The battery power could be better but what do you expect from a smart phone. Bottom line is show me a phone that has the same functions and longer battery life and I will delete this claim.
Expandable Memory: Not many phones in this range have an expandable memory setup. In this phone, the level of information is dependent on what size card you have. You want to store crazy amounts of data, buy a bigger card. Moreover, the phone comes with a 32 MB card and 6MB of internal memory. What more do you want?
Connectivity: Perfect bluetooth application, infra-red, modem...what else would you like?
I can go on and on but bottom line is that this phone has combined the best features of all the phones I have bought and roled it into one.
And for all those people who have trouble navigating the screen... This phone is made for people who are ready to adapt to newer technology. That is why it is called a smart phone. I would suggest those of you who have trouble to buy a simpler phone like the Nokia 3395. New technology is not for you.
Overall, this phone works perfectly for my lifestyle and needs. Go get one yourself!

I`ve had Nokia 6600 for about 6 months. After 6 months: couldn`t receive phone calls at all; couldn`t send any text messages; bluetooth was giving me hard time; buttons 1, 2, 3 and 0 were working sometimes and sometimes not. Also, Symbian OS was TOO SLOW to operate with ordinary functions.
Basicaly - PAID $200 (nokia 6600-TMOBILE) for NOTHING. Never going to buy NOKIA product in my whole life!!! -
Agree 100%!!!!!!!!
