📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 6600 is a smartphone introduced on June 16, 2003 by Nokia, costing approximately &eur;o;600 when released in October 2003. It was Nokia’s high-end model of the 6xxx Classic Business Series. At the time of release, it was the most advanced product ever launched by Nokia, and it runs on Symbian OS 7.0s (Series 60 2nd Edition). It also featured a VGA camera, a music player and video player, Bluetooth and extended storage by memory card, being the second non-Communicator to do so (after the Nokia 3650).
The model is still in use in many parts of the world and has proved to be a durable product. By many users it is considered as the trend setter phone which proved to be a bright milestone for its manufacturer. The phone was intended to replace the popular 6310i as the predominant business class model in the Nokia range. It should not be confused with the newer Nokia 6600 fold, Nokia 6600 slide and Nokia 6600i phones which have little resemblance to the original 6600. A variant of the Nokia 6600 was launched in the U.S. market as the Nokia 6620.
During its lifespan, the 6600 sold 150 million units (along with Nokia 1200, Nokia 5230, Samsung E1100), making it one of the most successful phones to date.📝 Reviews when released: Mobile Review 🔗

🕵 Nokia Codename: Calimero
⏱ Life timer: 11h | 📦 Boxed: NO
📅 Release Year: 2004 | 💰 Release Price: 500$;
📊 Units Sold: ~6M
📰 Why this phone matters: The Nokia 6620 is a landmark Symbian Series 60 smartphone created specifically for the North American market, at a time when true smartphones were still rare outside Europe. Built in Finland and sold through Cingular Wireless, it delivered real multitasking, third-party application support, Bluetooth connectivity, MMC expansion, and an integrated camera in a compact candybar form. Unlike most Nokia smartphones of the era, the 6620 was never widely distributed in Europe, making original US carrier units exceptionally rare on this side of the Atlantic. More than just a regional variant, it represents a pivotal moment when Finnish smartphone engineering was successfully adapted to American carrier requirements, turning the 6620 into a true crossover classic and a highly desirable collector piece today.📝 Reviews when released: PCMag 🔗
