The Nokia 2600 Classic sure doesn’t feel shy when it comes to looks. The front panel (screen and keypad) is a mix of 2 colours, which change from one to the other as it goes up. The 5 way navigation key as well as the middle column of keys are circled with an orange strip, which lends it a very cool feel. The keypad is fairly spacious, which means that texters won’t have too much of a problem. The side of the phone is decked in the colour which you select when purchasing it. The sides of the phone doesn’t have any keys or anything as such, but just a plain line running through it. The back of the phone has the word NOKIA printed vertically. The top centre hosts the camera and the portrait mirror, something pioneered with the Samsung D500. The bottom left of the Nokia 2600 Classic has the speaker, which has a very cool look, more like as if a cat has scratched the back!

The Nokia 2600 Classic is clearly a great phone which is bound to appeal to an extremely audience due to its modern and hip looks. The specifications sheet doesn’t pale too much in comparison to the price and the phone is sure to get a good fan following!
