With it’s metal keypad and casing (that’s real metal – not metal-effect, or metal-esque) this thing feels so right in your hand it’s untrue. It’s not light for its slim and trim size, at 112g, but that’s part of the point – this thing feels like the kind of phone a secret agent would use – discreet, sexy, but also very functional.

That’s not to say this the Nokia 6700 classic is lacking in any thing fancy. A fully fledged 3G with rocket-fast 10mbps HSDPA, it’s up there with some of the best smartphones, but it’s almost as though the features just come with a whisper. Nokia don’t want this to be a phone that comes with a troupe of singing and dancing announcers screaming about figures and numbers at stats. This is a phone you buy not to pull out at the pub and show of the 4.1-inch, carefully-hidden-WinMo interface or surround sound 3D HD G-sensor controlled games. This is a phone for someone who uses their phone as and when they need it, the kind of person who actually steps away from the table to use it. This is a phone for someone with a bit of class. It most definitely is not a phone for Katie Price. Check out Nokia’s official page for more specs, or have a little look at this Nokia 6700 review.
