      I had this phone for nearly 7 months and it never gave me any problems at all. I love this phone coz' people tends to stare at it when I'm using it even though it's not a high-end phone.

          I've had my 6170 and although I love the design - sleek steel, solid weight and flip style, Iv'e had to many problems. The battery life is 48 hours even with no calls, the key pad freezes and to top it all the mimi screen bled and I was told that I had dropped it so they would not be fixing any of the faults (but they kept the phone for three weeks anyway!) I have not dropped my phone and am very angry and frustrated! So my advice is to ignore the attractiveness and go for something ugly but reliable - bit like micha barton v kathy bates - we know which one gives a better performance she just looks a bit crap!

                it's a brilliant phone sure the memory might be a little small but when you buy a phone you look at the specs. it's great it has a good screen size and works great. althou it could do with bluetooth. the steel looks and feels awesum

                  actually no most of nokia have have internal antennas, and they have better reception than samgsung sony ericsson or motorolas that actually did. that reception problem its probably your service. nokia is known for having incredible reception. so nokia fan what the hell are you talking about?

                    TO NOKIA FAN:
                    I agree with you very much!
                    This phone would be perfect if not an internal antenna design flaw and unnecessary VGA Camera Junk and unnecessary color screen junk!

                    6170 Is almost perfect but 20% reception lack is a HUGE CON!-For this phone!
                    NOKIA: STOP TAKING BAD SAMPLES FROM SONY!
                    Internal antenna must be under the batterry like on all of your other phones!

                          I am very disappointed with this phone. Initially I was very happy but after 7 months the characters began to fall off the key pad and despite numerous requests to Nokia over '6' weeks - no repair (part not available!!??) or replacement option just a dud phone and below average customer service from Nokia!

                              Hi everyone.Just wanna say a pathetic fone from Nokia.Nokia seems to rest on its past achivements.

                                SOME CORRECTIONS:
                                Actually the internal antenna is under the battery and then under the simcard! WHAT A STUPID DESIGN! (and it's all intentionally, because Nokia was so much in a rush to pump out a new model that didn't care about 20% of reception)

                                WHY DIDN'T GSM ARENA GAVE THIS PHONE A RECEPTION TEST?????, like for example http://www.mobileburn.com usually does.

                                WELL, NOW GSM ARENA YOU KNOW that next time you see the internal antenna is under the simcard or not visible, that means POOR RECEPTION! (without any special testing).

                                  wow wow...this is a great phone.
                                  Although the memory is very small it is quite sufficient for normal usage...
                                  the feeling of holding the phone is oso not bad.
                                  I have been using this phone for one yr n im very satisfied with the functions, it nv let mi down.
                                  My phone had nv been send for repairing b4...although i dropped it countless time n the surface is still alrite...
                                  YEAH!!

                                    WHY DOES INTERNAL ANTENA is hidden too deep under the plastic board? That makes the signal on this phone 20% weaker than on all other Nokia phones!

                                    EVERY OTHER NOKIA, if you look under the battery has internal antenna visibly open, so why not the 6170?! This 20% signal difference wouldn't be an issue if we didn't have the building with very low reception in USA.

                                    OTHER THAN THIS WEIRD THING, this phone is PERFECT!

                                        The lens on my 6170 is hazy, and seems to have dust inside. Subsequently all the images I take are blurry and very low quality. Anyone got the same problem? Or know a cure? Aussieland
