At the first glance, this phone looks to be quite similar to the 7210. The stylish shell ensures that it is a winner in boardroom and at the dinner table. Its buttons are one of the most appealing ever on a mobile phone. They angle beautifully in opposing directions. The area around the screen is chromed to match the buttons.

The 6610 comes with polyphonic ringtones, built-in infrared connectivity and a hands-free speaker. The radio reception is reasonably clear when played through the loudspeaker, and it is even better through the headset. The standard clock and calculator are enhanced by the presence of a new stopwatch function.
