A solid, midrange phone that does little to distinguish itself, the Nokia 6170 will appeal to flip-phone fans who like Nokia's user interface and software. At first glance, the boxy 6170 looks and feels bulky, but it's really no bigger (3.5 by 1.8 by 0.9 inches) and not much heavier (4.3 ounces) than other flip phones, such as the Editors' Choice Motorola V551. The stippled, stainless-steel cover gives the 6170 a stylish, businesslike appeal. Flipping it open reveals a shiny interior and an excellent keypad—the keys aren't separated, but they're large and tactile. The chrome inside attracts fingerprints, but the textured outside does a better job of hiding them. Find out more at PC Mag about this flip phone from Nokia.
