Samsungandnokia_1We’re all accustomed to funky designs from Nokia, so this latest model really threw me off! They obviously ripped off Samsung with this design. Don’t get me wrong, I love Nokia phones, but this is a bit much for me. Two years ago Nokia said they’d never make flip phones, then their sales started to drop and they caved into making clamshells. For example – the unsuccessful Nokia 6260,  and the recent 7270 & 6170. Despite the fact that this new Nokia 6101 phone has a rip off design, it reportedly has some good features like Push-to-talk. And it’ll probably have a great speakerphone and reception which is common in Nokia phones. Of course it’ll be a while till we see it here in the U.S., if we ever do get to see it here. So why do I love Nokia so much? They use one of the simplest and fastest operating systems out there. I’ve also owned several of their phones and have always been happy with them.
