Mobile phones have grown from just talking devices to multipurpose devices that we rely on in our daily lives. We now even have niche models that are geared towards one specific role above all others making it just a little difficult for us to pick out that perfect phone. So, what has Nokia done with the 6555? Well, they made it that jack of all trades. They didn’t make it in some weird crazy shape or have a keyboard geared to users who message but for the mass population. So, can this little multipurpose device still thrive when there are so many niche devices? Well, let’s take a look.

It seems like the 6555b is doing its best to outperform an outdated package. Messaging will never be ideal on a numeric 12-keypad, TV will never be ideal on such a tiny screen, and without a solid music service or intuitive interface, the 6555b drops the ball on the one thing it probably could have done well, being a music player. That being said, messaging performed well in spite of its hardware limitations, and Nokia was smart enough to make commonly used features like speakerphone, Bluetooth and the music player easily and quickly accessible from the home screen

Nokia 6555 Reviews From cnet

The good: The Nokia 6555 offers a stylish and user-friendly design and a broad range of features including Bluetooth, 3G compatibility, and support for AT&T Push-to-Talk network. What’s more, we liked the call quality.

The bad: The Nokia 6555 had disappointing picture quality, and the speakerphone volume was rather low. It’s also missing an FM radio and the battery life was poor.

The bottom line: The Nokia 6555 combines eye-catching design, a generous feature set, and admirable call quality into one satisfying device.
