Description: It's been so long since we've reviewed a simple, candy bar phone from Nokia that we almost forgot what they look like. Of course, that's a bit strange considering Nokia built its reputation on basic phones, but lately we've been preoccupied with the company's fancy, design-centric handsets such as the N95 and the 7390. Yet Cingular has pulled an oldie-but-goody out of its hat with the Nokia 2610. Exceedingly simple in form and function, the 2610 is a solid option for anyone who just wants to make a call. Call quality wasn't perfect, but it is acceptable. It's also cheap, at $19 with service.

Design

The Nokia 2610 is couldn't have a more basic form factor. At 4.09x1.69x0.71 inches, it has a compact candy bar shape that slips easily into a pocket or bag. It's also relatively light at 3.21 ounces, and it has a comfortable feel in the hand. The exterior black-and-gray color scheme is attractively subdued, while the silver keys provide a nice contrast. Like most basic phones, the 2610's outside casing feels a bit cheap but some of exterior areas have a slight rubberized texture.
