Here we have the Nokia 2610, another phone from Nokia's budget range. And boy, is it a beauty, packed with features, and the tools to make your phone really personal.

Budget Marvel

We have to hand it to Nokia. When they set their mind to conquering the budget phone market, they don't mess about. In its roster of budget phones, we have this little beauty, the 2610.

So, what sets this phone apart from its cousins in the budget phone market.

Looks, Brains

Well, for starters, Nokia have really outdone themselves, quality-wise. The 2610 is a rock solid handset, with a classic, ergonomic design. All in all, you've got a phone that is comfortable to hold, with the keypad in just the right place. That makes it a lovely phone to actually use, with a tactile finish that feels rather nice on the fingertips.

Of course, that's not all. If the 2610 was all looks and no brains, well, you wouldn't want to live with it, would you?

Getting Animated

No worries, there, then, as the Nokia 2610 is as good to use as it is to hold. The animated menus making finding what you need a snap, and it's kind of fun to see the menu icons jiggling away to themselves as you roll the cursor over them. Everything is laid out as intuitively as you'd expect from a Nokia phone, so it's going to be a breeze finding your way about the phone.

Crowd Pleaser

Now throw in mp3 ringtones, the ability to record your own ringtones, with the built-in voice recorder (exactly what you need to make your phone really personal) and a raft of personalisation options to make your phone what you want it to be, and you get a phone destined to put a big grin on your face. You get the Nokia 2610.
