Nokia 6131 Review

The Nokia 6131 is a comfortable & slim mobile phone with a fold opening mechanism. The flip opening mechanism can be opened with one touch from the user which is a very smooth experience. The 6131 has a very stylish & compact handset which is available in four colours which include black, white, red & sand. The coloured handset comes with a soft to touch paint finish which makes the handset very tactile. The 6131 weighs 112 grams which is not light but the handset feels solid & sturdy for having the extra weight. The size of the handset is 92 x 48 x 20 mm which will feel great in the users hand. The Nokia 6131 comes from the same family as the Nokia 6136 & the Nokia 6125 & although all these phone have a flip opening mechanism they are very individual with reference to their integrated features.

The phone has dual colour screen & the internal screen comes with a beautiful TFT QVGA 16.7 million true colour display (320 x 240 pixels). The external screen comes with a TFT 262k colour display (128 x 160 pixels) which is very colourful & clear. The internal & external screens can be used as full screen viewfinders when the user is taking normal photos & self portraits.
