Machine sizeis 109.8 x 45 x 11.2 mm with a weight of 116.5 grams. If you look at the reviews, users consider the Nokia 6700 Classic to be a phone with pleasant and comfortable external parameters. If you pay attention to the back of the case, you can tell that it is entirely made of special stainless steel. Such metal slightly cools the hand, causing pleasant sensations. Based on the color, the coating also changes. For example, in the chrome version there is a glossy surface, it may leave traces of scratches over time.
