MyMaria says:
Nice! I guess this is one of the reasons why telcos are slashing down the prices of their FREE cellphones under their postpaid plans :)
oninmunoz says:
ang mahal naman.. eh symbian lang naman.. mag android nalang agad
Fleeb says:
What I want to know is the selling point of this model against comparable Android and WP7 phones.
Lezuric says:
dati akong taga hanga ng Nokia, sa tinagal tagal wala naman bago.. OS symbian pa din.. o kung hindi man Windows! lol.. Android rocks! Bye NOKILOSER!
Disruptor says:
Hey people, keep your eyes glued on Nokia on June 21st. Swipe is the new touch!
Jeric says:
At least hindi na over 20k… Pressure ata sila from android kasi affordable narin yung android eh.
fboi says:
Spell blah.. Lols ip4 for the win!! iOs rules!
pom says:
nah! samo samo nokia… huhummm…
Dan MD says:
IMHO, We’re in the Philippines… This phone will sell well on account that it is a Nokia device, with QWERTY, touchscreen, decent features, and a fair price point – much like the E71 and E72, which both enjoyed (more than) decent sale and life cycle.
While android is getting traction, Nokia still has enough grass roots to hold out its products in the Philippine Market.
Den says:
I got mine locally for P16,000. It’s pretty good upgrade for my E71 which I got for much more.
qosmio says:
nokia is going down,
Gary says:
Nokia pa…. Wait till next month, 9,000 na lang yang E6 na yan. Hahahahahahaha.
sherwood says:
They should check their phone designs..:(
joeyoliver says:
Go for the Nokia X7! I hear it’s SRP is around just 21k!
vince says:
Symbian is dead but accept the fact that before other OS did it on the first level, Symbian was and still be the King of Multitasking. Hope Android, Windos and especially iOS adapt that.

Expect the price to drop next month.
Tips. When buying a brandnew phone, wait after 1-2 months from the time the phone was first released, this will save you more on money.
Info says:
The Australian reports that Nokia Australia’s Managing Director, Chris Carr has said that Nokia will still continue to release Symbian phones in 2011, 2012 and those will continue to receive support for two years after (2014).
Chris Carr also says that Nokia is NOT tying themselves exclusively with Microsoft and says Symbian is far from dead (maybe on life support/terminal).
Just to repeat, Nokia will continue with Symbian as long as it remains profitable – Nokia commited to the long tail of Symbian. It’s just that now, focus has shifted towards Windows Phone. LONG LIVE SYMBIAN OS!
Kevin says:
I went to SM Megamall Cyberzone today and the E6 is available at numerous stores. The cheapest price I found was at Php 16,000. I wasn’t able to acquire a demo unit but I did try the dummy unit. It feels better to hold it than my E72. Android doesn’t have a candybar qwerty phone as good as this so I’m definitely gonna get this one!
jonaflormicfren says:
Another from Nokia.
PNAY says:
This unit cost only $330 in U.S. Almost all the prices here in the Philippines is too expensive and very unreasonable, the price should be atleast 13,500 and not 16,000. That’s why Philippine’s economy won’t grow. Too expensive cost of living while the salary is still low & will always be low for the next decade unless some good old president will do something about it. To: PNOY Nasa tamang daan ba ung dinadaanan mo? Kung hindi, wag muna kami isama pede?
