We like:
Large keys on keypad; bright screen; expandable microSD slot
We don't like:
Lack of bundled microSD card; occasionally quiet audio on calls; small font on main screen; potential problems with the spring-loaded hinge
CNET UK judgement:
The Nokia 6131 is easy to use due to its large keys and bright screen. With an expandable microSD slot, storage isn't a problem and communicating with other devices is also made easy by the Bluetooth, EDGE, infrared and GPRS connectivity. Overall this phone is what Nokia should focus on: simple-to-use phones with good feature sets
