The Nokia 6600 is a mobile phone launched in the second quarter of 2003, costing approximately €600, was Nokia's high-end model of the 6xxx Classic Business Series of mobile phones. At the time of release, it was the most advanced product ever launched by Nokia. It is a smartphone running on the Symbian OS-based Nokia Series 60 platform. It should not be confused with the newer Nokia 6600 fold, Nokia 6600 slide and Nokia 6600i phones which have little resemblance to the original 6600.

A variant of the Nokia 6600 was launched in the U.S. market as the Nokia 6620.
