i am not asking the difference in 6600 and 6620

i know they funtion
i want to know that i have have seen nokia6600 with different prices

the phone which was MADE IN FINLAND WAS MORE
the phone which was MADE BY NOKIA WAS LESS

i am asking is there any difference in the two.
the difference i have notice was some tones was diff and the wallpaper was different.

Different retailers/resellers sell the same phone models at different prices, because they are buying them at different times in different size of lots and selling them through different channels and at different locations, and possibly with different promotions/discounts/campaings in effect for different reasons. Normal rules of commerce at play, in other words.

The phones and specifications are the same, individual components may slightly vary as they may come from different batches and/or different component providers to Nokia.

Nokia has factories all over the world. Most can probably make all models, but all may not be manufacturing every models simultaneously; supply & demand and other manufacuring and logistic reasons at play.

mine is made in finland and i have had it since november. before the launch dates they were imported from finland so i imagine the made in finland ones were the first made ones. probably made by nokia have had its components made all over the place (eg screen in china, keypad in phillipines etc,) whilst made in finland has only been made in finlanbd
