The device is practically not afraid of dust, moisture and falls, shows a good reception level in conditions of a weak signal, which allows the company to produce the best phones of 2012 and lead the ratings. 
7. Nokia 6303i is a candy bar in a stylish stainless steel case. The weakest point, according to experts, was the low tightness of the hull. But the device is not afraid of overheating and falls.
