Not much about the 6555 sets it apart from other phones with respect to calling features. Hitting the send key brings up a list of recent calls. They can also be accessed from the main menu, or the shortcut bar if you so choose. When viewing call history, selecting a number and hitting the send key calls that number. Or, if you hit the options key (left function button), you have a tidy little list of actions to take, including send a message, add to contacts, delete or find the time and duration of the call. Accessing calls from the main menu segregates the calls into lists of missed, received, made and so on. You can also check your data counter and packet data time.

It was a little clunky to add contacts one at a time if you're not syncing them from a PC or SIM card - or beaming the contacts from another phone via Bluetooth. It was about 4 clicks until you get to a screen to actually type in a name and number. Once you have a basic contact built, you can then choose to add "details", which are email addresses, more numbers, video, ring tones, web address, company, notes and so on. The amount of information you can store in each contact is almost unlimited.

Once your contact list is set, typing in a name auto sorts the names and helps you find contacts quickly. When you've found the contact you are looking for, hitting the center of the D-pad will open the contact, hitting the send key will call them. With the contact open, hitting the center of the D-pad calls the contact, and the left function key allows you to open up a list of actions you might take with that contact, be it send them a message, edit their details or save the contact somewhere else.
