Advantages: Good mix of features including high end features like 3.2MP autofocus camera and TV-out Disadvantages: No wifi, Slight overheating
The Nokia 6500 slide is a slider phone released in early 2008. It was announced in 2007 as part of the Nokia6500Series - which also includes the Nokia 6500 classic which has slightly less features. The 6500 series with its stainless steel design proved to be a success, and led to the 6600 series (consisting of the 6600 classic and the 6600slide) and the as yet unreleased 6600i series.
--- the BASICS ---
The 6500s is a 3G phone characterised by a stainless steel design. It has some advanced features like an autofocus Carl Zeiss 3.2MP camera, TV-out connectivity coupled with the bread and butter of other phones including FM radio, turbo 3G internet, multimedia player etc. It runs on Series 40 operating system and is not a smartphone (i.e. it does not support 2 or more applications running at the same time). There is about 20Mb memory ...
Advantages: Reliable, good many features, simple to use Disadvantages: Short battery life and the appearance is a bit cheap looking
My Samsung Tocco and I departed company a few weeks ago as it decided it just didn't want to work anymore! This was one of the more expensive phones on the market at present, but considering it gave up the ghost after just 3 months I decided I would downgrade to a cheaper, but more reliable phone. I scoured the catalogue and decided on the Nokia 3600 slide phone.
~The phone Itself~
I am a big fan of Nokia phones as I have owned a few and have never had reliability problems with them (touch wood!). I find Nokia phones very stylish, yet simple to use. They contain a lot of useful features, but without going over the top. I'm not a fan of phones that you pay a lot of money for that contain a lot of completely useless features.
The Nokia 3600 slide has many integrated features which are listed below:-
Still camera
Video camera ...
Advantages: Looks good, easy to use Disadvantages: None Really
After recently getting rid of my old Orange contract and moving to O2 I decided to get a new phone as well. After much deliberation I decided on the Nokia 6500 slide in black. I could have got the silver phone at a much cheaper price but I decided that the black one looked too good to turn down.
First Impressions
If you look at the phone from a top down view you will see that the screen is quite big. Infact it is 2.2 inches which is fairly big. Below the screen are four buttons as well as 4 directional buttons in silver. The bottom two buttons are the main calling buttons. The one on the bottom left is the green "call" button which is used to dial a number you've typed in or look at the recent call list. The one on the bottom right is the "end call" button which ends calls and, when in the menu, takes you back to the home screen ...
