Nokia 6500 slide mobile phone

 

It's amazing how Nokia can create two handsets with the same name and yet how they can be so very different in their approach. So is the slide the better of the two 6500 models, or is the classic the one that you should be going for? The Nokia 6500...

3 megapixel camera, HSDPA

Bulky, comes across as a poor man's N95

After playing with the Nokia 6500 slide for over a week, it merely comes across as a poor mans Nokia N95. The design is very similar, hence the reference, but the feature set no way near as fulfilling: no 5 megapixel camera, no dedicated music player,...

Nokia 6500 classic mobile phone

 

Nokia has two kinds of handsets, classically designed no fuss models and crazy bonkers break the boundaries stuff. The Nokia 6500 classic as the name might suggest is the former, but does that mean it should be ignored? We get phoning to find out. With...

Simple in its offering, 2 megapixel camera, stylish

Simple in its offering

With so many phones offering you megapixels this and music players that, the 6500 classic is a great handset for those who don't want to be fussed with all the extras.

Nokia 6500 Slide review

 

The 6500 Slide is the most expensive phone in the group, but it also feels the best made. Its metal front and rear and strongly sprung keyboard slide give an impression of high quality.

Nokia 6500 Slide Review

 

The 6500 Slide is one half of two new Nokia handsets, the other being the 6500 Classic. Both phones are more or less identical but the 6500 Slide is slightly more specced-up than its counterpart.What we…

Nokia 6500 Classic review

 

The new Nokia Slide is the member of the 6500 Series twosome with the feature fetish. But is it enough to divert attention away from its partner-in-crime?

Nokia 6500 Slide review -

 

Looks and feels great, and it's easy to use

It took us a while to work out how to remove the rear battery casing (there's a release button on top)

Nokia 6500

 

The 6500 is Nokia's first effort at creating a slim 3G phone that is available on worldwide markets (rather than trial, nation specific ones). It is a stylish, aluminium cased phone that is available in both Black and Bronze, so allowing you the choice...

As a 3G phone the 6500 Slide is ready to go on the internet, using the powerful Opera browser to allow the user to surf the internet at high speed, any time and pretty much anywhere (coverage allowing). The Nokia 6500 slide is an impressive phone, both...
