Strengths: Stylish look, 3.2-megapixel camera

Weaknesses: Frustrating to use

Despite the maximum efforts of its competitors, Nokia still has a stronghold in terms of designing phones as fashion accessories.

Unlike the Nokia 6500 classic phone, the Nokia 6500 is a good-looking slider mobile phone with video calling facility. The 6500 slide phone has data capabilities like Bluetooth, GPRS, EDGE and more, which means that it can be used worldwide. The display of this fully featured 3G phone is pretty large with a screen size of 2.2 inches. With 16 million display colours, the Nokia 6500 slide is one of the best camera phones in Nokia's range. Another important feature of this phone is the 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, auto focus and 8x digital zoom, which allows you to take high quality pictures.

As with most other handsets, the 6500 slide phone relies on its MicroSD card slot for storage. The Nokia 6500 Slide comes with a TV-out function, which allows you to share pictures and videos with your family and friends in a bigger screen. In addition, the slider includes schedule manager options like a calendar, stopwatch, alarm and entertainment quotient qualifiers like music player, video recorder and radio.

The Nokia 6500 slide phone can assist you with its supreme battery time of 320 hours on standby and 6 hours talk time. The largest bugbear of the Nokia 6500 slide phone is its non user-friendly and difficult operations. Otherwise, the phone is quite a decent performer.
Having a low price tag, the Nokia 6500 slide phone is a practical alternative to more expensive N-series mobile phones.
