Nokia 6500 Slide Preview

by User ImageJayvee on May 5th, 2008

Nokia N6500

Went on a provincial tour over the weekend and one of the guys on board was toting the 6500 slide phone. According to him this was out late May of 2008. Some sites have labeled this particular model as an Nseries phone, calling it the N6500 - but it isn’t as it’s using the new Series 40 platform. The 6500 slide comes with a 3.2MP camera (the Nokia site claims a 2MP camera but this one has 3.2MP — I’ll honestly have to confirm this) and a revamped user interface. As you can see from the photos, the menu screen is now located at the bottom of the LCD screen. They also changed some parts of the menu like the SMS screen, but for the most part - is really aesthetic.

The 6500 slide is rather handy and thin. It’s comparatively a slightly edgier version of the classic slider phones of Nokia, maybe because of the aluminum finish. It comes with the usual bravado - 1GB of internal memory, Bluetooth, 3G and music player. overall a good phone as it is both practical and elegant, and I must add an updated slider model for Nokia.

Downsides? A little UI lag here and there.
