Early in may 2007 Nokia announced the releases of two phones, the 6500 classic and slide. Though both the phones belong to the same series, they are very different phones. The classic is a simple, slim phone, whilst the slide on the other hand is a bit on the heavy side but is a great phone that offers some really amazing features. Among the two phones, most people have voted the slide as the better phone.

Let us analyse the slide and see why it is the prefered phone of choice.

To begin with the Nokia 6500 slide mobile phone is a 3G slider phone. It comes in a black and silver casing. This cell phone comes with imaging features that are fairly easy to use which adds the fun element to this smooth phone. One of the best features of the phone is the 2.2 inch high colour screen that gives a 33.5mm x 44.7mm active display.

The display can show up to 16 million colours. The phone is not void of fashion; it is a good size for a slider phone. It weighs about 123 grams and is a solid and steady phone. Another great feature is the expandable memory that this amazing phone offers you. You can expand your phone memory to 4 Gbytes, if required. The phone doesn't come alone; along with it you get a charger, battery, USB cable, 256 Mbytes MiscroSDTM memory card, stereo head set and a TV out cable. What more can you possibly ask for?

The battery is great and comes with a standby of approximately 310-320 hours. The battery has a 900mAh capacity. If you are somebody who talks a lot on your mobile device then it is well worth choosing something like this as it is sure to outperform someof the other smartphones out there like the sony ericsson p900.

This phone is a 3G handset, this is something that is most definately required in todays mobile data world. It also boasts of a 3.2 mega pixel camera. The auto focus allows the owner to take clear shots. The phone allows its user to share and print photos easily with FlickrTM.
