Nokia 6500 slide Reviews

I bought this phone for my partner who wanted a good phone with an OK camera and a lot of storage for his music. The Nokia 6500 slide looks like the perfect phone on the surface but there are a few hitches. First though I will explain some of its specs. ~Appearance/Colour~ The phone looks quite expensive. It is available in either ...  Read the complete review

The Nokia 6500 slide is a phone with some excellent pros but some significant cons as well. I'll start with the good though and to be honest the good is great. The phone looks fantastic with it's sleek metallic finish and is incredibly durable to bumps and drops. The screen is large and very clear which is a big advantage when a phone has a camera ...  Read the complete review

I had this phone free with my mobile phone contract 12 months ago and it is by far the worst phone I have ever owned (and believe me I've had a lot). The problems started soon after I got it and have got worse over the last three months. The screen freezes while I am using it and it switches itself off mid phone call. After it has ...  Read the complete review

This was my first mobile phone for a while. It did not take me long to get used to it. Everything such as changing the ring tone or wall paper was very simple. The phone itself was a very nice looking phone. It had a metal case. And fitted in my hand really well, the slide function was smooth but only for people who are happy with sliding phones. ...  Read the complete review

I have the black version of this phone, but i think that is one of, if not the best phone i have ever had. i have used nokia phones for quite a while now and have found that they are one of the best makes iv ever used, i have tryed other makes like LG and Samsung but to me they dont compare to a good old nokia. This model isnt one of the top speck ...  Read the complete review

I got this phone about four months ago. It seemed to work very well to begin with. It was fast, easy to work, had a good camera and it looked nice. Also it was my first contract phone and I had a great deal from Orange that included unlimited texts, 300 minutes and internet for only £15 pounds a month. But in the last month it has been slow and ...  Read the complete review

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 6600 slide) ...  Read the complete review

I have always had Nokia mobile ever since my very first phone. I did venture into having a Samsung, but have returned to a trusty Nokia. The Nokia 6500 Slide was a welcome replacement to my old phone and I was really excited when it arrived. It was chunky, shiny and really attractive to look at. I was so pleased with it. I ...  Read the complete review

This is probably the worst phone I ever had! I got this phone on contract with 3 mobile and when it arrived I was pleased as it looked smart and I liked the keypad on it. As soon as I turned this phone on there were problems but I just assumed they were teething problems as they weren't anything major...for example when I turned my phone off, it ...  Read the complete review

The Nokia 6500 is not only the worst Nokia i have had but also the worst phone. Don't get me wrong, i am a huge Nokia fan, but this phone gave me problems from the very start. I only had it 2 months before the screen began freezing up and it started switching itself off. When you get used to the phone and begin trying to go through the options ...  Read the complete review

I have always wanted to have one of these and I must admit I was a bit jealous when my borther got one of these for his birthday. Having seen what this beautiful piece of steely art can do, I have increasingly regretted my decision to have not gone for nokia when buying my last hand set. Despite what many think about this hand set's appearance and ...  Read the complete review

I've had this phone for a year now and it's been pretty reliable so far, it has a tendency to freeze sometimes if I have more than one reminder going off within a short time period and I don't clear them, then I usually have to remove the battery to unfreeze it, but this hasn't happened for a while and otherwise I've had no problems. I've read ...  Read the complete review

In modern terms, this phone is pretty basic, but in my opinion it has all the necessary features. Its very easy to use, the camera is very good and photos come out really well when uploaded onto a computer. The video playback isnt that great, but you cant expect that much from a phone camera. if you need good video then get a camera or camcorder. ...  Read the complete review

This is a fanitasic phone and by far the best I have had. As a nokia it has its standard easy to use menu's and layout options and is packed with other useful options to personalise it. However, I am far from technically minded and this is so easy to use. Its stylish design and because its a slider make it very compact. The camera is very good and ...  Read the complete review

This mobile phone is exactly the type of phone I need. This phone is easy to use and not over complicated. If you are like me and do not like the idea of a touch screen mobile then I would recommend this for you. It is a reliable phone with a long lasting battery life. I have had a contract phone now for 18 months and am yet still to have a ...  Read the complete review

Good quality phone but a huge downside is the fact that the back becomes loose very easily and then you have to selotape it up, not a good look. GPS is a brilliant feature which negates the need for a satnav. Battery life is not great as it only lasts for a day at most.

Ok, well my contact with Orange was up for renewal this month, and I had my heart set on the Samsung Tocco Ultra, but I then found out I had to pay £100 for it, and seeing as I tend to break phones quite easily, I thought better of spending that much money on a phone when I am paying £30 a month for my contract!!! So after much looking I found ...  Read the complete review

I have had my Nokia 6500 for nearly 18 months and am due for an upgrade next month. I don't really use my phone for much more that calling and texting so I don't need a really fancy phone. I have found this phone to be really easy to use. The slide function, as well as being very cool, prevents me from accidently calling people while it is is in ...  Read the complete review

I've had my Nokia 6500s for almost a year now and i have been troubled by it throughout that time. I was assured by my network thatthe phone is durable and reliable, without any complaints from satisfied cutomers. However, moving to university last september i found that two of my new housemates also had this phone and were experiencing problems. ...  Read the complete review

I have now had this phone for over a year and in general have no major complaints with it. So, the good points; It is (as I have found with all Nokia models that I have owned) very easy to use, the menu system is intuative and is able to be displayed in list or 'graph' form. It has the generic customisable ...  Read the complete review
