Nokia 6500 Slide Camera Phone

The Nokia 6500 Slide mobile phone is presented in an elegant brushed stainless steel finish and the slide mechanism is very smooth. To ensure the brushed stainless steel retains its timeless beauty, a unique hard coating has been applied to help prevent scuffs, scratches, and even fingerprints. Underneath the smart looking exterior is a high quality mobile phone packed with the latest features.

With the 6500 Slide the emphasis is on imaging and sharing. First, imaging. The Nokia 6500 is equipped with an excellent quality 3.2 megapixel camera, has auto focus and uses Carl Zeiss optics. The Slide is the first time such top of the range imaging capabilities such as Carl Zeiss optics have been found on a mid tier handset. The 6500 also has an 8 x digital zoom and a dual LED flash.

Once the image has been captured the emphasis is on sharing. After viewing captured images on the impressive 2.2″ 16 million colour QVGA screen, the Nokia 6500 Slide offers the ability to easily share, by email, with fast transfer over 3G, via Bluetooth, via picture messaging and even on a TV with the TV-out feature. The TV-out option even allows for 3G video calls to be viewed on the TV screen.

The 6500 Slide has 20MB on board memory, which can be expanded by the addition of a micro SD memory card, currently supporting up to 2GB. The phone also has a built in MP3 player, and supports Bluetooth 2.0 This allows you to listen to music using a compatible wireless Bluetooth headset, in full stereo sound.

The Nokia 6500 Slide is designed to stand out from the crowd. The precision engineering of the slide mechanism gives the handset a really solid feel, moving with a smooth, fluid action. The quality and build of the casing just oozes class, creating a decidedly upscale user impression.

UK online retailer of the year, Mobiles.co.uk, currently have some great offers on the 6500, with this superb mobile phone being free on many deals. Connect the phone to Orange and you can even get a free iPod Nano as well although sadly the Slide doesn’t yet qualify for their amazing free laptop offer.
