  • They don't make them like this anymore... This was the phone I used before trying a smartphone and the one I went back to after discovering I dislike smartphones. It's tough as bricks and one of the most beautiful phones ever made, with it's brushed steel casing. The Carl Zeiss camera is amazing for it's size, and I use a 32GB MicroSD card in it for storing all my music.

  • hi, is this handset a smart phone can whatsapp be downloaded.

  • I seldom write on this forum, but I would like to celebrating using 6500 slide for 5 years. I've been using it since March 2008. Since then , I took thousands of photos, record videos occasionally, and the quality is good. Note that the sound is louder than many phones, even better than my Xperia X10 smartphone! I created a shortcut to a music player and listen music daily, without a headphone. I also love the form factor of this phone. Above are the main reasons why I still use 6500 slide as my main phone and why my Xperia X10 put in my drawer!

  • This mobile is horrible, not recomended to anyone! I had one, wasn't working well from the begining, thought I had just snatched the one with serie problem but later on my boyfriend had same type which he passed on to me.Same problems and annoying useless item. Expensive and worthless, Nokia would watch out more for quality!

  • I am eager to have it because of it's incredible features and design.

  • I Love NOKIA 6500slide because, It Has Quality Sounds Carl Ziess Optics Camera very smart That's the reason why i love NOKIA 6500slide

  • Now,I am using Nokia 6500 slide,it's good to use.I like its style so much.

  • to Anonymous: there are workarounds to get your memory card from being read like removing your back cover and pushing up the small metal (going up) smoothly using a needle (this works for me best). the small metal is placed next to the camera lid. after doing so, replace the back cover and you can now access the memory card. goodluck. in addition to the memory card issue, taking out my nokia 6500 slide from a pouch while ringing disconnects the incoming caller. my unit has 10.00 firmware and i doubt if nokia even support new updates of this faulty unit.

  • how do you get/ access the memory card and the songs in it...?? My phone says no memory card and i have inserted 1GB memory card brand new also tried wi another phone and its gud(mem card)

  • reading comments here and praising nokia 6500 slide as one of the best phone nokia made is definitely not true (for me anyway). my experience with this handset is terribly not tolerable. why is everybody praising this phone is beyond me. this handset looks nice. that�s all about it. the phone has memory card problem. removing the back cover also disconnect the memory card. you cannot access it. what is nokia thinking? hello nokia.. the phone was released in 2007. why on earth nokia design a phone that have concept like this. it's really pain accessing your ringing tone and stuff like wallpaper and screensaver that's in the memory card, and when you remove the back cover, all of it renders to default setting. the only reason i bought this phone in the first place was to replace my dying nokia 6288 which is very good in all aspect which gave me good impression and excellent experience for 3 years of usage. unlike 6500 slide, nokia 6288 never had an issue of such. twice i sent my 6288 to repair shop and for a month it worked but have to give it up since replacing the LCD for 2 times cost me about 120 in US dollar. i miss my nokia 6288. i stopped from using nokia 6500 slide. planning to buy samsung instead.

  • The nokia 6500 is the best at his time . I learn more and more from it about 3g .

  • I wold like to connect my phone nokia 6500s with linux (kurumi4)!Is it possible?

  • I got this phone back in 2008 and upto date i like every moment with me cuz it was real worth buying. I would recommend it for anyone thinking of it. I would like to replace it with a similar in the event its worn out.

  • its the worest phone i ever purshase

  • i'am planning to buy that fone is it still in the market? and i just wondering how many hours the battery last?

  • Its been 3+ years since I have this phone, and it works exactly as it did on the day I bought it. Build quality solid, the display is/was excellent for its time the battery life is fantastic, the camera was quite good and overall it reeks of quality. Simple software makes it very reliable as well. Fantastic phone and I am a highly satisfied customer. I wonder what can be its replacement ? I searched around, and none quite satisfied me in the above mentioned (key)attributes, in its price range.

  • Had this phone for over 3 years. I changed the battery once. The old one became bloated up and prevented the detection of my microSD card because it uses a physical contact with the back cover to detect proper closure of the back cover. The other issue I had with it was the magnetic switch detection of the phone that turns the unit on/off. My phone pouch had a magnetic cover and it switch off the phone when I take it out of the pouch, ie. accidentally hangs up my incoming call. I fixed the problem by using a non-magnetic pouch. Other than these, the phone is great. I like the camera most, it has auto focus and I can take pictures at closer range and the photos come out very sharply focused. The casing is very robust, I dropped it many times and it still look great, amazing. Load the NIV and KJV bibles in it too, great!

  • How to use the front end cam in 3g

  • When I bought it I bought it as a temporary phone but now I don�t want to change this phone, It is having classy look and sleek design.

  • bought it in May of 2008. still working with absolutely no problems!!! best Nokia for me.

  • The Nokia 6500 slide is a stylish and good looking phone. It's features are, 2.2 inch 16.7M color display, TV-out for 3G TV video calling and TV conference, and 3.2Mpix camera with Carl Zeiss optics, auto focus and 8X digital zoom,which is a good replacement for a real digicam.

  • Had mine for more than two years. Faultless in every respect. Solid, smooth.

  • yes there is

  • i have this phone for over 2 years and still counting, bundled battery still kicking and lively, never had any problems, dropped it over and over due to carelessness, still working. The best nokia S40v5 for me...longevity and reliability...6500 slide does it.

  • Secondary camera not in use

  • Menu>>>Organiser>>>calculator

  • Still using mine, 2 years and 7 months (and counting). Never had a single problem with the slider. Biggest problem is the ageing battery expanded and pushes the rear stainless steel cover out, causing it to not press on something that indicates the cover is closed, resulting in the phone stop reading the memory card. Fix by either switching to a new battery or just put a piece of paper there. Solid phone :D

  • So far I only manage to use the front facing camera for video call.

  • Is this phone prone to slider problem? Is the slide mechanism of ths phone broke easily?..my n95 is prone to slidr pRoblem..I want to buy ths phone..pls tell me to those who have ths phone..tnx

  • its a ossom mobile....dos who hav it are damm lucky.....dose who feel its badd....its coz....dey dont kno hw to use it...dats it.....evry1 go die...

  • the camera is really good .....but not the battery!!!

  • Im using Nokia 6500s for about 1 year. My sincere advice was dont opt to buy this phone. Reason was the price is more compare to other sliding phones and weight is heavy as the body is covered by stainless steel. None of the spare parts can buy from NOKIA care for this phone. This is the oldest set. Instead of this u can go for any of the Sony ericsson mobile or micromax it was better than Nokia. this phone camera was not works as 3.2 mp camera.

  • I have the same problem! I know for sure that my memory card is not the problem!

  • There is a small metal pin next to the memory card slot - it is pressed by a metal piece inside your back panel. Bend the piece a little bit so that it presses the pin on the phone. Your memory card will be 'read' by the phone then. This worked for me.

Maybe they r just lucky or there is a particular batch of this fone dat has some factory fault. i bought mine early 2009 and av repaired it twice in less than 3 months of purchase. it keeps turning off and on on its own. i was so dissappointed Nokia has to make such silly mistake wiv this fone. i had friends too dat complain abt same shit. infact d last time i had to angrily abandone d fone at a Nokia care cos they claim waranty is voided dat sum kind of moisture entered inside. just collected d fone after 1 yr of abandonement. i wont recommend dis fone 4 anyone. i just feel Nokia ripped me off.

  • Finaly. Someone else who's encountered the same problems that i did with this shit of a product that nokia calls the 6500s If you look at my review from 2010-03-10 Rohan, you will see too i vented my frustration to the world about the 6500s. An utter piece of junk indeed! Sharp makes realy good phones that are made in Japan and are very reliable, and thats what i own now.

  • I bought this cellphone in 2ndhand condition several months ago and it is still work fine. The camera is the best part of this phone. It can produce nice photos although sometimes the color is not natural (bluish). The sound is good too. Overall, I like this phone and I planned to use it for long time. Thank you.

  • Superb phone. I am using it for last two years. I have not seen another phone with this much clarity both at night and day. Its sound is also good. This is really a great work from nokia

  • Ultimate phone with superb camera and music quality.

  • Friends.. I been using Nokia's ever since i started off with cell-fones, it was not too bad till i bought a new 6500s. This fone is probably the WORST handset i got till date, it just SUCKS bigtime. It reboots/freezes randomly, same even after a s/ware reflash. The back-cover im sure is a Design-Fault, its loose all the time causing loose-contact for memory-card. I've to use a rubber-band around the top if i want to access the data-card. Audio is bad. Battery life is even Worse. I cud just go on with this defects list. I kno atleast 3 other people with similar issues on their 6500s too. After paying Rs.13,000 i feel Nokia has cheated me with this Excuse for a fone. My advice- PLS DONT CONSIDER THE NOKIA-6500s, ITs A REALLY BAD HANDSET, TOTALY UNRELIABLE & FRUSTATING. NOKIA.. are u listening? Hello? Mera paisa waapas karo plzzz...!!!

  • can i use this phone out of indonesia ? such as singapore or china ?

  • rather strange... i would suggest to go for a software update...

  • This is by far the worst phone I have ever ever used. Completely unreliable and far too easily breakable and damageable. Would never recommend to anyone so if your considering buying it..... DONT!!!

  • Please where can i change my messages settings from phone to memory card to save them because internal memory to small. And how can i fix the java/lang memory problem ? Dont want to download games.

  • pls can any one help me.....i just got this fone..nd mine is not reading my memory card....wat do i do?

  • regarding your memory on 6500 slide... the gold contact in between the camera and the sim card must touch the clip on the back cover of your phone. that is the clip thing on the side of the hole for the camera on your stainless back cover... when you make it on contact the phone will read your memory card. it is because it is a preventive measure to make sure that you are using the phone with the covers on and making the memory card safely removed from the phone... hope this helps... i have one too, same problem as yours and cellphone repairman cant fix it. i just found it by myself... nice phone, take good care of it, good camera... i from the philippines...

  • r the games downloadable? Does it support java

  • Thanks a lot anony mouse for replyng... As there is no option for sound in camera settings so i hv tried the other method. And restored factory settings twice bt it did not work either. Plz tell me any other method to mute the camera sound. With sound i am unable to use my camera at many places so gyz help me.

  • Attention all users who have a 'memory card not detected problem': It is a common hardware problem. The fix is to press the metal part next the camera window, so that its height is enuf to push the memory card hinge. Please be careful in doing so. i cannot be held repsonsible for any loss/damgage.

  • Hi! Go to Camera > Options > Camera Sounds > Off. If this does not work, Menu > Settings > Rest. Factory Settings > Restore Settings Only.

  • mine is just like u.but it is bcoz i do mms for long time and the battery become hot. the housing is made from stainless steel, so it became bent/crooked at behind. and there is a little steel at behind cover and the function is to sensing whether the cover is at the place, so that it start to detect your memory card. try to bend it back just a little.its work for me.try it.gud luck!

  • sattled my nokia 6500s cannot read memory card problem - my brother took my phone to his friend's shop to check the phone and found out that the battery is the cause of this problem. it seams that the battery has blotted and expended causing the memory card area to be effected and the rear cover cannot be closed perfectly. after installing/replacing with a new battery, the memory card can be read. will be using back my 6500s soon after my brother test it for another week or two, really love this phone and will keep on using it as long as possible, cheers.

  • i have my n6500s for 3 years now and still working great...

  • for memory card reading problem: when you take off rear cover, the memory card connection wire is located just to the right of the camera lens (between camera and memory card slot). this solution definitely works (i'm a phone dealer so i know)

  • plz Bardock can you tell me where is that wire I cant find it

  • plz can any body tell me how should i avoid the memory problem,someone said that there is a small wire between the camera and the memory card which is responsible for the memory card where is that wire? plz help

  • now i am facing a lot of problems with this phone, key problem is one of the major prob.

  • It's only gud while new, when you buy it no tells abt the harsels of always updating software it just freeze or switches it self of

  • it is good one compare with others.it consisting of good sound quality and camera

  • its really good ! i have and 6500s :D

  • i can see many 'reviews'concerning this phone.however what many of you ignore is that there are genuine and also imitations of mobile phones.and sometimes,of course,if you buy a second hand mobile,it is bound to have flaws.there are shops which sell some mobiles cheap koz they fell down or broke koz of negligence.one advice to u all is:just check the mobile you yourself when you intend to buy one.so that u dont have to blame anyone later on and assume your responsibilities.and yeah,as a customer,you have the right to check a mobile thoroughly in a shop if u intend to buy it.

  • The keypads of my 6500s keeps siezing. What i'm i to do?

  • is this really a good phone. . ? im planning to buy a new one even if it is a secondhand . . though

  • My 6500 slide has'nt really been able to cope with a memory card larger than 1gb,it slows down considerably and i'm hoping there's a solution.

  • If everyone's problem is memory, then Nokia should avoid it. if one person has a memory problem its different from millions. we should try Bardock's theory and stop blaming the past. I just lost my memory card because inconsistent data access but I'll move on. if u don't tell anyone about ur problem when using ur phone in public, u get a credit.

  • as a potential buyer of this handset anybody can get confused with the various opinions mentioned... all i can say here is that in the past 20+ months i have had this hadnset, i did not face any problems... on the exactly opposite side, we have few unhappy customers... SO IN SHORT THIS IS JUST A GOOD PHONE WITH FEW LIMITATIONS (PURELY BECUASE OF THE TIME IT WAS RELEASED AND THE TARGET CUSTOMERS)... now its ur decision...

  • About memory card reading (FACTORY PROBLEM) SOLUTION; at the back of the phone there is a small wire between the camera and memory card. In order to read memory card that wire needs to be pushed down. It was meant to be done by the tip of rear cover, but it obviously isn't working. Son what should you do? Put some small piece paper on that wire, so it could be pushed down, and then put the rear cover back on. MAKE SURE THAT PIECE OF PAPER IS SOMEHOW FIXED SO IT CAN'T MOVE, NOT EVEN A MILIMETER. I'm a phone dealer and I've had many of these phones (some of them were brand new) , and they all had the same problem that were fixed this same way.

  • If you want to have this just for looks, then its great but but in all other sense its waste of money, I changed its LCD twice within 6 months of purchage, costing extra 4000 bucks. Sophisticated with no speciality.

  • Very pathetic phone.. From day 1 the issues with memory card not showing started. Keypad lock wont open fr sometime, sometimes.. phone hangs like hell, reminds me of "hang till death" and yesterday it dieds all of a sudden..S40 Software sucks bigg time..

  • I love my Nokia 6500 phone because its quality much better than other phones. Features in Nokia are maximum than price but features in other phones are minimum than price. Therefore i like NOKIA PHONES.....

  • d phone is presentable but... memory, java, calculator problems. i've used it for 2yrs, i only changed the flex once. i flash it today with v8.3, java and memory problem solve. i'll use a java calculator. used *#0000# to check ur version, u may all need upgrade

"Dont listen to the good reviews about this phone cause they are wrong. Sorry to all those people out there who love this phone, you obviously hav'nt worked this phone enough yet to reveal its flaws yet, or you are just lucky to get the rare good one. Either way, you are wrong! All the bad things you read about this phone are true, and there are more bad reviews than good ones, so theres a good chance your gona get a bad one." HOW CAN YOU U PUSH UR OPINION / BAD LUCK ON OTHERS???

  • my friend tanya nadas has this phone and its a gud 1

  • i have been using this phone for 2 years and it easy to use for both young abd old , big up 6500

  • I have used this phone for 2years and still using it. (bought it in March 2008. It is such a unique phone.

  • Hai I like Nokia 6500 slide (silver colour)phon

  • always use your camera in a good lighting condtions make sure you wait till a green rectangle comes up while clicking an image. and you will get the best possible images.

  • Stay away from this God awfull phone. It would have to go down as one of the most faulty prone phones nokia has ever produced. Very bad! I purchaced one new in 2008 and was told by the sales lady to be one of the best things from nokia. She must have been high on drugs when she said that or was realy good at lieing. Dont listen to the good reviews about this phone cause they are wrong. Sorry to all those people out there who love this phone, you obviously hav'nt worked this phone enough yet to reveal its flaws yet, or you are just lucky to get the rare good one. Either way, you are wrong! All the bad things you read about this phone are true, and there are more bad reviews than good ones, so theres a good chance your gona get a bad one. If you are still stupid enough to buy one after reading my review, expect one of, or all of these realy anoying faults: 1. Phone turning off for no reason (especialy when your waiting for an important call) 2. Phone freezes up whenever an app is used 3. Key pad sometimes wont work, for no reason 4. After 1 month, battery life (on stand by) will go from 4days to 24 hours, or only 1 hour of talk time. 5. Phone keeps saying the memory card has been removed (when it has'nt) whenever you want to transfer somthing from or to the memory card ie share a file via blue tooth or play an mp3 or video. And no to all those smart arses who think cleaning the SD card slot terminals will fix it, cause it dos'nt. 6. You will set a certain ring tone, and a day or two later its back to the default tone again. 7. Rear battery cover will fall off when you pull it from your pocket. 8. Lots of dust builds up inside the display. 9. Some times when you make a call, you get a noise that sounds like a fax is coming through or when you talk you hear your self a second later in your ear, so you need to hang up and make the call again. 10. When you take this piece of crap back to get these problems fixed, you keep getting told its a software problem, and they updated it, and you get home and turn it on and you still have the same problem about a day later. Please. Save yourself the trouble. Just don't get one.

  • please rub the memory slot pin with screw diver like toolsand put lit bit down the card catcher through ur fingure.

  • I've had this phone for over a year now. I only use for for calling & texting, but have had to update the phoneware 3 times due to problems. wont send texts if you're holding the phone at the side and i send a lot. Battery lasts approx a day (has done for 6 months now). Never used internet as too slow to connect. Dont use bluetooth unless syncing with another phone which I may go back to. The backing case will not sit flush and oftens falls off...and this was recommended by T-Mobile. HTC here I come !!

  • Strong construction and ease of use are main advantages.Sound and ringing are very clear.Screen color and resolution are almost the best one.Just my complaint,keypad is very hard.D pad and other short cut keys are very comfortable.Steel body and slide design are very attractive according to dropped price range.User friend S40 speedy software is another benefit of this phone.Dont go to buy S60 phone because you pay too much but you dont use all functions.Buy this phone for durability and speedy software .

(one problem is, it could break a tile on your floor.) I have no problem with gprs, I can browse with no problem, I just never been able to play youtube. Not important for me though. but if someone knows how to do it, Please email me at: [email protected]

  • Don't ever buy it!

  • Nothing could be worse! If you really have the nerve to buy something like this, you should be free three days a month to reinstall software! Forget about reading from memory card! This an unattainable option

  • can someone tell, what are the good things about this phone? cause i'm planning to buy but i'm quite confuse on which are good bet the 6500c and 6500s... a huge thanks...

  • I have had the 6500 for over a year and had to reinstall software three times. Make sure you back up info to your computer regularly. Two other workmates have same phone and not one has said there has been no issues, all waiting for contract term to end. Used to hae ericcsons and looking at going back!

  • Yes it`a good phone,looks nice..unfortunaltley the baterie has a short life..

  • awesome phone :) and also an handsome one m loving it

  • I bought this phone by Feb 2008. When it got released. Till now its working exceptionally well, except very few issues. Whenever i get angry i use to throw the phone,but till now its working.Thanks Nokia

  • dude the phone is so awesome...mine is the hungary made one..never had a problem with it except for the phones general short battery life. otherwise its really awesome..especially the camera..and it is a very sexy phone

  • i had this phs for 1 year and i dropped it many times never had a problem

  • I love this phone! Can you use a 4GB SD card for this or the maximum is 2GB?

  • Over a year on this device continues to set the standards for build quality in this market segment. Add to that that it has a very competent camera on board and a generous feature set and it is easy to See why its successors, the 6600 slide and the new 'I' version have had a difficult time improving on this excellent fashion feature device. Who needs to spend 10 times on a Vertu when you can have this type of assembly quality and feature set on a device that is less than �200? Recommended if you can still get hold of one and don't require wi fi.

  • How......funny?????? bronze colors always pretend the symbol of LAZINESS, LACK OF CONFIDENCE......GOT IT....Katrina JI.....

  • Hi ....totally happy wid the performance of this slider.....2 COOL...........

  • yes I have this problem also. probley the worst Nokia I have ever had.

  • I did update me firmware and since then had even more issues 3 have advise there was a software problem and for this reason they no longer offer this phone. I am looking at getting the Ericsson C903 or Blackberry Curve just not sure which is better.

  • My 6500 slide don't become hot after 5,10,15 min etc talked on him.Maybe it is a problem with yours.

  • Been using this phone for almost 2 yrs. Battery-excellent. Camera - very clear, photos realistic. It's pretty handy. Good video coverage. However, i got a problem with the earpiece. I can't clearly hear the voice of the other person but when using the headset, voice in the other line is good. I can also store loads of pix and songs. Overall assessment of this unit - very good!

  • I had many nokias, starting from 5510. None of them didn't get warm or hot during usage. And it doesn't matter if it's slide or not, Nokia 6500 always become very hot after 3-5 minutes of conversation. Does anyone know WHY?

  • Does this phone have white screen of death when sliding up the phone after this phone has been used for quite sometime, just like Nokia 6111 or Nokia 6280?

  • Most probably because you havent turned on mms service from your operator. you consult your network operator and tell them your phone model and they will send you a text with the mms, web and wap settings. save them and your done.

  • thanx mate

  • Have used this phone for 2 years and it's still in good shape. No problems what so ever with heavy usage (work construction.) Probably not an appealing phone to the eye to most people but it's solid, rare to see (in Canada at least), good reception, descent battery life (usually lasts the day), and the 3.2 MP camera shoots out visible pictures which comes in handy. For a "dumb" phone, it does the job. 9/10

  • I would just like to say that N6500 is a wonderful phone !

  • I had a 1g micro-sd card in my 6500 slide and i have problems whit him

  • is there any housing for the 6500 slide??

  • Try updating your firmware but back up all your contacts on your sim and save all photos and games as it reset the whole phone to original settings. Hope this helps.

  • I have had this phone for almost 18 months, only problem I have with this phone is that there as been software issues. Today I spoke with my network provider as i'm due an upgrade, however they have openly admitted that they have had bad software issues with this phone and have now stopped selling it. But like I say this has been a great phone to me except over the last 6 months since I got the latest firmware it crashes and freezes i also drop calls and have a poor signal strengh. Has anyone else experienced this. Cheers all. Also not sure what to get for me upgrade been offeredthe samsung jet but not sure is this a good phone, must admit I prefer nokia tho.

  • Mine has some sort of memory problem and the memory card doesn't work in it,and I only have 20 MB which is the phone memory and it doesn't detect the memory card,any suggestions on how to "repair" it?

  • i want to know is this phone has flash. where can i found it?

  • oh this fone is so harsh. i just love the camera. such clarity.... and u can even take pictures in the dark. and it has everything... except wifi... but hey deal with it its such a small price to pay. my facebook profile pic never looked so good!!

  • Not a phone that one can go for i regret the moment going out from the store having 6500 box in my hands!!!

  • Its so amazing.. now i can take photo even in the dark with a very high quality output just like digital camera.

  • this phone is the good device with all the features one need............ awesome camera clearity and good sound the phone is really fast to use and very simple to handle........... the only problem is that the memory card is inside the back pannel which is to b removed using the button...... so if some time by mistake the button is pressed the memory card gets deattached

  • battery really needs boosting. battery life short. otherwise a grat product

  • I love this phone....Great phone....Camera,Sound is awesome.....Uuummmuha

  • I am very disappointed that there are no lightened numbers/letters. It is impossible to dial a number or sms in the dark. Also this is nowhere mentioned in the accompanying book.

  • Thats rubbish, its a great phone. You just dont know what you are talking about. I used it for 2 years now and its absolutely great.

  • I had a 4gig micro-sdHC card in my E75, and i used it in my 6500 slide aswel. So 4gig will work for sure.

  • batery life time is very short? After 30-40 min. of radio listening the batry is completely emty!!

  • This is a very poor phone, the reception is poor compared to a Sony Ericsson phone on the same network. I will not be getting another Nokia. Good points easy to navigate through menu's but just not a great phone when you see what is out there for free with a contract.

  • i love this phone very much ! realyy great exp !

  • I have this phone for almost two years now. for the first 18 months i had no problems with it. i found it to be such a fantastic phone!!! but since the last 3 months after evey 3 weeks it just switches off by itself and cannot be switched on again unless it is 'flash'.this is so annoying!!!! every 3 weeks i hav to see a technician to 'flash' it!!! do anyone know how to 'flash' this phone??? It seems that i've dropped the phone too often. this has resulted in the damage of a piece of electronic device in the screen. So i'll advise anyone who has it to avoid dropping it. I would just like to say that N6500 is a wonderful phone. if u want it to last long just be careful while handling it and avoid dropping it.

  • bro this fone can only read memory card up to 4 gb

  • i luv this phone but the only prob is thet it alwys freezis pls hep

  • Hey guys you see, I told you about this phone before but it seems most of you don't get it right, now this what you do; lose your phone and get every accessory apart and now just drop it into the brine solution and rinse it just for 5 minutes. I hope it works perfect now ? huh ?

  • hi there. does anyone know if you can use a micro SDHC card in this phone because some people say that you cant. and i'm wanting either 4gb or 8gb and i cant find any normal micro sd cards with that memory. thanks

  • i have a problem of this phone all the keypads on the right side (g,h,i,p,q,r,s and punctuation marks) are not functioning, its really hard for me to txt now a days, just imagine texting without those letters...

  • I've been having all sorts of problems with mine. Sometimes the image disappears completely, it turns itself on and off, also had trouble with the answer key. ........other than that...it works :)

  • have this phone now for almost 2 years and still works perfectly just like the day i bought it. mine it's made in hungary.

  • I had it I hadn't seen such a dirty phone lyk 6500 slide....it's battery back up is very poor....no image clarity.............

  • this phone works like a charm... its been a flawless performance for almost 2 years since i bought it apart from changing the battery last week, i never experienced any problem. Even the camera is quite clear and sharp images even during night time.. Just plain sad that I've to change it to a new phone...

  • why is the phone always freezing please help

  • this phone is great (:

  • This fon sucks, it damaged easily i have one of this and the camera view when downloaded to my computer it has very small appearance like it was resize the mere fact its 3.5MP..what the heck.

  • When the nokia 6500s was launched the phones came back with software problems clients came in daily with faults its the worst phone nokia ever built

  • my mobile doesn't access applications.. it says "supportive file, nothing to display" how can i get out from this?? how to update nokia software in mobile??

  • good phon my nokia 6500 s

  • I've been using nokia 6500 slide for over an year and a half now and it works perfect for me.In my opinion this cellphone is close to flawless. I havent ever had problems with it lagging or anything like that. Im completely satisfied with it.

  • guys please stop criticizing this handset!!! i have used it for 18 months now - no problems!!!

  • Realy bad phone, its bad its from Nokia, Software problems, memory , frezg, both it and in i months it has visited nokia shop 100 times. in 7 months , it finally pack up.

  • Good phone apart from one crucial problem . . . extremely poor speaker on it! I've had it back for repair a couple of times under warranty and it's still not 100% right. The loudspeaker option is useless as it just does not do it's job. It's bad in normal operation . . . you just can't hear well. Disappointing!

  • i m using this mobile since an year an the best part of it is that everybody asks me hey dude which is this mobile! buy this mobile if you don't wanna be a part of crowd..

  • i believe the nokia 6500 can only handle a max of 4gb memory card

  • RM 720

  • Its a kool phone, brought 2,3 days ago.used by a ladies for 1 year.535 hours life timer..no problems..its a great handset

  • does anybody here knows why my 6500 doesnt recognized the 8gig memory card micro sd. what is the best thing to do to recognized or to read the 8 gig mem card. the phone is good.

  • most smarter phone i've ever used..cool nd so much stylist phone

  • Ive had this phone for almost two years and it is time for me to do my upgrade one soon month and i am finding it difficult to come to terms with using another handset. this is truly an amazing phone. i think that if i do an upgrade i am going to take the same phone

  • A Very Nice Hands Set This Phone NOKIA 6500

  • Awful phone/service. Unfortunatey contracted to 3, have poor signal in many parts of UK, not bad in France, Belgium, Holland,Luxemburg or Corfu. Except I live in Manchester UK and cannot use phone around here - 3 have now told me there is a problem with this phone that they are aware of ( I haver been complaining for the last 15 months, to no avail). IF anybody gets one of these - PLEASE remember the cooling off period and send back if no good!!

  • Im using this fone for over a year now.and it freezes alot.i guess coz there is alot stored on the fone.but its a cool fone.Carl Zeiss optics really madhir.

  • About the Freezing you have to avoid overloading the Phone memory itself and get onto the external memory, This phone is beautiful and cool.

  • Hey you guys,this Phone is good, I have been using it for quite long now and have no problems before, get the Hungary made and avoid all this complains about this damn phone!!!

  • i use this fone got 1 and a half year already....this fone are really pretty but the function very suck....3.2 mp also can useless like that....haiss....

  • version?

  • yes i have face the same problem but this was something not sxpected from nokia

  • Just throw it to the drain......

  • do u know how much it is in malaysia...?i planning to change my phone with a limited budget only...nw i m looking on this phone and i need to know the price of it...

  • phone is very good!!!i have nokia 6500 slide !!beautiful phone

  • this is the worst phn ever i seen.i ve used this 5 months.i faced many problems like restart,memorycard problem etc.at last i sold this.

  • It is really a good Phone, I have used the Phone for two months now, there is no problem. is my best phone ever. Go for made in Hungary, you will enjoy it.

  • better mobile but go for N73

  • GSM Arena website is giving wrong informations of all mobile spec. See other web site for better information.

  • I plugged the earphones and the phone just died on me. When I start it, it'll show the screen with a word Nokia on it and will go dead again. I've tried several times already - same result. Did any one experience same kind of problem before?

  • when i try ta acess applications, it says "supportive file only, nothing to display" anyone please can tell me,how could i fix it??

  • this is one of the best phones that i ever had.

  • the problems of this phone which i notice is steaking frequently. am the one who using this phone it giving me a problems many times of steaking,so for me is not good phone because of that problem which i experienced.

  • iv had my 6500 for 1.5 years after 4-5 months all the apps stopped working it scratchers real easy locks up if i try to open it from the bit of rubber under the screen has the worst reception its always freezing battery lasts 2-3 days no problems with the memory card 2gig good Bluetooth. always on romeing...but still ok

  • I have never struggled so much with a cellphone as with this one. It freezes non-stop, looses it's date & time memory! Terrible phone!

  • Obviously the weakest part of this phone is the screen it has. The connection (UMTS 850 / 2100) was a bit dodgy from time to time with varying connectivity and latency issues. The phone itself lasted for about a year after which the phones' LCD cell cracked for no reason at all, some minor screen problems prior to the last nail to the coffin as well. Apart from looking stylish this phone is a set off.

  • this is the worst fone i ve ever used, the picture weny off and keep hanging i am very dissapointed

  • i used this phone for less than a year.. it was so disappointing it just blacked out and that was the end of it.

  • i think this is the worst phone i ever bought... last may 2009 i bought this nokia 6500 slide and after a few days, i notice that my pnone keeps on hanging and the function keys are malfunctioning and sometimes the display is fading.i am very disappointed because i bought it as a brand new but it seems like it has been stuck for years and i was very unlucky to get this unit.. i've been to nokia service center for a couple of times... formatting and changing of the motherboard was done but the problem keeps on coming back. i already ask them if they can replace my unit but they have no policy regarding the replacement. i also ask them what if my warranty expires and still the same problem keeps going back?i already need to pay for the repair.. just imagine, from the very beginning, iam not satisfied with the service of the cellphone i bought and this is what i get when the warranty expires... pay for the repairs that they will do... and will be doing if the problem occurs again and again.. this is not fair for my part because the unit is too expensive...

  • Nokia 6500 is a great phone! It has wonderful autofocus camera - one of the best, embodied in mobile phone and also with a brilliant display quality. I have been using mine since one year and a half. I have no problems till now. I have dropped it several times and it occured to be quite solid one. Nokia 6500 could operate with 8 GB memory card (I am using such right now, in the moment.) You should know that without it's back putted on this mobile does not recognize it's memory card until you put the back on.

  • Things I dont like about this phone - 1- Battery life, had it 6 months, needs charging every day & I only use it to phone/text people 2-back cover does not sit properly over camera always loose. 3- freezes when texting 4-reinstalled firmware 3 times now as flickers constantly when using phone 5-slide is on verge of breaking 6-defaults back to white background if you switch off instead of the pic I have set as wallpaper. 7-Ugly looking phone !! I'm thinking of going back to my not so great Nokia 6300 as its more reliable!

  • even im facing the same problem,,, screen breaks n more over switches dnt work properly..:((

  • Looks arent everything... nt such a great phone. It keeps reseting the mem card.

  • don't buy this great phone unless ur prepared to risk ur screen breaking on its own in the first 12mths

  • these phones are great, big screen, good camera until they start giving trouble,screens breaks by itself,mine did sitting on my car console, i'm not the first from wat i've heard

  • It HAS a front camera (look carefully)

  • Acrobat Redar Downloed

  • crap phone freezes when you play music it crakles sngnal not very good keeps cutting me off rubbish absoltuly rubbish

  • i think its an fantastic mobile larg sceern nice camera wlan & other things

  • it is a good phone in NOKIA but it freezes a lot

  • its a cool phone but it freezes a lot and it switches off by itself

  • yea its good only !!

  • of course it does !!!!!

  • Do not use much other than calls and sms. The battery last 5-6 days IF the damn G3 stays off. For some or other reason it came on and the battery will last less than a day on standby. Only other problem with it is that the ringtones are to soft or penetrating. I do have a slight hearing problem, but do hear other phones well. Voice is clear and good enough for me. The phone fell a few times, but still have no bad feelings towards me for that. It works well for more than a year now

  • Hi just wondered if u had tried another memory card? I had a camera that let me down big style gave me shed loadsa trouble then tried a different card - sorted

  • dont even buy them, dosent play music or vids

  • Well i been using this phone for just about 2 years.. being a avert Nokia fan i still haven't changed this phone... couple of things i hate about the phone are no WLAN, no front camera. Stuff i like are many, nice camera, strong key pad... and the biggest crappy let down is its software, and the back cover which u need to be aligned properly or your whole settings is gonna reset to original. But overall quite stable phone. (my friends had issues with their phone freezing while playing movie or music, not mine.. so no comments on it..)

  • super appu

  • It's good looking. I face difficulties sometimes as there is a signal drop and automatically cutoff the call. Also the battery capacity is not sufficient. Other features are good.

  • This phone is very good but after a few months the battery became weak this only the weakness point in the phone . . Thanks

  • worst is da back panel.. once its lose memory card s not read properly.... had to replace da key panal also recently... unlike other models... everything s costly n not available....:((

  • hey guys my friend has this phone but she neva updated her software ever since she got the phone,how does 1 update this phone's software,with n96 its star#0000# but thats not working 4 6500slide,pls help

  • this is very cool phone man ,,,i gave you advice to buy it

  • one of the worst phones ever ..software is rubbish on it..ever since i got it it would not read the memory card always freezes when i put the memory card in and wont respond til i take the battery out and put it bk in..phone decides to shut itself off the whole time i have never dropped or damaged the phone.camera is very good but takes ages to save a pic ..finally 1 day i couldnt hear people on the phone in a call it got very very hot then turned itself off wouldnt charge or come back on since then complete rubbish dont get this phone its far to overpriced for a phone that is so faulty !!

  • hi lisa

  • I hate the phone and regret getting it. It freezes everytime and the screen becomes blank and it switches off by itself.

  • ahm. actually i own a 6500. it also has it's failure. it restarts when i try to listen or watch a movie but it was then before. my mem. card is 2gb. If you have a mem like this big. try to use 1.5g or lower in saving files. It's just my opinion and i think there is really no harm if you'll try it too

  • when it drop on the road or floor,it body will broken...

  • Really it is a good phone in nokia........

  • im using mobile copule of month no good respons many time phone restrat automatcley

  • Note to everyone, this phone cannot support over 1.5GB of data on the card, the phone's screen keeps going blank, then back to active standby and then turns off, after I deleted some music,photos etc the restarting stopped, never store more than 1.5GB of data on this phone, this will occur and it's very hard to clear if you do NOT have a adapter for your PC for the memory card. FIRMWARE VERSION: v07.12 - 28-05-08 Sound: Great sound, sometimes keypad tones "pop" the speaker usually goes away, but comes back now and then. The speak may click very silently only heard if you place it right near your ear. Build: Ok once out of the box and used fair regularly the housing starts to "warp" and becomes to look uneven. The battery cover is stainless steal, so be careful when you remove it to place your sim, the clips BEND easily. Overall, fairly solid phone, and has a great screen and camera flash is great, if you drop it, it's very strong the stainless steal keeps it in tact, but can dent and warp, so don't smash it into the ground. Housing scratches quite easily too, make sure you buy a hardcase or someone similar to protect it for resale value. -javstar

  • the nokia 6500 is a grd8 phone and lyk it 2 much no proleme and a fancy phone wth class nokia is the best...

  • My phone does not retain power forlong it dies very fast and i have to charge ot everyday. The other problem is that i have to put a loud speaker to hear to caller. The last one is that the memory of the camera can only accomodate 10 pictures

  • it's has a great cameraa....

  • well it a really nice mobile the problem is that my battery dies after a couple of hrs and its begins to get really hot.does anyone have the same prob or have a solution for it???

  • im using nokia 6500 for a couple months..I found out that when you try to watch a video or to listen a music..the phone automatically restart...! what would be the best to do with that?.

  • if u drop ur phone it only means ur careless

  • bro, from where can i get its casing,, is it easy to change its casing ...

  • Bro, its internal memory is not 20 mb ,I think it is 31 mb, you can check it it out with pc suite, But amaizing fone...better than n73 .

  • If you have another option don't choose this one. Fisrt on in my contract broke, got given a new one which broke the third day I had it!!!! waste of time and money!! operators would not even allow change of model!!!!! Bleek!!

  • Its really good mobile. Am using it since 1yr,and happy with it. But some time it will restart, but i dont think it as major issue.

  • very nice featurs. ilike that..

  • Hi! just wondering when you do the phone upgrade, will you lose all the stuff in the phone eg. photos, music etc..? Thanks :)

  • This Slide Phone is Better 1. Its already 1 year with me & there NO FLEX problem 2. Its really Bright & Clear in the dark take pictures with the Flash 3. It Operates Faster than Symbian Phone, It respond immediately with the buttons you press. 4. It has also a Loud Sound 5. Taking Videos are Clear and Responds together with the recording movement 6. It has a Quick snap upon taking pictures, one click, whatever you capture is covered and GOOD Auto Focus. 7. So Good to apply Themes and Other softwares. 8. It has good TV OUT output and presentation 9. It has a steel case that seem to be a Scratch proof. 10.It has the Executive stylish looks

  • Loved it when I bought more than a year back. Giving me problems now but I still don't regret buying it. Beautiful design, splendid battery, spotless display, certainly the best 3.15M camera in any phone in its time. I had no problems with slide operations but the awesome keypad gets scratched and the D button gets rusted with time. Good music player but can't search in music lists have to scroll up and down, also the earphone jack is 2.5mm, most branded earphones would be 3.5mm. Interesting gadgets and nifty tweaks not found even in some N series models. However now the phone shuts down or restarts itself. Very annoying. Some users say that having less messages might help, but not expected from a phone of 14k INR. If you save less than 1000 messages in total, and want to wow people with looks, very good choice for you.

  • 6500 is good slider.... And good Look mobile

  • pawann da pabi phuk bangaray ishk bnaray

  • I have had this phone for 2 yrs now. It is crap, i am a Nokia fan but this phone is a lemon. It has great features but the software lets it down. It continually freezes and shuts itself off. It can't function properly as more data is stored on the phone. Also the slide feature is renown for breaking as mine did it is not very durable. The keypad and camera are great. If only they could add Wi-fi and Wlan along with upgraded features including a camera of say 8MP, then fix the slide issue and software i would want it. Other than those problems it is a good phone. But it is left behind by the new technology of 2009.

  • yeaa mind blowng gadjet........

  • Greate ......its vry easy toooo use...camera super...compareing other new model its worst....this model should come in 2004

  • when you are taking pictures go at setting and set that the pictures to be saved on the memory card.. it will save them very fast not in 30seconds as u mentioned

But THIS IS BETTER, feautures are better than the once came out before this. Ill keep it posted once ill find a problem with it... Thanks

  • I've been using this phone since december and i regret ever buying it. 1. It switches on and off on its own. 2. The memory card sometimes 'disappears' from the display,and my music is interrupted. 3. The typing sometimes lags and phones freezes alot. 4. If i scroll up or down, it goes all the way down and doesn't stop where i want it to. The absolute WORST phone ever!
