What the Critics Are Saying...

It is a truly great looking handset. Well, except for the not so rare moments when it ends up covered with fingerprints.

The Nokia 6500 Classic has an impressive spec sheet. 1GB of internal storage memory, a 2 megapixel camera, and a very sleek and elegant form factor. It is also very solidly built. Not bad for a company that only very recently started making thin phones.But like the 6500 Slide that we recently review...
