Although Nokia’s 6500 classic isn’t quite as technically sassy as its ‘slide‘ sister, its anodized aluminium body is sure to win it more than a few lingering stares. Also based on the Series 40 platform, the quad-band 6500 classic ships with 1GB of on-board memory, which is nice, although there’s no sign of a slot for adding more storage via cards.
Still, there’s a two-megapixel shooter in that slinky 109.8 x 45 x 9.5mm shell, along with Bluetooth, dual-band 3G, and a 240 x 320 pixel QVGA 16.7 million colour screen. Talktime is claimed at 5.5 hours, with around 12 days of standby. Notably, both this and the 6500 slide use micro USB for data connection and charging, which is presumably going to become standard on all new Nokias.
