Nokia 6600i Slide

good phone.very comfortable!

This 'phone (Nokia 6500 Slide) has a pathetically short battery life poor,low capacity music player and frequently does not respond to key presses, I only had it a few weeks before relegating to a drawer and reverting to my 2 year old Samsung, better battery life and equal music player with no other foibles.Unfortunately as I am out of my trial period I cannot return it so will stay in the drawer until I can upgrade. Never again a Nokia!!Before purchase I would have liked to know that battery life quoted by manufacturers is with the phone on standby but with no SIM card therefore not seeking a signal and using power, this is completely misleading as who amongst us uses 'phones without a SIM card?

I bought this Nokia 6600i Slide phone sim free last month. I had not had any problems with this phone, it is excellent. It feels really well made too, not plasticy like other Nokia mobiles. The only down side is that there are not alot of accessories out there for this phone!

It may seem strange that I have given the Nokia 6600i slide 4 stars but would not recommed it, well lets start with the possitives. It's a well put together phone in a smart stainless steel casing, it feels great and the screen is very good. The 5 mega pixel camera is good but does take a while to process after taking the shot. The main probelms are the screen goes blank after only 10 seconds which is a real pain when reading texts or if you pause while writing a text, this you can't adjust so stuck with this. The other thing I have found is the text alert tones are too quiet and this also can not be adjusted. These two points spoil what could be an excellent phone.
