Review Summary |
The Nokia 6500 slide is an excellent basic camera-phone based on the S40 platform, though some tiny issues prevented it from getting a higher score. |
Business users looking for a competent, no-nonsense smartphone will like the E72 for its breadth of features and stylish design. |
More info |
HTC's first smartphone with WM6.5 ticks almost all the boxes for an entry-level smartphone, though it needs to be cheaper to differentiate itself from more highly-specced products. |
