    March 26, 2009

    The Good: The Nokia 6500 Classic has a functional feature set, a brilliant display, and good call quality. Its design is simple and sturdy.

    Review Summary: The Nokia 6500 Classic sells for around Rs 13,000 and comes with a one-year warranty. This isn't a phone I'm willing to spend 13K on, period. There are options so much better, they'd provide me with features a class above. But here, since we're ...
