The Nokia 6500 has all the virtues one would expect from a Nokia handset; practical and desirable features in an easy-to-use format. Uniquely, the phone¹s Œengine¹ is inserted into an extruded aluminum tube, giving the handset a slim, seamless, smooth feel and a contemporary look. Each metal part is individually polished, a level of craftsmanship not normally associated with mobile handsets. The final seal of quality is delivered by the specially designed on-screen background themes which are colour matched to the material of the handsets creating a feeling of completeness and a completely resolved customer experience.
