The review was released yesterday. But the screen look dirty and damaged. What happened to the screen?
The stumbling block for the Nokia 8800 was its pathetic battery life, which was directly affected by the metal casing, since it took a lot of energy to beam a signal out of it. And struggling for more hours without changing materials was not possible, and that’s exactly why the Nokia 8600 utilizes glass finish. The bottom part of the slider is made of hardened glass, although at first you want to believe that it is stainless steel, which is so Nokia 8800. But when it starts ringing, you instantly see the keypad glowing underneath
This handset has 2mpx camera (CMOS) which is not that much by today’s standards, but it is still pretty much sufficient. Nokia has decided not to bet on the camera part, it is more of an optional feature here. This is why camera’s module picked for 8600 is one of the cheapest units out there, and provides average quality, if not to say meagre.

Nokia’s launched a new high-end handset, and a couple mid-rangers, for its 2007 lineup. The much anticipated and highly praised Nokia 8600 Luna is finally upon us! The beautifully slick and shiny slider takes its place as the high-end designer phone in this year’s Nokia offerings. The steel and glass-clad handset features 2 megapixel shooter and hugely bright display - with the first microUSB port to be implemented by Nokia. Pricing for the Nokia Luna will be around 700 Euros for the stand alone phone - and will start shipping this quarter.
The mid-range front is now bolstered with the introduction of Nokia’s 6500 Classic and 6500 Slide. As the names might suggest, the Classic features a traditional candybar form-factor, while the Slide rocks that cool keypad slider. The Nokia 6500 Classic sports a quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 Mhz) GSM radio with 3G and microUSB in a 9.5mm super-thin package - now that’s thin! The Nokia 6500 Slide also boasts a 3G radio and features a 3.2 megapixel camera in a stainless steel body.
The Classic will be available for about 320 Euros and the Slide is expected at a 370 Euro price-point.
