      Curious, 07 Jul 2009This is a great phone, does everything that is expected of ... moreIt must be a mass fault then. Everybody I know who has had this phone (thats pushing 15 people) has had to have it fixed, or completely replaced because it has broken constantly.

      I've constantly deleted messages + photos to free memory, only for it to continue freezing alot of the time.

      Myself, and friends who have the same phone have had the software updated, and batteries replaced. Only for it to be on the blink again within a few weeks.

      Stay away from this phone.

        This is a great phone, does everything that is expected of it unless if it is a manufacturer fault, then take it back for repairs. However, it does freeze alil when memory is getting full, but i suppose its only normal that it does that. Just out of curiousity, can this phone send and receive emails from microsoft outlook??

            Absoloute crap. Battery life is shocking. Freezes whenever opening any messages (I never have more then 100 messages in my inbox, I delete regularly), when opening the camera, viewing pictures, playing music, receiving a call, attempting to charge. Anything.

            No warning on low battery life, and sometimes when I take it off charge, it still has "Charging" symbol, only to die a few minutes later.

            Whats the worse part though? The charger set my carpet on fire. After that, it stopped working. Now, after 6 months, the USB cable charger is now also failing. Had it fixed once, and now I'm out of warranty. Throwing it away, and getting an iPhone.

            Worst. Phone. Ever.

                    My advice is to stay far away from this phone-its bad news. I had a Nokia 6500 classic for a month, I fell for the phone because of its looks but thats all it has! The phone constantly froze, switched itself on and off and didnt want to make or receive calls! Its totally pathetic.

                            I have had my Nokia 6500 classic for almost a month and I'm getting very disappointed. I have a question though. How can I fix the dates of my received messages in the inbox? Like if I get a message at 12pm it says that it was received at 9am, like three hours before. How can I fix the date? My friend has the same phone and has the same problem. Oh and what's with it restarting or shutting down radomly when I'm using it? Please reply. Thank you

                                    Got his phone in April 08. Really love the design and even look of the phone being so slim fits great in my jeans and when I got the phone a number of friends commented on how 'thin' the phone is.!

                                    Unfortunately I'm very tired of my phone after just 1 year. The user interface of the Sony Ericsson (my previous phone - K750i) I feel is better/faster than this one.

                                    Biggest issues:
                                    Opening my sent items folder takes at least 10 seconds and gets very irritating (2,815 msgs) Inbox also has noticeable delay and again very irritating (2,163 msgs). Phone randomly restarts (sometimes I go to browse a website - crash. During browsing - crash. Viewing camera images - crash. Listening to music - crash. It seems very random) and takes close to 10 minutes before I can use it again while it gets messages, contacts and media stores running. Worse, sometimes it wont' fully restart so I have to take out the battery and wait awhile before putting it back in and turning on.

                                    Also - battery life - I have to charge my phone every night or else the next day I can't be sure I'll have enough battery left. My Sony lasted up to 5 days. I can sometimes miss charging a night, but by the next night, the battery bar is extremely low.

                                    Reception on my phone isn't as good as my last phone - when I'm out with friends often they have reception on their phone while I have none.

                                    Finally the camera is a huge disappointment. Taking a photo takes approximately 6 to 8 seconds - again extremely irritating.

                                    The phone is a very nice looking phone, and has served me well, but I guess I'm just tired of it.
