For me... i have no feeling at all for N73 ME due to its appearance. Can be said that i dont like it at all. But i've browse through the specs of it n i found out that it's specs is very good compared to 6500s n in price wise, much more cheaper.

So if u r into music, i think N73ME would be a better option. 6500s's headset n speaker is a crap. i might be too harsh but prevly i have used w850i n it's music playing is far better than the 6500s. i might go for 3rd party headset though.

What do i think,
Price: N73
Appearance: 6500s
Features: N73 = 6500s
Music = definitely not 6500s using provided headset.

wow, thanks for ur good review...Ya, for the appearance, definitely a stainless steel appearance will win a street. tongue.gif I think i'll getting this 6500 when the price is almost the same wif N73ME.... biggrin.gif Quite near now. tongue.gif

it can but due to certain2 batch/model hv memory card connector problems, thats why they suggest to transfer ur theme n ringtones from memory card to phone memory to avoid the resetting problems
*
Then how can i know whether my batch suffered from memory card connector problem or not? is it the problem only occured in certain manufactured date? hmm.gif

i think as long as your firmware is v4.84 n you dont remove the backplate when e hp is on, i dont think there will be any prob.

Yeah, my fw is 4.84, i think it shudnt be a prob. tongue.gif Btw, wat kinda protection u all use to protect ur 6500? Is it ok if using crystal case? coz last time when i use the crystal case to protect my w850, the sliding mechanism became loose. doh.gif

ap set....so cannot bring to nokia service center...my opinion
-design 9/10 (very solid slide phone)
-battery 7/10 (not so long last)
-os 7/10 (s40..wut do u expect)
-camera 8/10 (picture quality not bad, but to load pic so long)
-sound 8/10 (better than my previous n73.lol)

ya, i believe the clicking sound is produce by scratching of the keypad...Btw, i usually slide it pressing the screen, not the plastic part, it do reduce the clicking sound.

Camera slow meh? Why I don't find it slow on mine.  sweat.gif

I still find the camera usable. Only saving the picture take abit longer but overall its bearable.

The only issue I have is scratched keypad and sometimes soft keys won't respond, like lag.
*
erm...the saving process is quite slow, but it is ok for me. For the lagness, it'll lag when the phone cant detect the memory card, this is from my observation...When the phone is lagging, u try to open gallery and see, the memory card icon will disapear and reappear....Try to do the back cover modification, it can prevent this. smile.gif

erm...this is also my question 2 weeks ago....hehe. Now im a proud owner of 6500s. In term of music ability, i think both also the ame, but if in term of speaker or the quality of ringging tone, i think 6500s wins. It has a nice speaker undoubtly.

LoL, now this section with a avatar on the side looks weird. Im kinda dissapointed that they didnt use black 6500S as the avatar. Haha...

yaya, i second that. rclxms.gif The avatar is too plain dy...If can put silver and black together plus some nice background, like some other phone thread, then it would be best. tongue.gif
