Nokia announces the 6600i slide
A day after launching three new devices for emerging World markets including the cheapest 3G model the company has ever offered, Nokia has announced the 6600i slide. Essentially nothing more than an update to the 6600 slide with a 5 megapixel camera, brushed metal body, smaller pant size and 3G connectivity, the 6600i could be just what the doctor ordered as summer approaches and the thought of ruining your N85 at the beach floats around in your head. Here’s what the 6600i slide has going for it spec wise:
- Dual-band WCDMA (850/2100MHz) and quad-band GSM/EDGE
- S40
- 2.2″ QVGA display
- 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus, 8x digital zoom and dual-LED flash / VGA video recording at 15fps
- Bluetooth 2.0, FM tuner, accelerometer, microUSB
- 20MB internal memory and 1GB microSD card in box
- 1100 mAh battery
- 3 / 4 hours talk time (GSM / UMTS), 14.5 days stand-by
- 93mm x 45mm x 14mm, 110g
- Available in both black and silver in Q3 for approximately 200€ ($272 USD) before subsidies and taxes.
Not bad at… Oh who are we kidding — there’s only room for one slider today.
Nokia makes nice stuff. That’s why their prices tend to be a bit “proud”. I’ve been up for 18 hrs (all night) and am rambling.

you guys mean the pre ?
As much as I love Nokia, they seem to be becoming more like Samsung in releasing 98172398472 variants on the same phone.
Btw, what’s meant by the beach comment? It implies this thing’s waterproof…
Nah, it implies that this phone is cheap and would be less painful to drown as opposed to the N85.
looks a little bland or unsure… personally.
2nd – ruin your N85 so you can get this?
