The first Qtek clamshell EDGE music phone is here! Your new Qtek 8500 weights only 99 grams with battery and touts a breath-taking 16mm with a build-in 1.3-megapixel camera and music control buttons.

Qtek 8500 is not your ordinary clamshell phone. With EDGE, you enjoy faster data download.* With the convenient music buttons in the front panel, a simple touch and enjoy your favorite music stored on the micro SD card right away.

The main 2.2” TFT LCD with LED backlight gives you crystal clear, crisp and vibrant image and colors. The secondary 1.2” TFT LCD on the front cover keeps you always informed of the time / date, identity of callers, and what music is playing.

Review

I've had it for a week. One thing is the battery. This is really bad. It lasts for 24 hrs. The phone allso locks up quite often, and then I have to wait for quite some time or shut it off. Up to now, quite dissapointing.
