The Siemens SL10 : old sliding mobile phone with a four-colour screen

The Siemens SL10 is a sliding mobile phone with a four-colour screen (Red, Green, Blue and White). It was the first mobile phone with this form factor.

Its a small handy sized phone, with the only disadvantage being the fact that i cracked the face once and cant get it repaired but its only small.It has a 4 colour screen, infra red, some funky little ring tones.Colour screen and infer-red upload/download capabilities to name a couple. There are no games on it, but if you wan't to play games buy a games console.

Siemens SL10 differed quite high functionality, including the presence of the IR port. Unfortunately, the new form factor has been forgotten. As you are aware from previous submissions, it was time Motorola StarTac and cots in general. Next slide, Nokia 7650, appeared only in 2002.

This model of Siemens, as well as some others, ahead of its time. Introduced in 1998, she invited users to a completely new mechanism of disclosure, in which halves of the device slid (slide - slide) relative to each other. This was achieved by compactness, and a numeric keypad hidden under the screen. Dimensions of the model accounted for only 129h50h26 mm and weighs 138 PM

In this regard, SL10 repeated the fate of his predecessor in candybar, Siemens S10. The world's first device with a color screen (four colors), released in 1997 and well ahead of his time. Members were not prepared to overpay for "questionable" feature. As a result, the model is not widespread.
