Nokia-c6-review-4The Nokia C6 is a nifty little QWERTY slider for those who want some of the N97's features but are on a lower budget. It even has (whisper) a better keyboard than its big brother.

If you have plumped for the C6 you may have a bit of spare change left so why not deck it out in the finest accessories known to man? Here is our pick of the best add-ons to trick out your new blower.

Extra Power DC-11

The C6 has a generous eleven hours of talk time, but if you need a bit extra, this is ideal. Carry this rechargeable battery pack around and you can recharge both your C6 and another device at the same time using the twin USB connectors.

Nokia BH-607 Bluetooth Headset

Go hands-free with Nokia's own brand of Bluetooth earpiece. The BH-607 charges in just 15 minutes (for 5 hours of chat) and features noise-cancelling technology to make your calls clearer. Unlike most Bluetooth headsets, the BH-607 has a customisable 'My Own' button that can be programmed to perform functions like reading out SMS messages, checking the time or sending out predefined messages.

Desk Genie charging stand

The deskgenie not only charges your phone via microUSB, it will hold it in place using its gripping surface, ensuring that the phone is always on hand at the right angle for checking incoming messages or eve watching YouTube movies.

Nokia MD-9 speaker

The C6 is a capable music player, but the speakers are better for annoying people on the bus than for listening to quality sounds. the MD-9 packs a surprising punch for such a little speaker and will run for around 50 hours on two AAA batteries. You can even use it as an FM antenna and listen to the radio. Loudly.

Nokia 16 GB microSDHC Card MU-44

All those tunes have to go somewhere, and this microSD card from Nokia will expand your C6's memory to a whopping 16 GB - enough to hold around 4000 tracks.
