A slide phone qwerty is a handset which has a retractable keypad that is positioned within the structure of the mobile, these are perfect for those people who are wanting a design which is similar to a traditional PC. Currently about a third of all qwerty smartphone handsets use this system, clearly the keyboard is smaller than that of a laptop or computer however works in exactly the same way.

Slide or slider phones are perfect for those people who spend a great deal of time texting or adding content to social networking websites such as facebook, twitter or myspace, traditional texting layouts are not suited to such use and the qwerty slider is the perfect solution. Due to the growing number of people using social networking the numbers of sales of such phones are growing, the perfect combination would be a camera qwerty combined with the slider phone mechanism.
