This model is rumored to work on 3G networks like Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (W-CDMA) and to operate at 2110-2200 MHz in downlink and 1885-2025 MHz in uplink.
It supports HSDPA 3G protocol for high speeds and has also Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity.



The display has 3.2 inches displaying 16 million colors and there is also the QWERTY keyboard and a 6.0MP camera with Carl Zeiss lens. Wow!



This sounds as the most evolved Smartphone at the moment, idea strengthened by the 10GB of internal memory and the integrated motion sensor.
There is said to be an FM radio and GPS navigation system, but also a Digital TV and 4 speakers.

Let’s wait and see if Nokia will confirm these specs in the near future.

The slider-type Nokia N81 had started to ship and you can find 2 versions, one with 8GB internal flash memory and another one with microSD card slot for up to 8GB.



You can distinguish them easily because of the golden brown sides and metallic mocha backplate, of the 8GB flash model.



The N81 has the following features:

-2.0MP camera with flash, video capture and front-facing VGA resolution camera for video calling;
-Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900MHz);
-WCDMA (2100MHz);
-Wi-Fi;
-Bluetooth 2.0;
-A2DP support for stereo headsets;
-Micro-USB port for data transfer only.



Nokia N81 with 8GB will have a retail price of $608, while the one with microSD will cost $510.

Nokia is bringing out the Nokia 2135 model with a 400-entry capacity phonebook, CDMA, a speakerphone for multiple conversations in the same time, assignable ringtones, and a 3.5 hours talktime or 11 days of standby battery.



Other features of the phone are the calendar and a built-in voice recorder which can store 60 seconds of audio.

As Larry Paulson - senior vice president and general manager of Nokia's CDMA business group – said, "Many consumers are looking for a simple, affordable phone to keep them in touch with the people who mean the most to them, and the Nokia 2135 is designed with those consumers in mind.
The large easy to read keys and familiar Nokia user interface makes the Nokia 2135 comfortable to use.
The modern design and compact size makes it easy to carry, and the attractive price makes it easy to afford."



The price is not known yet, but we can suppose after seeing these specifications, that it will a wallet-friendly model, expected to be released this fall starting with North America.

The Nokia 5310 and Nokia 5610 XpressMusic phones have been finally unveiled today, both devices bringing fresh products in the line of music phones.

Nokia 5310 XpressMusic phone is only 9.9 mm thick and weights 71 grams, which makes it one of the thinnest devices on the market. The look change is welcomed, Nokia now can be proud of introducing an appealing design. The handset can provide up to 18 hours of music playback and a memory for up to 3,000 songs through the optional 4GB microSD card.

The phone also features a 2 megapixel camera and a 2-inch VGA screen that has up to 16 million colors that make playlists and captures display beautifully.


The other unveiled phone, Nokia 610 XpressMusic is a slider phone with aluminum side panels that add to its classy looks. A 2.2 inch display screen is available, as well as an incredible 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and dual LED flash.

The handset uses 3G technology that makes downloads, web-browsing and video calls faster and easier. Moreover, an optional 4GB microSD card is available to sotr hours of songs.

<-234x60 Half Banner - left->Nokia 5310 XpressMusic will start shipping in the fourth quarter of 2007 at an estimated retail price of 225 euros. The Nokia 5610 XpressMusic will hot the market at about the same time, for the price of 300 euros without taxes and subsidies.

A new concept for a Nokia handset has been announced, and with its performances resembling nothing launched by Nokia before, it probably will never make past its concept state.


The Nokia 7480 phone concept looks stylish , smooth, but it is not a potential release from the manufacturer. Nokia is receiving a lot of credit with the brand name, although the phone might look very similar to a Samsung handset, if it weren't for the bulky edges and the back case.

This slider phone features a tall screen, making no visible passage to the main navigation button. While the image does not reveal the phone's buttons, it would have been interesting to see what Nokia had in mind to match with a smooth and clear display.

Apparently, when it slides, Nokia 7480 shows its upper back side of the front case and a small small smiley face drawn on it next to writing "Smile". This phone could probably work as a display of personality and a statement phone as well.
