Nokia N95 8GB

Nokia once again released another desirable device from their Nseries lineup – the new Nokia N95 8GB. This is an improved version of the Nokia N95 multimedia computer. In this new multimedia device Nokia proudly presents much better features and of course an improved performance. Let’s start up first with its bigger storage, the built-in 8 gigabytes memory. And looking up front you’ll notice the slightly bigger display, 2.8-inch screen with 240 x 320 resolution. Locating well-known locations and landmarks is also made easy with the integrated Assisted-GPS. The N95 8GB is a personal device to your satisfaction as it also features improved battery strength.

Nokia N95

The Nokia N95 is one if not the greatest multimedia phones to ever grace the market. Though it has been out for some time now not all countries have the benefit of using and enjoying it, like U.S. It’s only this coming September that Nokia will sell a U.S. version of the N95. In the U.S N95 version, Nokia integrates support for AT&T Wireless HSPDA network. This would be one big advantage of American over Europeans because the HSPDA feature will allow them to look around the web with the speed of 1 megabit per second. Further upgrades include the battery, higher RAM going on to 124MB and GPS ability.

Nokia takes pride in the fact that its multimedia device the N95 won the title “European Media Phone of the Year 2007-2008”. This is the third time that Nokia becomes the recipient of the said award! The award was presented by the European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA), Europe’s leading award giving body for consumer technology. If you happen to be one of the lucky owners of the N95 you’ll understand EISA’s reason for choosing this device to be the recipient of the said award. EISA said that the N95 contains every feature one can ever desire in a mobile gadget.

Nokia Battery

After some reports about certain Nokia mobile phones blowing up, the company is now voluntarily recalling approximately 46 million cell phone batteries that were manufactured by Matsushita Electric Industrial. Nokia also proposed to replace the said batteries; affected consumers only have to ask for a replacement.

Nokia Prism 7900 and Nokia Prism 7500

Nokia has a new phone collection up its sleeve. This handset developer recently unveiled their collection called Prism. The collection, composed of the Nokia 7900 Prism and the Nokia 7500 Prism, is aptly named because of its unique design. Where their previous handsets were made with smoothly flowing lines, the Prism is quite different because of its diamond-cut design with sharp-angles. I think this is also the first to portray geometric patterns on its design. Another great highlight is the graphic light retracting colors. These features alone can already make customers gravitate towards the Prism and even more with the capabilities contained in the Prism.

Nokia has recently come up with another first! Yes, this largest mobile phone maker unveiled their very first speakerphone which they tagged as the HF-300. This new devices is totally detachable and can be carried wherever you want to go! Being a detachable Bluetooth speakerphone, the HF-300 is a very advantageous device especially for drivers since it can be clipped on just any part of the car so they can drive and communicate at the same time. Powering up the HF-300 is a rechargeable battery that offers up to 20 hours talk time and once you’re through talking it will automatically shut off five minutes the cell phone connection is cut.

Touchscreen devices are really becoming the best things these days. After Apple’s iPhone, Nokia is now also gearing up in developing phones using the innovative touch control. To make this a reality, Nokia already has a long-term license to use Immersion’s VibeTonz Mobile Player technology. It is said that Nokia will use said technology in a variety of their mobile devices sold worldwide, a very advantageous move indeed because the technology enables the “unmistakable tactile cues” each time the icons on the screen are pressed. The technology generally produces vibrations that will enable the user to know if they were successful in activating certain applications in the phone, thus make the phone usage a much more enjoyable experience for them.

Nokia 3500

Not everyone can afford high-end and sophisticated handsets like the latest buzz iPhone. It’s a fact that a big percentage of the cell phone users belong to the mid-range population, a part of the population that Nokia now targets with their 3 new handset units namely the Nokia 6267, Nokia 6121 classic and the Nokia 3500. All of these phones are endowed with simple and easy-to-use features that will just suit the preference of the mid-range market. The Nokia 6267 for one has a colorful exterior adding to its attraction together with its highly capable features for multimedia applications.

Nokia 8600 Luna

Nokia is once again connecting people in a fascinating and stylish way with one of their recently unveiled cell phones – the Nokia 8600 Luna. I’m wondering why they called it Luna but I think it has something to do with the Moon due to the mystical image it projects with its ever glowing fascia. Its front portion is enclosed in smoked glass and underneath it is an illuminated keypad that gently vibrates when there’s a call on hold. This feature actually makes the phone come alive! Majority of the phone is made up of glass and stainless steel but adding more flavor to it are the materials like chrome, stainless steel and titanium. Careful and precise engineering is truly embodied in the phone.

After being on the quiet side in the cell phone department for a period of time, Nokia is back with vengeance with the announcement of 2 new handsets that will be released in the 3rd quarter of this year. I know it’s still kind of far away but it’s all good, at least it gives us something to look forward to, right? Anyway these two phones that will be joining the Nokia line up are the Nokia 2630 and the Nokia 2760. Price range will be around 85 Euro and 90 Euro respectively.

Nokia 8800 Sirocco Gold

Inspired by nature, and one of its most beautiful elements, gold, Nokia today unveiled the Nokia 8800 Sirocco Gold - a bold and prestigious new style statement. Encased in a luxurious 18-carat gold plating, the precisely crafted Nokia 8800 Sirocco Gold combines timeless design with a contemporary flair, resulting in an exclusive display of personal style and elegance. The Nokia 8800 Sirocco Gold is now available in select markets, with an estimated retail price of EUR 1000, before taxes or subsidies.

Nokia N95

Nokia is shipping their Nokia N95 multimedia computer to the Middle Eastern market. Its introduction in the region is accompanied by a lot of fun because there was a challenging treasure hunt involved. But aside from this region, the Nokia N95 will also be shipped in major European and Asian markets. Though the Nokia Nseries has been on the scene since last year, the new Nokia N95 offers better features being built on the Symbian OS and S60 interface.

Nokia 2626

A lot of mobile phone users not only look forward to a device that they can use for receiving and giving calls and sending SMS. A lot of users especially those belonging to the younger generation use the cell phone as a source of leisure. Instead of bringing along an mp3 player they make use of the phone for listening to some music. If you are one of those who want to have a cell phone that can also be used as a music player, worry no more because Nokia has recently launched a new mobile phone that has an all new improved FM radio with hands free speaker.
