"From the introduction of Nokia's most affordable megapixel camera phone, to a localized email solution in South Africa, we believe today's announcements demonstrate Nokia's firm commitment to bringing products and services that serve the varied needs and tastes of people in emerging markets."

Nokia's first slide device for entry markets, the Nokia 2680 slide, is a slim camera phone that offers a balance of ease of use and entertainment functionality, including an FM radio with recording capability and MP3 ringtones, and core mobile phone features such as an expanded phone book.

Comparison of Nokia 7500 and Nokia 7900 Features

The world of Nokia Mobile Phones is so huge and vast. They create perfect mobile pieces according to the needs of their users. Frankly speaking, Nokia mobile phones are very much impressive and reliable. They all are filled with superb and all the latest technologies. I am a great fan of Nokia mobiles and like them very much. Last week, I went to a Nokia PriorityCenter to buy a perfect piece of Nokia for me. There, I found two handsets named Nokia 7500 and Nokia 7900 that captured my attention at once.

Both of the phones belong to the Prism family of Nokia. The Nokia 7500 is a Tri-Band GSM mobile phone with a 16M TFT Colour screen integrated in it. A 2MP camera, music player, video player and the connectivity options like GPRS,HSCSD, EDGE, Bluetooth and USB add to the flawless perfection to this handset. Whereas the Nokia 7900 is a 3G enabled Quad-Band GSM mobile phone that comes with an integrated 16M ColoursOLED Screen, a 2MP Camera, music player, video player, and connectivity options like GPRS, EDGE, HSCSD, 3G, Bluetooth, and USB that add more worth to this handset.

Both of the devices are almost the same in size, colour, appearance, and presentation. However, the only difference between both of these devices is that the Nokia 7900 is a 3G enabled phone withOLED screen and 1GB of internal memory with no external memory support. Whereas the Nokia 7500 is not 3G enabled and uses TFT screen but supports memory cards as its external memory with the internal memory of 30MB. Friends, now I am in dilemma that which one to buy and which one to refuse. Please help me in finding the perfect Nokia Prism for me.

Nokia N95 8GB

Bulky by today’s standards the Nokia N95 8GB is a wonderfully functional device that exemplifies the phrase all-in-one.it looks slightly dated now, but the mix of rubberized black rear finish and the glossy black front finish still grabs attention, as does the beautiful crisp 2.8 inch screen and the unique 2-way slider.The front chrome buttons atop the front add a very PDA-like feeling, but unfortunately the large, gorgeous screen isn’t touch capable. The menu button and the keypad layout is  very good, and with a load of shortcut keys the N95 8GB is very ergonomic. With features like built in GPS and support for Nokia Maps, and a built-in 8 GB of storage, in addition to goodies like WiFi and a 5 megapixel camera this phone has something for everyone.

Amongst our complaints and suggestion for improvements are a slightly larger screen 3.2 inch a better battery, touch screen, and a Xenon flash for a camera, and the slider mechanism from the Nokia’s Sirocco series. And can be a little slimmer? And can we get more than 8 GB of storage?

Photos: LG Joy and Samsung i520

Today Crave went along to the Symbian smart phone show. The event is held every year and we expected to hear the same old 'smart phones are the future' speech and see some interesting new Symbian applications. However, what we didn't expect to see were LG and Samsung's new phones running on the Symbian OS.

The LG Joy (pictured left) is based on the Symbian OS v9 and S60 3rd edition feature pack 1. It features a 61mm (2.4-inch) colour screen, expandable microSD slot and HSDPA (3.5G) connectivity for broadband-like speeds on the go. It also boasts a 2-megapixel camera for snapshots and a VGA one for video calls. Considering how many features it has, we were really impressed at how light it felt.

This is the first time LG has used the Symbian OS on a handset, and from what we saw it's not bad. Strangely enough, it feels more like a Nokia to use than a LG, which may or may not be a good thing.

Samsung also launched a handset based on Symbian OS v9 and S60 3rd edition feature pack 1, called the SGH-i520 (pictured right). The i520 also features HSDPA connectivity and a 2-megapixel camera. Other features include a 58mm (2.3-inch) colour screen, A2DP Bluetooth stereo connectivity and an expandable microSD slot. Expect a full review of both handsets soon. -AL
