Nokia announces three new mobile phone devices

THE world’s biggest manufacturer of mobile phones, Nokia, which enjoys the lion’s share in the African markets, has announced three new mobile phone devices that it believes will be a hit with customers around the world.

These are the 6303 classic, 6303 classic and the 2700 classic.

“Nokia today (Thursday) announced the Nokia 6700 classic, the Nokia 6303 classic and the Nokia 2700 classic, three devices that build on the formula that made Nokia the world leader in mobile phones. The new trio combines the functionality and user experience required in today’s hectic times, with premium designs and materials that make them the most beautiful, well built and competitively priced offerings available,” said the Finland-business company.

Soren Petersen, Senior Vice President of Nokia was confident the Nokia 6300 classic and 6700 classic would be among the best selling mobile phones this year.

“The Nokia 6300 raised the bar in terms of design and premium materials when it arrived in 2006 and topped all sales records for a mid-range mobile phone. The Nokia 6700 moves that bar even higher with a beautiful, slim design and perfectly balanced practicality. Our new arrival shares the same ‘DNA’ as its predecessor and we believe that it will be one of our best selling devices in 2009,” said Petersen.

Petersen said of the 2700 classic, “These features (2GB of storage via the memory card slot, integrated digital music player and a 2.0 megapixel camera), mean people can save, access and share files in hundreds of formats via Nokia’s online service, Share on Ovi, or a number of other websites.

The rich features and simple interface mean that in many cases, the Nokia 2700 classic will provide its owner’s first Internet experience.”

All three devices are expected to ship in the second quarter of 2009, Nokia said–
