Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted October 23, 2008 Nokia is out with a new CDMA phone - 2228. The low-end device seems designed to help the Finnish giant grab some marketshare in the CDMA space, where traditionally Nokia doesn’t stack well. Being a low-end/entry-level device means there’s nothing to get too excited. The Nokia 2228 is a simple clamshell phone, sporting such features as a 1.3 megapixel camera, 128×160 pixels screen, music player, 2.5 mm universal headset jack, FM radio, and a neat LED indicator light that flashes with incoming calls or messages waiting. Size wise, the device measures 110×40x12 mm and has a weight of 72 grams. According to the official information, the Nokia 2228 is expected to launch in select CDMA markets in Q4 2008, meaning we could see it being introduced by the carriers anytime soon.

savramesh 37 Report post Posted October 24, 2008 its only a few months after re-signing agreement with qualcom. don't worry cdma invention on higher end mobiles will be going on.. this model is only a mean time product to show their return.. if they fix a cheap price for this model similar to gsm handsets, then surely they plan to enter cdma completely..

vinayhabib 5 Report post Posted December 4, 2008 Guys, I am currently using this Nokai 2865 phone. Due to excessive use, I started facing problems with the ear-piece. I desperately wanna change the handset. But no new handsets seem to be that good. I also checked the Nokia 6275. I'm not quite happy with it. Any updates on this model Nokia 2228 as to when it's gonna be available here in India? Or any other new models which are to arrive anytime soon? Please keep posted about this topic. Many Thanks, Vinay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
