Honest 836 Report post Posted April 13, 2010 Nokia C3, C6 and E5 Go Official, Coming Soon All QWERTY laden low to mid-cost smartphones Nokia has officially announced the existence of three new handsets - the Nokia C3, Nokia C6 and Nokia E5 all of them enabled with QWERTY keypads. The handsets which, according to Nokia, aim to put better messaging and social networking tools in the hands of more people around the world at affordable prices feature full email support, IM communities and social network integration. Let us now take a look at each of these new handsets in detail: Nokia C3 As the name suggests, this one looks to be the cheapest one amongst the lot. However, the C3 definitely isn t short on features. It happens to hold the distinction of becoming the first QWERTY keypad laden S40 device. The C3 features an easy to use home screen from where users have direct access to social networks. People can view, comment, update their status and share pictures to their favourite social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. It boasts of a 2.4 inch screen and also supports Ovi Mail and Ovi Chat. According to Nokia, this makes the phone easier for first time users who can set up email and chat accounts straight from the device, without the need for a PC. Surprise Surprise! Guess what? The C3 comes with Wi-Fi as well! There is a basic 2 megapixel camera at the rear. The phone supports memory expansion and can take up to 8GB of memory using microSD cards. The Nokia C3 is expected to be available in the second quarter of 2010 in a variety of colors, including golden white, slate grey and hot pink. The C3 is expected to be priced at 90 Euros (Rs. 5,500 approx.). Nokia C6 Next up is the Nokia C6 which moves up the price ladder and at the same time, also adds in a host of new features. Unlike the C3 which is a feature phone, the C6 happens to be a full fledged Symbian S60 based smartphone. It boasts of a large 3.2 inch touch screen display as well as a slide out QWERTY keyboard. Like the C3, this phone too displays social networking feeds right on the home screen. It also comes with a full suite of email and social networking capabilities. As for other features, the C6 boasts of a 5 megapixel camera complete with autofocus and flash. It also come preloaded with Ovi Maps and the Ovi Store applications. The C6 is expected to be available in the second quarter of 2010 at an estimated price of EUR 220. (Rs. 13,300 approx.) Nokia E5 Lastly, we have the Nokia E5, the youngest and the cheapest E-Series phone ever from Nokia! The E5 is a cute, -but professional looking Symbian-based smartphone and follows the successful blueprint of devices such as the Nokia E72 and Nokia E63. The Nokia E5 combines high quality business features with all of the personal networking and entertainment capabilities that a busy professional expects from a smartphone. The phone features a 5 megapixel camera, comprehensive connectivity options and integrated GPS. Like the aforementioned devices, this one too supports full e-mail, instant messaging and social network access. The E5 also provides direct access to over 90 percent of the world's corporate email through Mail for Exchange and IBM Lotus Notes Traveler. The E5 when launched would set you back by 180 Euros (Rs.10,000 approx.) and would be available by the third quarter of 2010. Courtesy : Techtree 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honest 836 Report post Posted April 16, 2010 E5 is model but what is 00 ? ^^^ My dear friend, Nokia is planning to name its devices with different SUFFIX. e.g. E5-00 will be replaced by E5-01 C5-00 will be replaced by C5-01 and so on.... This will allow Nokia to create more phones without crowding up and filling the name range from 1 – 9 quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
