Nokia C5 Photos

Posted by L.K. On July - 26 - 2010

The camera featuring devices of the Nokia are mostly going with the C series. One of these outstanding device is surely Nokia C5. Let’s have a look at the camera of the device.  The fact that the device is not equipped with an Autofocus gives an idea that the pictures taken by this gadget are not going to have a good quality.

We don’t really want to argue with you, but we would rather give you a list of photos taken by this device so that you can make the decision by yourself.

Recall that the most disadvantaging part of the camera of the device is the poor performance of the video. This means that you can take a video with only 15fps, which is not that appealing!

Nokia C6 Image – QWERTY Slider with Touch Screen

Posted by nokiamania On March - 14 - 2010

Some resources on the web have published an image of the second mobile device in a C series of Nokia . The model is called Nokia C6. It is a slider with touch screen and sliding QWERTY keyboard. Let us remind that the first smartphone of the line is called Nokia C5, it is a fairly simple device with a 2.2-inch display and numeric keypad. The device looks like a regular phone, though it is a smartphone under the control of Symbian S60 3rd Edition.

Previously it was assumed that Nokia C6 is a device known on the web under the name Mystic: bar form factor with a horizontal screen and QWERTY keyboard. But it turned out, that this is not the case. Late in February, Nokia C6 model was certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and even then it was clear that this is  just another device – longer and narrower  than the previous model(judging from the sketch). The new image is more similar to it. The only specs of Nokia C6 known are 256 MB of memory and a microSD slot. It is assumed that the new product will be released in Europe in summer. However, the manufacturer has not released any information about the price of the device yet.

New Nokia Mobile Phones

Posted by nokiamania On March - 5 - 2010

Nokia company has announced the launch of a line of Cseries devices, which will include models which are rich in features and affordable. Nokia C5 smartphone opens the new series, based on the platform of S60 third edition.

At the end of last year, Nokia CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo said that next year the company would present many new smart phones at affordable prices. Today Nokia keeps that promise starting the line of the budget phones Nokia Cseries. Let us remind that the company’s portfolio already includes a line of Nseries, Eseries and Xseries. Nseries include devices with maximum functionality, oriented for “geeks” and, consequently, most expensive, Eseries include devices optimized for e-mail and messaging, mainly oriented at corporate users. Xseries include multimedia devices for active audience. Cseries will also include low-cost feature-rich devices, oriented at the mass market. HTC successfully launches devices with similar positioning, for example Tattoo.

Nokia C5 opens the new line, made in a classic form-factor and based on the platform of the S60 third edition. It is equipped with a 2.2-inch screen with resolution of 320 x 240 pixels, a 3.2-megapixel camera, a 3,5 mm AV jack, radio, GPS-receiver and support for third-generation networks. Nokia stresses that this model is equipped with a free step by step and automotive navigation, but this is not its unique feature – the appropriate application (Ovi Maps 3) works on other devices.

The phone book of Nokia C5 allows you to see the status of contacts in the Facebook social network, and the home screen allows you to place a link to three friends for quick access to functions such as voice calls and messages. There are applications for direct access to Facebook, MySpace, YouTube and other sites.

Nokia Messaging service allows you to automatically receive text messages from different email accounts and messaging services. Mail, however, can be obtained without Nokia Messaging – mobile phone is provided with applications to work with the email by protocols POP3, IMAP4 and SMTP. Work time of Nokia C5 in offline regime is up to 12 hours of talk time and up to 26 days in standby mode.

The smartphone will be available in white and gray colours and will be on sale in the 2nd quarter of 2010 for a suggested retail price of €135 excluding taxes. MicroSD memory card capacity of 2 GB will be included in the device. The maximum supported memory card size in thr mobile phone is 16 GB. In the future, other smartphones of the series will be produced, while the number five in the labeling of products means that the current device will be based on functionality for the middle model line.

Nokia’s share of volume shipments of mobile phones, according to Gartner, last year decreased to 36.4% compared to 38.6% in 2008. According to the results, the company sold about 441 million cell phones, which is 2.2 percentage points less compared to 2008. In order to strengthen its position in the global market, last year Nokia announced about its intention to reduce the range of models and begin producing more affordable smartphones. In addition, the company signed an agreement with Intel, within the frames of which Maemo and Moblin open software platforms were merged into the MeeGo project. According to analysts, the effect of this transaction will manifest itself not early than the second half of 2010.
