Three New Low-cost Phones From Nokia

Recommended Posts

Techtree News Staff, May 18, 2009 1723 hrs IST

All cost less than Rs. 6,000!

Nokia has unveiled three new low cost 3G enabled phones aimed at emerging markets. The new models announced are Nokia 2730 Classic, Nokia 2720 Fold and Nokia 7020.

All three phones are Internet-ready, and work with Nokia's range of emerging market services such as Nokia Life Tools and Ovi Mail. Let's now delve into the finer details of each of the devices.

Nokia 2730 Classic

The 2730 Classic is a classic candybar phone featuring a decent spec sheet. It comes packed with a 2-inch QVGA (320*240) display, a micro USB connector, 30MB of expandable memory and Bluetooth 2.0. The phone is 3G ready and supports EDGE as well. The camera is a 2 megapixel unit with 4x digital zoom. The phone also comes with a standard 3.5mm jack. The phone will be available in the second quarter of this year at a price of Rs. 5,300

Nokia 2720 Fold

The Nokia 2720 Fold, as evident from the name, is a clamshell phone. This one will be slotted below the 2730 Classic. On the features front, this one sports a 1.8 inch display with a resolution of 128*160. It comes with 32MB of memory with no memory expansion capabilities, which I must say is unwarranted for. However, it does sport a 1.3 megapixel camera which should keep you happy. The 2720 is not 3G ready but supports EDGE. Bluetooth 2.0 support is present as well. This one is expected to make its debut in the fourth quarter of this year at an expected price of Rs. 3,600

Nokia 7020

Lastly, we have the 7020 which again is a clamshell phone. This one however is feature packed as compared to the 2720. The 7020 sports a 2.2 inch, QVGA display. The phone comes with 45MB of internal memory with support for memory expansion. On the imaging front, there is a 2 megapixel camera thrown in as well. This is a Quad band GSM phone with EDGE support. 3G however seems to be missing. Expect this one to grace your palms by the fourth quarter of this year at an approximate price tag of Rs. 6,000

2730 looks great, and the features are good too (micro USB connector, 3.5mm jack, fm, expandable memory). Let's see when Nokia launches it.

Hope the Classic name addition will not render in Nokia, the RCOM Classic disadvantages.

But honestly speaking, the 2730 looks very exciting and the pricing also looks very good. Hope the finish is not too plasticky for this price point. Will it have S60 or S40? If it is S60, then its a steal at this price point.
