Europe
: Continuing to expand its range of CDMA2000 1X handsets, Nokia today
introduced the mid-range Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i camera phones
for global CDMA markets at the 3G World Congress & Exhibition
2004 held in Hong Kong. The Nokia 6235 and 6235i phones are designed
to appeal to a wide range of users with a slim form factor, classic
chrome accents and a number of highly desirable features including
a 65,536 color screen, VGA camera, streaming video capability and
an integrated FM radio. The Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i phones are
expected to be available in North America, Latin America and Asia-Pacific
markets beginning in the second quarter of 2005.
While they are mid-range products, the Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i
phones offer a decidedly high-end feature set. The VGA camera and
video recorder allow owners to easily capture and share compelling
moments, and an extra-large 10MB of dynamic memory provides plenty
of room for them to be stored. A built-in speakerphone and voice recorder
add a high level of convenience, while high-fidelity MP3 ring tones
and streaming video capability add a high level of entertainment.
For increased productivity, the Nokia 6235 and 6235i can be easily
connected to a PC for mobile data connectivity or synchronized using
Nokia PC Suite and the built-in infrared port or an optional USB cable.
"The Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i phones exemplify how good design
and a thoughtful feature set can result in a product that can meet
consumers needs in markets around the world," said Timo Ihamuotila,
senior vice president of Nokia's CDMA business. "These new products
help us to further fill out our line of CDMA phones, which range from
entry level products that have proven popular in new emerging markets
to high-end products like our folding Nokia 6255 phone."
Weighing 98 grams (3.46 ounces) and measuring 18 mm (.7 inches) thick,
the Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i phones are designed to be comfortable
to hold and easy to carry. Despite their compact size, the Nokia 6235
and 6235i phones offer extended operating times of 3 to 3.5 hours
talktime and 7 to 12 days standby. Nokia also offers a wide range
of enhancements for the Nokia 6235 and 6235i phones. Some of these
include the Nokia Image Viewer for displaying captured images on a
TV, the Nokia Music Stand for listening to the FM radio through stereo
speakers while charging the phone, and a selection of Nokia Car Kits
for convenient in-vehicle use.
