Yesterday we reported Nokia's announcemnet of the Nokia 700, 701 and 600 Symbian Belle Smartphones. Well today Nokia have announced a couple of features phones - The Nokia 100 and 101. These new phones are supposedly the most affordable Nokia phones ever.
The Nokia 100 would b selling in the UK for roughly £17.60 it it gets released here, which is an absolute bargain! Also, the Nokia 101 will be selling for around £22 in the UK, again this depends on if the handsets are availble here in the UK. These prices might still change, so don't hold me to it. I must say that these prices are unbelievable when you think about what you're getting for your money.
Let's take a closer look a the two new feature handsets. First we have the Nokia 100, which is simple candybar style handset with an intergrated FM radio. The phone has your basic 12 keys and looks very much like a retro Nokia handset.
Next we have the Nokia 101, which is slight more expensive. This handset features a more or less identical form factor, but it also features an MP3 player, with added support for an external microSD cards. There is also a loud speaker option for the Nokia 101. The best feature has to be it's dual-SIM capabilities, and it also has a 1.8 inch 128 x 160 pixels display. These are not top of the range smartphone like the Nokia N8 Black, but they definitely serve their on purpose in the market.
As I said earlier, there is no gaurantee that these phones will be coming to the UK, and there is no information on any possible release dates for any of the countries in Europe. We'll keeo you updated...
