I really hope that Nokia will stop calling their phones multimedia computers because they are pretty far from being what I consider a multimedia computer, but the new Nokia N82 looks like it can be a pretty good phone. The phone features a 5 megapixel camera with optics from Carl Zeiss and a xenon flash (no optical zoom yet though), GPS and Wi-Fi. The price in Europe will be €450 (roughly $650). More photos and press release inside.
While it looks very much like the mirror finished Z610 that was announced a little over a year ago, the Sony Ericsson Z750 offers a number of improvements that make the device viable to far more people than the original. Take, for example, the Z750’s new quad-band GSM/EDGE and tri-band UMTS/HSDPA connectivity. This means the Z750 will work on just about any GSM or UMTS network on the planet, something the tri-band GSM and single-band UMTS Z610 couldn’t claim. There are other changes as well, like the new GPS functionality and integrated Google Maps.
Just in time for the holiday season, Verizon Wireless has introduced a new device geared towards budget conscious music lovers, the Samsung SCH-U470, also known as the Juke. The Juke is basically a music player that just happens to also be a phone. Does the music centric Samsung Juke have what it takes to make it into little Johnny’s stocking this holiday season?
