Nokia N96

The Nokia N96 is set to be yet another super high-end mobile phone from Nokia's famed N-Series. More a sister to the N95 than a successor, the N96 focuses strongly on multimedia, and yet does all the things the N95 did so much better. It will be expensive, of course, when it debuts - around 550 Euros is the current estimate, with a release date of August / September but as a high end do everything phone with unrivalled features, the Nokia N96 is going to be a hard phone to beat.

Motorola KRZR

Motorola recently announced its new Motorola KRZR mobile phone, and PhoneDaily have managed to get a sneak preview. The phone itself is pretty unremarkable actually, it's very unremarkable - but you can't deny it looks good. OK, it looks like a RAZR, but it's still good looking.
Interestingly, PhoneDaily point out the differences between the KRZR K1 (GSM/EDGE edition) and the KRZR K1c (CDMA EV-DO edition).

The K1, for example, sports a 2 megapixel camera, whilst the K1c only a 1.3 megapixeller. The KRZR K1 has a 260k colour TFT screen, whilst the K1c has only a 65k colour screen. Neither are exactly pushing the limits of technology
Finally, the KRZR's user interface (both phones share the same interface) is apparently quite good and intuitive. You can manage your pics easily, play your Java J2ME games (they both come with Block Breaker Deluxe) and sync your contacts list with your PC via the built-in USB port (though oddly, the K1 has its USB port on the right, whilst the K1c has it on the left!).
Conclusion: the Motorola KRZR K1 and K1c are good looking mobile phones, but their features are already dated. Go for the K1 if you can (though obviously this will depend on whether your network supports GSM/EDGE or CDMA/EV-DO) or better still, go for something else entirely

Sony Ericsson C702

The Sony Ericsson C702 Cyber Shot phones don't just add more megapixels anyone can do that, and not necessarily with good results. LG have had a 5 megapixel camera on the market since 2006 with the LG KG920, but despite its megapixellage, its picture quality was poor.
It wasn't until Sony Ericsson came along with the K850i that a 5 megapixel camera phone made sense, with picture quality that rivalled that of low end dedicated digital cameras.

The star of the show as far as pictures are concerned, though, is the Sony Ericsson C902 Cyber Shot camera phone (left and top).
Featuring a huge 5 megapixel camera complete with autofocus, the C902 also offers sophisticated image and video stabilisation features, and a proper photo flash (the C702 only offers a photo light)

Is it True ???

Sony Ericsson may have released the K850i, its latest and best Cyber Shot camera phone, but it's no match for Japan's latest technological marvels. 5 megapixel camera? White balance, BestPic technology and Xenon flash.
No, what the techno savvy Japanese market cries out for is an x-ray phone - not to see people's bones, you understand, but to see what's under their clothes! This is Japan, remember, what else would they use an x-ray phone for?

You can see a picture from the latest Japanese X-Ray phone, the 5005x, after the jump but be warned, it may not be safe for work!
As you can see, the 5005x really does have what can safely be called a killer app. It features sophisticated nipple-detection algorithms, too, to protect the modesty of young ladies like the one in the pic.

NOKIA N 95

The N95 is the flagship multimedia computer/smartphone device by Nokia. Offering a drool-worthy list of features, it's designed to do a lot in an extremely pocketable package.
And, at the same time, the Symbian OS and accompanying PC Suite software tend to give a soft edge to the cutting edge features found within the N95.
In my time with this device, I battled with it as a smartphone, and marveled at it as a regular phone. I "found" reasons to use the camera and Wi-Fi; and saw the reactions from others around me who gave reasons why such a device is both good and bad.
But when all was said and done with the N95, I gathered a level of respect for Nokia that I had not had before. And even more than that, I figured out what I need in my own personal computing device.

NOKIA 7310

The new 7310 Classic was recently caught in live images, allowing us to form a better idea about how it looks. With a metallic keypad and a fashionable pattern all over its case, the phone looks quite stylish, being simple but elegant.

The known features of 7310 Classic include: a 2.0 inch TFT display with 16 million colors and 240 x 320 pixels, Symbian S40 OS, Music player, Bluetooth 2.0, a 3.5mm audio jack, 40MB of built-in memory and microSD card for up to 4GB of extra storage space. There's also a 2 Megapixel camera initially, a 3.2 Megapixel one was rumored, but it seems users will have to be happy with 1.2 MP less.

Although Nokia 7310 Classic is both slim and lightweight, measuring only 106.5 × 45.4 × 11.9 millimeters and weighing 80 grams, it's said to be packing a quite powerful battery, capable of providing up to 6 hours of talk-time and up to 260 hours of stand by time.
