Mobile Phones Coming Soon
Apple IPHONE 3G 8GB - Expected Release date: 11/07/2008
Whilst the hype surrounding the original iPhone might not have equally translated into sales, it can't be denied that the arrival of Steve Jobs and the boys revolutionised the mobile phone market – in the 12 months since the launch of the iPhone, we've seen numerous high powered smartphones complete with touchscreen interfaces and multimedia features being touted as 'iPhone killers'. Revolut...
Sony Ericsson W980I - Expected Release date: June 2008
The Sony Ericsson W980i is the latest handset to appear in the walkman range of mobile phones, but this is not what will grab the public’s attention. What will make people sit up and take notice is the frankly bizarre look of the handset. It looks a bit like something that Doc Brown from Back to the Future might have come up with in his basement while he was feeling particularly depressed (befor...
Nokia 3120 CLASSIC - Expected Release date: June 2008
The Nokia 3120 classic has continued the recent trend for Nokia to recycle some old product names, almost in an attempt to play on peoples nostalgia for ‘the good old days’ when ‘a phone was just a phone’. Even though the original 3120 only came out in 2004, so it hardly requires the memory power of Dustin Hoffman in ‘Rain man’ to remember that far back. So you would think that it is a bit prema...
Sony Ericsson G900 - Expected Release date: July 2008
Sony Ericsson has released a veritable feast of mobile phones very recently and the head of the table belongs to the G900. At first glance the G900 looks remarkably similar to the upcoming G700. The two handsets even have exactly the same dimensions and both weigh in at 99 grams. The keypad and screen of the G900 has the same utilitarian look as previous Sony Ericsson models but this is not a b...
Sony Ericsson G700 - Expected Release date: July 2008
The Sony Ericsson G700 is the almost identical younger brother of the G900 but it is definitely not a totally inferior sibling, it’s more of a Luigi to the G900’s Super Mario. But Sony Ericsson will be hoping that the G700 does not fade into the background. The G700 is a smartphone that has the same 2.4” 262K colour screen that also has touchscreen capabilities. The G700 comes in at 106 x 49 x ...
Nokia 6300I - Expected Release date: July 2008
The new Nokia 6300i is the sequel to the Nokia 6300, which was quite easily one of the best phones of 2007. It continues to be incredibly popular, more so than other handsets that Nokia have launched that have had better marketing behind them. With this in mind the Nokia 6300i has its work cut out and thankfully the Finnish manufacturer has played it safe. At first glance the Nokia 6300i looks a...
Nokia 7070 PRISM - Expected Release date: July 2008
The Nokia 7070 prism is the latest in the usually very expensive line of prism fashion phones. But the 7070 is definitely aimed at a mass audience and is not as prohibitively priced as most fashion handsets, which seem to take delight in charging the earth for very mediocre features. The 7070 prism is an unusual looking flip phone that has the same angular lines and cuts as the 7500 and the 7900...
Nokia N96 - Expected Release date: August 2008
The Nokia N96 arrives with a huge burden of expectation. The N95 was a smash hit for Nokia and it continues to sell well thanks to the recent 8GB re-fit. It has to be said at first glance the N96 is a bit underwhelming. It is very similar to the N82 that Nokia released a few months ago, which is not necessarily a bad thing. The beautifully stylised curves and shimmering black surface of the N9...
Nokia 3600 SLIDE - Expected Release date: September 2008
The Nokia 3600 slide was announced with as part of a range of mobile phones that have marketed under the heading ‘beautiful to use’. You can see that the 3600 slide is part of a concerted effort by Nokia to market several mid level handsets to a new type of customer and in many respects they succeed. The Nokia 3600 slide bears a slight resemblance to the older Samsung D900, with some obvious dif...
