Nokia 6282: High-speed UMTS performance for 3G customers
New York, NY, US - As part of its annual
Capital Market Days event, Nokia (NYSE: NOK) today unveiled one of the
industry's first mobile handsets designed to support 1900MHz UMTS
networks expected to go online in the Americas during 2006. In addition
to enabling 3G services, the new Nokia 6282 phone features a 2.2 inch,
320x240 pixel QVGA display, a 1 megapixel camera, FM radio, digital
music player with hot-swappable miniSD card support, Bluetooth
technology and an eye-catching sliding design. The Nokia 6282 phone
(GSM 850/1900/1800/UMTS 1900 MHz) is expected to be available during
the first quarter of 2006 in markets offering 1900MHz UMTS service.
New UMTS networks supported by the Nokia 6282 phone
enable customers to access a number of exciting 3G services. Some of
these services include streaming multimedia audio and video content and
the rapid upload and download of large files - including downloadable
games and video, MP3 or AAC ringtones, or over-the-air synchronization
of calendar, contact and to-do information using the built-in SyncML
client.
"With the introduction of the Nokia 6282 phone, we
are helping to make the promise of high-speed UMTS services in the
Americas a reality," said Kai Oistamo, senior vice president, Mobile
Phones, Nokia. "Although it weighs barely 4 ounces, the Nokia 6282
phone is among the most advanced wireless devices available in this
market. Without sacrificing size, style or performance, this sleek new
device puts a world of possibilities into the hands of consumers in the
Americas."
Featuring the Series 40 Platform 3rd Edition, the
Nokia 6282 phone offers users an intuitive way to access the power of
this new device. While supporting the latest messaging, browsing, music
and video standards, this new interface also takes full advantage of
the Nokia 6282 phone's QVGA display by using an 'Active Standby Mode',
which allows the idle screen to keep owners informed of calendar and
to-do items and to provide quick access to the most-used applications.
The stylish slide design of the Nokia 6282 phone
keeps the extra-large display in sight at all times, yet allows it to
remain ultra-compact while in the closed position. Additionally, by
positioning the imaging controls on the exterior, the Nokia 6282
quickly converts to a conventionally-oriented imaging device that
allows 1 megapixel still images and 15 frame-per-second VGA video
content to be captured by using the screen as a horizontal viewfinder.
