Among these delicious treats are three new smartphones namely Nokia E7, Nokia C7 and Nokia C6. The handsets are powered by the latest Symbian platform while offering over 250 new features and enhancements.  They render support for multiple homescreens, gesture-based interactions, visual multitasking and fewer prompts. The company also announced a better Ovi Store experience and the beta release of free Ovi Maps complete with motorist and pedestrian features.The Nokia E7 is claimed to be the ultimate business smartphone as it comes complete with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, a full keyboard and 4 inch touchscreen display adorned with Nokia ClearBlack technology. The phone enables users to comfortably review spreadsheets, work on documents or edit and read slides. To further cater to this niche of customers, the company also offers a mix of business grade security solutions.“Today our fight back to smartphone leadership shifts into high gear. Despite new competition, Symbian remains the most widely used smartphone platform in the world. Our new family of smartphones introduced today feature the all-new Symbian OS, rewritten to be faster, easier to use, more efficient and more developer friendly. Based on the level of consumer interest and the highest online pre-orders in Nokia history, we expect big things from the Nokia N8,” commented Niklas Savander, Executive Vice President, Markets, Nokia.

The countdown is over and the mystery is solved. Nokia just let us in on the secret of its “everyone connect” teaser: a trio of new middling handsets. Yes folks, hardware, but not the N-series flagship many of you were hoping for. Instead we’ve got a handful of affordable QWERTY cellphones bent on bringing messaging and social networking to the masses. Naturally, these devices aren’t going to compete for the attention of the N8-00 crowd — that’s fine, they’re not meant to. Today’s launch is part of Nokia’s global strategy to push the smartphone experience down into the dumbphone market.Let’s start things off with the colorful C3-00 (available Q2 for €90 pre-tax and pre-subsidy) — Nokia’s first Series 40 QWERTY. The quad-band GSM candybar crams its social networking tools onto a 2.4-inch QVGA homescreen with Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi, and 55MB of internal memory (and up to 8GB supported on microSD) coming along for the ride. It’s also packing the Opera Mini browser in addition to the standard Webkit fare for browsing the mobile internet on the C3′s paltry EGPRS data connection. But hey, €90. Moving on, we’ve got the more ambitious C6-00 (Q2, €220) 4-row QWERTY slider with quad-band GSM/EDGE and quad-band HSDPA/UMTS on the 850/900/1900/2100 frequencies. The familiar looking C6 runs S60 5th on that 3.2-inch nHD (640 x 360 pixel) touchscreen (resistive, we presume) with a 5 megapixel autofocus camera and flash riding the backside. Of course, it also features integrated A-GPS for free Ovi Maps turn-by-turn navigation as is the case for all new Nokia GPS-enabled smartphones. Finally we’ve got the E5-00 (Q3, €180) for those in need of a S60 3rd device that’s a bit more business-minded than the C3 but twice the price (but still cheap). That means tri-band UMTS, A-GPS, WiFi and another unfortunate 2.4-inch LCD. Full press release after the break.

Suppose Nokia. Well, it can be done, since Nokia is an inanimate concept say that Nokia CEO of Nokia Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo. What is a good show, the scene of the new line of low-end smartphones, which can generate a ton of buzz about? Why monstrous CeBIT, of course! It is a little creativity in the composition of the Nokia Discussions official statement, which appears along rumors, CSeries arc is finally ready to give:  Obviously, not rumors or commenting on leaks, but we look forward to C just next round of announcements from Nokia. right, go to our backpack and lederhosen, C, get it.  Get it? All  C  references? Yes, it looks like a castle. We do not know what mobile phones will occur, but the most likely candidate, the C5 and C6, the latter of which could have some legs E72 as an alternative. Speaking of the C6, which has been approved by the FCC this week, with 850, 1900 and 2100 MHz 3G – so do not worry, the people of AT & T, what works well for you when you start. Stay tuned because CeBIT is only a few days.
