Nokia Launches First OLED Phone For US

Verizon has launched the Nokia 6215i, an entry-level CDMA clamshell phone. The handset has few notable features beyond a VGA camera and speakerphone, however it is still noteworthy. The 6215i is the first Pantech-produced Nokia to be sold through the carrier. Previous models that Nokia has re-badged for Verizon have been sold through resellers, but never on the carrier's store. The 6215i is also the first handset for the US with full color OLED main display. OLEDs are often used in external displays because they are brighter and use less power than LCDs and typically have a much larger viewing angle, however they have not been used as for primary displays since earlier, monochrome incarnations.

95% of my customers like the new UI. The only people who seem to complain about it are the people who post on this website.

Indeed we may make comments on UI's since we are aware of how other phones look and work. Some UI's are not in the habit of crippling certain features on the phones to force you to purchase their features.

Why Not Call It A Pantech?

Asian manufacturers carry more clout on CDMA anyways why not call it what it really is?.....a Pantech.

urnamehere

Cause nokia paid them a lot of money to call it something else. Most people don't know, but Verizon makes the manufacturers pay to have their names on the phones. Thats why you never saw an audiovox CDM-8940, you saw a Verizon CDM-8940. Audiovox didn'...
