Nokia today unveiled a trio of new messaging devices, including new phones in the burgeoning Cseries line. All of the new phones, the C3, C6 and E5, sport a full QWERTY keyboard, and the C6 features a touchscreen, as well.
- C6: The Nokia C6 is a touchscreen QWERTY slider running Symbian S60 5th edition. The phone features a high resolution, 3.2 inch screen. Around back, the C6 uses a 5 megapixel camera. The phone gets Nokia Messaging support and the free Ovi Maps navigation service. Nokia says the phone will last for 7 hours of talking time. The Nokia C6 will be available Globally in Q2 2010. Nokia will have two variants of this phone, one of which will support AT&T's 3G network in the 850 band.
- C3: The Nokia C3 is the least expensive of the bunch, coming in at €90 without subsidies. The slab QWERTY phone runs the simpler S40 operating system, and it gets Nokia Messaging support, but not Ovi Maps. The Nokia C3 does feature Wi-Fi, but other features are more low-end. The phone lacks 3G networking capabilities, and sticks with quad-band EDGE for data. The Nokia C3 will also be available in Q2 2010.
- E5: The Nokia E5 succeeds the Nokia E71 and E72 on the business phone lineup. Though the E5 is a bit thicker than its predecessors, it's also a bit lighter. Nokia claims the E5 will get 18.5 hours of talk time. The phone runs Symbian S60 3rd edition, and will come with Ovi Maps on board. Nokia lists the E5 in two distinct 3G flavors, one of which includes support for AT&T's 3G radio bands, though the company has yet to confirm that we'll see this phone stateside. It will be available in Q3 2010.

ZING! Thats gotta hurt 🤣 🤣 🤣
This is a Nokia global release. That means they are not targeting any specific carrier and that they are probably announcing the most popular/first to release versions first. Believe it or not, changing frequency bands is not a matter of just poppin...

familiar resemblance?
Is it just me, or does the "pink" phone (since you have no way of distinguishing the C3 from the E5) look a lot like the Blackberry Curve 8520?
On a lighter note, Nokia's smartphones aren't bad at all...they just don't have any flash and dash.

Give us an Android phone.

PS. I don't care about any of these other phones. Neither do a lot of other people.

More like Meego phones, and one's with NAM 3g. Doubtful you will see a Nokia Android device. Not impossible but doubtful.
BTW, while I'm not interested in these new phones, there are those who don't jump on the smartphone train whom will be more ...
