New folding camera phone offers classic style, excellent
usability and compelling features at an affordable price
Espoo, Finland, September 13, 2006 - Expanding its highly
popular portfolio of folding mobile phones, Nokia today introduced the new
Nokia 6085 camera phone at an affordable price. The Nokia 6085 emphasizes
ease-of-use, up to date technology and enduring design to create a
straightforward, familiar phone. With an estimated retail price of 175 EUR,
excluding taxes and subsidies, the quadband Nokia 6085 is expected to start
shipping in the fourth quarter of 2006.
"In Nokia's recent comprehensive consumer study, one of
the strongest trends was the appeal from many consumers in Europe and the
Americas for a mobile phone that offers the latest features, but is easy to use
on a day-to-day basis," says John Barry, Director, Broad Appeal Business
Unit, Mobile Phones, Nokia. "The Nokia 6085 has everything in balance -- a
modern design, an uncomplicated menu structure, and familiar technologies at an
attractive price. We believe the Nokia 6085 is a great addition to our highly
popular Connect portfolio."
Intuitive to use, comfortable to hold
Its subtle, organic design lines, clear keypad and an
uncluttered menu structure make the Nokia 6085 convenient to use. Complemented
by sophisticated detailing such as black soft touch paint and chrome accents,
this elegant phone is also a pleasure to hold. In addition to black, the Nokia 6085
will be available in a fresh colour selection, including sand gold, royal pink,
and seagull silver.
The Nokia 6085 features a highly readable, large colour
display with 262 000 colours. Additionally, the blue light display on the cover
makes it convenient to see who is calling, check the time and signal/battery
strength without the need to open the phone.
The Nokia 6085 includes a built in camera with a video
recorder with expandable memory, ensuring a camera is at hand for family
highlights, like a soccer match or dance rehearsal. Music lovers will enjoy the
Nokia 6085 phone's built-in music player and FM radio, as well as the stereo
audio streaming support for convenient use with wireless Bluetooth headsets.
Pictures, videos and music can be stored and shared using
the optional hot-swappable microSD memory card, which offers up to 2GB storage.
To complement the feature set, the Nokia 6085 offers wireless connectivity via
Bluetooth technology, making communication -- such as synchronization between phone
and PC, transferring images or usage of wireless enhancements -- with other
devices quickly and easily.
