16th November 2004 - Continuing to
expand its range of CDMA2000 1X handsets, Nokia today
introduced the mid-range Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i
camera phones for global CDMA markets at the 3G World
Congress & Exhibition 2004 held in Hong Kong. The
Nokia 6235 and 6235i phones are designed to appeal to
a wide range of users with a slim form factor, classic
chrome accents and a number of highly desirable features
including a 65,536 color screen, VGA camera, streaming
video capability and an integrated FM radio. The Nokia
6235 and Nokia 6235i phones are expected to be available
in North America, Latin America and Asia-Pacific markets
beginning in the second quarter of 2005.
While they are mid-range products, the Nokia 6235 and
Nokia 6235i phones offer a decidedly high-end feature
set. The VGA camera and video recorder allow owners
to easily capture and share compelling moments, and
an extra-large 10MB of dynamic memory provides plenty
of room for them to be stored. A built-in speakerphone
and voice recorder add a high level of convenience,
while high-fidelity MP3 ring tones and streaming video
capability add a high level of entertainment. For increased
productivity, the Nokia 6235 and 6235i can be easily
connected to a PC for mobile data connectivity or synchronized
using Nokia PC Suite and the built-in infrared port
or an optional USB cable.
"The Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i phones exemplify
how good design and a thoughtful feature set can result
in a product that can meet consumers needs in markets
around the world," said Timo Ihamuotila, senior
vice president of Nokia's CDMA business. "These
new products help us to further fill out our line of
CDMA phones, which range from entry level products that
have proven popular in new emerging markets to high-end
products like our folding Nokia 6255 phone."
Weighing 98 grams (3.46 ounces) and measuring 18 mm
(.7 inches) thick, the Nokia 6235 and Nokia 6235i phones
are designed to be comfortable to hold and easy to carry.
Despite their compact size, the Nokia 6235 and 6235i
phones offer extended operating times of 3 to 3.5 hours
talktime and 7 to 12 days standby. Nokia also offers
a wide range of enhancements for the Nokia 6235 and
6235i phones. Some of these include the Nokia Image
Viewer for displaying captured images on a TV, the Nokia
Music Stand for listening to the FM radio through stereo
speakers while charging the phone, and a selection of
Nokia Car Kits for convenient in-vehicle use.
