While clearly not aimed at the deep-pocketed folks looking at those fancy N96s, the purported 7310 Classic makes us remember why S40 mobiles are still viable in a plethora of scenarios. Though we haven’t seen anything official from Nokia, word on the street has the candybar likely checking in with a 2.2-inch QVGA display, multimedia [...]

For a phone that came out in 2006, it’s kinda surprising how much interest (both from carriers and end users) that the Nokia N95 series continues to enjoy. With any luck, we’ll be seeing it launch on AT&T later this year — but Rogers is apparently poised to beat ‘em to the punch. Mobile In [...]

Looking to keep the heat on after its XpressMusic reveals last week, Nokia has gotten real with a three-pack of dumbphones that eschew S60 but hang onto a laundry list of relatively high-end features. The 6600 comes in both “fold” and “slide” designations, but the spec sheets are surprisingly different considering that they share a [...]

Just days after Telus picked up the attractive LG Venus, the carrier has officially started offering up the Motorola Mike i877. The half-rugged, half-sleek looking flip phone was designed by Pininfarina and features integrated Bluetooth, a multimedia player (MP3, AAC, WMA), microSD expansion slot, miniUSB port, 1.3-megapixel camera, VibraCall, a digital voice recorder and the [...]

You know how it goes — when you’re this high-end, don’t even bother waiting for your bestest of friends to toss you a birthday party to celebrate ten years of mindless self indulgence. Instead, Vertu’s doing the only thing it really can by cranking out a fashionable new collection to commemorate its decennial anniversary. The [...]

Not that we haven’t ever seen a mobile get that mildly interesting SRS WOW badge slapped on it before, but Philips is becoming the next to do so with its M600. This oh-so-sleek candybar makes a play for the music lovers heart — well, so long as said adorer is in China, anyway. Aside from [...]

We’ve already seen one hybrid satellite phone shown off far in advance of its promised release date this month, and Elektrobit now looks to be doing things one better, with it debuting an even less satellite phone-looking device that’s supposedly coming even sooner. If the company is to be believed, you’ll be able to get [...]

Sony Ericsson’s leaky enough so that we’ve had no problem believing that the BeiBei is dead real, but as we’ve seen with the M610i, a very real and very well-developed Sony Ericsson prototype by no means guarantees a release. That being said, we’re starting to get pumped that this one might live long enough to [...]

Reaction to NTT DoCoMo’s new logo has been mixed, but when it comes to the carrier’s phones, there’s still very little to not love — and when we say “love,” we mean “feel sorry for ourselves that we don’t have access to these things.” The recently-announced (and copied) Raku-Raku F884i from Fujitsu is now available [...]

While we patiently wait for Nokia’s current, “no major new products” fiscal quarter to expire, we’ll have to trudge through releases like these 5320 (left) and 5220 (your other left) candybars. As members of the XpressMusic range the devices themselves are fine. Unfortunately, fine isn’t going to win back that 1% lost market share. The [...]
