Nokia 8208 – where high tech meets high style

Today Nokia announced an exciting new mobile device for its select CDMA markets outside the US. The 3G speed, music capability and elegant, dual–slide function of this device brings consumers high-speed, high tech combined with good looks.



With its uncomplicated functionality, the new Nokia 8208 gives consumers a range of features, while turning heads with its design. “We instinctively wanted to carry out a very modern look and feel in the design of our new devices, and to bring consumers a wide range of features,” said Larry Paulson, Nokia Senior Vice President, CDMA Devices. “Consumers want devices that are beautiful to look at and reflect their individuality, but also have the functionality that keeps them connected to their world easily. This device echoes our goal to broaden the Nokia portfolio of high tech, yet stylish devices in select global CDMA markets.”

The sophisticated Nokia 8208 features a smooth, dual-slide form factor, and packs a dose of entertainment with its MP3 music player and 3 megapixel camera. The Nokia 8208 provides easy access to tunes through the phone’s dedicated music buttons, where music can be played for up to 20 continuous hours. Moments in life are captured in crisp, clear photos with the 3.0 megapixel camera. For easy music storage, a 16GB external memory card slot holds up to approximately 4,000 songs in AAC+ and MP3 digital music formats. When reaching for contacts, use the Speaker-Independent Name Dialing mode for hands free dialing, or assign photos to favourite contacts to quickly see who’s calling, or sending multi-media messages. With the super fast 3G connection, no more waiting around to get to the things you most like to use.

The Nokia 8208 is expected to launch in select CDMA markets, in the first quarter of 2009.
