Nokia today launched five new phones in new form-factors for Australia, which include three clamshell phones and two of their more traditional ‘candybar’ shapes.

The top-of-the-range ‘hero’ phone is the Nokia 6131, which boasts a 2.2″ display with 16.7 million colours, 1.3 MP camera, MP3 player and Bluetooth.<\/P>

The phones include: the 3G-enabled business 6233, which includes a Wireless Presenter function for controlling Power Point presentations; the entry-level Bluetooth 6103, with Push-To-Talk; and the 6125, with a 1.3 MP camera and MP3\/WMA support. <\/P>

The last phone on the list is the ‘candybar’ 6070, with ‘basic camera phone capabilities’ stereo FM, and MP3 ringtones.<\/P>

“One of our strengths is in our form-factors, especially with the new range. We had a lot of success with our ‘candybar monoblock’ phones, such as the 6070, and we feel this range build on our core strengths”, said Shaun Colligan, general manager of Nokia Australia.<\/P>

Colligan said he welcomed competition from Motorola and Sony Ericsson with their slim form-factor candybars, and added that “it’s about what we do for our customers that makes a difference”.<\/P>

Nokia currently has over 40 models in Australia and the new phones are part of their ‘classic’ range, which is the next step up from their pre-paid selection.<\/P>

The phones will be released in Q2 2006, with retail prices ranging between $200 and $500.<\/P>
