Nokia 8800 Sirocco Review

The 8800 Sirocco Edition’s exterior looks liquid with a dent in its slide and a redesigned keyboard. Some folks are claiming the new model will upgrade the cam from SVGA to a full 2 megapixels. The 8800 has not intention of being a GSM phone currently and there are no availability information yet.

This newest version of the ultra stylish Nokia 8800 does receive a facelift and a newly designed keypad. Word is this information is still unofficial and it seems Nokia has pulled the updated design photos of 8800 from its German website, which used to be here.

While Nokia is playing cat and mouse an online retailer let the pricing info out of the bag, supposedly 1100 EURO’s. Silver 8800’s are done, so we’ll gladly take the new sexy black Sirocco edition.

The reborn Nokia 8800 SE would have a 2 megapixel camera. It will probably keep the tri-band GSM support, 64MB of internal memory and a 262K color display with a resolution of 208×208 pixels of the original Nokia 8800. Following the current trends, the phone would also feature a well-developed music player and enhanced Bluetooth capabilities, although even the regular Nokia 8800 supported the A2DP profile allowing listening to music on a stereo Bluetooth headset. It is not yet known whether the new edition will have memory card slot.
