It has been a while since Nokia announced a new phone. I believe this is due to the recent changes adopted by the company - like making future smartphone with Windows Phone 7 and not Android. In my opinion Nokia made a good decision for buying Symbian but then they did not invest enough for a fast development of this OS. Then they were too afraid to adopt new and more efficient operating systems like Android. Now customers are waiting for their new smartphones generation with Windows Phone 7.
But until that time Nokia has announced a few days ago a low cost device which has a minimum set of hardware features. This is a phone only for voice, messages and music as the screen is only about 1.8 inches TFT. The device has a loud speaker on the back, a 3.5 mm audio jack, FM radio and mp3 player to listen music as you wish. Also has a microSD card slot which can take up to 16 GB, dedicated music keys, a flashlight and is running the Symbian Series 30. The only data connection is GPRS.
There are two most important things I like on this phone. One is the battery life - about 61 days stand-by performance - that I believe will make you forget you have a charger. The other is the price which will be below 35 Euros.
