Nokia's 6125 clamshell

by Ryan Block, posted Jan 16th 2006 at 9:45AM

Being that it's quad-band GSM/GPRS you wouldn't think Nokia's new 6125 would round out with many of the features it's got, but for whatever reason they've included a 1.3 megapixel digital camera, Bluetooth 2.0 (did someone say A2DP?), FM radio, media playback software, IrDA, USB, and MicroSD. Still, we think €230 (about $280 US) might be a little unreasonable for a phone that isn't even 3g, but who knows if the thing's even coming stateside anyhow.

Nice. It's like a usable 6101!

It better be coming stateside!

Nokia sent me a postcard flyer advertising the phone. Mailed it to my home address (in the US). It had no other details than the PR on the phone though.

It *is* 2.5G.

GSM = 2G

GPRS = 2.5G

EDGE = 2.75G

UMTS = 3G

I picked up a prepaid 6101 a few months back for just over a third of the price of this guy here, since I'm one of those weird people who have no need for bluetooth (for the time being). I have to say, as a phone it's very nice and sounds great even with a crappy signal. I don't use the MP3 ringtones, video recording or any of that fluff, but I don't think I could if I wanted to because it has like 3MB of internal memory with no expansion; half of which is already used up out of the box.

This 6125 has MicroSD which will, as mroach partially implied, help the usability of this phone significantly as well as the bluetooth, media player, etc. It looks like it has an internal antenna too. The only thing is that I don't particularly like Nokia's PC Suite software very much.

Of course, ever since I saw the new interface for Moto's A910, I've been keeping an eye out for how that UMA love is coming along. Those screenies had "T-Mobile" written in the interface too.

Unlike Engadget claims it's got EDGE and it costs �230 _without subsidies_.

EDGE is supported as LH said
