Nokia Connection 2009: Unveiling of Nokia E72, Nokia 5530 Xpressmusic, Nokia 3710 Fold

I am right now in Singapore for the Nokia Connection 2009 and I am just overwhelmed at the number of Nokia models surrounding me. I will write more on these Nokia models but for now, let me introduce you to the new Nokia smartphones we can expect over the next couple of months.

Nokia released several new smart phones as part of their commitment to deliver compelling mobile solutions that can be personalized by users. The event began with a keynote presentation by Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer Mary McDowell, who described Nokia’s vision of a world where people are “empowered to share and connect with what matters to them through highly personalized and contextually relevant solutions.”

To make this vision a reality, Nokia provides technology, services, and new devices to Singapore and its neighbors. Vice President of Sales in the SEAP region Chris Carr says that the emerging markets of Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Vietnam are already accessing the internet from mobile phones – and Nokia played a pivotal role in this development.

Here is a sneak preview of the new Nokia smartphones you can expect over the next couple of months.


Nokia E72

The latest in the E-series lineup is the new Nokia E72, a full QWERTY smartphone that brings a rich mobile email and IM experience for those who want to connected and productive in their personal and professional lives. Like its predecessor, the Nokia E71, the Nokia E72 can set up IM accounts provided by Nokia Messaging. Once the account is set up, device owners can connect to their favorite instant messaging accounts like Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, and Ovi. The Nokia E72 will be shipping in the third quarter of 2009.

  1. Pretty cool! I’m using now an E63, and I often wonder how it differs from the E71 series. 🙂
