Nokia 6700 is Classic Simple & Easy to use

Classic is always the new black with Nokia 6700

Classic styles are timeless looks that transcend trends and last through the decades. Typically, classic styles always start with a simple and practical design. Take the little black dress or a tailored suit jacket - a basic necessity in any fashionable wardrobe. Similarly, the quintessential handbag over the ages is a medium sized, simpleshaped, rich leather purse.

The new Nokia 6700 classic - heralded for its classic design, impressive features and consumer friendly price tag - will appeal to those who appreciate timeless style.

The Nokia 6700 classic continues the legacy of one of the company's most successful products, the Nokia 6300, offering consumers a stylish yet practical, feature-led mobile phone.

Product manager for Nokia Australia and New Zealand, Stephen Wright, said: "Today a mobile phone is as much a fashion accessory as any other fashion item. Just like a classic pair of sunglasses or the staple black dress, a mobile phone represents personal taste and individual style.

"With its slim design and elegant colour set, the Nokia 6700 classic is a timeless piece and will appeal to those who want a stylish yet practical device, packed with features - at an affordable price," Mr Wright said.

The Nokia 6700 classic combines smooth surfaces, rich materials and quality crafted parts, together with a full metal key mat. The device also sports a five megapixel camera and LED flash, making it an excellent imaging device. This combined with fast Internet connection speeds allows you to upload photos and video clips of your favourite places and share experiences with friends via Ovi Share - share.ovi.com - Nokia's media sharing platform.

Other handset features include assisted GPS navigation with Nokia Maps, MP3 player and FM radio, extended talk time, enhanced talk quality and background noise reduction and support for up to 8GB MicroSD memory card to store your favourite songs and multimedia content.

The Nokia 6700 classic is available in Australia through Vodafone, Optus and 3 and from leading retailers with a RRP of AUD$589.
