Nokia 6290, 6300, 6086 and 2626
Nokia today announced a mixed bag of handsets aimed at several different market segments, all due for release during the first quarter of 2007.
Nokia 6290
A surprisingly bland phone at first glance, the Nokia 6290 looks like most other 6000 series clamshells. However, appearances can be deceptive and the 6290 is actually a 3G smartphone, running the cumbersomely named Symbian S60 Third Edition Feature Pack 1 operating system package. There’s also a 2.2" 240x320 pixel display, 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, a multimedia player and expandable memory.

Nokia 6086
Another unassuming Nokia clamshell with hidden depths - this is basically a Nokia 6085 with added WiFi and UMA-based VOIP calling, as is the Nokia 6136. In fact the 6086 is pretty much just a slightly cut down version of the 6136. Orange will be one of the first operators to pick up the 6086.

Nokia 6300
The Nokia 6300 is a stylish and fairly lightweight handset that features something of a different design direction from other 6000 series handsets. Apart from the two-tone cosmetics, the 6300 features a stainless steel frame in a case and a slim-but-tall design. There’s also a 2 megapixel camera, 240x320 pixel display, expandable memory, Bluetooth and an MP3 player, all in a handset weighing just 91 grams.

Nokia 2626
A basic and very inexpensive handset, the Nokia 2626 is slated to cost just �75 before tax or subsidy. It’s a upgrade to the Nokia 2610 model with a better screen (128x128 pixels in 65,000 colours) and GPRS data plus an FM radio. It’s certainly a good looking handset for the money.
