Nokia C2-06 Prototype Leaks In India, Low-End Slider

It looks like a prototype of Nokia's upcoming C2-06 handset has just leaked out somewhere in India. The display is said to be sport a resistive touchscreen, so hopefully they change that to capacitive before they release it. Sadly, this one's a low-end slider with no WiFi or 3G support so it should be fairly cheap to get unlocked. However, it does have Bluetooth support but that's just about the only positives for this one. Price is unknown yet but it's running S40 6th Edition.

Mobilicity Releasing the Nokia E73 On April 21, Bell Getting the Samsung Galaxy 551 On April 28

At least two more handsets are headed to Canada before the end of the month. First off, Mobilicity will be getting the handset you see above, that's the Nokia E73. This handset will be available starting on April 21st for $159.99 contract-free which is pretty good if you know how to navigate your way around the S60 OS.

Bell will also be getting their own new Android handset a week later, on April 28th. It's going to be what you see above and for a clearer picture you can look below. They're going to be releasing the Samsung Galaxy 551 which is pretty good mid-end handset that'll fit well with their current line-up. This handset features a 3.2-inch touchscreen display with a 240 x 400 resolution, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, WiFi support, a 3MP camera, a microSD card slot, and Android 2.2 "Froyo" with the Touchwiz UI. The price is unknown right now so we'll have to wait for that.

Nokia's First Windows Phone 7 Handsets To Be the W7 and W8

It tells us absolutely nothing about Nokia's future with Windows Phone 7 but their first two devices running on Microsoft's mobile OS will reportedly be the W7 and the W8. Apparently, Eldar Murtazin got a hands-on with said devices and they're still in prototype form - of course. The W7 supposedly features a Qualcomm chipset and an 8MP AF camera with a flash on the back and since it's a Nokia phone, it should be a pretty good sensor. The W8, on the other hand, shares a resemblance to the Nokia N8 (pictured above) but hopefully they make it look a bit better this time around. Hopefully, these leak soon and maybe we'll be seeing these launch before Christmas this year.

Nokia Announces Symbian Anna Update; Also E6 and X7 Handsets

Today isn't just HTC's day, Nokia announced two new handsets today as well as Symbian "Anna" which is an update for the N8, E7, C7, and C6-01 and will be the first of a few more updates to the outdated OS. In brief, the Anna update will have new icons, a better browser, a new version of Ovi Maps, a portrait QWERTY keyboard, and "real" homescreen scrolling. Let's get back to the devices, shall we?

First up we'll talk about the Nokia E6 which is above. It's a portrait QWERTY keyboard packing handset and it's, obviously, their best one so far. It packs a 2.46-inch VGA (640 x 480 resolution) touchscreen display (326ppi), an 8MP camera with a dual-LED flash and 720p HD video recording, 8GB of storage, a microSD card slot, GPS, WiFi b/g/n support, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a 1,500mAh battery, and Symbian Anna. This one will be available in Q2 in black, silver, and white. I'd still rather wait for a Bold Touch but the choice is yours.

Next up is below and it's the Nokia X7 which has leaked many times before. This one packs a 4-inch AMOLED display, an 8MP camera with a dual-LED flash and 720p HD video recording, a microSD card slot, 1GB of ROM, Bluetooth 3.0 / WiFi b/g/n support, a 680MHz CPU, and Symbian Anna. This will also be available in Q2 for €380 ($547 USD) unlocked. They're both pretty interesting handsets, but I'm still waiting on their first Windows Phone 7 one.

3 UK may have just leaked some juicy information regarding some upcoming smartphones. Apparently, Samsung is prepping a Galaxy S2 Mini for the future and the launch is reportedly set for April on the carrier.

Moving along, it looks like the Symbian^3 based Nokia X7 - that won't be hitting AT&T anymore - will be headed to 3 UK this June, along with the LG Optimus 3D. In May you can expect the 7-inch HTC Flyer tablet and in June you'll be able to pick up a WiFi-only BlackBerry Playbook. Interesting stuff, I'm looking forward to them all!
