While Nokia 6210 Navigator is a GPS-enabled phone with an integrated compass for drivers and pedestrian guidance, Nokia 6220 classic with its 5 megapixel camera, offers excellent imaging capabilities, navigation and advanced sharing features.

Launching the Nokia phones, Anil Mahajan, Head - Business Development, CGC, said:

"We have brought Nokia 6210 Navigator and Nokia 6220 classic for local users who love navigation, photography and music. Nokia 6210 Navigator offers the next generation in mobile navigation to a broad consumer base. I am sure, users in Qatar will be able to enjoy the benefits of navigation with a phone that not only navigates, but also communicates. Similarly, Nokia 6220 classic is an excellent full-featured phone, especially equipped for photography and video."


Nokia 6210 Navigator comes with Nokia Maps 2.0 and includes full voice and visual turn by turn guidance at no extra cost.

Combined with an 'accelerometer' which measures changes in direction and orientation, the built-in compass makes it easy to follow the map when strolling about on foot.

When turning the phone, the map automatically maintains its orientation.

The integrated Nokia Maps 2.0 application plots the quickest route to the desired destination and illustrates it on the map.

Car navigation is also simple with the pre-installed one-touch navigation, full voice guidance and self-mount car kit of the Nokia 6210 Navigator.

If the user makes a wrong turn, the device will automatically calculate a new route.
Nokia 6210 Navigator also supports assisted GPS (A-GPS), which enables the GPS receiver to acquire the satellites in just seconds.

The device is ready for use out of the box, even without a SIM-card.

Local maps are pre-loaded on the 1GB memory card of the Nokia 6210 Navigator and map updates are included in the sales price.

Nokia 6210 Navigator features a 3.2 megapixel camera, media player and stereo FM radio. Nokia 6210 Navigator is based on S60 software, allowing users to download and use thousands of new applications in addition to the ones already found on the device.

On the other hand, full-featured Nokia 6220 classic combines a 5 megapixel camera with A-GPS functionality to give new meaning to the phrase 'to share'.

With Nokia 6220 classic, high quality images and videos can be snapped, tagged, edited and shared online, phone-to-phone or even viewed on a television.

The highlight of the Nokia 6220 classic is its 5 megapixel camera with Xenon flash and Carl Zeiss optics - on par with many single purpose digital cameras available in the market.

With its high-speed HSDPA connection updating blogs or uploading photos and videos to favorite sharing sites like Share on Ovi or Flickr can be done right from Nokia 6220 classic.

A-GPS functionality allows photos to be 'geotagged' - making them easier to search and share. Images can also be viewed on a television screen with the integrated TV-out feature, sent from phone to phone via wireless Bluetooth connection, or viewed in full color on the phone's large 2.2 inch display.

Nokia 6220 classic comes loaded with the new Nokia Maps 2.0 application which helps consumers find the best routes or explore any city for new restaurants, hotels, tourist attractions and other points of interest.

The pre-loaded WidSets service brings web content directly to the device via mini-applications called widgets, providing quick and easy access to news updates, games and web communities.

Nokia 6220 classic also includes internet browser, email, music player, FM radio with RDS and up to 8 GB of memory.

In addition to its imaging capabilities, the Nokia 6220 classic enables Adaptive Multi Rate - Wideband speech coding technology, giving a more natural sound to human voice in phone calls.

It helps when having a conversation in a noisy environment such as in traffic or public place.
