Nokia drags more Comes With Music handsets out for Singapore launch
Slowly but surely, Nokia's Comes With Music is checking off locales on its tour around the world. Next up is Singapore, and rather than sticking to the same selection of CwM-equipped handsets as we've seen thus far, it'll be tossing in the lower-end 5320 XpressMusic and 5220 XpressMusic alongside the 5800, N96, N95 and N79. When the service and handsets launch in "the coming weeks," it'll mark the first nation in Asia to take part in Nokia's fun little all-you-can-digest music initiative. For those keeping score, this will make Singapore the first country on the planet to have access to a CwM 5800, though there's no word on how costly any of the previously mentioned mobiles will be. Patience, friends -- it's all we can count on these days.
Nokia adds trio of recent models to N-Gage compatibility list
If you've been desperately seeking some Snakes Subsonic gaming partners on that N82 of yours, your pool of potential playmates just got a little (emphasis on "little") wider. The N78, N96, and XpressMusic 5320 have now been added into the N-Gage client compatibility mix -- though of the three, the N78 is the only one that's really widely available at this point. The 5320's just now starting to trickle into distribution around the world, and if you happen to end up playing System Rush with an N96 owner in the next few weeks... well, you're playing with a very special individual, indeed.[Via All About Symbian]
FCC meets, greets NAM version of Nokia's XpressMusic 5320
A non-Nseries S60 Nokia with HSDPA 850 / 1900 -- now there's a novel concept. The XpressMusic 5320 isn't quite as funky looking as its good buddy, the 5220, but we'll take what we can get (and really, there's still a touch of funkiness going on in that crazy keypad there anyway). Nokia has actually only announced this version for Latin America at this point, but what do you wanna bet a heaping handful of 'em make it up to the more northerly regions of the hemisphere?
Forum Nokia spills official 5320 XpressMusic specs
Those hankering for an exhaustive rundown of the just-announced 5320 XpressMusic's specifications need not conduct their search any further. Forum Nokia, Espoo's developer outreach branch, has gone ahead and done the dirty work of dredging up the details and plopping 'em all in one place, revealing roughly 85MB of usable memory on startup (a key stat, as any heavy Symbian user can attest) atop S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2. The lack of HSDPA 850 / 1900 (or a separate version of the phone rocking those bands) still stings to read -- like, physically causes our eyes to burn -- but hey, what can you do? Wait for the N78, that's what.[Via All About Symbian]
Nokia outs HSDPA 5320 and 5220 XpressMusic candybars, wake us when it's the Tube
While we patiently wait for Nokia's current, "no major new products" fiscal quarter to expire, we'll have to trudge through releases like these 5320 (left) and 5220 (your other left) candybars. As members of the XpressMusic range the devices themselves are fine. Unfortunately, fine isn't going to win back that 1% lost market share. The 3G HSDPA 5320 (€220 / $351) features dedicated music and N-Gage gaming keys, a 3.5-mm headphone jack, up to 24-hours of play time, up to 8GB of expandable storage, and a "Say and Play" voice controlled playlist; speak the name of the artist or song you want and the phone will play it. The (€160 / $255) 5220 removes the HSDPA but adds a lanyard... hoorah!? Expect both to land in Europe sometime in Q3 2008.
