The Dual Camera Phone!

The much awaited 6680 has been out in the market for a few weeks now but sales have been low and its not doing well in the market. Personally, the phone failed to impress me not technically but in looks.


The key features in simple words are:




  • Two integrated digital cameras: 1.3 megapixel and VGA which means reasonably good qualiy pictures to be printed.




  • Experience two-way video calls and see face-to-face as you talk in real time which is made possible by the two cameras.




  • Video sharing capability




  • High-resolution, 262, 144-color display - means a better and more colourful screen.




  • Nokia XpressPrint printing solution: PictBridge, Bluetooth wireless technology,   MultiMediaCard (MMC) which enables easy printing of pictures and transfer of pictures, videos etc to other computers or mobile phones.




  • Fast WCDMA and EDGE connections for broadband-speed browsing plus tri-band   which simply means better and faster internet access.






GSM phone with global roaming capability so you can continue to use it all over the world.




  • Convenient email access with automatic download to send images and view documents




  • Calendar, contacts, and other personal information management features plus data printing




  • Music player with stereo audio thus providing very good qualiy so your phone works as a portable mp3 player because you can also store audio tracks on the phone.






It shares most of its features with the 6630 except two digital cameras which are an un-neccessary accessory. However, the camera in front may be useful for 3G [video caling] which I dont know if it has been introduced in India or not. It also has a reasonably good flash light for taking pictures which was missing in most Nokias prior to this.


No doubt it is an Imaging smartphone as described by Nokia, but it does lack the looks and visual appeal just like its predecessors 6600 and 6630 phones.


I am not too sure about sales in India, but all over Europe, both 6630 as well as 6680 have failed to sell well, 6630 which was earlier priced at almost 800euros is down to 200euros with 80euros of call credit in it, so the phone costs just 120euros which is just 6000 rupees.


Similarly 6680 costs 300 euros with talk time worth 80euros.


In my personal opinion, its a great phone but it’d have been even better if it looked good like the 7610 or something:D
