Nokia Shade Review

Verizon Wireless and Nokia are to market the Nokia 2705 Shade, compact phone with clamshell opening was wonderful and very elegant. The terminal will be available in two versions, with 1.3 megapixel camera, or do not have this hardware. This is very simple phone for those who need only the essentials with great autonomy, especially as regards the version without camera modules. 

Here is short review about Nokia Shade and its main features:

The device in question will be available in two different versions, one with 1.3 megapixel camera and second one without camera.

As regards the other specifications, we are faced with simple product that encapsulates the functionality essential for cell phone today, like Bluetooth connectivity, microUSB input, Java support and good autonomy, especially in the version without the camera.

The new handset will be launched in the U.S. market starting from October 6 at price of only $ 30 with two-year contract. Still do not know in case it will land on other markets, so for now we leave the other technical characteristics have emerged.
