The Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM - Capture, Share and Play
Espoo, Finland - Nokia today unveiled two new ultra-affordable camera phones:
the Nokia 108 and the Nokia 108 Dual SIM. Perfect for people purchasing their
first-ever camera phone, the new handsets offer more than just calls and texts.
The Nokia 108 also lets people take pictures and record video, helping them
capture life's important moments with an attractively-priced device. With
Nokia's Slam technology on board, content can be shared faster and more easily
with friends and family via Bluetooth. Support for up to 32GB of external memory
ensures there's plenty of space to store people's most cherished content.
The Nokia 108 delivers new mobile experiences without the huge price tag. In
addition to a built-in VGA camera, the Nokia 108 also features an integrated MP3
player, FM radio, Snake the game, multiple alarms and flashlight for staying
entertained and productive while on-the-go. With exceptional battery life of up
to 31 days' standby when using the single SIM Nokia 108, people will also be
able to enjoy the phone for longer.
The Nokia 108 extends the Nokia design story with its softly rounded corners and
raised island keys, making it a pleasure to use. Available in Nokia's signature
red, white, black, yellow and cyan, the colorful back covers are also removable.
Made with Nokia's renowned quality and attention to detail, the Nokia 108 gives
people an outstanding introduction to mobile technology at a great price, and
makes staying in touch with friends and family more fun and enjoyable.
"We continue to connect millions of people, including those for whom mobile
phone ownership was previously out of reach," said Timo Toikkanen, executive
vice president, Mobile Phones, Nokia. "There remains a huge segment of the
global population that has yet to own a camera phone. For the next billion
people and beyond, we aim to bring new mobile experiences to ever-lower price
points, and the Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM are great examples of this
commitment."
Great value as a first mobile or back-up phone
The Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM are great value, beautifully designed
handsets for calls, texts and on-the-go entertainment including photos, Snake,
music and video. With expandable storage of up to 32GB, people can store
thousands of images, music tracks and hundreds of videos. With standby time of
up to 31 days for the Nokia 108 and up to 25 days for the Nokia 108 Dual SIM,
they also make for highly reliable back-up phones for occasional or emergency
use. The Dual SIM variant enables people to select which SIM card to use when
making a call or sending a text message, helping them manage costs and maintain
network coverage on-the-go, without the need to use several phones.
The Nokia 108 and Nokia 108 Dual SIM have a recommended retail price of just 29
USD, excluding taxes and subsidies. Available colors include red, white and
black at launch, with yellow and cyan to follow. The Nokia 108 and the Nokia
