Nokia have taken the wraps of three new, middle of the range cell phones, namely the N2700 Classic, N6303 Classic and N6700 Classic, which serve to build on the success of the N6300 and which will, Nokia hopes, prove somewhat more successful in galvanising consumer interest than the N6301 and N6300i – neither of which proved quite as popular as Nokia would have hoped.

Boasting HSPA-based 3G connectivity which, Nokia claim, results in data transfer speeds up to 10Mbps, the N6700 Classic which is the higher specified of the newly announced trio of Classic handsets, comes with a 2.2″ 320 x 240 resolution display with Ambient Light Sensor technology, a 5 megapixel, 4x digital zoom autofocus camera with LED flash capable of recording video at 640 x 480 resolution at 15fps (or 352 x 288 at 30fps), and quad-band GSM/EDGE and 3G capabilities (3G reserved for Europe).

Positioned in the middle of the new handsets, the N6303 Classic comes with a similarly specified display as the N6700, as well as a 3.2 megapixel 8x digital zoom autofocus camera with LED flash, a 3.5mm headphone socket to compliment its DAP capabilities – with Share on Ovi on offer – and offers MP3, AAC, MP4, AAC+, enhanced AAC+, H.263, H.264 file format support. It also has an integrated FM tuner offering RDS support.

The N2700 Classic, as you’d expect, offer rather lesser specifications with a rudimentary 2 megapixel 4x digital zoom camera sans flash, a smaller 2″ 320 x 240 display though it does come with DAP functionality (again with Share on Ovi support) and an integrated FM tuner with RDS.
All three handsets are expected to commence shipping in Q2 with the N6700 Classic retailing for around $309, the N6303 for $178 and the N2700 for around $86.
