The Nokia 5250 emerged as a leaked entry-level smartphone and possible replacement to the Nokia 5230 has officially been launched by Nokia. This 2.8-inch touchscreen device comes at a bargain price and will also be offered with an Ovi Music Unlimited variant. Read on to find out all about the Nokia 5250 smartphone…
The Nokia 5250 is set to take the place of the Nokia 5230 as the budget users’ favourite touchscreen smartphone, as this Symbian S60 5th Edition device has officially been announced.
As the leaked images suggested, the Nokia 5250 takes its look more from the Nokia X6 than it does the Nokia 5800 with a slightly more angular look. With quite a wide bezel around the display, you’ll find the screen is a 2.8-inch display with 640 x 360 pixel resolution.
The Nokia 5250 comes with 512MB of internal memory, which means you’ll be able to fit all your favourite apps on-board, while the microSD slot allows you to add up to 16GB of storage, so you’ll easily be able to make the most of the Nokia 5250’s music centric features.
Making sure you get the most from the Nokia 5250, it seems Ovi Music Unlimited variants will be offered where the service is active, so here’s hoping for a UK version. There is also an FM Radio built-in for those who like to rock it old-school. Staying in touch with the music theme, Nokia will also be bundling a copy of Guitar Hero 5 Mobile with the Nokia 5250 so you can put your finger-picking dexterity to test on the touchscreen display.
You won’t find 3G packed in, offering GSM/GPRS and EDGE communications and what’s more the camera is a basic 2-Megapixel snapper. However, you will be able to make the most of the Ovi Store and all Ovi services on the Nokia 5250, including Ovi Mail, as well as social media sites Twitter and Facebook.
The Nokia 5250 will be launched before the end of the year and has a suggested price of around 115 Euros, which should place it firmly in the sub-£100 category. What do you think, fancy a slice of entry-level handheld? Let us know what you think of the Nokia 5250 in the Comments below.
