The Antithesis Of :

Nokia 5500

Symbian outdoor phone. The Nokia 5500 Sport is a gadget-laden smartphone designed for outdoor and sports use. The 5500 Sport is designed to be tough and hardwearing.

By adopting a Symbian platform for the 5500, Nokia have been able to pack in a whole load of features that really are useful. And it's the lightest, most compact Symbian phone around!

Nokia 3720 Classic

Nokia has officially announced the 3720 Classic. It is waterproof, dustproof and shock resistant. The 3720 is made of very durable materials and the interior is sealed tight so nothing can interfere with the electronics inside. The phone will come with less than remarkable features like a 2.2-inch display, a 2-megapixel camera, a 1GB microSD card, preloaded Nokia Maps, a long-lasting battery and a LED flashlight. But then again this phone is made to withstand outrageous conditions so smartphone-like features will not be found in the 3720 Classic.
