Nokia 6255 (CDMA)
(Review)
 
Nokia 6255 is one of the most advance CDMA handset available in the Indian market. Unlike most other Nokia phones, It is a clamshell phone and possess almost all advanced features.  
Dual screens, a powerful camera with flash and digital zoom, MMC memory card support,  Video recorder & player, video and audio streaming, an MP3/AAC music player and FM radio are among the features that make 6255 a smart phone that CDMA subscribers were really longing for.  

FM radio is a very popular feature with Indians, as we are fond of listening to music.The built-in MP3/AAC player allows users to store 1 to 2 hours of music on MMC card. 

The built-in VGA camera with flash and digital zoom can capture quality images, video clips with audio, which can be sent directly from the handset. The resolution is 640x480 pixels.  
Users can store pictures, video, and music on a MMC card with 64MB capacity.    

Nokia 6255 is one of the first CDMA handsets to support Bluetooth, enabling users to communicate directly with other Bluetooth enabled devices and use Bluetooth headsets.

 
This phone has an enlarged main display 128 x 160 pixels and in addition an external 4K color screen which is rare on any Nokia phones. Another good feature is that you can answer the phone directly by pressing a button on speaker without opening the flap.
Battery management is also good as it disallows features that consume more battery if the battery is low. May be one of the rare phones in the country that supports real time TV streaming.

Price: approx. Rs.12,500/-
