Nokia launches 8800 Carbon Arte, a feature-rich mobile phone


The latest premium mobile phone to be launched by Nokia is the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte. A novel mobile phone, the device is a unique combination of the timeless design of the Nokia 8800 Arte range with materials that reflect a new exclusivity based on refinement and authenticity. The Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte is distinctively fabricated from carbon fibre, titanium, polished glass and stainless steel.

The handset encompasses 3D patterns that display the inherent performance and lustre of carbon fibre. Making the phone high-tech and sultry, the carbon fibre is an extremely light and strong material in a woven pattern. The unique tones, textures and sculpted shapes that the carbon fibre and titanium deliver give the device a modern feel.

Keeping to the signature of the Nokia 8800 Arte range, the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte is carefully designed with a slide mechanism along with minimalistic and seamless surfaces. Enriching the premium value and quality of the phone are soundtracks and wallpapers created exclusively for the range. The display sports a unique appearance because of organically changing background images. Turning the device over, screen-side down activates the turn-to-mute silencing mechanism that allows individuals to silence incoming calls in a discrete manner.

The Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte boasts of some great features like 3G capabilities, 3.2 megapixel auto focus camera, high quality audio and a stunning OLED display with built-in memory that has been expanded from previous offerings in the range to 4 GB. The phone additionally marries timeless style with superb functionality with its distinct tap-for-time feature. The function lets users tap the steel surface below the display twice to reveal a clock on the screen.

The Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte is exclusively accessorized with a Bluetooth touch-sensitive volume control headset, a stylish desk stand and a beautiful leather carrying case.

The phone will undoubtedly appeal those who love uncompromised high performance. At an estimated retail price of EUR 1,100 exclusive of subsidies and taxes, the Nokia 8800 Carbon Arte should be available in Q3 of 2008.
