Nokia has unveiled its latest premium mobile phone, the Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition. Its key feature is a thumbprint, which is designed to match the human hand. Plus the soundtrack of the Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition was composed by the avant-garde musical pioneer Brian Eno, considered the "father of ambient music."
Other design features include its striking organic shape, a concept further implied by stainless steel polished surfaces and a scratch-resistant glass display window. Like its namesake, the Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition consists of two variants - light and dark, the light inspired by the hot, dry air mass, the dark by the cooler, humid one.
Feature wise it includes a 262,000 colour display, a slide mechanism which reveals its 2 mega-pixel camera and comes coupled with extended battery life.
The Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition also features a complementary Bluetooth headset. This diminutive but distinctive wireless earpiece is also composed of stainless steel, and is designed to match the nature-inspired Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition.
The Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition is now available in select markets, with an estimated retail price of EUR 1000, before taxes or subsidies.
Technical highlights:
- Exclusive sounds in AAC quality, made by Brian Eno
- Premium User Interface - Look and feel
- 2 Mpx Camera
- High quality stainless steel metal covers for superior durability
