Rumors: Three New "Supernova" Handsets (7310, 7510, 7610)
Before Nokia officially releases any given cell phone, someone always has to drop it on a live Nokia site just long enough for a lucky blogger to get the scoop, and this time it's no different. Three new rumored phones are floating around the 'net today, thanks to a leak on Nokia Poland: the 7310, 7510, and 7610. All three will be part of a new collection of handsets called the Supernova line.
Starting from (probably) best to worst, or most interesting to least interesting:
Nokia 7610 Supernova. Series 40 quad-band slider with 3.2 megapixel camera, expandable memory, and a display that supports 16 million colors. GSMArena reports that this may just be the flagship phone of the collection, and it's definitely the most exciting of the bunch. Lots of nifty camera features abound, like VGA video recording at 30 fps and TV-out - impressive for an S40 device.
Nokia 7510 Supernova. Series 40 quad-band flip phone, also with a 16 million color internal display + monochrome external display. No camera features abound in this phone - it's a 2 megapixel shooter and that's about it. While it's no N90, the 7510 is heavier than the original N95 at 124 g.
Nokia 7310 Supernova. Series 40 tri-band candy bar. 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth with A2DP, and 3.5mm audio jack. Weighs 83 g. Overall a very lackluster phone.
There's no official release date or pricing for any of the three phones (although apparently the 7310 supernova was being sold for 145 euro online), but expect an announcement soon.
