The Nokia 600 was an announced but unreleased touchscreen-based smartphone developed by Nokia. It was announced in August 2011 as one of three launch devices for the Symbian Belle operating system. The Nokia 600 was designed as a music-centric phone and would have been equipped with a 106-phon loudspeaker, which Nokia claimed was the loudest it had ever installed in a product.[1]
It would have been available in Black, White, Pink and Lime. However, the phone was cancelled by Nokia in November 2011.[2]
Features
The device would have featured a 3.2" nHD (640x360 px) display and 5 megapixel camera with flash, 720p video recording and 2x digital zoom. It would have offered 2 GB of memory, expandable to 32 GB via microSD card, and a 1GHz processor.
It would also have featured HSPA (3.5G) network connectivity alongside Bluetooth 3.0, GPS, and NFC.[3]
Music and radio
The device was designed primarily for music. The included loudspeaker, according to Nokia, would have made the Nokia 600, as the 'loudest' phone, it had ever produced.[1] The phone was also to have included FM radio functionality with a built-in antenna, meaning that a set of wired headphones would not have been required for the FM radio to function.[4]
Software
The Nokia 600 would have been one of three launch devices for the 'Belle' update of Nokia's Symbian operating system,[1] which would prove to be the final update for the platform before Nokia switched to Microsoft's Windows Phone software.
