Nokia 6103 Mobile Phone Boasts the Latest in Bluetooth Technology2 June 2006
Nokia today announced the Canadian availability of the Nokia 6103 mobile phone, the must-have item for Canadians looking to stay connected, with the latest in Bluetooth technology. Building on the popularity of the Nokia 6101 phone, the new handset, available from Rogers Wireless, is a compact fold with a mid-range price point that adds the convenience of wireless Bluetooth connectivity and an upgraded modern design. It is Nokia's first phone that brings the popular Bluetooth feature into a mass market price tier. Canadians are encouraged to visit a Rogers Wireless location to experience the Nokia 6103 mobile phone's soft touch black cover - a combination of textured soft rubber that gives the handset a velvety luxurious feel.
"Rogers Wireless is Canada's leading wireless carrier and is committed to providing its customers with innovative mobile technology and services that meet their needs," says John Boynton, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Rogers Wireless. "As the exclusive Canadian carrier of the Nokia 6103 mobile phone, we once again offer our customers an exclusive product that combines many of the popular mobile features our customers want at an affordable price point - making it easier for Canadians to personalize their mobile experience."
Just in time for this year's soccer World Cup championships, the Nokia 6103 phone allows users to show their soccer-fever. Using downloaded MP3 tracks, like the tournament's team song, soccer fans can customize their phone's ringing and alert tones.
Designed for the discerning mobile phone user, the Nokia 6103 phone opens up a myriad of options to increase the productivity and convenience of their mobile experience using Bluetooth technology. For on-the-road productivity, the Nokia 6103 mobile phone is compatible with a number of Nokia wireless headsets including the BH-200. For at-home-convenience, Bluetooth allows users to communicate with a variety of their favourite electronic devices - whether it's printing the photos from last night's concert or sending a picture to a best friend's handset.
"Today's consumer is extremely demanding of their mobile phone - they are no longer willing to compromise style for functionality or vice versa - and they want it all at a reasonable price," said Jason Offet, Client Director, Nokia Canada. "The Nokia 6103 phone is a triple-threat that responds to this consumer demand with Bluetooth technology, unbelievable design features, and a very small price tag."
The Nokia 6103 handset also boasts a VGA camera and self portrait possibility. Using the external display to act as a viewfinder, the phone's user can take self portraits - alone or with friends - while the internal display lets them take traditional pictures. For those who prefer videos to still images, the Nokia 6103 phone has an integrated video recorder and player.
Exclusive to Nokia, the Xpress audio messaging service enables consumers to personalize messages in a creative and spontaneous way. The multimedia functionality allows users to send voice clips to any MMS-enabled GSM handset. Using a simple to navigate menu, an audio message can be recorded and sent with a few clicks of a button. Once an audio message has been received, it can be stored in the phone's memory, allowing the user to replay or share a congratulatory message or a funny joke with an endless number of friends and family.
The Nokia 6103 phone sells for $29.99 with a 3-year service agreement from Rogers Wireless and is available for purchase across Canada through Rogers Wireless dealers, and retail points of sale, or online at www.rogers.com. The Nokia BH-200 Wireless Headset retails for $79.95 and is available at The Source, Wireless Wave and at the Nokia Online Store at http://store.nokia.ca.
