It's about time: Nokia 6300i

The truly iconic Nokia 6300, one of the company's bestsellers as well as top revenue generators of 2007, has been overwhelmingly popular especially in Europe and Asia Pacific regions due to its streamlined, sleek, and 13.1 mm at thickest point slim design, yet packed with up-to-date features like 16 million color QVGA display, 2 megapixel camera, EDGE, Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR, music player, and FM radio. It is estimated that over 20 million 6300's have been sold since January last year.

One year has passed...it's time for Nokia 6300 to be refreshed with enhanced features that should make one already decent phone even better and better.

Now let me introduce you its successor which still retains what have impressed you since the time of the Nokia 6300, the new Nokia 6300i...
