Encased in a slim, stainless steel body, the Nokia 8801 subtly glides open to reveal a number of distinctive details, each meticulously considered and researched to complement the prestige and quality of the device. To heighten the experience, the Nokia 8801 features exclusive audio accompaniment, including all ring tones and alerts by award-winning composer Ryuichi Sakamoto. This attention to detail continues Nokia's heritage of premium mobile phones that have set the industry standard for elegance and performance.
The 'pop-up' mechanism of the Nokia 8801 is another study in functional design. Using a bi-stable spring mechanism and stainless steel ball bearings, like those used in high-performance automobiles, the keypad of the Nokia 8801 gracefully glides from its protective casing, revealing a hidden camera on the back.
The Nokia 8801’s spectacular features include integrated speakerphone for multitasking, even while chatting, messaging options, a stunning 265k color TFT display, integrated SVGA camera and video with image quality up to 600 x 800 pixels, high-speed data and video via EDGE and GPRS (GPRS may not be available on all networks) and XHTML browsing for a richer mobile Internet experience.
