The Nokia C3-00 is a compact QWERTY phone, design wise much like the E72 and E71. It comes with a 2.4″ screen, microSD card with support for up to 8GB, WiFi b/g, 3.5mm audio jack, 2MP camera and a heavy integration of social media in Symbian S40.
Here’s a set of images of the Samsung Galaxy S that was released nearly two weeks ago. The Galaxy S is currently the best Android device out there.

Renesas Electronics Corporation, a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, and Nokia Corporation, the world leader in mobile communications, today announced that they are deepening their collaboration by forming a strategic business alliance to develop modem technologies for HSPA+/LTE (Evolved High-Speed Packet Access / Long-Term Evolution) and its evolution.
As part of this alliance, the companies have entered into an agreement whereby Renesas Electronics is to acquire Nokia’s wireless modem business for approximately USD 200 million. The alliance is planned to be enhanced by long-term joint research cooperation on future radio technologies.
An interesting Samsung device leaked today, or at least a render of what is told to be the Galaxy S2. If you believe the rumor, this phone will be a little powerhouse.
Samsung Galaxy S2 rumored specs:
4.3” 1280x720px Super AMOLED 2 display
2GHz CPU, 1GB RAM/4GB ROM
32GB of built-in flash memory, +32GB microSD card slot
8 mpx camera with FullHD video recording
A-GPS, Bluetooth 3.0, Wi-Fi b/g/n
3.5mm audiojack
accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity and ambient light sensors
Take this information with a huge grain of salt. There are many things that sound off: Super AMOLED 2 with a resolution of 1280×720, 2GHz CPU (maybe dual-core 1GHz?) and FullHD video recording. I’m especially skeptic about the resolution of the screen, and the supposed FullHD video recording.
