Mobile Bulgaria managed to grab a picture from a local retailer showing an image of what they claim to be the Nokia C6-01. What’s special about this image is that the device in question runs Symbian^3.
We’ve previously heard that the C6-01 will have a better camera compared to the C6-00. The C6-01 will have an 8MP camera with dual LED flash, instead of the 5MP and single LED flash seen on the C6-00.
This image doesn’t of course confirm anything, but it would make sense to include Symbian^3 and make this device even more juicy.
