I know this may not be so new to people from Europe but this will definitely be something new to people in the United States, though the two countries may not really be having the same name for this mobile phone but it’s one and the same. Nokia will be launching their Nokia 5230 in the US and baptizing it with a new name!

United States will have Nokia Nuron instead of Nokia 5230 which is the same phone! Actually there is no difference, just in case you are wondering why Nokia has to give 5230 a new name when it has to step on a new land, I guess that is just the way it is. Remember when other brand of phones changes the name of their phones whenever they release it to another country? Oh well maybe it’s really a practice for mobile phones manufacturers.

I would have to say that this phone is definitely Nokia 5800’s successor, the features are all the same and so is the looks(though the camera is downgraded to 2mp compared to the 3.15mp of 5800). Nokia Nuron will be available in the USA courtesy of T-mobile and will be officially out this March 17 and though we don’t have any information about the real price of this phone we are assuming that T-Mobile will cut half of the price under their contract from the $200 retail in Europe.

Nokia Nuron will possess the classic Touchscreen feature that will weigh 113 grams and a screen that will flaunts 3.2 inch display. You can expect Nuron to have the same program and dedicated keys that has been Nokia phones trademark. Nuron will be available in five shades; White, Red, Pink, Yellow and Blue Green.
