Nokia 6212 Classic is not the first NFC-capable (Near Field Communication) phone from the manufacturer, but it's the first to use the technology for multimedia purposes besides payments. The newcomer, thanks to NFC, can send and receive data like sounds, music, pictures and video. The phone ships with three "NFC Tags", in which calendar entries or settings can be stored, and touching one of these NFC Tags opens the phone's user manual. NFC can also be used for headset pairing, and two NFC-capable phones can interchange data with a single touch.
The GPRS-, EDGE- and 3G-enabled handset has a 2" display with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels and 16 million colors, stereo FM radio, 2 megapixel camera with LED flash and a secondary VGA camera. Just like all recently announced phones, Nokia 6212 Classic is capable of recording videos at a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels, even though speed is limited to 15 frames/second. The videos can be stored on the phone's 22 MB large internal memory, or on a microSD card with a maximum supported capacity of 4 GB. The handset is 114.7 x 47.1 x 14.5 mm large, weighs 88 grams, has a 1000 mAh battery and is expected to become available in Q3 2008 at a net price of 200 EUR.
