Nokia Shows 6300i with Wifi and Nokia Maps

Snapshot by Ricky Cadden on Wednesday March 26, 2008.

It appears that Nokia has inadvertently published some information about a new handset, the 6300i, before the official announcement. The Nokia 6300i is a new version of the wildly popular 6300, and now offers WiFi support. WiFi can be used to make inexpensive voice over IP (VoIP) calls with the 6300i. The handset also sports tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900MHz) and a 2 megapixel camera with digital zoom.

The Nokia 6300i also appears to come with Nokia Maps preinstalled, which, if true, would make this the first S40 handset from Nokia to support Nokia Maps. A 512MB microSD card is listed as having map data preloaded, even though the 6300i does not appear to have GPS support built-in. The 6300i also features a 2.5mm audio jack and FM radio receiver. The Opera Mini web browser will come preinstalled, making it convenient to browse any website right on the phone's 2.0" QVGA display.

No pricing or availability has been announced yet for the Nokia 6300i.
