The Nokia 6260 slide comes with a 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens and LED flash, WiFi, 3G/HSDPA connectivity, and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP. It also comes with GPS with A-GPS making the 6260 slide the first S40-based phone to come with such a feature. Moreover, it has TV-out functionality, stereo speakers and comes with 200MB internal memory and supports microSD card technology for additional storage.

Also, 6260 is the Nokia’s first cellphone with support for fast download (HSDPA) and upload (HSUPA) speeds at up to 10.2M bits per second and 2Mbps respectively. Users will be able to take advantage of the higher speeds when uploading images and videos to Web sites. So far Nokia phone users have been limited to download speeds of 3.6M bps and upload speeds of 384K bps.

6260’s homescreen offers quick access to search engines and points of interest while the new 360° navi-key allows a great mobile Internet experience
