Nokia 6111: For the ladies


UPDATE: The Nokia 6111 is pegged with a suggested retail price of P17,800.00

It might be a case of mistaken identity, but the Nokia 6111 sure does resemble a certain Samsung slider phone we’ve all come to love. Nonetheless, when we received this tiny wonder in a huge brown envelope the other day, I immediately told Eva to assign this phone to a lady for review. Why? Coz it looks so damn elegant therefore unworthy to be in male hands.

Eva by the way is our assistant editor and the heart of m|ph operations. Without her, we would be clueless. (We’re actually clueless everyday. She constantly reminds us that we have work to do since we get distracted by the veeyooteeful toys in the office).

A quick rundown of the triband GSM phone’s features include a megapixel camera with 6x digital zoom (eww!) and flash. User memory is pegged at 21MB for storing photos, MP3 and AAC ringtones and video with up to 1 hour of recording. Note that the camera is oriented at landscape mode, which looks rather purty!

I assigned this little piece to a dear friend, heartthrob and fellow geek - Jed Quiambao (yes! yes! she’s Miriam’s gorgeous sister!), whom we are also featuring in the upcoming December issue of m|ph. Out sometime this week.

Abangan, fellow kababayans!

[…] I don’t hate it, because it’s actually kind of cool. M-PH pointed out that it seems to be a blatant rip-off of the Samsung D500, which isn’t pink. […]

Jed? Miriam’s sistah? huh? Qiambao pala maiden name ni Sen Santiago?(just kidding… love you Jed..)

anyways, the phone indeed is so Samsung x810-ish by the looks department.

as fragile and finesse as Jed, im sure this would be a remarkably emblem of subtlety and sublimity of women.

a queer comment from a straight guy like me….
