The Nokia 5250 will cost a bit over a 100 euro - it's not in that much demand 100 euro smartphone but it comes almost close to it.
It has a rather self-effacing specs sheet - it runs Symbian^1 on a 2.8" TFT screen with nHD resolution and relies on quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE for data connectivity. The Nokia 5250 sports a 2MP camera on the back of its 104 x 49 x 14 mm body. The battery is quoted at 18 days of standby, 7 hours of talk time and 24 hours of music playback. There's no 3G or GPS connectivity and no Wi-Fi. It's simply a more compact version of Nokia 5233.
Honestly, that limits its smartphone possible a bit and it will probably have to fight quite a bunch of touch feature phones for a place under the sun but it will surely go mass market, that's for sure. This phone will cost 115 euro before taxes and subsidies and it's expected to start selling in Q4 this year. Oh, and it will come with Guitar Hero 5 Mobile for what it's worth.
