Fresh from giving us the Nokia N8 in pink, Nokia has now released a special edition Nokia E7 in blue, complete with seven premium apps on board as a special bonus. Join us after the cut for more details.

The Nokia E7 is easy enough to look at as it is, but we reckon it's particularly attractive in blue. And it's all the more attractive when it comes with some extra goodies not available with the dark grey, silver white, green or orange colour options.

We're not talking throwaway free apps here, either – the selection includes some of the top HD games out there right now. The full complement includes Advanced Call Manager, Monopoly Classic HD, Tetris HD, Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. HD, Galaxy on Fire, Asphalt 5 HD and Hero of Sparta HD.

That's a whole lot of gaming goodness to keep you going right out of the box, and of course that's all on top of the Nokia E7's superb business phone credentials.

The Nokia E7 comes with a 4in Super AMOLED screen, full slide-out QWERTY keyboard and an 8-Megapixel camera, plus a host of business-friendly features.

So if you want to pick up a handset that not only leads the way for the business user but also comes packing some top-notch games as an added bonus, blue is the colour for you and you can pick up the Nokia E7 blue directly from Nokia Online right now. You can pick it up SIM free for £499 (inc. VAT), so you can use it with the service provider of your choice.
