Nokia has announced the release of the Nokia 603 – a colourful and affordable, NFC-equipped handset designed with the first time smartphone user in mind. Packing style and cutting-edge features, the eye-catching Symbian Belle-powered 603 will be available in the UK in time for Christmas.
Symbian Belle vs Symbian Anna: How they differ
Combining an attractive design, an affordable price tag and a great range of consumer features, the Nokia 603 has been built to appeal to those that are either upgrading from an older smartphone, or have never owned one before.
With its durable 3.5-inch scratch-resistant display and compact chassis, the 603 aims to be as tough as it is comfortable to carry. And with Nokia’s ClearBlack screen technology, the vivid touchscreen promises to be easy to view, even in direct sunlight.
Featuring a 1GHz processor, high-speed graphics and the latest Symbian Belle operating system, the Nokia 603 delivers cutting-edge power and usability, to make it quick, easy to operate and accessible to all, regardless of whether you’ve ever used a smartphone before.
Offering a range of preloaded maps, social networking tools, games, and the ability to easily capture and edit photographs and then share them with friends, the 603 manages to pack everything you need into its compact chassis, making it the perfect portable partner.
And with its cutting-edge Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, you can even wirelessly connect and synchronise the Nokia 603 with other smartphones and external devices easier than ever before, making it a great handset for sharing photos, videos and music with friends.

Packing everything the first-time smartphone user could possibly need, the Nokia 603 is set to cost around £200 and will be available in the run up to Christmas, making it a great gift idea for the holiday season. Why not let us know your thoughts in the Comments section below?
