Nokia's new fashion lineup features angled cuts and some intriguing features.

The Nokia 7900 cannot be dismissed as a feature-less fashion phone. In fact, we find the sharp, angled lines on the phone's stamped shell to be much less interesting than the 16-million color OLED display, or the 1GB of internal storage space. For the style conscious, the phone offers pulsing lights in almost 50 shades, which change the color of LEDs under the keyboard and around the phone. The Nokia 7900 is also a dual-band 3G phone (Europe-only, we presume), and a quad-band GSM phone, so importers may have some luck, at least for calling.

The Nokia 7500 tones things down a bit. Instead of 49 shades of LED to choose from, buyers can choose interchangeable color plates to decorate the phone. The phone retains the 2-megapixel camera on the 7900, but loses some of the etched styling accents. No internal storage, either, though the phone will accept 2GB microSD cards.

Both phones will be available in Europe in the third quarter of 2007. The Nokia 7900 will cost €400, and the Nokia 7500 will cost €210.
