Hands-on with the Nokia 6220 classic 5 MP camera phoneBy Philip Berne, 12 February 2008
The Nokia 6220 classic phone is anything but a throwback. This 5-megapixel cameraphone has some bona fide snapshot potential. Check out our hands-on pics.

Nokia 6220 classic Don't let the name fool you, there's nothing Classic about this phone except its old school Nokia look. Otherwise, the feature list looks straight out of the N-series device family. We were impressed by the demo we saw of the Flickr uploading, but the GPS geotagging is what sold us. Our rep showed us 4 by 6 prints made from shots with the 5-megapixel camera, and they looked great, like we would expect from a regular point-and-shoot. Nokia needs to bring this phone to the U.S., with the right price after subsidies ($100, let's say?), and it's sure to be a winner. Release: July 2008. Price: $350.
Pros: 5-megapixel camera takes nice pics, uploads directly to Flickr with geotagging. Lots of new stuff packed into this
Cons: Old school look isn't for everyone. Symbian OS may be more than most people need.
