Noida, Delhi -- (SBWire) -- 09/09/2011 --Nokia will launch three new smartphones — Nokia 600, 700 and 701 — running Symbian Belle by September-end in India.

Nokia 600

The new Nokia 600 is said to be among the loudest smartphones from Nokia, rated at 106 phon for loudness. Since it comes with an FM transmitter and an FM receiver, you don't need earphones to listen to your favourite radio station.

Nokia 600 also has a Near Field Communication chip that can be used with emerging NFC apps and accessories such as Nokia Play 360 speakers. NFC-enabled versions of Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja games will come pre-loaded on the device.

NFC is a short range wireless communication technology which allows communication between two devices that are at a distance of up to 20 cm apart. Thus, NFC enabled devices can be used for making mobile payments, for mobile ticketing, and as keys for accessing cars, homes or hotel rooms.
