Just announced: Nokia 7705 brings a light ring and a new twist to messaging.
It’s existance has been rumoured since April. It had been cloned before being officially announced.
Yesterday we saw some actual photos .
Today, Nokia has officially announced their latest messaging centric device.
The Nokia 7705 Twist
It’s mid tier, and normally doesn’t get my attention – but has got a quirky design and this new “light ring” feature. Supposedly that circle at the bottom right lights up so that it
“can be customized to identify a message or a call from those listed in the contact directory.”
The design is unconventional like the Nokia Surge, but it actually looks kinda nice, albeit having something rather feminine about it. (It’s petiteness, the swivelling, and that mirror….and the purple back – though I think it comes in black too.)

Also worth mentioning is the Nokia 7705 Twist’s charity connections.
