Nokia 700 Zeta 1GHz Belle Handset spotted?

| June 28, 2011 | 51 Replies

Eclipsed by the Samsung iPhone

Yesterday Harangue posted a pic of the Nokia 600. We then posted info about upcoming symbian handsets with the new moniker to which some immediately bashed as fake and not something belonging here (despite that same story being everywhere else). Understandable. Note again that that information came way before the leaked handset photos, confirming at least in some way validity of that information. Whilst the screenshot of that detail was not official documentation, the information on it was certainly not baseless. It won’t be long before more leaks come out of the woodwork. One handset was shown yesterday, and another appears today.

GSM Arena have received pictures of another new Symbian device, the Nokia 700 (yesterday we saw 600).

The girl names may just be code names. What’s more interesting is that plain numbers affair all over again.

Here’s product info

The camera.

Cheers vali for the tip! (and arts and @MohamedYousri)

  1. Nokia 700 Zeta Shows Up On Film - All Phones | June 29, 2011
  1. Diogo says:

    I want belle on my N8! Its nice! :-)

  2. John says:

    I want Belle on my N8 as well !!!! but knowing Nokia it will probably not get it.

    Considering the leaked specs of the Belle devices all feature GHz’s processors, the N8 probably wont ge it.

    • arts. says:

      i wont be so pessimistic. =)

      i mean the widgets and the bottom bar is still there. Sure its now a ‘back’ icon and a ‘option’ icon, but the function and position is the same.

    • anonymous says:

      nokia says all symbian^3 devices will get belle, they also promised to release hardware upgraded phones thats why theres such a mobile like nokia 700…

    • Ninja says:

      > knowing Nokia it will probably not get it.

      Yes it will. It’s already been clearly stated multiple times you will get it. You can say you won’t get it as many times as you like, jump to Android, or whatever else you care to do.

      Meanwhile, plenty of people love their N8 just as it is and will enjoy both Anna and Belle, and subsequent updates, on their N8′s, when they come out.

      > Considering the leaked specs of the Belle devices all feature GHz’s processors

      This has NOTHING to do with a UI update. Seriously.

      • Harangue says:

        Those same kind of promises that were made during the lifespan of the N97?

        Not trying to slag Nokia or Symbian here, but eventhough something was stated/promised didn’t mean it actually got done. Anna isn’t even on current devices yet, so until then let’s not discuss Belle on current S3 sets.

      • Don says:

        I still remember all the times you told us we’d get the new browser soon. All the way back from last october (“in november”, “december”, “january”, etc etc etc)

        The point is Nokia can say whatever it wants, more often than not they change their mind on something.

        • Hypnopottamus says:

          He also said the N8 was perfect when it was released and anyone wanting an update was just a whiner.

          Ninja does write some good, well thought out things every once in a while, but it is this side of him where Symbian can do no wrong is what rubs me wrong.

      • John says:

        I said it in a of slight tongue and cheek way, I meant that Nokia have promised a lot and not delivered on most of it. I like Symbian I have no problem with it, yeah the UI can use a bit of work here and there.

        oh and BTW I use Nokia N8 :-D

  3. John says:

    BTW I actually the new names, they have to stay simple though 600, 700 is fine no 765,693 or it will completely ruin the point.

  4. arts. says:

    i rmbr in 5630 had the same weird gap between the screen.

    and i think there is no confirmation of it being autofocus unit or having 1ghz.

  5. Don says:

    Belle looks nice (need to see it in action of course).

    Nokia became king of the hill with a “plain numbers affair”, I don’t really see the problem with it. N8 etc is cool, but self-limiting, and then you’re up to the N8-01 etc which is just a more confusing version of “plain numbers”. I don’t want penis enhancement codenames either. It’s fine to say “this 3-2-10 rules” :)

  6. Prashant says:

    Hi jay You have leaked another very interesting device above in addition to Nokia – the Samsung iPhone ( see first pic) :-D

    • Jay Montano says:

      I’ll always refer to it as that. As you’ll know I’m no Apple fan but I can see why Apple’s pissed at Sammy.

      All my non-techy friends that see it think it’s an iPhone anyway. The whole design and icons scream iPhone. Samsung just kept pressing copy and paste. SGS? iPhone 3G. Galaxy Ace is an iPhone 4 clone.

  7. Keist says:

    Who told you guys that N8 won’t be getting Belle? The first Belle screenshots were even pictured on the N8.

  8. Alee says:

    1 Ghz and a fixed focus is still a fail.

    • Hypnopottamus says:

      As is the same laggy browser and the fact there is no mention of fixing the push email issue.

      • Don says:

        Ah but the browser is 7.4, Anna is only 7.3.

        Though it would have to be superb before I’d change from Opera.

        Email at least looks very nice on Anna, saw a demo of it, smaller more readable nicer text. Hope bugs are fixed too.

  9. Deep Space Bar says:

    DAMN NOKIA WHY DOES BELL LOOK LIKE FUCKING ANDROID/OS……they should have made the FONT new clear nokia for BELLE and not have that stupid flip clock shit everything else looks fine…..But i hope BELLE comes out soon

    • John says:

      They should use the UI from the Nokia N9, that would be nice

      • Deep Space Bar says:

        yea like the Notifications screen instead of Bubbles it looks too HTC like which is not good…..a lawsuit will be coming soon from HTC for sure …be aware of this

    • slayer says:

      Calm down, this is still under development. did you try the nokia pure font on your S^3 device? it still needs a few adjustments to work correctly under symbian.

      • deep space bar says:

        yea i have it makes my phone look so much better now and i also have the symbian next theme on with the anna icons so it looks like a new phone LOL but fuck it still runs like shit and it’s really annoying now

  10. bluechrism says:

    Nokia copying HTC Sense with the time there? Looks nice enough other than that. Shame there is no landscape pictures to show how it looks that way.

  11. Harangue says:

    @Jay

    Noteworthy might be: ‘The battery was a 1080mAh unit’

    ‘Hello Nokia?’
    ‘Really?’
    ’1080mAh in a Ghz unit?’

    And there goes Nokia/Symbian’s battery argument.

    • OSagnostic says:

      The C6-01 has a 1050mAh battery with the same screen size. A 1GHz processor does not run at max all the time, and each new version of the ARM processor are more efficient per clock cycle than previous versions.

      I would rather have a fatter phone with a larger battery (1500mAh) but the average phone buyer whats slim because they only try it for a short period of time.

  12. I get the feeling the N9 will be available before Belle is released for the N8. Hope I am wrong.

  13. slayer says:

    hope I wont regret getting the N8…

  14. Rex says:

    I just hope when it arrives on the N8 we won’t be getting a cheaper version of the firmware having some visual effects taken out of it just because of processor/hardware limitations.

  15. Seylan says:

    That screen is looking very sharp, just check how small the text looks on the homescreen pic…This confirms higher-resolution than nHD for the upcoming devices(finally)I’m guessing 854×480, because it it is higher than 640×360, and has 16:9 ratio.
    But that looks like a fixed focus camera! Gosh, didn’t they see the complaints us E7/C7/C6-01 and now E6/X7 users have given? Maybe for a budget phone, but PLEASE not for a device with a 1ghz processor.
    Everything else looks good so far, A worthy successor to the 5800.

  16. arifwap says:

    pic’s are capture by nokia n9

  17. nasse says:

    Previous post about those 1GHz Belle phones claimed that Zeta will be the thinnest smartphone ever. (Check one of the pics) Why doesn’t anybody get crazy about that?! :D

  18. micu says:

    what the.. 3.2 inch screen?it’s too small.. i think this phone for middle-end class..

  19. Stan says:
