Leaked? Nokia 801 pics.

| November 19, 2011 | 67 Replies

Ooh new phone :D . Here’s something apparently for the China Market and called Nokia 801. It’s not the 801 N8 successor, just some Anna variant for TD-HSPA.

Oddly at the front there are no buttons. There isn’t even any room for buttons.. Where’s the Symbian menu button though?

The camera says 8MP, it has dual flash and a speaker grille. The metal in the middle curves perhaps to the front to that prominent bezel. Something about it makes me think about the N72.

Not sure it’s in keeping with the new Nokia design. Maybe it’s one of those things that look better in person?@ :S I hate that lumpy bezel thingy.

The side is a bit odd. The buttons are kinda small.

Cheers aikon171 for the tip!

    maybe it has no buttons because it comes with symbian belle and symbian belle doesnt requires buttons

    • N00-00 says:

      +1

      Looks like a new Belle device which should be announced soon..

    • Jay Montano says:

      Perhaps. Haven’t spent that much time with Belle – how does multitasking work without a menu button?

      • Aliqudsi says:

        it doensn’t

      • Shankey says:

        Swipe. Didn’t Elop say that Swipe will find its form in different Nokia products !

      • BABIS says:

        the menu button on belle is now down left on the screen (i am not talking about the left call-menu-right end feature)

        the new menu down left of the screen with long press it does not multitask (at least for now) …. but i guess with an update can bring the mutlitask option (if press and hold, that left down menu button)

        this is not too hard to be done with an update as are all ready some 3rd part apps doing this like tap2menu, go to menu

        unless this new 801 has carla build

        little off topic now (sorry about that)
        by the way my nokia 701 is mutlitasking 33 apps like a nokia N9 you have post before(hehehehehe)

        nokia N9 has got 1 mhz processor, 1 gb ram
        nokia 701 has got 1 mhz processor 512 ram
        i guess the little technical i know both can open about same apps because are 1 mhz processor but N9 should open tham faster in multitasking as 1 gb ram is double speed of the 701

      • Deep Space Bar says:

        you clearly haven’t lol they will implement a new way to multitask for with belle and swipe….the button and hold to ms needs just one button on belle but not sure how Carla and donna are gonna be applied

  2. N900-00 says:

    Nokia or Nokla???

  3. Aliqudsi says:

    I dunno, looks like a knockoff… lol and the pushed out Bezzel around the screen is stolen right off the N8…

  4. nathan says:

    i bet that the gap on the bottom of the screen is a bar button

  5. tholj says:

    the bottom looks weird with the glass that doesn’t come down to the bezel but you can see a separation.

  6. KF says:

    N8 successor will be a 9xx, no matter which OS it will run (symbian, wp, meego, or even s40 :p). As for this device, it have an X7-N8-touch in terms of design!

  7. qromodynmc says:

    It looks little ugly,
    Not better Than n8,or Far away from n9′s beauty..

  8. ddd says:

    bella need menu button like ios!

    how to background apps?

    anyway, i hope carla symbian remove the button and and use swipe/virtual menu button in working app(like nemo)

  9. doraemon22 says:

    may use touch button that will appear when the phone is switched on

  10. ddd says:

    if swipe come to symbian

    i may consider it over iphone after n9

  11. weirdfisher says:

    looks like an HTC Sensation putting on a mud pool

  12. DGui says:

    Symbian Anna :’(

  13. Brutus says:

    Ugly Nokia N8 replica….

  14. FireDragon says:

    I am GLAD this thing is for China. There are somethings about the design of this handset that I like but there are many things that I don’t like at all, in design.

    I do multi-tasking without the menu button. It is through menu Option before that Menu App. But yes agree there are many cases that doesn’t work and one need the menu.

  15. Terminal Mix says:

    Dual Led??!?!?!
    8 mp?!?!

    How can’t it be a “successor”.

    Won’t buy it =/

    • Jay Montano says:

      There were many rumours that something called a 801 would be the N8 successor (then N8-01). Clearly this isn’t that.

  16. nabs says:

    Yeah, it looks like it’s from China.

  17. RollerTroller says:

    Display looks CBD amoled and camera looks 8mp edof….so yeah a belle device!

  18. aikon171 says:

    801T != 801
    801T != N8 successor

  19. sake_tsu says:

    looks not appealing or even UGLY, looks cheap and fake
    whats the point of giving such an ugly duck to the world after nokia n9 and lumia 800? would anyone be chaaptered?

    • Chen Zhe says:

      Calm down, TENAA to China is as of FCC to USA, they won’t do fake pictures. AND, they are just famous by taking UGLY photos, no matter how awesome real phones look like. If you are interested, you can search their picture for phones such as N8, iPhone4 and Moto Razr

  20. AlOnE89 says:

    calm down mates, this might be the China-only-device, just like T7-00 which created and launched only for China market

  21. bizz says:

    Agree w aikon171

    N8 -> T7-00 (China only version, camera spec cut down)
    E6 -> 702T (China only)
    X7 -> this 801T (China only)

  22. The design looks too outdated/cheap/poor to be a serious device. I might even think its a Nokla.

  23. Arts says:

    honestly this looks like rubbish. something that cheap knock off compnaies would make.

  24. Deep Space Bar says:

    a successors don’t have shitty camera they have everything better

    N95 – N95 8gb
    N93 -N93i
    N85 – N86
