Celebrating a Great Value Phone from Nokia by:Simon Drew

Mobile gadget consumers pinning for a feature-packed mobile phone don't have to search far

. The Nokia 6730 Classic has been released as a viable successor to Nokia's early line-up of popular mid-priced all-around smartphones such as the 6300.

Simple Elegance

The Nokia 6730 Classic won't be turning heads when you take it out to use. In a way, it's rather bland appeal won't make it attractive to thieves. But it has a subtle elegance with its slim candybar form that slips nicely in your pocket. Measuring just 112 x 46 x 12.6mm and weighing just 83g, it's one of the lightest and smallest smartphone out there.

Finally, GPS navigation that doesn't cost

GPS on a mid-priced candybar smartphone is something new. This feature is normally reserved to Nokia's higher-end E and N series smartphones. But with cost of applied technologies coming down, we can expect more of the same on budget mobile phones. So with the Nokia 6730 classic, getting lost can be a thing of the past for just about everyone. The handset features A-GPS with Nokia maps 2.0. With Vodafone as its exclusive carrier, you can expect Vodafone's turn-by-turn direction services to benefit drivers and pedestrians to get to their destination. Vodafone also allows access to its comprehensive database to help you get to where you're headed as well as its yellow page data.

The Nokia 6730 Classic is a great value for the mobile phone market looking for great high-end features for a song. Here are some that are sure to endear it to its intended markets.
