Don’t be fooled into thinking this review is about an old, old Nokia from back in the year 2000.

Yes, the 6210 was an incredibly popular phone, especially with the business user.

However, Nokia (who are not averse to recycling model numbers) have now launched the 6210 Navigator. A handset far removed from the 6210. The 6210 Navigator is a sliding handset, with full colour screen and built in GPS.

Available in glossy red or black the handset sits comfortably in your hand and the design and quality of finish are eye catching.

Using Nokia Maps application the users receives 6 months free GPS navigation, so unlike stand-alone sat nav systems you have to face an ongoing cost. However, the upside is convenience, and downloading maps in the future will be free so no upgrading charge.

The overhead maps are decent enough, and appear well on the large screen. There is a handy compass which works particularly well in pedestrian mode.

The camera is a decent 3.2MP with LED flash and VGA resolution video capture.

There is built in FM radio and other multi media functions, thanks to the fact it is another Nokia which uses Symbian operating system Series 60.

If you like surfing the net or using your handset to email you will not be disappointed as the phone supports HSDPA speeds up to 3.6Mbps. As an S60 phone you can push email, run business applications and add excellent games.

All in all the new 6210 Navigator is more than a GPS phone. It has a wealth of features and is sure to prove a popular purchase in the coming months.

One to consider!
