Recently Nokia quietly added the specs of C5-00 5MP to its multiple websites. The candybar Symbian smartphone is virtually identical to its C5-00 sibling, but for the doubled RAM and boosted camera.

The name of the Nokia C5 5MP says it all. It’s an 5MP version of the good old C5 smartphone. It has the same measurements, processor, Symbian S60 OS and features. There are just two differences – more memory (256MB RAM and 512MB ROM) and higher-resolution (5 megapixel) camera sensor.

Perhaps Nokia is mum on this fella because the Finns think there’s nothing to talk about here. Well, there might be no reason to call a press conference and heap praise on it, but it wouldn’t have hurt anyone.

Anyway you may head this way to full specs or compare it to its older 3MP C5 sibling.

The Nokia C5 5MP should become available some time in the next quarter, but we don’t have any information on its pricing just yet.

The long awaited MeeGo device is finally a reality and it turns out it has a brother – the Nokia N950 is a developer’s platform running MeeGo and packs a QWERTY keyboard along with similar specs to that of the N9.

The Nokia N950 is likely one of the leaked MeeGo devices that was rumored to be the official MeeGo handset for this year. The N950 is not a consumer device – it comes with no warranty, beta software (which has issues) and overall may not work as well as a day-to-day device (e.g. some drivers are not finalized, apps may crash and so on).

Still, the N950 has an aluminum body, which is always a plus and the slide-out QWERTY keyboard will draw the eye of heavy texters. The screen is a 4″ TFT unit with FWVGA resolution (rather than 3.9″ FWVGA AMOLED).

The 8MP camera on the Nokia N950 has “very similar image quality” to the Carl Zeiss branded camera on the N9 but the camera units are different. The front facing camera is in a different location but the same module is used for both devices.

Other differences include the lack of NFC module in the N950 and its digital compass isn’t as accurate and the battery is slightly smaller (1320mAh vs. 1450mAh).

The software on the Nokia N950 isn’t finalized and won’t get an Over-the-Air update (but devs can flash it manually). Still, MeeGo is a very flexible platform and we’re guessing it won’t be long until someone ports the software from the N9 to the N950.

Nokia didn’t specify a release date or price for the N950 model. Still, MeeGo enthusiasts should be ecstatic about this – two MeeGo devices even though Nokia promised only one

Two of the latest Nokia Symbian smartphones have just become available. The handsets that started leaving the Nokia factories at the end of last month have finally reached retailers. User in the UK are now able to experience the QWERTY magic of the E6, while those in the US can get their hands on the 4” AMOLED-packing X7-00.

The Nokia E6 has been listed at the Finish company UK website as available. Sold on both Pay as you go for £339 and on a £25/month contract for free the smartphone costs just as much as it did when it went on pre-order. You can also get a “Phone only” deal for £10 above the Pay as you go offer. If you take the plunge, you get to pick between three different colors for your shiny new Nokia E6 – black, silver and white.

Update 14 June: We were contacted by Nokia UK press office to clear out the issue surrounding the Nokia E6 availability. As it turns out, the change in the Nokia E6 status was a technical mistake and the handset isn’t shipping just yet. Well, we guess the waiting for that one isn’t over just yet.

The Nokia X7-00 on the other hand has even managed to cross the Atlantic and is now listed as in stock with several US online retailers. The asking price is $535.95, which is a bit steep, but early adoption fees usually do that to highly popular smartphones.

The Nokia X7 is currently only available in its Dark Steel color version so if you wanted the Silver one you will have to wait a while longer
