Nokia N8 coming to MTN subscribers

The latest addition to the Nokia smartphone range, the N8, will be made available to MTN subscribers soon, as the operator pushes its commitment to ensuring its customers have access to the most innovative solutions on its recently upgraded network.

With the Nokia N8, MTN subscribers can create compelling content and share it on their favorite social networks as well as enjoy on-demand Web TV programs and download a myriad apps from Nokia’s Ovi Store.

‚The Nokia N8 is the ideal product for MTN’s loyal subscribers to maximise their experience on our network and lead the connected lifestyle,‚ says Serame Taukobong, Chief Marketing Officer at MTN South Africa.

Four years have elapsed since the Finnish company launched its first flagship Nseries model, the N95, and this Nokia smartphone is the first mobile phone to be based on the new Symbian^3 operating system.

The Nokia N8 smartphone features a 12MP camera for capturing high quality photos and 720p HD video. And with Carl Zeiss optics and the Xenon flash you can take great pictures, even in low-light conditions. This touchscreen mobile phone also has a beautiful 3.5 inch OLED display for viewing your masterpieces.

The Nokia N8 also comes with free lifetime Ovi Maps with voice-guided walk and drive navigation, guiding people to places and points of interest in more than 78 countries worldwide, including South Africa, and maps for a total of 180 countries. Exciting for Ovi Music fans is that the Nokia N8 will include a 6-month subscription to the Ovi Music Unlimited service, giving access to more than 7-million local and international tracks.

‚We encourage our loyal subscribers to RICA their SIM cards‚ continued Taukobong ‚MTN subscribers can register for RICA at any Y’ello Store. Registration is free of charge and subscribers only have to bring their ID book and proof of residential address to complete the process.‚

‚We strive to present our customers with the latest and greatest technology and with the investment MTN has made in its network infrastructure, we can ensure that our smartphone users can maximise their voice and data experiences. Competitive voice and data prices for the Nokia N8 will be announced early November. Now that’s Ayoba!‚ concludes Taukobong.
