Nokia has officially announced the launch of the N79 handset in the UK.

The new entertainment focused candybar handset, will be similar to the N85, also announced today, although come with a more stylised focus.

For those worried about matching their handset with their outfit when they hit the streets, three smart covers are included in every box, with the ability to change the theme's, as you might expect, accordingly.

Replacing the N78, it will feature a 5 Megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, geotagging and dual LED-flash.

Elsewhere on the multimedia front will be an FM Transmitter, with direct access to the Nokia Music Store, power for up to 24 hours of music playback plus 3.5mm headset connector and dedicated music keys for non-stop music enjoyment

Taking advantage of that GPS, Nokia has also bundled in Nokia Maps 2.0 and there is a 4GB microSD card with supports up to 8GB rather than having memory built in.

The new handset is expected to be available next month.

i dislike this n81 type design..... i would really consider one of these phones if it wasnt for it...... and the keypad/dpad is usually the same, which i dont find comfortable. thats the main reason i dont like it.

though, these new colours are a good thing, they attract a little more of my attention. just waiting to see the keypad on this..... hopefully they changed it.
