Nokia first unveiled the E5 in April, and today the device made its way through the FCC.  The smartphone runs Nokia’s S60 OS, and features a 2.36” screen with a 320 x 240 resolution, QWERTY keypad, 256MB of memory, microSD card support up to 32GB, 5MP camera, GSM, 802.11 b/g WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth.

The phone is a quad band GSM device with support for WCDMA bands I, II, V and VIII.  This makes the E5 a good candidate for AT&T in the United States, but we haven’t heard any word of the device making its way to the States.

You can by the device in the US from cell phone importers for about $500.

Nokia announced its X5 handset last month, and today the device made an appearance on the FCC as the RM-627.  The device features a 2.4” QVGA display, a 5MP digital camera, Bluetooth and WiFi.

According to test reports, the X5 supports GSM bands 850, 900, 1800 and 1900, as well as WCDMA bands I, II and VIII.  Nokia plans to launch the X5 initially in China through China Mobile in the Q2 2010 timeframe.  There’s no indication if the device will be released in other markets, however, quad-band GSM support means the X5 can find a home pretty much anywhere.

Yesterday, Nokia passed their C3 phone through the FCC.  The device, which is referred to as the RM-614 in FCC documents, is a quad band GSM phone with Bluetooth and 802.11 b/g WiFI.

Rumors of the C3’s release have been swirling around for some time now, however Nokia has yet to release any firm info on the phone.  We’ll keep you updated as we learn more.

Nokia unveiled their C5 smartphone yesterday, and today the device made an appearance on the FCC.  The C5 is the first offering in Nokia’s line of C-Series devices and is targeted towards the economical consumer market.

The C5 is an S60 3rd edition device that sports a 2.2” QVGA display (320×240), 3.2 MP camera (with flash) and FM radio.  Although the C5 is targeted at the lower end of the smartphone market, the device still offers a pretty impressive range of features, including GPS mapping, access to Nokia’s Ovi portal, video calling and video sharing.

According to Nokia, the C5 will be released in Q2 2010, and will be available in EMEA and Asia for about $185.  There’s no word if the phone will be released in the US, however.  The C5 is a quad band GSM device, so it will work in the States.  But with support for only WCDMA bands I and VIII, you won’t have 3G with the C5.

Nokia’s C6 mid-range QWERTY phone first appeared earlier this month, and today the device popped up on the FCC as the RM-612.  Nokia’s declaration of conformity site confirms that the RM-612 is indeed the C6.

Test report documents indicate that the C6 is a quad-band GSM device with support for WCDMA bands I, II and VIII.  The device also rocks Bluetooth and 802.11 b/g.

The C6 bears a strong likeness to Palm’s discontinued Centro mobile phone.  Perhaps the C6 will be an alternative for former Centro users in the US.

The Nokia 5233 made an appearance on the FCC today.  The 5233 is similar to the 5230, which was announced back in August.  However, the 5233 only supports EDGE, there is no 3G mentioned in the device’s Test Report.

The 5233’s user manual makes several references to China, so it appears that this device may not make it to the States.  It would be nice, however, to learn when Nokia plans to release either the 5230 or 5233…both S60 devices offer a pretty solid feature set that includes a 3.2” screen, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and ton of multimedia options.

Nokia’s E55 smartphone passed through the FCC today.  The device is already available in Europe and through phone importers, but today’s FCC filing suggests that we may see the E55 offered in the States through a carrier.

According to the device’s test report, the E55 will support 850/1900 GSM and WCDMA.  The European version of the E55 is a quad band device, however the test report does not mention 900 or 2100 bands.

This colorful device from Nokia passed through the FCC today.  While it’s light on features, the 2220 is certainly trendy – the device is available in a variety of teen girl-friendly colors from the red/pink/purple side of the color spectrum.  The 2220 does give you core SMS, email, IM, camera and media playing features, as well as nice to have extras like an FM radio.

Nokia has already introduced the 2220 in Europe, but today’s FCC filing suggests that this 850/1900 GSM device will be coming to the States.

Nokia’s X3 is already available in Europe, and today the device passed through the FCC.  There’s already a ton of info on the X3 online, so there’s not much to be learned from the FCC filing.  The user manual is a good read if you’re thinking of picking up an X3, however.

Update:  The Nokia “Alvin”, will be sold as the X6.  The screen on this device is indeed capacitive, and it measures 3.2 inches.

Back in August, Nokia passed the Alvin RM-559 through the FCC.  Today, actual pics of the Alvin emerged on the FCC, and they look impressive.

The Alvin is a 7-band device, supporting GSM 850/900/1800/1900, and UMTS 900/1900 and 2100 networks.  The Alvin also rocks WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS.

The front of the device is consumed by a large touchscreen.  The Alvin’s user manual makes reference to glass parts, so I’m assuming that the touchscreen is capacitive,  although this is not mentioned specifically in the FCC filing.

More on the Alvin after the jump:

Early reports, like this one from Engadget Mobile, pegged the Alvin’s internal storage at 32GB.  That’s good news, because the Alvin seems built for multimedia.  The device sports a music and video player, along with an FM radio and TV/Audio out jack (3.5mm!).

Alvin users can download music and podcasts directly from the Nokia Music Store.  The device also connects to the Nokia Video Centre, for streaming video.  Interestingly, the Alvin includes a RealPlayer client as well, giving users a secondary source of streamed video.

The Alvin has two cameras, one on the front and one on the back, along with an LED flash.  The device takes both still pictures and video, and it has rudimentary controls to reduce red eye, control lighting and add effects.

For the corporate crowd, the Alvin offers support for ActiveSync, giving Microsoft Exchange users access to push email.  However, users will need to type with an on-screen keyboard.

The device also includes a web browser that supports HTML, XHTML and WML.  There is no indication if there is support for Flash, however.

The Alvin’s robust functionality positions the device squarely against the iPhone.  In some aspects, the Alvin outdoes the iPhone, take for example the dual cameras with flash, large speakers and FM radio.

However, pics from the user manual suggest that the Alvin’s interface is not quite as intuitive, or pretty, as the iPhone’s.  The media player looks a bit rough, and the home screen seems a bit outdated.  To be fair though, the only pictures of the Alvin are black and white pages from the user manual, so I’m sure it doesn’t do the device justice.

No coverflow on the Alvin’s Media player

Front and back pics of the Alvin show two cameras, 2 large speakers, a 3.5mm audio/video jack, and micro USB connector.  The proximity sensor disables the touchscreen when the phone is near your ear.

Not loving the Alvin’s interface at the moment.

Keyboard looks somewhat spacious.  However, I’m not sure if it’s in vertical or horizontal mode.  Tying is predictive, but who knows how effective it is.  Keypad looks decent enough.

Nice output to TV.
