Nokia 603 starts shipping, packs a 1000 nit screen on the cheap

Nokia just announced that the Belle-running Nokia 603 has started shipping, ahead of Nokia World next week. It's very close specs-wise to the current Belle leader, the 701, including the 1000 nits screen, the NFC and the 1GHz CPU.

NFC is a staple of new phones from the Finnish company. It allows the Nokia 603 to pair easily with the cool Nokia Luna Bluetooth headset. It doesn’t come in the box, but you'll find an NFC gift card for Ovi Store.

We'll leave it Nokia's cool info widget do describe the 603. Just keep in mind that it uses microSIM and it uses a 5MP camera instead of 8MP as the 701.

The 603 should cost €200 before taxes and subsidies. Stores haven't added the new model to their lineup just yet - but we expect to see that very soon. Drop a comment if you spot the Nokia 603 in an store.
