Nokia has announced the Nokia 6700 classic will go on sale as a SIM-free handset in the UK earlier than expected on Friday 19 June but priced at £269, a little more that the £220 quoted at launch.

On the 19th, the Nokia 6700 will be exclusively available at the Nokia Flagship Store on Regent Street, at nokia.co.uk/shop as well as Nokia branded retail stores.

The successor to the 6300, apparently one of Nokia's most popular devices, the 6700 classic launched with the promise to "set a new benchmark for mid-range devices".

The 6700 classic boasts a 5-megapixel camera, assisted GPS navigation with Nokia Maps, and high speed data access.

It is available to pre-order at www.nokia.co.uk/6700preorder and will be available from all other operator and retail partners from Friday 26 June.
