Nokia has once again extended its well-known luxury 8800s line with the Nokia 8800 Arte Gold. The pricing is currently unknown, but having said that it contains 18-carat gold and white leather, it should be pretty much self-explanatory.

It's not the features that elevate the 8800's price, but obviously the decoration. The phone will work in most parts of the world, as it supports tri-band connectivity, single band in 3G, portrays a 2" OLED display with QVGA resolution (240x320 pixels), contains 4GB of internal memory with no memory card support, has Bluetooth connectivity, and a 3.2 megapixel with autofocus, but no flash.

In the Chinese version of this handset, the memory is reduced to 1GB. The 8800 Arte Gold runs on the Series 40 5th edition Feature Pack 1 software platform, and not on the latest 6th edition.
