This Nokia has NFC capabilities (Near Field Communications, secure transfer of information between near other handset devices, used for paying for items in the future etc). These types of phones are still in their infancy but with this Nokia 6216, Nokia are starting to get ahead of the field.
The main problem with this technology is that shops don't have the software or hardware to enable phones to pay for goods at the moment, but it will happen. We predict that this system wil be widespread and widely used in around 2-3 years time.
So if you are signing upto a 12-18 month mobile phone contract, then you may want to give this a miss until your next update at the end of that time.
As for the phone itself it's nothing spectacular, The design is basically a standard handset that you could find 4-5 years ago in any pay and go shop. Hitting the shops at around £130 for a sim free handset, it's reasonably priced but there are better handsets for that money.
Other features include a very basic 2 mega pixel camera, microSD expandable memory and Bluetooth enabled.
Our advice would be to skip this variant of the phone and wait for others in the next 2 years.
