Heard about phone with a heartbeat? If not yet, then its time to check out the new ultra high-end fashion phone from Nokia – the Nokia 8600 (a.k.a. Luna). The handset takes some inspiration from the Nokia 8800 model, but loses some of the stainless steel charm, with a smoked glass. And here is where the magic is. When the smooth action slider is closed, the keypad is secured behind dark, semi-opaque glass where it softly pulsates in what Nokia describes as a heartbeat. Nokia 8600 has a comfortable size. It measures 107mm x 45mm x 16mm (4.2" x 1.8" x .6") and weighs a solid 143g (5oz). Its display QVGA (240x320 pixel) display can generate 16 million different colours, adding great life to texts, pictures and graphics.

The colour combination of the handset marries well with the contours, and subtle illuminating effects. Nokia 8600 is quite rich in terms of features as well. The handset is a quad-band product. Thus, in terms of connectivity, it offers the best. It runs on Nokia's S40 user interface, offering easy-to-use, and easy-to-understand Menu system. For exchange of data, the Nokia 8600 offers the advantage of GPRS/ EDGE and Bluetooth. One of the noteworthy change in Nokia 8600 is that, it is the first handset of Nokia that make use of the new micro-USB connector. This new connector, which is also used by Motorola's RAZR line2, allows for both data and charging tasks.

The device features a 2 MP camera, with a competency to record 176x144 pixel video clips. And for beats and thrill, the device comes with a competent music player that supports MP3, AAC, AAC+, and eAAC+ media files. But there appears to be no media card slot, as has been the case with the other 8000 series fashion phones.Overall, the Nokia 8600 is a highly attractive device. It is surely a bit expensive, but if looks matter the most to you, then this handset would not make you feel regret about the high premium payed.
