    Cheaper Nokia X6 16GB in 2010?

    Cheaper alternatives coming your way

    mail share

Nokia seems to be in a mood to make cheaper alternatives to its high end devices of late. The trend started with the N97 Mini, which is nothing but a chipped off N97 with some features missing from the standard version. Not only does this make Nokia grab the attention of users who were not considering an N97 purchase to think over their decision and get the cheaper device instead, but also gives the company a greater stranglehold over the market.

The idea to offer such scaled down models does not seems to stop here anyway. If recent reports are to be believed, the just launched Nokia X6 too will get the same treatment and we might see a scaled down version of the same early next year. The "regular" X6 is all set to go on sale by the fourth quarter of this year. The aforementioned scaled down version will come minus the "Comes With Music" service and will ship with half the storage capacity of the original version. Well, 16GB still is a lot and that should not really be a cause of worry for most users. The expected price for the normal version and the scaled down versions are $566 and $870 respectively.
