Mystery Nokia, Possibly Nokia N8, Clears FCC

Apr 26, 2010, 8:10 PM by Philip Berne

A mysterious new Nokia device has cleared FCC testing. The device sports a unique mix of radio bands, specifically 3G support for the 850 / 1700 / 1900 bands, which might indicate support for both AT&T's network, which sits on the 850 / 1900 bands, and T-Mobile's 3G network, which uses 1700 as one of it's bands. The FCC label for the new device seems to be etched onto the shell, perhaps indicating a unibody construction without a standard, removable battery? The scant photos available from the FCC seem to match supposedly leaked photographs of the rumored Nokia N8 smartphone. Besides the 3G support, the phone will feature Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and an FM transmitter, which fits with Nokia's high-end Nseries lineup.
