Nokia will release three new touchscreen phones by Autumn, featuring VibeTonz haptic feedback
Published on Apr 9, 2009
Nokia is will release three new phones all featuring touchscreen input and haptic feedback.
These new devices will all use S60 Series 5 which was incorporated in Nokia's previous touchscreen efforts, the N67 and the 5800 XpressMusic.
A new feature that will be reportedly included in these new handsets is the VibeTonz haptic feedback technology which has been liscensed to Nokia by Immersion. This new software controls the motors inside the phone to allow vibrations as feedback from using the touchscreen, or can be incorporated into games as a "rumble" feature.
These new phones are rumoured to be close to release, and could be hitting the shops as soon as Autumn of this year. We'll keep you posted.
