Nokia has finally made it official. The announcement came yesterday and as expected before of what was earlier anticipated of the Indian launch of its Nokia N79 mobile phone. (We reported the support pages of Nokia N79 had gone up on the Indian Side which gave us a hint on its launch.) This is great news as the sleekest Nseries to date finally has come out to play. The new device features an FM transmitter, AGPS voice navigation, high-speed web browsing, a 5 MPS camera and dual LED flash. The N79 is also equipped with a 4 GB microSD card capable of storing over 3000 songs. We also did a quick comparison of N79 with N85 which can be found here and we are now gearing up for the complete review. Catch the N79 Unboxing Video Here .

“The Nokia N79 packs cutting-edge technology into a super-sleek, compact design, a characteristic typical of the iconic Nseries,” said Devinder Kishore, Director Marketing, Nokia India. “It has been designed for those who want a device that is as appealing as it is powerful. This balance of performance, style and entertainment means that it is a defining step forward from the popular and very successful Nokia N72 and Nokia N73.”

One thing I must mention here is that it does NOT have microUSB charging like the Nokia N85

The Nokia N79 is currently priced at Rs 22,939. This is way better than i expected it to be. A must grab if you are looking for one.
