Canadian mobile phone users have now a new mobile phone available for them on the airwaves of wireless carrier Rogers, namely the Nokia 7020. Sporting a flip form factor, the new handset is set to prove a great option for those budget conscious users interested in a new mobile phone that includes all of the necessary basic features a handset might include.

Here's how Rogers Wireless describes the new Nokia mobile phone on its website: “For customers looking for an easy to use world phone, the Nokia 7020 offers a reliable solution. The Nokia 7020 comes with an embedded multimedia player so you can take your music on the go and a 2.0 MP camera to capture your favorite moments.”

Those users interested in purchasing the new Nokia 7020 mobile phone from Rogers should know that it has been put on sale with a price tag of $9.99 attached to it upon the signing of a three-year contract agreement. If purchased with a two-year contract, the handset costs $59.99, while the signing of a one-year contract with the company would bring the Nokia 7020 into user's hands for $99.99. The phone can be purchased free of contract too, for a price tag of $149.99.

As one can easily see, the price tag Rogers made the Nokia 7020 available with clearly proves that this is an entry level device. The same applies to its specifications list, which includes a 2.2-inch screen that boasts a 240 x 320 pixel resolution, a 2-megapixel photo snapper with video recording, or 64 MB of internal memory, complemented by a microSD memory card slot with support for up to 16GB of additional storage space (a 2GB MicroSD card included in the package).
