Music Player
With a built in music player in the Pink Nokia 2690 on , you can carry your tunes with you, in your pocket, and listen to them when you want. Most digital formats are recognised on the phone, including MP3 and AAC.
Expandable Memory
With phones offering so much these days, memory is a premium. Very often on board memory is very low, so an option to add extra memory with the addition of a memory card is invaluable. If you are using your phone as a media player, expandable memory allows you to add songs, store videos and keep photos, and take them with you, all located on your phone.
Stereo FM Radio
With a Stereo FM Radio built in to the Nokia 2690, you will always have access to the latest tunes on your phone. Tune in to your favourite station, whenever you want, straight from your phone.
Mobile email
The Nokia 2690 allows you to send and receive emails from your handset, so you don't have to go to the trouble of finding a pc and landline. Mobile email has never been easier. Read, write and send business or personal email from virtually anywhere, just as you would from your desktop computer. Or send and receive SMS text messages between two phones, or to any email address.
Bluetooth 2.0
Bluetooth 2.0 is the next generation of Bluetooth connectivity. With Bluetooth 2.0 one of the biggest advantages is the possibility of listening to music with a compatible wireless headset in stereo. Less wires, less mess, more noise.
Java
Java is often a forgotten feature on many phones, and is probably used in many ways without you even realising. If you play games on your phone, it's likely they are java apps. But java is so much more than games. It allows you to add extra functionality to your handset by installing third party apps to the phone. Add email functionality with Gmail, add a web browser from Opera Mini, add a business directory with Yell.com or keep an eye on a new purchase on Ebay.
Groovy sounds
The 2690 combines "polyphonic" ringtones with MP3 technology. This can produce a high quality ring tone that allows for truly hi-fi quality speech or music as your tone.
Discreet
Don't want to make a fuss? You'll just love the 2690 silent vibrating alert then.
VGA Camera
Capture your favourite moments as they happen with the VGA camera. What you see is always what you get with its huge TFT display. Want to add some flare to your already brilliant images? Connect your handset to a PC via the handsets USB port and enhance your photos on your computer.
Mobile Internet

MMS
