Main features include a “jewel-like” selection key, metallic casing, unknown megapixel camera with LED flash and video recording capability, 128×160 pixel color display, as well as your standard Series 40 features (loudspeaker, voice recorder, calendar). Information is a little spotty, but don’t expect too much from the Nokia 7088: L’amour collection phones don’t exactly have jaw-dropping feature sets - they’re more focused on looks, styling, and weird circle designs.

The 7088 will only be available in certain regions: Asia, Middle East, Africa, China, and Latin America. Expect it sometime in the second quarter of 2007.
