China-bound Nokia X5 and C5 unveiled, 5MP camera all around

The Nokia X5 has been announced! But it's not what you think. Today, Nokia announced the Nokia X5 and C5 models with TD-SCDMA (Chinese 3G). The X5 is midway between the X6 and the X3, and the Nokia C5 model has been updated as well.

The Nokia X5 will also feature mobile navigation (so, presumably, there will be a built-in GPS too) and Fetion IM. It will come in black, white and red some time in the second quarter of 2010. Unfortunately Nokia spared themselves the effort of publishing photos of the device.

The Nokia C5 keeps the stainless steel design of the euro C5 but increases the screen size to 2.4" (QVGA resolution is maintained though). Making the switch to TD-SCDMA has also brought another update - the camera has been bumped up to 5 megapixels (up from 3MP). The C5 will work with MM-Ovi Store and Fetion and it will come with 139 mailbox preloaded.

We don't know (but would really like to find out) if the 5MP update will make it to non-China C5 phones (call it the C5-01 or whatever) and when we'll see an outside-of-China Nokia X5.
