Jonathan Kini, director of mobile at Virgin Media said: “The £65 per month tariff offers great value with unlimited texts, minutes and web browsing – the perfect combination for high usage customers who want the best technology available, without paying the earth! The addition of these fantastic handsets to the device range demonstrates our commitment to catering for every mobile customer out there.” 

The handsets:

The Nokia N86 is the most advanced Nokia imaging device and first 8 Megapixel handset to be available on Virgin Media.  It has a dual LED flash and Carl Zeiss Optics, allowing consumers to carry a true replacement for a single purpose point-and-shoot camera. With a stunning 2.6-inch AMOLED screen, viewing images and video has never been more pleasurable  The exceptional build quality and many high-tech features of the N86 support the high standards that people have come to expect from the Nokia Nseries.

The equally impressive Samsung Jet boasts world firsts in both display technology and speed of performance. Its 3.1 inch AMOLED display offers the most vivid and colourful full touch mobile experience available, and its 800MHz application processor makes Jet the fastest full touch handset on the market today. Other multimedia features include a 5 mega-pixel camera, built-in GPS, superior Sound Effect technology and DivX and XviD video support for video downloading making this the handset of choice for all tech fanatics.
