With the EDGE-enabled Nokia 6682, the folks in Finland have unleashed one of their most stylish and powerful smart phones to date. Armed with a 1.3-megapixel camera, full Bluetooth capabilities, and a sweet music player, the Nokia 6682 will have phone fanatics and on-the-go shutterbugs green-eyed with envy. That said, this tempting handset suffers from Nokia's characteristically bulky design, a tough-on-the-fingers keypad, and a camera that's a tad shy of state of the art. This Cingular phone comes with a steep $550 price tag, but it should be cheaper with service.

The Nokia 6682 is typically big and bulky for a Nokia candy-bar-style phone. Measuring 4.2 by 2.2 by 0.9 inches and weighing 4.6 ounces, the hefty handset is slightly smaller than its jumbo-size predecessor, the Nokia 6600, although it still makes for a tight fit in a jeans pocket. That said, the silver and ice-white design is sleek; if there were an Apple iTunes phone in our future, it should look something like this. Candy bar: The Nokia 6682 has a rectangular shape. The Nokia 6682's 2-inch, 176x208-pixel display looks great. Images and snapshots boast rich color and plenty of detail on the phone's 262,000-color LCD, compared with those on the 6600's meager 65,000-color screen, although we had a hard time reading the display in direct sunlight.

On a positive note, Nokia has added an easy-access slot for the 6682's Reduced Size MultiMediaCard (RS-MMC)--far better than its earlier practice of hiding the card behind the phone's battery. The back of the phone is practically featureless, save for a small Nokia logo and a discrete sliding cover. Open the cover, and you'll find the 4.5mm camera lens and an LED flash; the phone automatically switches to camera mode when you open the lens cover. It's a sleek setup, but there's no mirror for self-portraits, and those who like camera phones that actually look like a camera from behind will be disappointed. Also in the box, you'll find a nicely designed, earbud-style headset that hangs from your neck like a lanyard; we especially like the thick, tangle-resistant cord, although the headset uses a proprietary connector rather than a standard 2.5mm headset plug. You also get a data cable and syncing software for your PC.

The Nokia 6682's photo quality is pretty nice. The camera doubles as a video recorder, which captures movies up to an hour long at resolutions ranging from 128x96 to 176x144. The recorder has most of the same settings as the still camera, including a night mode. Even better, though, is the phone's video editor, which lets you cut your clips, edit one clip into another, add a sound bite or slow-motion effect to your movie, or turn your color clip into black and white. There's also a Movie Director tool that takes your clips, then turns them into cool, MMS-ready videos, complete with funky music, fast edits, graphic frames, and titles--very nice.

Personalization options on the Nokia 6682 are good, with customizable ringer profiles--such as Normal, Silent, Meeting, Outdoor, Pager, and Offline--as well as polyphonic ring tones and three themes but no screensavers. You can also set your photos as wallpaper and assign individual ring tones and photos to your contacts. The handset doesn't come with much in the way of games--all you get are demos for Lemonade Tycoon (yawn), Hard Rock Casino, and the aggravating, low-res Snake EX, which is pretty weak, considering the 3D games we're starting to see on the latest smart phones.
