A new luxury mobile phone has been unveiled by Nokia.

Called the Oro, it is constructed out of premium materials, featuring an 18-carat gold-plated exterior, leather cover and sapphire crystal menu key.

The Nokia Oro sales package also features an 18-carat gold edition of the Nokia J Bluetooth headset.

Elsewhere, the Oro comes with a range of standard smartphone functions, including 8GB of internal storage expandable by 32GB through the use of a micro SD card.

This will help users to store files taken with the Oro's HD video capture function and eight-megapixel camera.

It also features a web TV service, which can be viewed on the Oro's 3.5-inch HD amoled touchscreen.

The phone will be released in the third quarter of the year and is expected to retail for around £750.

This week, Nokia also revealed the new X1-01 budget mobile phone, which will cost around £30.
