Nokia today, launched the 6555 that promises a slick design along with some impressive specs to boot.

The phone sports a recessed hinge that creates a seam between the top and bottom shells when the device is open. This helps to create the nice look, but also makes it more comfortable to hold and use.

According to the company, the phone can display 16-million colors on its 240×320 LCD and you can even watch videos that are stored on a microSD card. If you want stills, you can also capture images with the included camera.

The 6555 is capable of running on North American networks thanks to quad-band GSM and it supports 3G over HSDPA. The phone will come in black, gold and red accents when it ships next month for $269 in Europe and (hopefully) in the US soon after.
