Nokia T7-00 passes FCC tests with 700Mhz CPU

The FCC has tested and approved a Nokia device that is a spitting image of the T7-00. Whats this trimmed-down N8 doing at the FCC? I do not quite know but the documents mention the 1700MHz WCDMA band.

The Nokia T7-00 first surfaced in late March, when rumor had it that there will be two versions - TD-SCDMA unit for China and a GSM/UMTS model for the global market. A few days later photos of the phone leaked and gave us a much clearer picture of what to expect.

The Nokia T7-00 looks almost exactly like the N8 except that the protruding camera module has been replaced by an 8MP unit that sits flush against the aluminum unibody. The HDMI port is gone too and the CPU supposedly ran at 700MHz .

Anyway, the FCC tested the 850/1900MHz GSM bands but the 850/1700/1900 WCDMA bands were also mentioned in the documents. The label at the bottom of the device says TD-SCDMA/GSM, just like the Chinese model we have seen in the spy shots. We would not get our hopes up for a global version of the Nokia T7-00 for now, even the Chinese model that we have seen in photos is not official yet.
