Nokia today announced two cool Music phones one a slider keypad phone and other a full Touch screen Phone. The X3 is expected to be priced at around 200$ and Nokia X6 to be retailed around 700$ USD. The phones will be available in Europe and Asia. Now lets take a closer look at the Nokia X6 which promises cutting edge features in a slim package, a real competitor to Apple Iphone 3Gs.
The new X6 boasts of Full body Capacitive (Multi Touch capable – first phone from Nokia) touch screen with a 3.2″ wide screen at 640×360 (nHD), 5MP Camera , 32GB of internal memory,A-GPS,Accelerometer,S60 V5 feature Pack 2, Wide Screen Aspect Ratio(16:9),Desktop Page capable internet browser,Flashlite,On-board video editing and much more. Definitely the phone is a power packed one and without the keypad of N97, it also is slimmer and less bulkier than N97. To compare this phone with Nokia 5800 will not be fair as the price is almost similar to N97.
Nokia X6 Blue & white - Slim and stunning Touch screen phone
Lets have a look at the dimensions of X3 and X6 compared with other top phones.
Comparision of X6 with N97,iphone,Nokia 5800 in terms of dimensions. Lenght x Width x Thickness
Nokia X6 – 111 x 51 x 13.8 mm Nokia X3 – 96 x 49 x 14 (Not a touch screen) mm Nokia N97 – 117.2 x 55.3 x 15.9 (18.2 max) mm Iphone 3Gs -115.5 x 62.1 x 12.3 mm Nokia E71 – 114 x 57 x 10 mm Nokia 5800 – 111 x 51.7 x 15.5 mm Nokia 5530 – 104 x 49 x13 mm Nokia N97 mini – 113 x 52.5 x14.2 mm
Definitely the Nokia X6 is occupying less space compared to both Apple iPhone ,N97 and Nokia N97 mini.
One sad point is the phone doesnt have an upgraded processor it still uses ARM 11 434 MHz processor and 128MB RAM as in the case of N97. Though this processor and memory is more than enough to handle the OS still an upgrade would have been much better.
Nokia X6 Black & Red - Best Touch screen phone
The phone definitely looks cooler than the current crop of phones including Samsung and LG models and all with a powerful OS and a huge collection of Apps. But the pricing wont excite many but then compared to a unlocked Apple iPhone this is definitely a better deal.
