Nokia X3-02 Touch review

Network and connections
Finnish company Nokia always stands out for the innovative research it puts into its devices. This X3-02 Touch, an evolution of the previous X3, combines the cutting edge of a Touch screen with the always convenient alphanumeric keypad. The network receiver is a GSM Quadband with Dual Mode support, meaning it can also take advantage of UMTS frequencies. A phone that makes connecting to the Internet its main weapon, to launch into the Web beyond every limit. That's why the internal modem is equipped with HSDPA data traffic management, so as to reach a really high speed; this way the HTML browser can open pages without any problems. Or you can also connect to the Internet thanks to Wi-Fi support. Of course the classic Bluetooth and USB data output are also present.

Design and features
An innovative line, with a futuristic design offered by clean, minimalist lines. An absolutely reduced thickness, at 9.6 mm. The weight too is contained, at 77.4 grams, for portability without compromise. The front is occupied by the 2.4 inch QVGA screen. It is equipped with Resistive Touch Screen technology, for always quick and functional management. Below is the standard numeric keypad, with generous keys accompanied by 4 function buttons. Finally, a choice among attractive colors for an extra touch in every situation.

Main features
Internet browsing is unparalleled, with functions dedicated to video Streaming or Instant Messaging. Text writing is really fast, thanks to T9 support. This way, composing short SMS or more detailed E-mails will be child's play, also managing attachments with Pocket Office. The classic management functions such as the contacts address book and appointment organizer are complete. You can also manage your own Web spaces, such as MySpace or Facebook blogs, directly on the move. The built-in speakerphone offers good audio quality; you can also make video calls thanks to the front-facing camera.

Entertainment and multimedia
The entertainment sector is also complete, thanks to the camera with as much as 5 megapixels. This makes it possible to obtain stunning photographs, to be touched up immediately with the dedicated adjustments. The dedicated functions are also varied, from Zoom to LED Flash and autofocus. The available memory is 50 MB, further expandable up to 32 GB with microSD cards. This way you can store music, videos and files in quantity. The media player will take care of faithfully reproducing every format. Or again the AM/FM radio antenna for your favorite stations, complete with RDS function. A device also equipped with a long-lasting battery, for battery life of up to 408 hours in Stand-by.
