Nokia X3 - Xseries Mobile Phone - Key Features

The Nokia X3 is our first glimpse into the new Xseries, the X3 is an affordable Series 40 slider. It packs stereo speakers, excellent audio quality and a built-in FM radio antenna for a complete sonic experience. All right, we said affordable, so don't go looking for top-notch gear beside the obvious full music package.



But let's not get ahead of ourselves and let's take a look at the Nokia X3 pros and cons.

[h2]Key Features:[/h2]

• Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
• 2.2″ 262K color QVGA display
• 3.2 megapixel fixed focus camera
• S40 user interface, 6th edition; rudimentary multitasking
• Stereo FM radio with RDS; Built-in antena (so it plays on the loudspeakers even if you don’t plug the headset)
• Stereo speakers
• Standard 3.5mm audio jack
• Up to 26 hours of music playback
• Bluetooth (with A2DP) and microUSB port
• microSD card slot (16 GB supported, 2GB included)
• Rich preinstalled application package
• Ovi Store, Ovi Maps and Ovi Share

[h2]Main Disadvantages:[/h2]

• No 3G connectivity
• Smallish display with poor viewing angles and sunlight legibility
• Slider action has an unpleasant plastic-on-plastic friction
• No accelerometer for screen auto rotation
• S40 interface feels clunky and out of date
• No true multitasking
• No smart dialing or an office document viewer
• A bunch of software bugs
• Video recording maxes out at QCIF@15fps

The specs look like nothing to be excited about but a shortish feature list never tells the whole story. So, think before you go "Nah, it sounds lame", because you'll be wrong about sound. We spent several days with it and now we're ready to tell you the story behind those specs, the good, the bad and the ugly, the whole thing.
