The Nokia 5800, which made big waves in the mobile industry for being the market leader, Nokia’s, first touchscreen phone, was very impressive, though it did have it’s fair share of flaws. Clearly Nokia has given much thought to what people have said about the phone and have done a much better job with the Nokia X6, which was unveiled in the Nokia World 2009 event held in Germany in September.
Looking at the specs’ sheet of the phone, the most noticeable fact about it is that none of the features have seen a downgrade. All the features have seen an improvement in some way or the other. The highlight of all the features is the capacitive touchscreen. This is sure to be a hit among all Nokia fans as it will make the screen much more responsive, more like the iPhone!
The phone’s internal memory has seen a massive boost with a whooping 32 GB. Admittedly, there isn’t a memory card slot but, with that much of internal memory, we can’t possibly find a reason to actually moan about the lack of a memory card slot.
The hardware of the X6 is nearly the same as that found in the 5800. The processor as well as the memory of the X6 is the same as the 5800. Nokia Maps 3 as well as the Comes With Music service are present in the phone as well.
However, though we mentioned the capacitive screen as a highlights, it could become a bugbear because of the fact that the OS might not be properly made to work with this capacitive screen. The fact that the 5800 had a stylus really helped with the use of the phone, but, with the absence of a stylus in the X6, any problems with the screen could come to haunt Nokia back.
The Nokia X6 Reviews are good, so make sure you grab the phone, which should be available near Christmas for about 400 pounds. You will also be able to pick up the Nokia X6 on contract if the full price is a bit much for you to splash out in one go.
