Just last week Nokia officially announced the Nokia N900 smatrphone, and now the Nokia X6 touchscreen media cellphone was added to the mix for music, video and fun loving cellphone addicts. So for those that are not looking for major productivity and would rather have a fun media on the go cellphone, the new Nokia X6 may be the best bet.
At first glance, this new media cellphone from Nokia looks like a major advancement from the previous Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic (also known as the Nokia Tube) that was released earlier this year. The new X Series cellphone first enhancement is the new Touchscreen, making the X6 an All-Touch mediaphone. Moreover, with 32GB internal memory, it definitely provides a little more freedom for adding your favorite media to be with you at all times. The thing is, there is no external slot to increase that size, but then again, that didn’t seem to be the most major bummer for iPhone users.
The Nokia X6 cellphone also has a 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, the S60 OSS Web Browser many are already familiar with, and includes Flash Lite 3 for YouTube viewing. Furthermore, the screen is now 3.2 inches with a widescreen display which allows for display rotating.
As in music, there is a 3.5mm jack, which will certainly answer music fans hopes for a better solution than before, and the battery claims to provide up to 35 hours of music at playback.
The Nokia X6 will retail for approximately 450 Euros (not adding taxes, fees, etc.)
