Nokia X3: Meet Touchscreen & Keypad

Nokia X3: Meet Touchscreen & Keypad


Nokia has a new feature phone out, Nokia X3, and its claim to fame is something Nokia calls Touch and Type: a rarely seen combination between a touchscreen and a fairly standard 16-button keypad. Nokia calls the phone X3, but to differ from the earlier Nokia phones by the same name, it also goes by the name Nokia X3-02.
Feature-wise, it’s a fairly standard mid-range phone, with a 5-megapixel camera, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, music player and FM radio. It sports a 9.6-mm thick, brushed aluminum casing, available in five colors.
The operating system that powers the phone is S40, so don’t expect magic when it comes to the touchscreen UI, but it’s hard to complain when you’re getting both options — keypad and touchscreen — in one phone.
Suggested retail price for Nokia X3 is approximately $161 (125 euro), and it’s expected to hit the market sometime this quarter.
