Since it first surfaced back in 2009, the X Series has been one of Nokia’s most interesting ranges, combining all the smartphone features and functions you get elsewhere in Nokia’s product range with a bold sense of style and innovation and a clear focus on entertainment.
So far no handset has captured the X Series spirit better than the Nokia X6, which first started shipping back at the end of 2009 but which remains an underrated favourite among Nokia’s Symbian^3 portfolio.
But that’s all changed now with the announcement of the Symbian Anna-infused Nokia X7, which we’re expecting to go on sale as soon as next month.
So if you’re thinking of upgrading that Nokia X6 of yours for a newer model, is it really as simple as turning 6 into 7 and grabbing yourself a brand new Nokia X7? Actually, it is – and if you do take the plunge you’re in for a real treat.
The Nokia X6 is loved for its edgy, attractive design, and fear not – upgrade to the Nokia X7 and you’ll have a handset just as eye-catching to show off. The design approach is unquestionably different, but the tapered edges of the Nokia X7 give it a bold look that stands out from the crowd.
And the visual appeal doesn’t end there: step up to the Nokia X7 and you’ll get the same 360 x 640 resolution as on the Nokia X6, but instead of a 3.2-inch screen you’ll have a 4-inch display to play with – that’s a full 25 per cent more real estate from corner to corner.
On the inside, meanwhile, all the key components have been given a considerable step up. The processor goes from a 434MHz chip to a beefy 680MHz affair, while you’ve got an 8-Megapixel camera to play with, complete with dual LED flash and 720p video recording – that’s opposed to the 5-Megapixel snapper you’re used to on the Nokia X6.
On the surface of it, going from the Nokia X6′s internal storage complement – up to 32GB depending on which model you’ve got – to the microSD card-based storage on the Nokia X7 may seem like a step backwards. But there’s an 8GB card in the box to get you started, and the convenience of removable storage, as well as the ability to upgrade to a bigger card at your own discretion mean this isn’t the limitation you might originally think.
All told the Nokia X7 is a welcome new face on top of the X Series range, and sure to put a smile on yours should you upgrade from the Nokia X6 – or any other Nokia handset, for that matter.
