NOKIA X6 REVIEW
Nokia X6 is a fashionable, high-end touch screen that is a head-turning super smartphone – we love it.
And we’re nothing short of things to rave about with the X6 but trouble is a review of the slimline X6 can just become a list of reasons why this should replace your music player…
First, the X6 has a whooping great big 32Gb of memory (or 16Gb) that can store mounds of music and easily replace your iPod for portable storage. Second, it comes with a one-year subscription to ‘Comes with Music’ that enables users access a free downloadable music library, easy music transfer, ripping music and music recommendations (yet another reason to ditch your iPod). Third, an extremely lengthy battery life (35 hours music playback and 8.5 talktime). Fourth, a 5 megapixel camera that has Carl Zeiss optics and dual LED flash (can your iPod take professional quality photos? err.. no). Fifth, superfast HSPDA and WiFi internet access and social networking.
Okay, so you get the idea – smart phones are fast replacing music players- and this is one of the best smart phones of the lot with a slick user interface and touchscreen usability (in line with the iPhone). Stronger than most of the market in every area, and all this at £299.99 SIM-free (16Gb) – that’s about the same price as an iPod touch.
