subject: An Unusual Slider The Nokia X3 Review [print this page] The Nokia X3 review on every website indicates that this mobile phone is one of the coolest slider phones ever. As to why this is true, one needs to look closer. Is it the design? Is it the multimedia feature? Is it the various connectivity options? It seems like it is a combination of all these, with special reference to the various media features on the phone.
At first look itself, the Nokia X3 Slide shows refined features. It is compact, light-weight and has a stunning design that is clearly handy and rich at the same time. The slider design makes the phone quite compact while the beautiful professional design makes the phone very usable and friendly. Examples of this are the flat keypad with a metallic look, a 2.2 inch interface with very cool interactivity and shortcut keys to quickly access and control media playback on the phone. What makes the Nokia X3 inclined towards media features is the stereo speakers built on the phone.
With the Nokia X3, the 3.2 MP camera with enhanced fixed focus comes as a good facility to capture high-quality videos and images. The QCIF video recording lets you freeze your favorite moments as good videos that can be stored either on the phone or on microSD cards (supported up to 16GB). But the media player is what scores on the Nokia X3. The dedicated media keys let you control the media playback easily even while on the move. The media player supports most popular formats and lets you listen to your favorite songs, watch videos etc. in a hassle-free way. The 3.5 mm audio jack completes the feature set, outputting excellent quality audio.
With this phone, the Nokia X3 price is surely quite inexpensive, especially considering other options that it packs. The phone supports GPRS, EDGE, Bluetooth and USB and gives you applications to manage email, and browse websites and transfer / share files between capable devices easily. There is a stereo FM radio for non-stop radio entertainment. Features like the threaded-view SMS make your messages look like chats. The phone also comes along with a powerful Organizer and Voice memo and a 26-hour continuous music playback gives the Nokia X3 excellent utilitarian features.
