Not only is the Nokia X7 a great little phone for general use it is also attractively.....
There has been talk for several months now of Nokia launching a handset that excels in the gaming and multimedia fields and now with the release of the new X7 handset these rumors have become a reality. This new model combines a number of factors which make it suited for use in these areas which include a large screen and ergonomic design so the device is comfortable in use. Given Nokias tradition and experience at producing high quality phones this model shove prove a sure fire success.The first evidence of the development of this phone being edged towards gamers can be found with the actual design of the handset. The back panel of the device has a distinct curve which makes it not only pleasing on the eye but means that when held in the landscape position the X7 sits naturally and very comfortably in your hands. This enables game fans to enjoy hours of playing with the screen in widescreen mode,
the favoured format for many titles. Day to day use of the device will be in the more traditional upright position but then accelerometer kicks in swiftly when needed to flip things around. Technically the phone has the speed and power to cope with not only the demands of the modern games user but also multimedia fans alike. The engine that drives everything along is an ARM1176 processor which offers speeds of around 680Mhz. This may be a little behind some of the higher speed top end phones available but still ample for a device such as this and when you actual load a title on the X7 there is no noticeable lag when playing and games load very quickly indeed.An important issue for anybody serious about their gaming is storage so thankfully the Nokia X7 offers plenty of options. Inevitably you will not complete a title in one sitting and many users will indeed alternate between different games and therefore progress needs to be saved as and when is required. Whereas this may place a lot of strain on a more traditional handset, the X7 offers a micro SD card slot in addition to a small amount of internal storage. The card slot means you add can storage capacity to suit your own needs, for example somebody who uses the handset for general use with maybe a couple of games will find 4GB sufficient but another user who does all of this plus takes multiple photos and stores all his music may require 16 or 32GB. Nokia have sensibly thrown in an 8GB card in the box as well just to get you started. Once you have your phone Nokias "Ovi Store" offers hundreds of downloads which can be accessed quickly and easily thanks to the phones 3G and WiFi connections. These titles range from classic to more modern affairs such as the international hit "Angry Birds".Not only is the Nokia X7 a great little phone for general use it is also attractively priced considering its high specification and anybody with an preference for mobile gaming or indeed multi media usage should see this model as a great investment.The Nokia X7 and the Motorola Cliq 2 are coming soon.
