 Nokia has just announced the launch of its latest mid-range multimedia handset, the X3 Touch and Type. The phone features a 2.4-inch touchscreen as well as a normal, traditional keyboard.
The X3 Touch and Type is Nokia's first attempt at making a phone with a touchscreen display coupled with a normal keypad.
Let's see what other features the X3 Touch and Type comes loaded with. The phone is quite thin and lightweight - it is just 9.6mm thick and tips the scales at just 78g. It is a quad band device with support for 3G, HSPA and Wi-Fi, a music player and an FM radio. The imaging bit is taken care of by the 5-megapixel camera which supports 4x zoom (digital). It can also capture videos.
The phone also comes with dedicated music and messaging keys and in select countries, will be offered with Ovi Music Unlimited, allowing access to a library of over 11 million tracks. For extra storage - up to 16GB - there's a MicroSD memory card slot. The X3 T&T offers five hours of talk time and can remain in standby mode for upto 17 days.
The X3 Touch and Type is expected to be on sale this quarter and will retail for approximately 125, (Rs. 7,500) excluding taxes and subsidies. It will initially be offered in China, Ireland, the UK, Russia, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Germany, Spain, Portugal, France, Mexico Saudi and Yemen. When launched, it would be available in a brushed aluminium finish and with a choice of five colours.
