Hey guys, I’m here to tell you a little bit about the X3 Tocuh and Type mobile phone from Nokia. At first I must admit I was a bit sceptical because the X3 not the X3 Touch and Type seemed lacking for a modern day phone, nothing exciting about it, but with the Touch and Type I felt a form of excitement just by looking at it. The sleek design and array of colours make it a joy just to gaze at. Being Nokia’s first phone to combine a touch screen and number pad it sure does give a calming factor since the price is not that high, but the specs are good enough for an average user who just wants a beautiful phone with modern technology.The 2.4 inch TFT resistive touch screen with 240 x 320 pixels and 256 thousand colours gives a very clear display and the number pad is boasted to making the texting experience a fast one. The only thing I found odd was the placing of the hash and aster-ix buttons which have always been at the bottom of the number pad but are now to the top right next to numbers  ”3″ and “6″. I will have to get a hands on use of it to see how I feel about this but it shouldn’t be a problem. I love the layout of the buttons though. The phone literally does bring back to life the bar phone form factor. Hopefully we will get one to review hands on. At present it sports a 5 mega pixel camera with 4X digital zoom and video capturing capability at 18fps.

Hopefully my favourite games from Gameloft, one of which is Real Football 2010 won’t have a problem operating on the S40 OS and with 5 hours talk time when you’re bored and not feeling to chat you can indulge yourself in your favourite tunes flowing from the base of this amazing piece of modern technology. In closing this phone is not for someone who is big on gaming and web browsing. It’s for the average user and maybe even the mature users since the UI (user interface) is laid out with large icons to help guide you around the phone. It has what you need for daily activities and what you want for entertainment purposes. This is a great phone at a great price. Look out for my review on it soon. Good bye and thanks for reading.
