Nokia X3 Touch And TypeNokia announced last week the launch of the Nokia X3-02 - the first Nokia phone to deliver the combination of a touch screen and a traditional 12-button keypad in one device. But there's even more reasons to get excited about the X3-02. Read on to discover five of them.

Touch and Type

Its worth mentioning again. With its 2.4-inch touchscreen and 12-button alpha-numeric keypad, the X3-02 delivers the best of both worlds. Those used to one-handed will find texting a joy, while its touchscreen is great for swiping through photos and menus instinctively.

Dedicated music skills

On the front you'll find a dedicated key to give you instant access to your music. Your music collection is literally one button press away - no more faffing about with menus before you've listened to the first tune.

Trendy design

The X3-02 somehow manages to simultaneously look both retro and modern. It features neat design touches, such as a speaker at the bottom so sound doesn't get muffled when you hold it, and a smooth aluminium backing. It's also very thin, weighs just 78g and comes in five colours - silver, blue, black, purple and pink.

Room for more

In selected markets, the X3-02 comes eight Ovi Music Unlimited, giving Nok fans access to millions of music tracks. With the capacity to extend its memory by up to 16GB via an MicroSD memory card slot there's room for up to 8,000 songs. There's a stereo FM radio in there too for good measure.

Corking camera

A five megapixel camera, with a 4x digital zoom, full focus and noise reduction, self-timer and settings for white balance and colour tone is up there with some of the best Nokia smartphone cameras around.
