Nokia unwraps sexy X7

Nokia officially unwrapped its new X7 smartphone, the first device on the market to run the new Symbian Anna smartphone operating system update. The X7 features a bold new look that makes heavy use of stainless steel and glass. The 4-inch, 640 x 360 pixel AMOLED^(INFO) touchscreen display is protected by super strong Gorilla Glass, to ensure it can survive impacts as well as look good.

Nokia believes the X7 to be perfectly suited for mobile gaming, and to make its case it has included both Galaxy on Fire HD and Asphalt 5 HD for free on the phone. Also on-board the X7 is a 720p HD capable, dual-LED 8 megapixel camera as well as support for Adobe Flash Lite 4 - to make sure the device stays entertaining.

As a Symbian Anna device, the X7 offers a few tweaks not seen on other Symbian smartphones. There's an updated home screen with new icons, a brand new, faster web browser, and a newly enhanced version of Ovi Maps that offers both driving and walking navigation for free. Another benefit of Symbian Anna is the addition of a portrait-mode QWERTY on-screen keyboard, as well as support for hardware encryption and better enterprise email security and meeting support.

The Nokia X7 features a micro-USB charging port and quick charger, and has a 3.5mm headphone jack for use with the music player or FM radio. Bluetooth 3.0 support also means that wireless stereo headphones can be used with the music player, when you wish to cut the cord. Software features on the X7 include the Nokia Email messaging client and new Web TV widgets for the Symbian home screen.

This new 5-band 3G HSPA smartphone (offering both AT&T and T-Mobile USA support) measures 119.7mm x 62.8mm x 11.9mm in size and weighs a solid 146g. The X7 can connect with 802.11b/g/n based Wi-Fi networks for data, and features an included 8GB microSD memory card for storage. A 1200mAh battery powers everything, and should be good for 9.5/4.5 hours of 2G/3G talk time or up to 18 days of standby time.

The Nokia X7 is expected to be available for purchase during Q2 of 2011 in light steel and dark steel colors. No pricing information has been supplied at this time.

This phone seems like a mix of couple of mobiles, such as if you closely look at Nokia’s most recent release Nokia C7, you will find a lot of similarity, which means, with this design, the over all theme of phone can be matched to C7 and make it look like a step up from a sequel, rest of the appeal and features look pretty much like Nokia 8800 Luna. RIght now, it might be in appropriate to even comment on the specifications of this mobile, as it is some concept phone by some random person, but it is safe to assume that, this smartphone might run on Meego or Symbian 3 and have a strong sleek camera with atleast 12 mega pixel, it could also have a very powerful processor, such as dual core or something! Well, time shall tell.
