In a move to continue driving innovation in its market leading mobile phone range, Nokia today unveils the super slim Nokia X3 Touch and Type, with a unique combination of a touch screen and traditional 12 button phone keypad.
As Nokia’s first ‘Touch and Type’ phone, the Nokia X3 allows people to tap quickly on the bright color touch screen, as well as enjoy the familiarity of the full keypad for quick fire text messages and phone calls. Expected to be on sale in the third quarter, the Nokia X3 is expected to retail for approximately Rs.9000, excluding taxes and subsidies.
With its sleek and modern design coming in at a very thin 9.6mm – making it one of the slimmest Nokia phones ever – the Nokia X3 slips easily into the purse or the pocket, and looks the part with its brushed aluminum back cover which will come in five vibrant colors designed to suit any mood or wardrobe.
Despite its size, the Nokia X3 ‘Touch and Type’ is jam-packed with features including 3G, WLAN, a music player and an FM radio.Lovers of the snapshot and social networks will enjoy a great 5 mega pixel camera with 4X digital zoom that can take both still and video images.
The Nokia X3 also features dedicated music and messaging keys allowing fast access to important Ovi services including social and entertainment applications.In addition to Ovi Mail, people’s favorite consumer email and chat accounts can be pushed direct to the phone via Nokia Messaging.
With a gentle glide over the touch screen people can go online and get access to many services including thousands of apps from Ovi Store. In certain markets, the new phone will also be available with Ovi Music Unlimited, enabling the owner to access a virtually limitless range of the latest hit music that can be stored on the available 16GB memory card.

its seams a good cell but symbian s40 sucks (10 year Old Operating system )
funky apps, discontinued Operating system
if this device had s60v5 then it can be called a killer mobile
AS s60v5 has got a huge application database

One question I want to ask Nokia that Where are they launching these new handsets? Because C3, C6 and E5 are announced long back but they are not available anywhere in India. Now a days I don’t look for new Nokia phones. Because they tell something and do something else.
But still ALL THE BEST.
