Nokia X6 - mobile phones: specifications, review, prices

Nokia X6 is a Chinese smartphone that has become quite popular. Rather, the device itself is not Chinese, but Finnish. Nevertheless, if we take into account the fact that the Celestial Empire currently has a decent package of documents that make it possible to make certain phones on its territory, everything will immediately fall into place.

The Nokia X6 8GB case is a separate topic, and a special paragraph will be devoted to it in the article. There are some nuances associated with this part of the device. Meanwhile, we note that the device was available for purchase in the salons of cellular communication in three variations. The first - just the same model with 8 GB of built-in long-term memory. The second variation is the model with 16 GB. It would be logical to assume that the next model will be the device, "on board" which is 32 gigabytes of long-term file storage. The rule of powers of deuce does not slumber, and this, indeed, is so.

Equipment

Having opened the box in which this smartphone is sold, we can find in it the device itself, an independent power source to it (the battery), a charger and a USB cable. Also included wired headphones, instruction manual and a voucher.

Design

The main material of the phone is nothing else than plastic. Perhaps, it is simply impossible to answer unequivocally the question about what is a disadvantage or advantage. Let us dwell on the neutral version and move on to further consideration. Even at the design stage of the device, the manufacturer said that metal elements will also be present. And, as we see, no one deceived us. The metal elements in the case are represented by strips running along the sides of the phone.

Note that more than once crash tests were conducted, which revealed that the frames on the sides of the device are really made of the corresponding materials. The screen covers a special glass. Similar materials were used for coating in devices such as iPhone and iPod. Again, if we go back to the crash tests, we can see that after the impact the base seems to break up into separate parts. It is in this connection that there is a feeling that the screen is covered by the most ordinary glass.

Nevertheless, the sensor Nokia X6, the reviews of which allow you to make a positive assessment of the phone, from above is supplemented with a special "flooring" that can be physically affected. It is quite easy to scratch it. But ordinary glass will be difficult to damage. However, this is well known to iPhone users. Cracks and scratches on the screens appear very, very slowly. However, it is impossible to handle the device in such a way that during its long operation the display does not show even the smallest damage. Unless to wrap the device itself with foam rubber, for example.

A gap is located above the screen. It is the source of the problems for many people. The fact is that because of this slot under the screen the dust is constantly clogged. If you do not clean the device for at least two weeks, you can see its impressive layer. However, it is also impossible to completely clean everything from there. At least in the home. Completely "knock out" the dust from under the screen of this device will only specialists of the service center.

Front side

On the front of the device, directly above its screen, is the lens of an additional (as it is called, frontal) camera. Touch buttons we will not see, because they are mechanical. In general, such a decision is always difficult to call negative. Mechanical buttons, maybe, are less familiar already for younger generations, but they are much more enduring than touch controls. Yes, and in this case, they are much more suitable for the phone, while others would have some problems.

A similar model with Nokia 5800, because there is a shortcut to the menu. It is located on top of the screen and has a sensory basis. Nevertheless, when talking about buttons, let's not forget that these are just small things, the smallest elements.

Left edge

The case of Nokia X6 8GB, as it was said before, is made mainly of plastic materials. Thus, the use of stubs acquires some special meaning. It's something we see on the left side of the device. The first thought that creeps in the head, probably, about a memory card. However, it was not there. In fact, unfortunately, it should be noted that there are no memory cards in this model at all.

Thus, there are only two logical explanations for the presence of a stub on the left side: it covers either the charging port or the lot for the SIM card. In our case, the second option is correct. So, to replace the SIM-card, you do not have to disconnect the device. But with bare hands, the user is unlikely to be able to do anything. You need a tool, at least an assistant, with whom you can pick up an old card. Excellent for these purposes will suit tweezers.

On the same side, we can see the dynamics in the number of two pieces. The designers of the company protected them with a metal mesh. Just note that the speakers on the phone are loud enough. If you compare the models X6 and N97, then the first in this parameter clearly outperforms the competitor.

Right edge

On the right side of the device there is a key that allows you to adjust the volume of the device itself, as well as the music or video you are playing. There is also a slider, which helps to block the phone. On the market there is a huge number of models of devices that have such a control element dangling. However, not in the case of our apparatus. Here it is deepened inside the body, which can be called a positive moment. But, as the law of conservation of energy says, if there is some advantage, look for and drawback. In our case, this is the convenience of using the slider.

Upper bound

The upper end accommodates a connector for charging the phone's battery. This port is a standard of 2 millimeters. Not far from it, the MicroUSB connector is hidden. By the way, this port, in contrast to the charger, is also hidden by a stub. But fans of the MicroUSB charge will have to be upset. In the classroom, there is no such device at all. The logical conclusion of the picture was a 3.5 mm standard connector. It is designed to connect a wired stereo headset to the phone.

Back panel

On the back there is the lens of the main camera. The rim perceptibly protrudes forward. Erasing it will be simple enough. This will happen by itself within a few weeks of operation. But for a similar design of the device this is not something new. This is a kind of flaw. In the meantime, most experts are inclined to believe that such a defect is quite expected, and therefore it will be better to write it into the category of expected losses.

Build Issues

Much more users of this phone, according to polls, are irritated by the poor assembly of the device: there are backlashes, the back cover tends to creak at times. Is it due to its small thickness - is unknown. Also, the lid can eventually loosen up, if it is often removed and put back. Without straining to snap it in all grooves instantly will not work. Each corner must be squeezed separately. Much more successful would be a variant with a metal plate.

Perhaps, here such support moments can be distinguished in the surface review of this phone model.

The price for Nokia X6 (depending on the configuration) is from 4,700 to 5,400 rubles.
