Nokia X6 review – the perfect mix of smartphone and music phone?

I didn’t think I’d be writing a Nokia X6 review so soon after its announcement, but Nokia have obviously been working furiously to get their flagship music phone out in the shops in double quick time!

Is the Nokia X6 worth buying though? Is it a better music phone than other music phones on the market, and how good is it compared to other Nokia phones?

Nokia X6 – Comes With Spore

Nokia has revealed the new Nokia X6 music phone at Nokia World 2009. The Nokia X6 is the first of a new range of X-Series devices that points the way to a new direction for the company – and a much better one than was evident with its recent N97.

Whereas the N-Series range was described by Nokia as “multimedia computers”, reflecting the high-end set of features each device incorporated, the X-Series focuses firmly on entertainment. Music, video and social connectivity are at the heart of the X-Series phones, as is a brand new user interface and experience.

The Nokia X6 features a glorious 3.2″ touchscreen phone that’s actually extremely responsive. Unlike the N97, the X6 is based on capacitive rather than resistive technology, which means a simple swipe with your finger is all that it needs to control the menus and screens, rather than the stylus or a fingernail that the N97 demanded you use.

This makes the whole experience much improved. Add to that cracking features like a 5 megapixel camera with dual LED flash, glorious social connectivity via Facebook, 32GB of storage and a battery capable of playing a whopping 35 hours of music between charges, and the Nokia X6 looks looks like it could be a breakthrough device for Nokia.
