Nokia X2 review: Fun times two

14 October 2010
When you’re shopping on a budget, getting the most bang for your buck is what counts. And the Nokia X2 is keen to give you an exchange rate that’s hard to beat. This no-nonsense bar delivers a 5MP camera with flash, great audio with stereo speakers...

              this is a true comment of a true nokia x2 user
              signal quality-excellent
              very light too Cary
              display is fantastic n screen resolution is also good
              size of the screen is also good in a bar phone
              sound quality is superb because of dual stereo speakers
              3.5 mm jack & dedicated music keys r very useful
              internal memory is good & it gives free 2 GB memory card
              internet browsing is good but not the best
              Bluetooth connectivity is very good
              camera is very good & it gives a good clarity n quality
              (try too take pics by without flash it will give excellent result)
              video recording is disappointing
              radio works good without the lead
              a very good collection of games
              & the battery is amazing (27h music play)
              a very good thing in the box is the headphone speakers
              overall verdict -a really nice piece created by Nokia with such low budget

                Anonymous, 23 Oct 2010Let's put it in dis way, i used to be a die hard nokia fan.... moreNokia is the best company.sometimes it launches some faulty devices. Samsung uses china techology. Nokia should have used the s60 OS In the X2.

                      This phone is buggy and laggy. Get a real Sony phone instead.

                        i've found that if i click a lot of photos in quick succession with the X2, the phone simply hangs. also for about 2-3 minutes after a photo is clicked it still says "photo being processed." 3 minutes to process a photo? by then the phone has hanged and i've to restart it, so the photos are all lost because they are not yet saved. is this a X2 problem or have i just got a faulty piece?

                          Let's put it in dis way, i used to be a die hard nokia fan.. my sets ( N72, N95 8gb, N79, 5220, 3110c, 5130, N96) but all is past now. belive it or not now the future is in samsung's bada OS, Androids and Windows phone 7.. nokia is only good in making small mid range handsets only.

                          nokia's biggest known sets C7, N8, E7 like are no match with the HTC Desire hd or galaxy s or s8500 wave or X10 or iphone 4 etc.

                                    this is the 1rst time that i did buy a nokia phone..what a croppy sound,,! a thin sound !i bought it last week,

                                    now im remorsing,,camera was not even that convincing for 5mp..

                                    if only my old w810 didnt lost,,im surely be using that til now.. now i can say that..it has the greatest audio experience ,,especially when you activate its megabass,,

                                    i just want to try the audio quality 1 of those x series..but im so dissapointed by this X2..so im warning you guys this is not a music phone,its a shit phone,,dont ever ever eveerrrrr buy this one..

                                    i and i think,i must stick with 'W' phones

                                      dear gsm
                                      i am great fan of your nutral reviews, but i see in your nokia's reviews you have some soft corner ofr nokia ?
                                      in x2 you give 13hrs talk and 600hrs stndby, but in indiaan launche x2 the x2's official booklet tell us only 3.5hrs talk and 400hrs stndby
                                      i am very great fan of your site, i am requesting you
                                      please you should be nutral for any review and comments.
                                      thanking you

                                        I have been using this ph for the last one month. Its a noisy phone and music lovers will surely hate this phone. It takes four full hours to charge the phone battery and being a nokia lover for many years, I am surely disappointed with this phone and currently thinking of switching over to some other brand
