Easy and intuitive to use, the Nokia X3-02 proves itself an amenable, but basic handset. However, if Nokia had seen fit to include a higher resolution display and on-board GPS it would have made what is a solid effort a very solid success. Nokia X3-...

The Nokia X3 Touch and Type is not to be confused with the Nokia X3, a music-friendly handset that we reviewed early in 2010. Rather strangely, Nokia has a multiple nomenclature for its handsets these days, and the X3 Touch and Type is also known as th...

If you think candybar handsets should have touchscreens then Touch and Type should be right up your street. This is Nokia's attempt to breathe new life into the rusty trusty S40 platform by adapting it for a touchscreen interface. The first two T&T han...

The Nokia X3 Touch and Type's touchscreen makes it easier than ever to navigate the phone's operating system. Scrolling down through menus is a simple case of swiping a finger, and the same applies when browsing the web. Nokia has also included a full alpha-numeric keypad, which is great when creating text messages or emails. Unlike a touchscreen keyboard, there's less chance of hitting the wrong...
The 2.4-inch screen is a tad on the small side when you're trying to browse the web – even with touch support.

The keyboard design is also unusual, with peripheral keys placed by the side – rather than under – the...
