Nokia has always discarded the easy ways and created unique things. This is exactly what happened to the X7 model, which became the owner of a memorable appearance. Among competitors that produce faceless devices, Nokia is like a breath of fresh air.
Design
You can fall in love with the Nokia X7 just by looking at it. The appearance of the phone is surprisingly bright and unusual. The case of the device is monolithic, and, given the assembly of the manufacturer, there will be no squeaks and gaps. An interesting solution was the use of not only plastic, but also aluminum. The combination of materials created a stunning harmony.
Although the Nokia X7 smartphone weighs quite decently, as much as 146 grams, this does not cause problems. The manufacturer visually reduced the large dimensions with rounded edges. Do not forget that there is metal in the case.
The external elements came out quite interesting. The front side has acquired a display, a control button, sensors, speakers and is completely covered with tempered glass. This solution gave good protection against scratches and fingerprints.
The back side has acquired the company logo and the maincamera. The corners of the smartphone are ribbed, and two speakers are hidden behind them. The left side has become a "shelter" for a SIM card and a flash drive, and the right one - for the camera button and volume control. There is a microphone on the bottom of the device, and a USB jack and a headphone jack on the top.
The design of the device has not only style, but also a piece of solidity. The manufacturer has always been distinguished by interesting solutions, and this is noticeable on the X7. The only problem is speaker placement. When working with the device, the user will partially cover the speakers.
Display
A four-inch screen nestled on the front. The small display of Nokia X7 received only 640 by 360 pixels. This is definitely not enough for a good image, but the manufacturer has found a way to get out.
The device was equipped with an AMOLED matrix, unfortunately, only the name is common with Samsung technology. The matrix definitely falls short of the creation of Korean masters. However, it is enough for a bright and saturated image.
The lack of Nokia X7 was the inability to independently adjust the brightness. The device automatically regulates it. Also, in sunlight, the device noticeably loses in terms of brightness.
Camera
The device received only eight megapixels. An interesting feature of the camera was the use of EDOF technology, which allows objects at close range to obtain the necessary sharpness. Naturally, there is also a disadvantage. Objects that are closer than half a meter are unsuccessful in the picture. Photos taken by Nokia X7they are not of special quality.
Hardware
The device has definitely been deprived of performance. The smartphone received an ARM11 processor with a low frequency of 680 GHz. This is clearly not enough for an Android device, but it is enough for the Symbian platform.
There are also problems with the memory in the device. The company installed only 256 MB of RAM. Native memory is much larger, a whole gigabyte. Definitely this is the weakest point of the device. Pleases only the possibility of expansion up to 32 GB flash drive.
Smartphone pioneered the Symbian Anna system. This is the first representative to work on this platform.
Price
Stylish, though not particularly productive device X7 will cost about 4.5 thousand rubles. For a similar cost, you can pick up a more powerful device on Android. Naturally, if you buy a device for the image, this model will be an excellent choice.
Dismantling
The monolithic case puts the owner in a ticklish position if you want to replace some part. The answer to the question of how to disassemble the Nokia X7 is quite simple.
First you need to remove the lining by unscrewing the screws. Then we disconnect the top cover and unscrew the screws. After that, you need to unfasten the sensor cable. On both sides of the device we pull out the rods, and then pry and remove the front part.
Turn off the display and disconnect the screen lock. After that, the screen is removed, the card trays are removed and the screws are unscrewed. This allows you to removethe remaining panels. Now the owner got to the battery and the motherboard. By disconnecting the last cable, the user can remove the chip.
Positive Feedback
The main advantage is the appearance of Nokia X7 00. Reviews report high durability of the device, the quality of its materials and high protection. The design is very unusual and has pleased many owners.
Low cost - also attractive quality. It may be difficult to find a device now, but it is definitely worth the money.
Negative reviews
Users are dissatisfied with poor performance. The "stuffing" copes with everyday tasks with a bang, but sometimes braking occurs.
The system does not cause delight either. Using Symbian is completely irrelevant due to the lack of many necessary programs on it.
Image quality also leaves much to be desired. A good diagonal of the device is spoiled by low resolution. The behavior of the device in the sun is also depressing.
Result
Released in 2011, X7 even now looks interesting. For users who put the appearance of the device in the first place, this is a good choice. Although the "stuffing" and the system are irrelevant, for most tasks they will be enough.
