Despite its budget pricing, the Nokia X2-02 features an internal FM antenna, MP3 player, dedicated music keys, recording capability, an in-built loudspeaker for music playback and up to 32GB of memory space via micro SD card.
Packing a feature Nokia call Easy Swap, you can easily manage as many as five SIM card profile using a dedicated SIM manager, no turning off or rebooting your phone necessary, mighty useful for anyone with a split personality, bygamistic tendencies or indeed more than one SIM card.
The Nokia X2-02 comes in five colours – Bright Red, Dark Silver, Orange, Violet and Ocean Blue measuring in at 113 x 50 x 15 mm and it weighs 93g including the battery. The display is 2.2 inches, which is dinky by todays standards, but at 240×320 pixels, it’s pretty sharp. Finally – on the reverse you’ll find the fixed focus 2-megapixel camera.
Costing EUR 60(US$81), with competitive pricing and a respectable feature-set for a feature-phone, we can certainly see the appeal of the Nokia X2-02.
