The 4-inch, capacitive AMOLED display offers 16 million colours and a resolution of 640 x 360 pixels. And it’s made of tough glass, so it won’t shatter if you lose control during a drive around Asphalt 5 HD.
This device is purpose-built for entertainment and that includes the media you create yourself. The 8-megapixel full focus camera also offers 720p video recording and comes with a dual LED flash. The Nokia X7 comes with 8GB memory card pre-installed, with up to 350MB built-in operating memory. It can support MicroSD cards up to 32GB.

The 1200mAH battery is rated for up to 450 hours standby and 4.5 hours talktime on a 3G network – longer over GSM.
As you would expect, the Nokia X7 comes with free walk-and-drive navigation through the latest Ovi Maps. There’s messaging through Nokia Email and you can connect to Facebook, Twitter and RenRen (in China) using Nokia Social. It comes with Galaxy on Fire HD and Asphalt 5 HD preinstalled.
