Music and phones have had a happy marriage for quite some time now, but the latest generation of smart phones has seen storage and media players being taken to the next level. Many handset providers are now making serious waves in the music industry with the release of their own music stores. Of course, Apple has iTunes, but then there’s the Nokia Music Store along with other provider releases. If you’re looking to merge your iPod and phone handset into one device, then it’s now entirely possible to do that with the huge size of a phone’s memory. If you want to find a great music playing handset, then here are three of the best.

The Nokia x3 handset belongs to the Nokia Xseries. As of now, the only other phone in the series is the X6 a smartphone that comes with a high price tag. The Nokia X3, however, is friendlier to your wallet and is not a smartphone. You should not get a hint of disappointment from that last sentence because when we wrote this Nokia x3 review, we surely were not let down. A lot of people are buying this phone on contract and getting an unlimited texts sim.

So let’s get to it. Let’s start our Nokia x3 review with the physical aspects. Unlike its more expensive brother, this handset is not a touch screen phone. It is a slider handset that weighs 103 grams. Its screen measures 2.2 inches with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. It’s not the brightest screen in the planet but it does its job well. As for the construction, we can honestly say that this handset looks expensive. No matter which colour you get, you will have a handset that will impress others. It has sleek straight lines and a keypad with brushed metal finish. Feels great in your hand and looks awesome, too.

The telephone functions of this handset is one of the things we enjoyed when we made this Nokia x3 review. Talking to someone on the phone was smooth and clear, thanks to the Voice Clarity feature. Details and Download…
