Machine with three hardware buttons on the right side, including increase / decrease the volume and power button. The buttons are large, easy to press. MicroUSB port and headphone jack 3.5 are placed at the top of the camera.

On the front, visible next to the Back button, the Nokia X2 also added Home button (return to the main screen).

Camera

The main camera on the Nokia X2 has a resolution of 5 megapixels, with autofocus capabilities and flash light support. Front camera of X2 has a resolution is quite low, only 0.3 megapixels. In the film, the best option of the machine quality is high, equivalent to 720p.

The interface of the Nokia X2 still photography towards simplicity, not showing many options on the main screen. In fact, resolution and self-timer are also the two most notable adjustment in the camera settings. X2 available only four shooting modes, including auto, night, sports and portraits.

Still not bad photographic parameters, the quality of photos from Nokia X2 has not been impressive. Only image granularity in the average, much noise in the dark areas in the image. The brightness of the photo is not stable, usually being darker than reality. Narrow strip of that image brightness.

Possibility of color also is the weakness of the camera on the X2. The colors of the images are often pale, blue reclining. Especially when shooting purple, machines often wrong perception and color in the image turns into Blue.

With the above disadvantages, the front camera has low resolution, users will hardly fancy photographic with the Nokia X2.

Performance and battery time

The configuration of the X2 has improved quite a lot compared to the X line, with dual processor clocked at 1.2GHz, 1GB of RAM and Adreno 305 graphics chip, the machine shows pretty good performance. As you move between screens, open and close applications, the convenience X2 is very fast, but did not see the message “Please wait” as on the Nokia X.

With some games like Plants vs. Danger Dash and Zombies 2, Nokia X2 also performed well. When evaluating the performance of app AnTuTu, reaching more than 13,000 point, only slightly less than the ZenFone 4.5.

One drawback of the Nokia X2 is a low memory capacity. Internal memory of 4GB machine, after deducting the operating system and preinstalled software is about 2GB for users to use. With this amount, you will be hard to install the game requires a lot of space as Asphalt 8, if you want to install the software, you must to remove installed. To store personal data, it’s best to equip the phone a MicroSD memory card, combined with the form of cloud storage.

Nokia X2’s battery capacity is 1800 mAh, the average rate for the 4.3-inch screen phone. Through the review standard battery, the machine achieved decent results, especially in the review time with the game. Specifically, the machine reaches 9 hours 42 minutes time when calls and 4 hours 8 minutes during games.

Software

Nokia X2 still use the Android version has been customized so much like the Nokia X, but the software of the phone has been upgraded to version 2.0 Nokia X software platform, with many improvements. The change can be seen immediately in the original interface. Nokia X2 is adding a list screen style applications Windows Phone, allowing users to find and access the application faster.

Some familiar software features have also been added on the Nokia X2, including notification center built shortcut buttons enable fast connectivity, display and multitasking. These enhancements help software on the Nokia X2 enjoyable, almost catching up Android phones in terms of features normally. Unfortunately, this software version only supports its own Nokia X2, Nokia X will not be updated.

One feature of the Nokia X2 is difficult to overcome, that is it does not support the Google services available such as Gmail, Google Maps, Google Drive or Google Play. Replacement for these services is the solution of Microsoft or Nokia as Outlook, Here Maps, OneDrive or Nokia’s app store. In fact, if no more than sticking with Google’s services, users can completely replace the use of Microsoft services. If you need to use Google Mail you do not necessarily have to use Google’s Gmail application, which can use the default email client on your PC.

But the most notable absence is Google Play. With the lack of app store, you will take more time to find the apps you need. Examples of YouTube, this app is not available in Nokia’s app store, which must be installed using third-1Mobile store. One other common applications as WhatsApp OTT has appeared on other app stores is Aptoide, but the installation is completed do not run. Meanwhile with Google Play, often you will find all the Android apps you need.

Conclude

Compared with its predecessor phone, Nokia X2 obviously did a lot better. Machine has better screen, better performance and much improved in terms of software.

In its price range, Nokia X2 will be competing with many cheap phone other attractions. Asus ZenFone 4 A450 has a slightly lower price, while showing more convincing about the camera and software.
