Nokia's lowest ranked device in the X-series line-up in the form of the bold, bright and very loud Nokia X1-00. This music lovers' handset sports a huge speaker on the back of the device rated at 106 phon, apparently enough volume to rattle your window frame.
The Nokia X1-00's loudness is one of its key features as its designed for markets with high ambient noise levels. But not only is it rated at 106 phon – the measurement of perceived loudness – the frequency response has also been tweaked to ensure the sound remains undistorted at higher volumes, unlike most mobile phones.
The Nokia X1-00 has a 3.5 mm audio jack, three music-orientated hardware keys, a nifty single-key playlist creator and also support for MicroSD memory cards for extra music storage up to 16GB. With an integrated FM radio also crammed into the Nokia X1, this handset can be used as stereo on the go.
Also making a welcome reappearance is the dedicated torch on the device. This is fairly rare in devices intended for Western cities, where there’s always some ambient light, but pretty important if you live in a place where the power supply is unreliable or where there is no electricity at all. For similar reasons, the standby battery life is rated at a whopping 61 days max.
