Nokia’s latest smartphone for entertainment enthusiasts, the Nokia X7, is now available in Sri Lanka. The device, which features a large four inch screen and preloaded games, is one of the first Nokia smartphones to ship with the Symbian Anna software update.
“The large display on the Nokia X7 is perfect for internet browsing, playing games and viewing video content,” said Shiblee Shakik Ahmed, Account Manager, Nokia EA Ltd.
“Not only have we preloaded the Nokia X7 with the popular games Asphalt 5 HD and Galaxy on Fire HD, but our customers can now enjoy a whole bunch of other software improvements through Symbian Anna. Browsing and page downloading is faster, and Ovi Maps is enhanced with search features, public transportation routes and check-ins for various social networks. Typing texts and emails is also much easier with the vertical QWERTY and split-screen view that Symbian Anna offers.”
