For people who love their entertainment where they want it and when they want it, Nokia announced the Nokia X7 will be available this July in Canada. The Nokia X7 is optimized for the very best smartphone navigation and entertainment experience. The Nokia X7 stands out from the crowd with its unique tapered corners, big 4-inch AMOLED screen made of toughened glass and a seamless stainless steel casing.
“The large display on the Nokia X7 is perfect for playing games and viewing video content,” said Richard White, General Manager Nokia Canada. “Not only have we pre-loaded the Nokia X7 with popular games like Asphalt 5 HD and Galaxy on Fire HD, but Canadians can now enjoy other software improvements such as better web browsing, enhanced navigation experience and easier typing.”
On the heels of Nokia’s recent recognition by Maclean’s and Jantzi-Sustainalytics as one of Canada’s Top 50 Socially Responsible Corporations, the Nokia X7 demonstrates the company’s commitment to helping the environment. The Nokia X7 is free of PVC, free of nickel on the product surface, brominated and chlorinated compounds, and antimony trioxide. All materials in the Nokia X7 can be recovered as materials to make new products or to generate energy.
