If I remember correctly, the Xseries was designed for teens like its Xpressmusic predecessor.

I don't think any teen would touch it with a ten foot pole.]]>Jun 14th 2010 12:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/Jun 14th 2010 1:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/whats up with all these out of proportion squarish phones?

I am a die hard Nokia fan, but the first thing that came into my head upon seeing the image was "Chubby". Sure enough, I read the article, and Nilay had also called it "Chubby". Great minds think alike, I guess :D

Btw, I am confused, is it the Chinese-X5 in the picture, or the World-wide X5? Which model is which?]]>Jun 14th 2010 10:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/Jun 14th 2010 10:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/Ah, reading the gsmarena article (http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_announces_fair_and_square_x501_plus_nokia_x6_8gb-news-1734.php), I think its a bit clarified. This is actually X5-01 (http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_x5_01-3396.php). The Chinese one is this one (http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_x5_td_scdma-3286.php).

Reading the X5-01 link, it list the dimensions and weight as 74.3 x 66.4 x 16.8 mm, 129 g. For an estimated 165 Euro, Its not a bad device.]]>Jun 14th 2010 11:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/14/nokia-x5-square-slider-gets-official-in-singapore/The article compares them to Kin and Flipout. From gsmarena, it lists the Kin1 as 19.1mm and Flipout as 17mm thick. The X5-01 is slimmer than both.

This is X5-01. How's that confusing? I kinda like the black version.
