Yes, it’s finally official. The Nokia X7 has been launched by Nokia, and will be available from Three in the UK. The stainless steel handset runs an updated Symbian^3 “Anna” (aka, PR2) OS that finally introduces a vastly improved browser and portrait QWERTY with split-view data entry among its 50 new enhancements that Nokia hope will restore abit of the Symbian’s glory.

Slightly less biffed up than the N8, the X7 will have an 8 megapixel cam with dual-LED flash that’s capable of 720p video recording, 4-inch OLED ClearBlack display, HD video recording, and 256MB RAM / 1GB ROM with an 8GB memory card tossed in the box.

What’s powering this stainless steel baby is a somewhat slow and very old 680MHz (ARM-11) processor that is identical with the N8 and E7. Right, when everyone’s running either a 1GHz Snapdragon or Hummingbird. And the GPU will be the same BCM2727 that’s somewhat disappointing in the E7.

The X7 will be available in Q2 with a price set at €380 before taxes and subsidies.
