But that’s where the question arises – where does X6 stand if makers such as Apple and HTC are employing some of the best designs for their smartphones? While X6 features a somewhat attractive appearance, users might still want to advise Nokia over focusing a bit more on the build quality. Nevertheless, the smartphone feels sturdy when in hands.
