SIM slots, MicroSD slot and removable battery. The top of the smartphone houses the 3.5mm headphone jack while the microUSB port for charging and data transfer lies at the bottom. The right side of the phone has the volume rocker and the power/lock key while the left side is completely free from buttons and has a clean look. The front of the Nokia X is dominated by the 4.0" IPS LCD screen while the rear features a 3 megapixel camera and a speaker grille. The Nokia X is available in Black, White, Red, Green and Cyan and has a soft-touch matte finish for each of them, unlike that on certain Lumia smartphones such as the 520. At first sight, the Nokia X looks to have a unibody construction, however, it does have a removable back cover which encloses the sides completely leaving no gaps or cracks in the phone.

The Nokia X is based on the Lumia and Asha design languages and features a clean and minimalist look with amazing build quality.
