The REX90 is the most feature rich phone under the new lineup with a 3.5-inch HVGA capacitive touchscreen, Wi-Fi connectivity and a rear facing 3.2 MP camera. The REX80 is a bit step down version and blessed with a slightly smaller, 3-inch capacitive touchscreen, Wi-Fi and mounts a 3 MP camera unit on the back. The REX70 sports a 3-inch capacitive touchscreen, on the other hand the last contender under the new line-up, REX60 has to be satisfied with just a 2.8-inch resistive touchscreen, and sadly there’s no Wi-Fi connectivity added within both of these phones.

First is the Active Smart standby, which is an edge over Nokia Asha phones, and allows users to receive another call on the second SIM card while, remain active on a call over the first SIM card of your phone. The another key feature is True Easy Swap, it’s exactly what Nokia is boasting since the day they had entered in to cheap Dual-SIM phone segment, the ability to remove and insert second SIM card, without turning off your phone.
