User Review for Nokia E50
nice as a first biz handphone
Nov 17, 2007Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: small form factor, above par battery life, strong network features
Cons: some stability issues - sometimes hangs during a call
Opinion:
A pleasant experience if its your first business phone.Classic design with large screen size ideal for surfing the net while travelling.Good call quality and amazing battery life.Handy office features - word,excel,pdf etc. and very good build quality...mine has suffered quite a few hard knocks and still going strong.I've been using it to connect my laptop(Bluetooth) to the net(EDGE) on the go and I must say it works like a breeze.
The camera is more like an afterthought though...they should've maybe integrated the biz card reader functionality as well.
I've been using the black edition for the past 6 months and the only problem that I used to have was - hanging while on a call.It used to happen very often for the first one month or so but mysteriously the problem seems to have dissappeard completely...guess it must've been after I installed the Nokia PC Suite on my laptop to connect the phone and dabbled with it for a few days. But, steer clear of the PC suite, its worthless, rather use the bluetooth to connect directly to ur PC.
Overall, I would recommend this phone to anybody looking for a first time business phone that is cheap, reliable and of quality build. Full marks to nokia...
