Work Horse

Oct 20, 2009

Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Battery, Multitasking
Cons: Not many apps, camera, interface
Opinion:
In simple words this is one of the better phone Nokia came up with in recent days. With it's wonderful battery life (using HS constantly for push mail, and voice calls around 3 hours still left with half of the battery in the day).
Cons - comes with all the symbian inherent faults like doesnt show the caller ph number rather than name, no apps (we live in app store world), sluggish GPS.
Still worth for a business man who is on the move.

 

Best business phone I have ever had! (& I have had a few)

Rating: -
Pros: Reliable, *real* multi-tasking, incomparable battery & connectivity!
Cons: OK only PIM, unreliable phone search, limited 3rd party apps.
Opinion:
I am a self-confessed gadget geek. i have had PDAs since Apple's Newton & HP's Jornada clamshell. Every six months, I would buy a new PDA-phone because I would get dissatisfied or bored with the one I had. I have owned Palm 650 & 750's, O2 XDA & XDA II, HTC TyTn II, etc, etc, (to name a few). I was sceptical of moving away from touch-screen but have found that i am finally & truly in love! It has been a year now, and I still love my Nokia E71 - I could have never thought this possible. I extensively use it for net surfing (using WiFi or mobile internet, PIM, voice calls, *lots* of email (various accounts), notes, bluetooth, photos & lots of documents/presentations/spreadsheets. I always have at three three applications open & often running at same time. never any problems with speed, battery, connections, glitches or hangs. Even ... Read more

Pros: Light weight, pack with punches
Cons: Camera quality
Opinion:
Have this phone for a week. Loving every minute of it. All application run smoothly. Responsive OS. Keypad need time to get use to it. Manage to install MSN Live, Nimbuzz, GarminXT, all good.

However the picture quality is a bit behind, on screen the picture look nice, but once transfer to PC the quality is below par even comparing to Motorola 2MP camera.

Still one word, EXCELLENT.

 

Not worth the price

Rating: 6 out of 10 (Good)
Pros: Sleek looking and solid feel
Cons: Poor camera and poor music player
Opinion:
Ok, I bought this phone because I need better connection and faster speed for surfing internet. I am very satisfied with the fast loading of internet pages and ease of scrolling.

Smsing needs some getting use to as the phone has a qwerty keypad. Not a problem after a week of usage, but still could not sms without having to look at the keypad.

Camera is really bad at 3.2megapixel only. Very disappointing on this not so low end phone.

Music player on the loudspeaker is quite good. Rather rich sounds with strong base. Better than my previous Sony Ericsson walkman phone. However, plug in the standard earpiece, you get a disappointing flat, bassless music. I then bought an adapter, so that i can use my Senheiser earpiece on it. The result was even more disappointing. As the Senheiser earpiece was so clear and precise, it captured all the noise that came out of the music ... Read more

 

Good things really come in small package.

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: User Friendly, Good interface.
Cons: keyboard could have been spacious like bold.
Opinion:
Very easy to operate. Had a 9500 communicator earlier. E71 is so light compared to the 9500 that sometimes I am not sure whether I am carrying it...
