Building on the good looks and functions of last years E61, Nokia has added a little more fire power to their E71 in the battle of the smartphones.
What you’ll notice first is the supper slim, solid design with elegant metallic finish. Weighing in at 127 grams Nokia have trimmed a little fat to make the E71 a 10mm thin pocket friendly unit. As well as looking good the metal finish avoids those nasty finger prints that other black finish phones attract.
Having a full QWERTY keyboard on a slim portable smartphone is like walking a tightrope. How small do you make the buttons without upsetting those with slightly pudgy fingers? Nokia have almost got it right, the 37 buttons on the keyboard are just big enough, and are dome shaped to distinguish each from the next. Mistakes and mishits are common at first, but you do get used to the key spacing. Having fingernails helps greatly!!
The center menu navigation button on the other hand needs to be worked on. Maybe raising it slightly from the key-pad would prevent accidental pressing and opening of the application buttons on either side….
The screen resolution is a ho-hum 320 x 240 pixels 2.36 inch, compared to the Blackberry Bold’s dazzling 480 x 320 2.6 inch display. While the screen shines brightly, the dull colors and bland icons are a little spartan, simple and unsophisticated. This was a calculated move and contributes to E71′s excellent speedy performance. But of course you can download more exiting themes and icons to brighten your phone up.
Housing a 3.2 mega-pixel camera with auto focus and LED flash, the E71 takes great pic’s in daylight but is lacking when lighting is low. Those that like to be quick off the draw when a good photo opportunity comes up will be peeved. The omission of a dedicated camera button requires the user to return to the menu and press a soft key. The lack of a camera button also means the auto focus is achieved by pressing one button, and then the actual photo is taken by pressing a second button.
Battery life is superb with 410 hours standby and 10 hours talk time.
