Nokia E66 and E71 Promo Videos & Specs

Started by Zach · 1 year ago

During the Nokia Virtual event, the anticipated Nokia E71 and E66 were revealed. Details of the devices have been already leaked, but this is the official specs form the Data Sheets. Key features and promotional videos can be found below.

First impressions are very positive, especially the E71 in my opinion. The white version looks absolutely ... Continue reading »

    Ooooh yeah! I think the E71 is my choice to upgrade my E51. The qwerty keyboard makes life so much easier. But one thing concerns me and that is the screen size. The E61 and E61i both had a nice large screen, but the E71 looks much slimmer in design, almost like an E51 with more keys and less screen space. And that makes me worry, because browsing the net with a small screen is just a hassle. If it turns out the way I fear, then I'll have to get a win-mo gadget with a nice touch screen... but I don't want to, I like symbian, it's been good to me...

    Thanks man.

    I think the screen is .4 inches smaller than the E61i's. There's a nice comparison shot from Ben Smith here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ben_smith_uk/25833...

    wow...thats really is a difference but you know i feel different now....i mean the E61 was and still is a great phone and its brother E61i just improved it more and if you think about it the E71 really is a E51 upgrade...the E71 even looks like a stretched E51...loll, and i gotta say even though the screen is smaller it actually looks a whole lot slicker.....thanks for the comparison pic man......changed how i see things now......hahah, later man......

    Thanks Abdul
    Great comparison pics. This puts me into perspective. I Have to agree with Zylam, that the E71 is like an upgraded E51. I think I'll have to play with this E71 first and see how it handles, but on the first glimpse I'm truly disappointed in the screen size. It even looks smaller than the E51 screen (probably the same but in landscape).
    And the keys also seem very small. I have large fingers, so the qwerty would probably loose it's function if I'd be pressing several buttons at the same time...
    Oh I've been waiting for this phone a long time, and thought it would be a perfect work phone that I could press my company to get me, but it looks like it's gonna have to be a win-mo device or an iPhone (I would rather not go there). Or should I wait for Nokia touch?

    The only thing I can say is wait until you have played with the device. Pics and reviews help, but until you have used it and had it in your hand, you won't know for sure if you want it or not. The buttons are fine, Even though the design is smaller, the buttons funnily are not, they are just closer together.

    Do you know when the E71 will be in stores? Or available for purchase anywhere? I'm so eager to see it.

    Apparently it will be available in July or during 3Q 08 for EUR 350 before subsidies.
