Symbian in Motion: Nokia E71 - The Conclusion

  • absolon · 1 year ago
    It seems to be as good as E51 is :) In my opinion both E71 (I never used it) and E51 are best Nokia's phones so far. Thanks for great review.

    The build quality on both the E51 and E71 are very high, I think many E51 users who upgrade to the E71 will love it, it's a great device.

    You know i don understand why people would wanna upgrade anyway? i was really impressed how nokia made the Nseries line up, how it evolved and i always though man they got lucky cause the 4 number system was kinda weird, but when they created the Eseries i was even more impressed when the E61 came, it felt great in hand and comfortable to use and it got a camera version too later on, meanwhile the nseries received the great N95 and after a few months the Eseries got its Flagship- the one that had it all the E90....now when the E90 hit, the N95 had become pretty settled and having GPS and 5MP with WIFI and 3G where common features and with the E90 featuring a 3.2mp auto focus cam and with the E65 getting it cam version due to popularity i got the impression the Business world also appreciated good multimedia functions like a good enough cam for those moments....and than the E51 came!! thats a great phone man....i gotta say Abul like you like the N82 (btwi do too ;) ) the was a good blend.....all in all the Eseries was looking great while the Nseries were awaiting the all amazing N95 8GB (i love it too :) !!) now the E65 was getting old even though its great even today but like the N95 its upgrade was due and when i heard that a New Qwerty Eseries was coming i had this feeling that Nokia were really gonna step it up.........but whats the diff in the New E71 and E65? OK looks better....Smaller and Slimmer at the expensive of Big screen? i was gonna go with MUCH Better Cam....Much as you've said the K800i's got better quality so what exactly is the point? unless your completey bored of the E65 and have used it to your max and hate its design and wanna get rid of it......to me for some reason it looks like the same difference between N95 8GB and N96.....the N96 has better looks.....More storage and the TV receiver....its gonna be expensive and the upgrades are not worth that much.....i got the same feeling with these two.....

    Just Tell me one thing........what can the E71 do that the E65 can't? (besides no BB support which i don get why?)

    ok GPS may be good but still, Thank for the time man....keep chillin bro

    The E71 has a few new features that the E61i doesn't, like dual profiles, the keypad has different letter arrangement, and the OS is super fast which is essential in any upgrade IMO, that and the super build quality and the size of the handset is what is key here. When I was trialling the E61i, I experienced the slimness of the device but always wished it was less wide. That is what the E71 brings it's he perfect size.

    I've scoured many E71 reviews but have yet to see any specific comments on how the web browser compares directly to the N95. Is it the exact same browser or are there some improvements (speed, stability)? In general which phone would you prefer to browse on?
  • Abul · 1 year ago
    It's the same as on the N95 except it's widescreen so some pages display better than the N95. It's slightly faster but because of the CPU in the E71 is better and everything in general is faster. Stability is much better, only had network connection issues myself.
  • Eric · 1 year ago
    What do you mean its widescreen? It has the same dimensions as the N95, just tilted 90°.

    The N95 browsing experience is pretty good as it stands, so if the E71 is on par that is probably a good thing.

    Thanks!!

    You get more text per line because it's tilted 90 degrees, which is great for reading e-mails, text messages and text on the internet.

    The E71 is expensive, and the display is on the smaller side. The keyboard is a bit cramped as well.
