"Review: Nokia Smartphone Has All Bases Covered"

By Mendelson Tiu | Published:2008-08-13

Nokia’s latest offering looks just like any other QWERTY smartphone on the market. However, what separates this unit from other phones is what it brings to the table. The Smarthouse Team takes a look at the E71 and sees what this smartphone has in store for us.

The E71 is a wide phone as it sports a QWERTY keypad, but is only 10mm thick. This means it can slip inside a coat pocket without being seen. The box contains the unit, a Nokia Music Store and Nokia PC Suite installation discs, headphones, charger, pouch, and a USB connector used for synchronising files and data.

Although the keys are raised, it is tiny and may take some getting used to. A 2.36-inch QVGA screen (320x240), VGA camera for video calling, and light sensor, as well as a left and right selection keys, hotkeys (Menu, Calendar, Contact, E-mail), call and end keys, and five-way navigation keys are all located up front, while the unit's 3.2-megapixel camera with flash, is located at the back.

The left spine hosts an IR port, microSD card slot, and micro-USB connector, while a headset connector (2.5mm), volume up and down keys, and a voice key are found on the right spine. Finally, the E71's charging port is located at the bottom of the unit.
