User Reviews for Nokia E71

  • Reviewed by: mdembski

    Duration of ownership: 1 Month

    Strengths: Sturdy build quality, size

    Weaknesses: Poor email client

    Overall Evaluation: While this is a good phone, based on all the reviews I have been disappointed. Its a great phone (voice quality, battery life, signal, etc), but email client is poor and video frequently studders. Does not index large sd chips well, so opening pics, audio files is slow. Keyboard is very good considering the size. GPS is very good, picks up signals very quickly. Menu's are OK, better than Windows mobile, but could be a lot better. I last used a Motorola Q9h and this is not really much of an improvement.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Small, fast, easy to connect, clear screen, great OS, all the connectivity you could need, solid case, adequate camera, WiFi at the shake of a stick, a GREAT PHONE

    Weaknesses: Haven't found them yet

    Overall Evaluation: I have just upgraded to an Internet phone and there's lots on offer. A bit of research and a bit of picking up and putting down and BINGO - I've got a NOKIA E71 - it's fabulous. Instant e-mails into my Inbox, texts are a breeze, no more 4 push letters a real tiny keyboard. Connect it to your computer and fill out your contacts, etc. using the big keyboard. This is one fabulous phone - browsing the web, buying on Ebay, checking e-mails and the voice phone is very clear. The only thing left to say is - stop thinking about buying one and go get one today.
