Nokia E71 review: Messenger of steel - read the full textFollowing some time off since the E51, the Nokia E-series is back to the shop with a new pet for business-minded users. Nokia E71 seems to have it all to take over and build on the E61 QWERTY messengers' expertise. The suave upgrade is...

this phone really won my heart from the very first time i set sight on it even when it was just a rumor.. design and features really do well in this phone.. however, the keyboard was my problem.. it is so cramped, i find it hard to type a message using it.. haay... i would still buy it though for christmas when i have extra money to spend on something that really wont suit me (keyboard-wise).. for now, i'm gonna have to stick with moto q8 with much better keyboard..

Nokia says 640x480 at 22fps....maybe, if it can really record like that, I will get it an pay a lot less than the E90...

I thought i can replace my p1 with this phone but im a bit disappointed with some of its feature esp its camera. Although it has HSDPA but here in the philippines we only reach 2+mbps, thats why i use wifi here in our office. Regarding the GPS, I have HGE-100 accessory in my p1 which works perfectly fine in google maps. I guess i will still stick to my p1 and wait for Xperia X1 to hit the shelves. Cheers

Just got my phone today. It's powerful. I mean, that processor must be something because no lags and I already filled up the 2 GB card. The keys are close but not un-usable. Very stylish. The email on this is faster than the Blackberry Curve I have. I'm selling that on eBay. This e71 is banging.

i really had higher hopes for e71. but, however, it is a business phone, and I have need for a multimidia/entertainment phone. screw that, I`m gonna buy my n95 8gb tomorrow xD

Just got mine today morning. Amazing phone. Blows my iPhone away.
Nothing against the iPhone, mind you - but iPhone feels to consumerish while e71 is definitely for the power user.
I get bored with phones so I will probably keep switching b/w the two.
Amazing phone - little steep on the price though.

"securing the E71 stand as the single ruler of the QWERTY messenger realm"

Maybe they should also consider the existence of imate 8502. I have seen the dummy fones. the qwerty keypad is great too.
