Hi all! I'm considering getting the E71, but I have one or 2 questions. After reading the reviews, i have no doubt that it is a good phone which will suit my needs. I have heard however that the keys do not have lighting? Is this true? It's not a big hassle, but I just wanted to make sure. And so far none of the shops I've been to have been able to tell me.
I've been looking at the Sony Ericcson X1 as well...but the reviews are a bit spread between 'great' and 'failure'...so although i love the look of the phone..I think E71 is the way to go!

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970What exactly are you looking for? If you absolutely need Blackberry enterprise connectivity then you're better off with the 8900. Yes the display is larger and more crisp than the E71 but when in bright conditions the E71 has a sharper contrast and is easier to read. I own the E71, having gone through the same process as yourself for the last 3 months.
I've put up my brief review which should help.
Bought the phone (E71-1) 2 days ago and am thoroughly impressed. Spent the last 3 months reading reviews of the HTC Touch Pro, Xperia X1 and Blackberry Bold which were the competition, visiting shops to get a touch-and-feel. My needs were:
- QWERTY keypad
- Excellent connectivity options (3G, Wifi, HSDPA, GPS)
- Very stable platform (previously owned P990i....)
- Sturdy build and yet portable (not a brick in your jeans)
- A crisp display with ease of reading both under dark conditions and direct sunlight
- Good multimedia capabilities
- Office applications
- A super battery life
Not the shortest of lists, but it could have been longer. Ranking each of the phones above it was clear the E71 was the winner. Second was the X1 and third the HTC. Blackberry was never really in contention.
Having used the phone i'd say it meets each of the above needs 100% and exceeds that actually on some as below:
Wow:
- Phone feels and looks an absolute stunner
- Out of the box I had synced with Outlook; had all my contacts, setup my gmail account. No tweaking to settings needed (P990i anyone???). My wife (who also now has the same phone) did the same very easily and she is not 'geeky'.
- Snappy snap this phone is quick to respond, even when switching modes business -> personal (Xperia X1 is slower when compared)
- Screen remains sharp under contrasting conditions, even direct sunlight.
- Cute pouch.
Not-so-wow:
- Can't use my favourite earphones yet as I need a 2.5mm adapter, haven't even tested the pair that come with the phone, they look so plain (my ears would riot!!!)
- You'll read about the finger print magnet, but nothing prepares you enough. Thankfully am getting my phone wrapped (http://www.gadwrap.com/home.php)
Tally up your needs. If touch screen is high on your list and portability isn't then the X1/HTC dual perseveres. If you share my needs E71 is your phone.
