Nokia E71 launched just more then a year a go it was success straight away. No wonder soon it became my favourite but there were two issues with this phone i had first one was the price n second 2.5mm jack for audio. This phone was a mega hit last year and also became the phone of the year but nokia was aware of the price factor which stopped many people to get their hands on the killer phone. So nokia came up with a small brother of this phone the nokia E63 so lets now talk about this phone.
Nokia E63The most attractive thing about this phone is its price factor. Priced at Rs 12,300 approx its about 7000 rs cheaper then its big brother E71 but with low price somethings have to go down. Also its the cheapest qwerty phone with wifi around the market
Advantages
A Standard 3.5 mm audio jack is a boon which means u can now even connect your ipod earphones to it. The qwerty keyboard feels better then its big bro other good features of this phone include Symbian 9.2 OS, S60 UI with FP1, Convenient shortcut keys, Provider-independent VoIP support, Office document editor, User-friendly Mode Switch for swapping two homescreen setups and great battery life with talk time upto 11hrs and music playback upto 18hrs as mentioned on the specs which means this phone could easily last for 3-4 days with a single charge on a average use. Now comes in black edition.
Disadvantages
Its got a plastic body as compared to steel body of its big bro but its still well built. It has become 3mm fatter because of plastic body but still its slim n easily fits on your pockets and palms. No gps no HSDPA and the camera comes down to 2 megapixel.
The Final words are its a great Economy phone with lots of features and no-nonsense phone for business section and the college section. Its wins my heart on the price and performance and beats all phones of its class. The lacking GPS comes closest to but still can't be a definite no-go, with a very few downfalls this phone is a one to consider.
