Nokia E71 White Specifications And Descriptions

Nokia's latest slimline Blackberry-esque E-series PDA-cum-smartphone offering appears to be little more than a thinner, more compact version of the E61 in a neat little steel jacket; the E71 however does not suffer from any of the performance problems which blighted its predecessors and runs like a charm.

Memory, the chief bugbear of previous E-series handsets has received especial attention - 110MB of internal memory comes included, but this can be given the full 8GB treatment thanks to microSD card expansion. Mobile email is the cornerstone of the E71's functions, as it supports a wide range of personal and corporate email standards such as Microsoft Exchange, Google's Gmail, Yahoo! Mail, Visto Mobile, System Seven, Hotmail, and Nokia's own Intellisync Wireless Email.

At this point, it's worth mentioning that Nokia have declined to include support for BlackBerry Connect, kind of a bummer, but seeing as Nokia are now offering their own Intellisync push email service, you can see why they haven't included this - it would be like having an N95 8GB with integrated support for iTunes. This should be news to no-one, as the company announced that as of the E66 and E71, they would not be offering Blackberry Connect support. Still, with the various other email standards available, cross-platform comms shouldn't be a problem.

The tactile QWERTY keyboard, whilst crammed into a much smaller space than that of the E61, is easy to use, despite our initial fears that it would be far too small. Tapping out emails is not an ergonomic squeeze-fest, the keys depress nicely and firmly, so there's little chance of making a mistake.

The E71 also comes with a GPS receiver which is pretty decent, although not as streamlined as some of the sat-nav phones available, such as Nokia's own 6210 Navigator. Load times can be mitigated by using A-GPS (Assisted GPS), but this can cost you extra, depending on what contract/data rate you are on. The E71 also comes with Nokia Maps 2.0 pre-installed, which is nice. Extras such as up to date traffic information and voice-guided route planning are available, albeit sold separately.

We've yet to mention the 2.4" QVGA display, through which web pages and roadmaps are both legible without having to peer intensely and are a joy to scroll through - like many of the QVGA displays of the recent batch of Nokia handsets, the E71's screen is capable of kicking out maps, pages and images in some 16 million colours.

Speaking of which, the E71 also comes with an LED-flash enhanced 3.2 Megapixel camera with autofocus which takes decent pics that don't look at all bad on the big(ish) display. Again, whilst it's not the best camera going by any means, its certainly a nice addition to a smartphone handset which is primarily geared for practically every mobile email standard going. A music player, capable of handling MP3, WMA, AAC and eAAC along with an FM radio comes bundled for additional audio enjoyment.

Talk time for voice is around 10 and a half hours (with around 400 hours of standby time) which is really impressive considering the number of features bolted on to the E71.
