The look and feel of the E5 is completely different from the current E72. That’s probably more good than bad since the E71 and E72 are barely distinguishable in terms of the hardware.The E5 has the headline smartphone features of HSDPA, Wi-Fi and A-GPS, as well as a 5-megapixel camera with flash, and plenty of software. Symbian S60 3rd Edition is the operating system of choice, and you can bulk out the provided apps via the Ovi store. The E5 sports a solid-feeling silver metal backplate that provides great protection, and enhances the black and silver colour scheme of our review ...

The Nokia X6 is also the first XpressMusic handset to head straight for the high-end. Midrange is the highest the music Finns have gone so we are interested to see how this change of approach works. Nokia have always had a strong appeal to the masses, but pleasing the selected few is undoubtedly harder.Nokia’s first Xseries phone is an upmarket touchscreen smartphone with a compact design. Its star features include a superbly responsive capacitive touchscreen, 8GB, 16GB or 32GB of memory, an impressive 5 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, video calling, A-GPS, HSDPA, WiFi, a ...

The N97 is more a mobile computer than a mobile phone. Packed with every imaginable feature, Nokia’s designers have succeeded in creating a device that is supremely powerful yet easy to use, with a user-friendly touchscreen and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. With music, video, photos, email, web and downloadable apps all easily accessible from the customisable home page, the N97 delivers everything that we could ask for on the move. However, it’s big, heavy and expensive, and has the usual freezing/crashing problems that come with NSeries phones.The minute you get the Nokia N97 ...

The Nokia N86 is Nokia’s first phone to feature an 8 megapixel camera. But really, what an ugly phone it is! Still, it’s a high-spec phone with features such as GPS navigation, 8GB memory, WiFi and HSDPA. But let down by a poor keypad, high weight and questionable reliability.The weight of the Nokia N86 8MP, 5.36 oz. (149 g) did take us aback. Although the device is as heavy as the Nokia N97, the first 8-megapixel camera phone of the manufacturer feels hefty and solid in your hand due to the numerous metal elements, something we already know from Arte models. We aren’t ...

The Nokia E71 is Nokia’s greatest challenge to BlackBerry yet. With full support for push email, attachment editing and web browsing, Nokia have definitely parked their tanks on the BlackBerry lawn. The E71 also features full multimedia capabilities, including a 3.2 megapixel camera, video calling, and a media player. HSDPA, WLAN, GPS and big battery power complete the package. It’s available in a choice of Black, Grey or White Steel.Nokia have equipped the E71 with one of their best screens. Measuring 2.36 inches across, with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, this gives a good ...

The Nokia C7 is another return to form from Nokia on the hardware front. It’s well made, has great battery life and call quality puts many rivals to shame. However, except for the incredibly useful OVI maps application, the software trails pretty much all other smartphones for ease of use and – in some cases – functionality.This has a greater range and is a whole lot faster than Bluetooth 2.1 as long as you’re connecting to another 3.0 device or enabled PC. Communicate with older Bluetooth versions, though, and the Nokia C7 is pulled down to their ...

The Nokia E66 is a new business oriented smartphone that is tasked with replacing Nokia’s popular E65. With a 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera and updated Contacts and Calendar applications, we take a look to see if the E66 is much of an improvement, and how well it stands up to the tasks expected of a business phone.The Nokia E66, available in grey or white steel, is a slider handset with a regular numeric keypad. The top part of the slide is bordered with a chrome bezel, and the backplate is metal, with a dimpled pattern that offers a bit of grip. The remaining areas of the housing ...

The Nokia E63 is arguably the company’s first BlackBerry-beater. With full support for push email, attachment editing and web browsing, an absolutely superb QWERTY keyboard, WLAN and 3G support, it meets the full needs of the business user. The E63 also has a camera, video calling, and a media player. It’s missing HSDPA and GPS, but these are really its only faults.The E63 follows the same form factor of the E71 i.e. QWERTY candybar. The E63 measures at 113*59*13mm whereas the E71 measures at only 114*57*10mm. Yes the E63 is bigger than the E71 in both width and thickness but is ...

Nokia’s C3 looks like the funky sibling of the serious, yet popular E71. Its full QWERTY keypad is matched with a bevy of messaging functionality, but without 3G, its Web life is compromised.The C3 is reminiscent of a BlackBerry in terms of its design, with a landscape screen sitting above a full Qwerty keyboard. The screen’s 320×240-pixel resolution isn’t exactly earth-shattering, but, as it’s only a 61mm (2.4-inch) display, the pixels are packed quite closely together, so text and graphics still look pretty sharp. he dominant feature of the Nokia C3 is its ...

The E72 features a sleek business-like design, sporting a BlackBerry-style full QWERTY keyboard across its wide body. Some eye-catching chrome trim complements the classically understated bodywork that’s aimed squarely at serious business users.This E-series model operates on the non-touchscreen Symbian S60 3rd Edition (v3.2.3) platform, so there’s no screen-tapping action here – its 2.36-inch QVGA (320 x 240 pixels) landscape-oriented TFT display is, in fact, similar to the E71’s. Like the E75, the E72 runs Symbian OS 9.3 on the S60 3rd Edition platform with Feature ...
