The much rumored and leaked plastic body E71 aka Nokia E63 is now official. E63 offers 3G but no GPS or HSDPA. Available in two colors ruby red and ultramarine blue; I might trade in my E61i for this one!
Whilst appealing to a new group of consumers with a design that feels great in the hand and has two new colors, the Nokia E63 is still very much a member of the Eseries family. Petersen continues, “People use Eseries to access their corporate mail, review their calendar and work in their business network, so the Nokia E63 still includes Wi-Fi connectivity, easy access to Mail for Exchange and dedicated key access to contacts, calendar and email.”
The Nokia E63 also includes Files on Ovi, a service where people can get remote access to their PC files even when their computer is offline. Anyone buying the handset will have access to 1GB of online file storage for free.

While the Nokia E71 is not too expensively priced (@ Rs 20000 in India); a cheaper version E63 has leaked out during a Symbian Software Show. The E63 is similar in design but features a plastic body instead of the metal used in E71, and runs on Symbian v9.2 OS with S60 v3.1 UI.

Just a quick update! Mobile Messenger FRING now supports Nokia E71. This add-on really makes E71 a complete web enabled device. The only thing now missing is Blackberry Connect.

Though I haven’t had the opportunity to hold the E71 for too long, the few minutes that I had with is enough for a short review. I am currently using a E61i (and my next upgrade most likely is E71) and I have used the Treo 650 and the E62 for a long time. So whats so common in all these? Well, the QWERTY keyboard! Ask any Blackberry user what he loves in his cell, and he would undoubtedly tell you that the pleasure of typing on the QWERTY is addictive, and add to that a fast and responsive OS and you would have a winner. The E71 is very handy and probably much more sleek than its predessors
The navigation joystick that we originally has in E62 was replaced with the D-Pad in E61i and is still good enough with excellent performance in the E71. Its crisp and big enough for my thumb. E71 packs in a lot of features: AGPS, 120MB internal memory + MicroSD slot, 3.2MP camera with Flash!, WiFi, Bluetooth with AD2P, Adobe Flash support (lets you surf YouTube and other flash content).
Dealers are selling the device claiming that all E90 features are here and its half the size. Can’t blame them for that can we? The device sure is sleek. E71 has a 1500mAh Bp-4L battery which is the same that was used in E61i, but is strong enough to handle the GPS and WiFi.
One thing that I miss on the Symbian based Nokia devices, the speed and swift OS like the Palm OS (the one I experienced in Treo 650). The messaging app in E62 and E61i gets slow as soon as you cross some 1200 messages in your Inbox. Although I couldn’t test the E71 with that much data, but with a faster processor and three times more RAM am hoping it would be better!
