The Nokia E series has been known for feature-packed offerings for business professionals. With the new E71, the Finnish mobile giants promise all that you would come to expect out of an E-series phone – the pleasant surprise is that it’s one of the thinnest phones Nokia has ever produced.
As Nokia finally gives out details of its new QWERTY phone, you will see that the slim design doesn’t necessarily compromise on features – there’s still WiFi connectivity, HSDPA, A-GPS, a 3.2 megapixel camera, AND the smaller front-facing camera for video chat. While the E71 gives up a little on screen size from its predecessor the E66 – 2.36-inch QVGA screen, just a fraction of an inch smaller – the E71 manages to put in an extra battery to its package, giving it a relative advantage in talk time.
Most people who have come to love the E-series will immediately notice the smaller screen, but will actually be happy to find out that it doesn’t compromise on resolution (same number of pixels as the E62). And with the extremely pocket-able size, the E71 is sure to be hit.
A rumored $500-ish release price isn’t really that friendly, and Nokia doesn’t have any info on carrier subsidies just yet. But it will be available with full 3G US bands sometime Q3 of this year, so watch out for it.
