Nokia E63: E71’s cheaper baby brother

It looks like the Nokia E71 business phone is a huge hit that Nokia is looking into making a cheaper version for mass market under the label Nokia E63.

Nokia E63It’s not yet officially announced so specs might possibly include {via}:

  • HSDPA 3.6 Mbps
  • 2.36 inches screen (320×240 pixels)
  • 110 MB internal memory
  • 128 MB SDRAM Memory
  • ~2MP camera
  • ARM 11 369 MHz processor
  • WiFi 802.11 b/g
  • Bluetooth 2.0 A2DP
  • Full QWERTY keyboard

Most of the features are similar to that of the Nokia E71 except for the ff:

  • Plastic construction instead of metallic
  • No front-facing camera
  • Missing side buttons (volume and voice command controls)
  • No GPS
  • No FM tuner

The dropped features is meant to shave off a chunk of the price from that of Nokia E71. So if the E71 goes for around Php21 - Php23k, the rumored Nokia E63 might end up with a price point around Php15k or less.

    This is interesting. The reason why I don’t want to get the E71 nor the E66 is because it’s priced above 20k. Except for the dropped features, I just hope it functions just the same as its predecessors.

    If it will go at the 15k price range, that will be very attractive — it’s just like buying a Palm Centro.

    Looks like they reworked the keyboard a bit, adding more buttons on the bottom row thereby separating the Ctrl and Chr keys.
