Nokia E71 Review

After a couple of weeks with the Nokia E71, I can certainly say it’s the best and most equipped smartphone coming out of Nokia’s doors for the longest time. The smaller form factor has some drawbacks but is something to be expected due to size constraints.

iPhone vs. Blackjack vs. N95 vs. Treo 750 vs. BC 8300

Apple recently released a comparison chart for the iPhone pitting it against the Samsung BlackJack, Nokia N95, Palm Treo 750 and the Blackberry Curve 8300. Here’s their original chart comparing wifi capability and battery life, among others.

Apple Comparison Chart

Gizmodo then reported that it was revised after Scoble corrects it adding that his Nokia N95 has wifi and comparing some more key features. I would also like to correct Apple and add that my Samsung SGH i600 (Black Jack) has wifi too!

Here’s what the real chart should have looked like:

iPhone

It’s really funny when companies highlight their very best features and hide the ones they lack. So, who comes out as the winner? I’m also curious why they didn’t include the Nokia E61i on the chart.

Blackjack: Samsung SGH i600


I couldn’t resist and wait for that much anticipated Apple iPhone. Besides, the lack of 3G capability and the ability to manually change batteries is a huge turn-off. For a while now, I’ve been scouting for a PDA or a smartphone and I’ve actually considered the new but expensive Treo 750 and the updated Nokia E61i. Sadly, none of the cellphone or gadget blogs that I read didn’t really gave me good reviews about them. In fact, I relied mostly on gadget forums and tech sites to get feedback about these phones. I guess most gadget blogs aren’t a good source of product reviews since they don’t usually own (or even seen or touched) the devices they’re blogging about. That’s for another discussion altogether.

Nokia E61i vs. Palm Treo 750

Two new 3G/HSDPA PDA phones out in the market. The recently launched Palm Treo 750 against the revised and even better version of the Nokia E61i.

The highlights:

Palm Treo 750
Palm Treo 750
240 x 240 pixels @ 65k colors
128MB / 60MB persistent user storage
2GB microSD external storage
1.3MP camera
4 hours talk time / 250 hours standby
HSDPA/Bluetooth 1.2/ IR
300MHz Samsung processor
Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC
Price: Php39,000++

Nokia E61i
Nokia E61i
320 x 240 pixels @ 16 million colors
60 MB of internal user memory
2GB microSD external storage
2MP camera
5 hours talk time / 9 days standby

200 MHz ARM processor
Symbian OS v.9.1, S60 3rd edition
Price: Php24,000+

With the E61i is 37% cheaper than the Treo 750, the features above at almost close to each other. Though the Nokia model is slower in the processor (200MHz vs. 300MHz) and the connectivity (3G vs. 3.5G) compared to the one from Palm, the WiFi capability is a good addition.

I think I’m going for the Nokia E61i. What’s your pick?
