nokia 6680

I brought my Globe Visibility account with me and I borrowed my cousin's 3G phone (N6680) so we could road test both 3G connectivity along the way. The Nokia E51 first came out in September last year, it already got my attention. The Nokia E51 is a business/productivity phone so expect good connectivity options -- WiFi and 3.5G or HSDPA (3.6MBps). For a retail price of Php12,300, this unit is a great buy -- probably the cheapest full-featured business phone that went out of Nokia's doors. New owners of the Nokia E51 can't go wrong with this phone. Well, that's until the qwerty Nokia E71 goes on sale at the end of the month. Nokia announced the N78 last February 2008 along with two other new phone models -- the Nokia 6220 classic and the Nokia N96. At first, I thought the N78 would be just a slight improvement over its N77 predecessor (see my review of the Nokia N77 here) but turns out these two have very little things alike and the former isn't a digital TV phone.
