Nokia - E60 Review

E60

12th October 2005

At first glance, the Nokia E60 looks like the most boring of the Nokia E-Series of handsets. At roughly the same weight as the Nokia 6310i, just a little shorter and wider, you might be forgiven for thinking that this was a straightforward and cheap business phone. The unusual camera-less configuration of the E60 also gives it away as a business phone.

In fact, the E60 is a remarkable sophisticated phone for its size - and an unusual one at that. At Mobile Gazette, we have waited a long time to see a true successor to the classic 6310i - but perhaps the son of the 6310i is something a little different from what we expected.. perhaps the Nokia E60 will be the next, classic phone for business?

You see, the thing with the Nokia E60 is that it's full of paradoxes, with a mix of features we hadn't expected to see in any kind of handset. So, either Nokia have been very stupid with the E60.. or they have been very clever.

This is a 3G phone - and yet it doesn't have a camera. It doesn't just lack a secondary camera, it lacks any kind of camera. It supports push email (such as Blackberry) and can edit Microsoft Office documents - and yet it just has a conventional numeric keypad. It has WiFi, but yet the E60 looks just like a conventional phone.
