Nokia - E61 Review

E61

12th October 2005

The Nokia E61 is just crying out to be called the ''Nokiaberry'' - and the reasons for that are obvious. The large screen with the QWERTY keyboard arranged underneath bears a striking resemblance to the classic Blackberry format, but unlike Motorola's Moto Q device, Nokia have styled the E61 so that you can instantly tell that it's really a Nokia (OK, perhaps it reminds us of a Stretch Limo a little too.)

This is certainly a sophisticated device - the Nokia E61 is a 3G handset with quad-band GSM support, WiFi and Bluetooth. There's a large 320x240 pixel display in 16 million colours, combined with the Symbian Series 60 OS (version 9.1). Navigation is through a Nokia-style mini joystick and softkeys, so this should be pretty familiar territory for Nokia users.

There's no camera on the Nokia E61 - this is useful because many businesses have serious issues with digital camera proliferation, especially in sensitive commercial environments. It does come with expandable memory using miniSD cards (and there's a decent 75Mb of internal memory too). The Nokia E61 is quite a capable multimedia device, with support for MP3, AAC and Real Video and Audio. As the E61 is a 3G device, it can also download a variety of streaming multimedia.
