Well not only is this the world's thinnest smartphone, it's also one of the highest acclaimed in this sector and Nokia fans will not be disappointed. Indeed, the Blackberry 8820 was the class leader in this format for quite some time but expert reviewers across the web are now claiming that the Nokia E71 has stolen that crown.
It's not hard to see why - built in a solid casing with chrome surround, totally flat screen and steel back, the Nokia E71 oozes quality before you even turn it on. And at just 10mm thin it looks the part too, but that doesn't detract from it's functionality. The full QWERTY keyboard keys are slightly raised, with a light tactile feel to them so your fingers don't slip off while making it easy to type without hitting an adjacent key.
The good news is that the inside is just as good as the outside, with full HSPDA support alongside GPRS, EDGE and 3G connectivity. It's quadband too of course, which means you can use it anywhere in the world, and there's Wi-Fi and of course bluetooth as well.
Features include a 3.2 megapixel camera with LED flash, videocalling camera, FM stereo radio, mp3 music player, enhanced assisted GPS receiver (with pre-installed Nokia mapping), and because it uses Symbian's S60 3.1 platform it's responsiveness will amaze you - it's \probably quicker than your average laptop!
The Lithium polymer 1,530Ah battery just keeps going and going too, with some users reporting up to 5 days' light use - have you ever head of a smartphone offering more than a day or two's use before? We haven't!
The widescreen format makes reading your emails and surfing the net as easy as if you were using your laptop, and the anti-reflective screen makes it just as easy to use outdoors in bright light.
Full email support is there too, with POP3 and IMAP clients, and with push email it's a cinch to transfer email and settings over the air. You can also view documents and open zip files too!
All in all the best Nokia we have seen for many years, offered here at £70 off RRP! Unlocked for all networks.
