3GWeek - Asia’s Mobile News

On our 3GWeek Sunday last carnaval, the #1 most visited post was an E71 Series review from Andy Zain. It has got a lot of massive hits since then. Currently, it has been clicked for about 774 times. I hope you’re one of them cause if you’re not, perhaps you’re a non-Nokia fan boy out there.

From that extensive review, it is pretty hard to find such a hole in which the reviewer had left us in an emptiness. Well, at least for me. But thankfully, now I knew that I was wrong. Still, there are something that the reviewer had missed there.

But what is that?

First, he didn’t tell you about the price of this Blackberry contender right? Okay, now the price is quite vary. In StudioHP , this HSDPA agent has been offered at Rp 5.150.000,00 (USD$566). As always, if you want a lower price of this one then you should wait till Nokia has come up with their next new model.

Anything missed?

Absolutely! If you want to know more about what Andy Zain feeling about this one then you better check his post on his personal blog, Emfelo. I bet you gonna love this. Two paragraphs from him.

Previously I carry a Nokia N82 and Nokia 6210 Classic. The N82 was my main phone (powerful!) and the N6210 is the secondary phone (small size!). With arrival of E71, I put the 6210 into retirement and N82 demoted to be the secondary phone. Furthermore, I found myself leaving the N82 in my bag most of the time, leaving me with E71 to accompany me as the only phone. The slim size and durable battery makes me confident and comfortable to carry just a single device.

I also find myself use my laptop less. I own and still carry around my Fujitsu P1620 which already a very small sub-notebook. However I now extensively use email push, browsing, and IM application in Nokia E71, conserving the laptop battery for meetings.

That’s it. I just personally think that a reviewer should also put this on his review. A personal yet special relationship between him and his gadget. On a daily basis of course.
