Default Nokia E6


I've finally picked up my very own Nokia E6 ! After much asking around on forums i decided that this was the phone for me Boy was i right ! Absolutely love it





The battery life on it even with 3G on is fantastic ! I've gone the entire weekend without recharging it. Used it for average surfing , emails , texts and a bit of navigation... STILL going strong !

More impressions coming soon !

These look stunning, I was already gunning for the device in my mind.

How is the battery back up like?

How is the display?

Touch & type does it feel odd to use both at the same time?

Have you tried mails and office documents ?

@gladiator

The battery back up so far seems to be very very good. The screen resolution is fantastic !

Touch and type is also very intuitive. I'm really enjoying using this device so far .

I'd say defo go for the phone !

@GERMZ, congrats. costly but then most important is the buyer being satisfied.

ok my question, the controls are touch based isn't? & the central square is D-Pad. when you press the directional keys on D-Pad doesn't the touchkeys get activated by accident?

@Sam : No , they removed the touch area from the E72 and in my opinion thats a good move. it never worked too well on it.. i feel Symbian isn't designed with the Touchpad in mind.

Other than that , i haven't had any issues with the hotkeys on the side. Anna is actually quite a pleasure to work with. The smooth scrolling and 5 homescreens are definitely useful.

The new email client is such an improvement ! Everything works nice and smooth !

@ Germz

How is response of touch?

How is the GPS? Accurate enough? Voice guided navigation have tried it yet?

Any cons yet?

Are you able to charge it via USB?

I need to pull the trigger soon.

Thanks for the info mate!

Any specific reason you didn't go for an android? 18k sounds overpriced for the features...

@Siddhesh : I needed something very well built and i find only Nokia satisfies me in that regard. The OS does all the basics well so i'm not biased against Symbian. I have Android devices with me as well but i didn't particularly need it here. The keyboard formfactor is great. So basically , this phone was perfect for me.
18k is perfectly priced for this. What feature according to you is missing ?

Finally I caved in. And got my E6 too.

I haven't had the time to tinker around with the camera settings. No macro has been used either. Here are a few pictures captured.






A video captured from my phone

Nice pics Gladiator ! I'm quite impressed with the camera myself. The photographs are captured instantly which is quite beneficial. I guess thats where EDOF comes in

Could you put up a video or something showing how Ovi maps works ? I'm a bit confused regarding it.
