Design

With a stainless steel case, etched graphics & available in 2 colours, the Nokia E71 bears the hallmarks of Nokia quality & craftsmanship. The cool metallic finish is complemented by the bright colour display, which showcases its brilliantly simple user interface. Designed for both one-handed & two-handed use, it pays special attention to ergonomics, as evidenced by its narrow shape & specially designed keypad.

    Reason no.2: Stainless steel is the new black (or white).
    Reason no.3: Its aesthetics is a masterpiece in ergonomics and functionality design, smartphones never looked so appealing. A svelte form factor, tactile surfaces, intuitive interface layout, I’m gratified instantly.

    Design and form-factor of the E71 can be described in these few words: slim, sleek, classy, good build quality and comes with a useable QWERTY keyboard. One minor gripe is that the E71 is a potential fingerprint magnet with all its metallic finishing. Oh well, since I am very much into metallic phones nowadays, it’s just a necessary evil. All the relevant slots and connection ports can be found at very convenient positions around the device and the size & weight feel just nice in my hand (although the device is a bit ‘bottom-heavy’, if you know what I mean). The only other observation is the use of red for the Power key, which I feel is kind of a mismatch in this instance.

    The design is sleek and stylish, which portrays an image of class and status. However, it is quite heavy compared to other phones. The QWERTY keypad is not as user-friendly as it seems, because you would end up pressing onto the buttons beside it.
