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.

    With the current bulk of phones for consumers being manufactured in plastic, it was nice to hold a phone that I knew was going to withstand some knocks – although I would be very careful if this phone was my own as I wouldn’t want to have scratches on its shiny finishing. Its slim profile is what attracts me the most and the fact that it sat comfortably in my palm meant that Nokia had clearly not neglected user ergonomics during the design phase of the E71. It’s definitely suitable for the style conscious.

    The size and weight of the device produced a secure yet comfortable feel even when typing with only one hand. Phone locking/unlocking might be better served by another combination of keys rather than the Menu & Function keys. The full QWERTY keypad is usefully supplemented by shortcuts accessed via long presses of some keys. The subtle pulsating light built into the D-pad button is a stylish alert for incoming e-mail and other missed events. The device was stylishly thin and while the metal finish might be a bit of a smudge magnet, it appeared to be quite durable.

    The E71 impressed me with a professional and sturdy feel when I held it in my hands for the first time. Constructed with a polished stainless steel casing, it has a very sleek and modern design, but attracts plenty of fingerprints. There is also an exceptionally unique notification light located within the D-Pad, which will glow & pulsate when you have a missed event like an SMS, e-mail or call.
