Announced at Symbian's recent Smartphone Show, the Nokia E60 Business Smartphone looked to be the dullest of the lot, a standard candybar phone with all the usual bells and whistles. But it looks like a little corker. Ewan Spence finds out more.
Steve Litchfield reports positively from almost a year of the Nokia 9500 Communicator, day-in, day-out, with only a few disappointments. (Update of original four month review on 3-Lib from March)
Making its public debut at The Smartphone Show 2005 is Sony Ericssons P990, featuring Symbian OS 9.1, and UIQ 3.0, along with 3G and Wi-Fi support, 2 megapixel camera and a QVGA screen. We've spent some time with this flagship device, and we like what we've seen so far.
Thomas Boys looks at the Nokia 3230 as a replacement for a much loved Sendo X. How does this budget Series 60 phone from Nokia standup? Not bad, but there are some complaints.
Nokia market the 7710 as a 'Widescreen smartphone', which gives you a little hint as to what to expect, but 'Symbian PDA' is perhaps more accurate. Long time PDA user and Psion guru gives the 7710 the once over.
In this long term review of the 6630 Steve finds much to recommend the Nokia 6630 and concludes that, whether bought cannily on a contract or snapped up in the final minutes of an auction on eBay, it could be just the bargain you need.
Is the Nokia 6680 the best Series 60 smartphone yet created? Quite probably. Apart from the PIM application limitations, I've been tremendously impressed by how much is packed into this unassuming few inches of chrome and silicon. If one can judge the desirability of a smartphone by the jealous shade of green that others assume when you say that you've one in for review, the 6680 is going to be in great demand from all quarters. There's just one small problem with the memory...
