The Nokia E71 is now available in black, and it looks much smarter than the original white or grey versions. It’s free on Orange contracts and you can save up to £5 per month if you order online.

The Nokia E71 is a professional QWERTY phone, and the successor to the E61. It’s a Symbian smartphone with a full QWERTY keypad and a 2.4 inch display. Measuring just 10mm this is a very slim messaging device. Email is well supported with plenty of configuration options including Gmail, Yahoo!, Hotmail and Microsoft Exchange.

Unlike the lower-priced Nokia E63, the Nokia E71 has GPS and comes loaded with the latest Nokia Maps application. The 3 megapixel autofocus camera also makes use of GPS by geo-tagging your photos with their exact location. The E71 has excellent web browser capabilities and performs well with the most complex of sites.

Wi-Fi, 3G and HSDPA ensure high speed mobile internet almost anywhere. The impressive QVGA screen boasts 16 million colours and is great for watching films, if converted to an MPEG4 format. Hot swappable 8GB microSD memory cards can be used to store music, movies and documents. The E71 has basic Office applications pre-installed and extra applications can easily be installed on the Symbian OS.
