As I was googling the web today for recent news about Symbian phones, I came across a piece of news on symbian-freak.com about a new and interesting Nokia concept phone: The E97 ENVELOP‘.
Designed by Fabien Nauroy, a young design artist from France, this new innovative design is quite breathtaking. With its neat and glossy appearance the E97 is more a work of art than a reality. The technical specifications of the phone have not yet been revealed and I think it is best that they don’t, because that way everyone can use their imagination and creates more suspense.
The Nokia E75 is the first Nokia Business phone with N-Gage capabilities and a built-in accelerometer, as you can see here in the Nokia E75 review. Although I have yet to test the phone myself, the new features are quite attractive and I can’t hardly wait for its release in my country. The release date for the Nokia E75 is late April.
The first question that pops in mind is “why on God’s green Earth would a business phone need games for?” Well, to answer that question I came up with a one word answer: “Boredom”.
Every now and again everybody likes to test out their phones and gets even more exited when they can play the latest games and have the latest features. In my opinion a business phone should have all the latest gadgetry available because you can never know what or where one might end up needing them.
If you get stuck in traffic on your way to work or on the road and you have nothing else to do, well, that is where the new gaming features come in handy. Accelerometer and N-Gage capabilities are the most awaited features on an E-series phone since the arrival of the E71.
The accelerometer is present for a much easier use of the phones sliding QWERTY keyboard and for improved gaming that doesn’t make your thumbs hurt. Let’s face it, who doesn’t find it fascinating that you can play games just by tilting your phone?
Although, Nokia has released plenty of phones with this feature, they have yet to create N-Gage games with support for it. I hear they are a work in progress and that we will be able to play more accelerometer enabled games once the much awaited N97 comes out this year.
With the same CPU as the E71 (ARM 11 369 MHz processor), the E75 can run the latest N-Gage games. Also, the 2.4″ QVGA disply with 16 milion colors gives a very good rendering of its graphics.
Without a doubt the phone is more than just a business device. It can quite easily be used as a way off passing time , or if you just want to test your skills.
The new Nokia E75 has just arrived and I think that it is a step forward for the E-series franchise. Gifted with the latest gadgets from Nokia, it is a great follow up to the E71. Of course, it is not an E71 with a slide, it is much more than that.The Release dates for this Nokia E75 is different depending on the country, but it is now for pre-order at Nokia.
DESIGN. The three colors that the Nokia E75 come in are: brick red, black and light brown. Light and slim, it is only 139g, although it features a never before-seen sliding full-QWERTY keyboard.
