Ever since the emergence, and subsequent rise in popularity, of iOS and Android powered handsets, Nokia have seen their reputation plummet.
While at one time Nokia handsets were the mobile phones to be seen with, in recent years they’ve struggled to keep up with the innovations offered by iOS and Android. In spite of this, Nokia have retained a hardcore group of fans who are always keen to see what the Finnish manufacturer comes out with next. This is due, in part, to Nokia’s commitment to release smartphones aimed at users who don’t want to fork out £500 plus for an iOS or Android handset. The C5-03 is their latest entry level offering.
The C5-03 is a larger handset that Nokia users may be used to, but still weighs considerably less than the majority of touchscreen smartphones (93g). The sturdy plastic case comes in stylish grey, blue or green, which is sure to please the fashion-conscious mobile phone owner. The case also houses an impressive 5 megapixel camera; an improvement on that of its predecessor. There’s also a Micro SD memory card slot for an extra 16GB or storage and, most notably, an accelerometer, allowing for the playing of modern mobile phone games like Doodle Jump.
The C5-03 comes preloaded with a variety of social networking apps, including Facebook, Twitter, My Space and Friendster. One feature that sets it apart from other similarly-priced smartphones is the inclusion of Ovi Maps. This excellent app uses GPS to provide turn by turn voice navigation whether you are driving or walking. Its inbuilt accelerometer also means a digital compass can be used to further aid users’ journeys.
The Nokia C5-03 is a solid and reliable phone, and is a great choice for someone looking to make their first step into the smartphone world. If you want some more information on this or any other Nokia phone visit http://www.phones4u.co.uk/.
At this blog we like to see the past and try to predict the future, or simply analyse the present, the past being where the Nokia E71 belongs, and the future where the Nokia E6-00 will reign.
If we look at the design, we see that the Finnish manufacturer has become less serious in its approach, so that the handset can dual as a business phone and an entertainment one, so that the user can carry it to anywhere.
What certainly hasn’t changed is the comfort brought by the full QWERTY keyboard on the actual front of the handset – you don’t need to twist, open or unfold any part of the device in order to take advantage of the full keyboard.
Of course, the Nokia E6-00 is hardly the top of the cream when it comes to Nokia’s line-up. To that belongs the Nokia N8, you can visit it or purchase it from retailer www.dialaphone.co.uk.
The Nokia E6-00 itself bets on the touchscreen plus keyboard combo, which I believe is great, adds Microsoft apps needed for business, social networking access for one’s daily life, and my favourite – free GPS navigation with Ovi Maps.

Snake Deluxe 2 from CrasySoft
As we are just releasing the forum, we decided to make a contest: The person who posts the most in the forum until 5th July, will win a Snake Deluxe 2 game. A good way to start posting is by answering tenorplayer23 who has some questions regarding the Nokia E71 vs Nokia E71x. See this quote below:
1) My first question is – WHAT can the E71x do on the AT&T network that the unlocked E71 NAM can’t? What are the most significant advantages of using the E71 NAM on the AT&T network. I see reference to being able to take advantage of 3G system speeds with the E71x. Not with the E71 NAM???
2) There is a great deal of discussion about which “data or PDA” plan to use with either phone on AT&T, as well as, the use of Wifi, which both phones have. Having looked at AT&T pricing, I see the $15 difference. However, I’m not sure what each plan variant gives you exactly “what” with the E71x and E71, respectively. Can you clarify?
3) And, subsequently, how does Wifi affect the choice of one or the other of these plans? I understand that you can use Wifi with the phone in hotspots (or on a home wireless network, for that matter).
4) EMAIL: I understand that you can access web based mail via the internet obtained by accessing Wifi or through the repective AT&T plan. For email from my ISP POP3 account (or corporate exchange, but more importantly, the former) how do the E71x and E71 NAM with the respective AT&T data plans work? Claification of this will probably also clarify data plan selection AND influence the financial decision about which phone to purchase.
5) Finally, since I have had CDMA phones for a long time, how does the actual discussion with AT&T go to obtain the requisite SIM card and month to month phone pla, if you have the unlocked Nokia E71 NAM, to get the optimum use of the phone with their network capabilities?
If you could help with clarifications with these specific questions, I’d greatly appreciate it. Their not intuitive necessarily to a relatively experienced user.

Here is an awesome theme for the Nokia E71, it is called Spyro and waks designed by Pizero. I liked this theme very much because I love the blue colors it has and the general design of the theme, I have to say that looks very nice on the E71. This theme has a special pack of icons so if you don’t like the grey icons of the E71 you can get the old icons by downloading them theme with the new set of icons.
