~~~~~ Insane Value for Money, Ultimate device ~~~~. Review on Nokia E63

I had Sony Ericcsson W 700i which I have been using for last 24 months and still feel it`s not obselete untill I felt the need for bigger screen and better typing speed. I also needed Push maillike the Blackberry. My addiction with MouthShut_Official.com needed to be satisfied with an better enabled set in which commenting should be a cakewalk through a QWERT key pad.

I got it ALL here.

It has infinite functions and I was getting mad for last one month exploring it fully. But, still I need to explore more.... I shall explain in very brief which I use regularly.

PUSHMAIL

I just needed to put user id and passwords for my Yahoo and Gmail account and Nokia Configuration took care of everything. Within no time it got successfully configured. As a welcome note, I received a welcome mail on my Yahoo and G mail accounts about the successful configuration. It was a unique feel as for the first time I was seeing my mail on a mobile set. While I was doing some other settings I received a mail from MS that @paulsb02 has sent me a gift and a link to see that !!. I had even the option to reply that.

WLAN

I have a wireless Broadband connection from BSNL. Within a minute it also got automatchandru021y configured. I just needed to put the Network key once. The speed of the net is awesome. In this huge cold in Chandigarh, I felt like heaven commenting on MS posts being inside a quilt and with great speed of submission.

KEYBOARD

The Ergonomics is a great feel good and it`s a true cakewalk using the FULL QWERT pad. Initially I was little uncomfortable but in few days my typing speed on this keypad is at par with my laptop keypad. It, like a computer consists of a `Ctrl` key `Space` `backspace` and some more specific keys which are very handy. Also if I long press the space barthe LED Flashlight becomes ON and it`s too powerful flash. The backlighton this keypad is satisfactory.

PHONEBOOK

It`s a phone where a normal feature like the Phonebook itself is so impressive. I have created many contact groups with specific ringtones attached to it. I have added videos to some of the contacts and individual ringtone. I just downloaded the Airtel Theme song from Youtube and the set converted it into the ringtone with the highest quality.

It also has option for setting preference to Incoming calls like `Receive only Phonebook contacts` or receive all or blacklist some number.

The sound reception is loud and clear, be it through the earpiece or through the Loudspeaker... no interference and the best quality. The Vibration is strong.

MESSAGING

It`s an another plus on this phone. Due to the QWERT keypad it`s much fast to type. Audio message can be attached as a MMS( I record my own voice at times and send). Sending a message to many is so easy. On Makar Sankranti a sent a message to 367 contacts in one go. SMS pack toh poora vasool kar leta hun. I keep sending customtakeoutized `I Love you` message to my wife in no time and she thinks I spend a lot of time typing it . Wish, she doesnot read this review...lol.

MUSICPLAYER

Another plus.Stereo Widening and Five equalisers create an effect that I feel the sound is coming from a bigger music player. I keep my music player on as multitasking is effective here. I keep my Opera Mini for MS on and at the background this wonderful music on. I have many wonderful tracks through the OVI application which I got free while purchasing.

CAMERA

It has a 2MP camera with powerful LED flash. I took a photo of a room heater in my office with all lights off and have attached it here. It has self portrait mirrorwhich is accurate. There are some useful setting like the zoom and modes.

Video camera is decent too. Shall attach a video soon.

APPLICATIONS

The OVI application(Nokia`s own apps store) has an ocean of applications. I picked `NetQuin` apps which keeps my system at a brand new state., the Kasperky trial edition antivirus, the Opera Minithrough which I have mind blowing Internet surfing... fully satisfied(5/5), the Skype through which I do net calls free of cost., the Google map is so good.

ORGANIZER

The Calender application is effective and easy to use for creating Memo,to dos and some other useful entries. It`s now ensured that I never miss any event and wishing for birthday etc. The User Interface is very effective for all the applications.

Miscellaneous

Battery life good, considering an average of four hours on MS, one hours on other websites and the push mail and good amount of calls, I need to charge it just once in a day.

The FM Radio is good.

The Quick office has MS word, Excel and Powerpoint and had an Adobe reader too.

I can send my customtakeoutised SMS on rejecting a call.

As a modem the set works reasonably good.

The Light sensorensures power saving and enough illumination in a bright sun also.

You know, it all got typed on my very own Nokia E63. Congratulations to me...lol

I am sure that this set will not be obsolete for many years to come.
