I am also wondering what nokia was thinking.. E61i is too big maybe?

I doubt typing will be done easily as it was on E61i, but better not judge too quick. Better just wait till more photos come, or the actual device to come out.

Just when I got the Motorola Q9h and was thinking that Nokia should redesign the E61i into something sleeker, smaller and more even with thickness dimensions ... they deliver!

WICKED!~

me seems it has almost the same size as e61 or e61i, so why should they put a smaller screen then on it? i tried to measure it and compare it with he hand on the pic

It's 13mm less wide than the E61i - which I'd call a HUGE difference in reality.

if thats really so smaller, it ill be a pain to type on it and the smaller screen is also a big minus then... semms the newer e series fones wont be rather a step back then, if it come to design.

Yes i agree, but i think that photos can have an optical illusions on us sometimes. More photos, or better seeing phone live should conclude it.

if they made the screen really smaller, thats crap imo... and step back... e61 and e61i size are more then ok for comfy usage. maybe nokia wanted to make it more compact, but if the price for it is the smaller screen and that small keypad, it was a mistake imo

Screen is too small imo. 2.36 inches doesnt cut it for me.

I need at least 2.6 inches, I wish they had kept the same size as E61i.

I second both of you guys.. but are those measures official?

E71 would be a perfect phone if it kept the E61i`s form factor / size. Also screen and keys for comfortable typing. Some info says that it may also come in Q1! I guess my E90`s future isn`t certain

Hi all

It is no secret that i consider the E61/E61i to be one of the best Buisness smart phones ever and definitely one of my all time favourites, as nice as this looks the reduction in screen size and Bav it was definitely 2.8" and the keys being that much smaller really are a turn off for me.

Why couldn't they of just left it as it was changed the colour scheme and added these things to the spec and then i would of been really happy, the much smaller screen and keys all to have a smaller device really has ruined it for me. Blast you Nokia when you make something perfect don't try and improve it as it rarely works, a very disappointed and upset Dogmann.

Marc

Dogman i know E61 was 2.8 inches, I was just saying 2.6 is the minimum i would accept but they should have left it like it was in the E61. Maybe it will still be nice for watching videos as its not a normal shaped 2.4 inch screen.

It does look like a 2.8 inch screen, it looks like the measurements are here wrong. It seems the screen has too much information on it to be a 2.4 inch, plus it has to fit in gps etc. 2.8 inch would be much better. Nice phone, reminds of the iPhone with the black colour and silver trim.

It looks like Nokia wants to make e61i sleek compact and good looking business device.I'm sure it will bring in new customers who r focused on looks of the phone and who need sleek and lightweight device.But those used to e61i screen might not find it better due to sceen size reduction.and space in between keypads.

The above device is to be expected to be annnounced arnd 3gsm
