Nokia E7

Nokia's ambitious Symbian 3 device is coming soon. The first Symbian 3 device in the E series. This is touchscreen sliding qwerty phone like the Nokia n97 but purely business class phone and I would say this one is simply superb.

It's design is similar to the Nokia N8. Even the casing will be so much familiar as in N8. It has 4 inch AMOLED capacitative display. Has a resolution of 640x360 pixel, a little low in today's smartphone world with an Aspect ration of 16:9 nHD. This phone runs on the ARM 680 MHz CPU. I should say that Nokia must seriously consider it's position in the smartphone market.

Now it's the age of dual core chipsets and all delivering even glasses free 3D in phone. But Nokia delivering only a 680MHz processor in one of it's premier phones is a little disappointing actually. This phone has HDMI port also. The sliding qwerty is really superb.

With the keys arranged separately with a lot of space in between makes it easy for us to type. This one has an 8MP camera with dual LED flash. Well as it should have there is always the usual things like the Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G etc. I would say that the only notable difference from N8 and this one is that the 12MP camera with Xenon Flash has been reduced down to 8MP camera with dual LED flash.

Also with the flexible and new Symbian 3 OS, we could everything that we did in Nokia N8.

The phone was supposed to arrive in January 2011. But it didn't. Now the phone has been listed at the Indian retailer site Infibeam for 30,000 Rs as coming soon. Stay tuned for more updates.
