Video: Nokia E61i unboxing video and size comparison with E61

In my opinion, one of the best devices Nokia (NYSE: NOK) has ever released. I’ve only had it for a week, but I can’t stop loving it:

Another huge N95 review

This time over at GSM Arena.

Conclusion:

Till today I have never had the courage to name any phone like the best one on the market with clear conscience. But Nokia (NYSE: NOK) N95 does deserve this label. It has no adequate competitors on the current mobile market: it is extremely rich in functions, has a comfortable and detailed user interface with plenty of settings, and on the top of it, it is a relatively light and compact.

The most notable drawback of Nokia N95 is its battery life.

Note: I only read the conclusion. Too many N95 reviews make Johny go insane.

Are you an optimist or a pessimist?

I am definitely, 110% pessimistic.

Taken from Charles’ blog:

Optimist:
Be happy with what we have accomplished.

Pessimist:
We can do better, no matter how good we have already done it.

We all know there will be a N95i and then a N96, N97 etc. It’s hard to like what you have in your hands since there will always be something there to tick you off.

Fake: N95 clone in black that sports touch screen too!

Nice job! It almost looks real and is a prelude to how awesome the N95 will look like in all black.

I’m crying right now. Remember that scene when they attack him with an ax and he is bleeding red battery acid all over the place?! Then he uses his little antenna to steal a few remote control airplanes to help him.

I need a kleenex :-(

Nokia to release a USA 3G device, looks like half a shoe

Engadget Mobile must be paying a guy to sit at fcc.gov and hit F5 every hour to try and find new content. They always get scoops like this. Apparently this device will have both 850 MHz and 1900 MHz 3G access. Doesn’t it look like something you put on your foot?

Ed finds a video of a guy using an E61i:

And a girl from Malaysia on Flickr who is a self proclaimed "E61i worshiper"

I can vouch for her feelings, the E61i really feels magical in your hand.

Main complaint: battery

He makes a valid point however, this is the start of a revolution. As much as I think the N95 is trying to do too much, in a few years time it will be a low end device.

Don’t you love our industry?
