Windows Live Messenger added to Nokia E72
Posted: 20 November 2009
One of the latest handsets to be launched on the Vodafone network could be ideal for those who like to chat, if its creator's recent comments are anything to go by.
Nokia said this week that the E72 is now ready to communicate straight out of the box with full access to Windows Live Messenger.
As one of the most popular services of its type in the world, the Finnish company explained that it had linked the product to its own Messaging Chat application.
The Nokia Press Bulletin Board said the new software means "people worldwide can have multiple conversations simultaneously, change their status and personal messages".
It added that the service would also be available ...
Nokia E72 'made for messaging'
Posted: 16 November 2009
The Nokia E72 is designed to be ideal for messaging - whether for personal or business use - according to its manufacturer.
Vice-president of the handset manufacturer Ukko Lappalainen explains that the average person now spends five full working days each year responding to their emails.
The company's research suggests that this is well in advance of the time spent text messaging or speaking on voice phone calls.
As a result, the E72 - launched officially on November 16th - has been designed to enable email functionality similar to that experienced on a desktop computer.
With a full QWERTY keyboard, the handset also promises to enable easier interaction with chat-based software ...
Writer lists top three Nokias
Posted: 13 November 2009
One Nokia enthusiast has listed three of his all-time favourite devices and described how they came into his life.
Charged with the task of selecting these, the writer explained that the journey to make the final selection was a difficult one.
The Nokia Conversations contributor explained that the first of these to truly win him over was the 9210i Communicator that troubled some with its size but proved to be a great acquisition for him.
Next up was the Nokia E70, which despite having a rather "oddly-sized" screen, did have a screen that the expert suggested packed a real punch at the time thanks to its 352 x 416 pixel resolution.
Finally, the writer picked out a mode ...
Nokia E52 'steals N-series limelight'
Posted: 28 October 2009
The Nokia E52 is a handset that may be capable of stealing the limelight from the firm's other devices - if just for a moment, it has been noted.
Niall Magennis said in an article for Trusted Reviews this week that very often it is the likes of the N97 and N900 that take up the column inches, but this particular E-series model is also worthy of attention.
This is because the gadget looks like a simple candybar style option, but in fact carries the type of email and document editing functionality that might appeal to business users.
For this reason, Mr Magennis described the E52 as "a smartphone for those people who don't really want a smartphone", adding: "The fact that i ...

The upcoming Nokia N900 smartphone has continued to impress one specialist website.
Following an article for the same online news resource, which closely follows the latest devices and developments at the Finnish electronics firm, more features have been discussed which may interest consumers.
Nokia Conversations previously pointed out that the intuitive aspects of the N900 become more apparent the more they are played with, but added this week that there are some other facilities worthy of note.
In addition to a handy kickstand, the site highlighted the phone's web browser, which has an autofill option to take the pain out of repeatedly filling details on online forms and the ability t ...
Nokia 5530 'great for those who do not need 3G'
Posted: 21 October 2009
Nokia has added to its range of music-focussed touchscreen mobile phones with a device that one reviewer has singled out for praise.
Mobile Burn's Ricky Cadden looked at one of the latest budget models in the Finish manufacturer's line-up and explained that although it is lacking in 3G, it is overall a solid device.
He said the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic boasts "crystal clear" call quality, while the aesthetics of the model are "eye-pleasing" and feel good in the hand.
Mr Cadden concluded that, with "decent build quality" and a host of useful features, he was able to give the gadget a "highly recommended rating - provided you don't need 3G".

Nokia 5530 'the more affordable 5800'
Posted: 1 October 2009
The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic may be an affordable alternative to other more expensive touchscreen models, it has been asserted.
Frank Lewis explained in a review for Cnet this week that the manufacturer has tempted consumers in the past with models like the 5800, but some may have been put off by the cost of the handset.
He added that although services like GPS and 3G connectivity are missing from the 5530, it is currently one of the most affordable full-touchscreen mobiles on the market.
"The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is far from a perfect handset … But, given the phone's low price … we think the handset offers a good user experience for the money," Mr Lewis explained. ...
Nokia E55 'offers innovative text option'
Posted: 29 September 2009
Those shopping for new mobile phones with text messaging facilities may be interested in the comments featured in a new article.
Frank Lewis explained in a recent review for Cnet that Nokia's E55 is a device that will divide people with its innovative new keypad layout.
The handset uses each button to offer two separate alphabetical options, which the expert explained can be tricky to master, but works well with a little bit of practice.
However, he added it is not just this feature that makes the E55 worthy of consideration.
"It's also amazingly slim for a smartphone, has very long battery life and offers good messaging features, making it easy to recommend," Mr Lewi ...
Nokia Ovi Maps 'simple and useful'
Posted: 28 September 2009
Those considering Nokia's current range of smartphones may be tempted by the recent comments of one expert.
In an article discussing the Finnish manufacturer's Ovi Maps system, it was suggested the service is not only simple to use, it is also something that can be particularly handy for navigation.
Nokia Conversations contributor Charlie explained that this is something he learned during his time in Europe, but added that moving to the US has seen him lose access to the product due to poor support and coverage.
He recalled the easy set-up options and synchronisation facilities that link landmarks and other features together seamlessly.
"There is no doubting the geeky thri ...
Reviewer tests "no frills" Nokia business phone
Posted: 22 September 2009
The Nokia E52 is a device that could be of interest to professionals looking for a reliable business-focused mobile, it has been advised.
In an article for Mobile Burn this week, Russell Jeffries turned his attention to the Finnish manufacturer's new model and noted that the simplicity and practicality of the gadget could interest some buyers.
Attention was given to a numeric keypad that - although missing the full qwerty option of the E71 - was praised as "very easy to type with", while surfing the mobile internet using Wi-Fi and 3G was also said to be a pleasant experience.
This was partially due to the inclusion of an internal processing unit that operates at 600 MHz and &q ...
