  2. Not up to the mark headphones quality
  3. Crappy charger, pins gets disconnected with the minor touch
  4. Plastic body not the metal one like its predator E71
  5. Very short length of USB data cable
[BREAK=Conclusion]

It is available for Rs 11,099 at mobile store with free Reebok bag, parker pen and Aircel Sim and for Rs 10,950 at Nokia priority center with free Reebok bag and have warranty extension scheme by 1 year for Rs 1414.

At this price this is the best qwerty keypad business class phone available in market till date. It is for those who are new to this kinda phone and wanna give a try. If budget can be increased to 15k then I would suggest Nokia E71. But for this price it is a value for money phone.
I'll rate it 9/10.
 
good job there. i was looking to buy it but then bought 5800 instead. and now i m really pissed . i dont like it anymore. one thing is for sure s60v3 symbian os is way better than v5 which is in 5800. i shud have bought e63. now the damage is done.
 
^^In that case i would suggest u to sell it and take this one as it is really amazing. :D

Plz rate this review and gimme some suggestions too.
 
^^U can check pics on the page - unboxing

Dude, it's the stripped down of the E71, which retails at around 15K.
Also, apart from the Pros & Cons, I don't see a 'feature' review of the product.

Ohh actually I wrote all features in pros page. Will take care of that.
Thanks a lot for ur valuable suggestion.

Explaining them is what I meant, as opposed simply listing them.
Anyway, this is only your first review. I'm sure you'll write more comprehensive ones in the future.

Good luck!
 
Page 6. For 15k its E71 not E72 if im not mistaken.
Decent job on the review. A more comprehensive review based on long term useage would be better.
Listing each applications performance and useability would also be useful.

Edit: i went back to check if i was writing the right thing...lol
Black was the correction.

Cheers!

Corrected that too. Thx a ton mate.
 
Even I have one and its really VFM.............But the latest firmware has made the phone worse........Hope Nokia replaces this buggy firmware soon.........v100 was rock solid and the best.
 
Nice effort there but try to explain/comment its features not just specifications and accessories. Why you are asking for ratings? If people think your work deserve, they will automatically rate. This is your first review only so take care in future.

He's just asking for ratings, not good ones. :eek:hyeah:
 
I almost ended buying this phone for the WiFi, but after finding out that there is no GPS(big fan of it :p ) I dropped it. Great build quality and absolutely total VFM! Regarding the review, you should have posted what are the features you were expecting/you use and how you find it. If possible you should try out the mobile for a month and then post "30-days review of E63" :D
 
Have been using the phone since 6 months, it has some really nice features, especially the browsing is a breeze with Opera et all. The bundled office suite comes in handy.

However stability wise, it loses points. I have the latest firmware and I need to re-start the phone atleast once a day, random hanging. Especially when you call up someone, and the other person disconnects.. I think Symbian has reached its end now, and Nokia should either move on to Android, or Win Mobile. You have to give Apple the credit here, their mobile OS is by far the most stable I have ever come across...
