Nokia E66 - get used to loving it

Our readers have been interested in Nokia E66 for a long time, as we can tell from the number of emails we received regarding the phone. As for me, after writing a review of N78 and 6220 Classic, I wasn’t all so enthusiastic about the handset; I thought that I am to write a simple and quick article, but I have greatly mistaken.

That’s because E66 is different. It’s not always good to be different nowadays, but E66 is not different that way. Instead it brings about something new and surprising into the wave of Finnish smartphones, in a way that results in a stylish and easy to use software. Of course those future users who haven’t seen a newer Symbian-based Nokia (like any of the two I have mentioned above), probably won’t even notice that E66 has in many ways a surprisingly new attitude towards the ideal situation of becoming the dream mobile communication device that is a great companion in the everyday life. (I think this sentence could get me instantly hired to Nokia’s marketing department. (And I have been instantly sent to the deepest parts of hell - translator’s comment)).

Probably the owner of XXL GSM has noticed the great interest towards the handset, as he has sent the first phone for an in-depth test and I have foolishly said that I will finish in two-three days and I kept it for more than a week, which is much more than the average testing period, even though my card has been living inside Samsung M620 for a day.

I would like to put it forward that the successor of E65 deserves maximum respect. N82 is nice stuff, N78 has a cool design, 6220 Classic is a fine piece too, but E66 is finally different than the others and – no matter you won’t observe this when looking at the specs – it’s a model that’s positioned a bit higher, it has more prestige. Why? This will turn out on the following pages…
