As much as a lot of people would like it, currently there is no word on a non camera variant!

I really loved the design of both of these phones, mainly because both of them are similar in make to E51. But I was hoping they would release a non camera and camera version of E71 at the same time or the non camera version before the camera version as they did with the E61. Sadly they havent and there is no talk about them releasing a non camera version too which is very sad. I would have loved to get a non-camera version of E71.

Any idea if they are releasing a non-camera version of E71?

Dear Sir,

Before its release, I was determined to buy it. But now, after going through the reviews and opinions, I am rather reluctant to jump for it. Still, the phone is a gem. So planning to buy one, but not at the initial high price! I ll wait for a while for the price to come down at a reasonable level. And kindly suggest the reasonable price of this device in Indian currency! Your opinion is so important for me. Thanks a lot in advance.

Ish Puneet, These won’t exactly be mid segment. More around what the N82 sells for.

Ravindra, there will always be three or four basic desings around which devices will be build. A candybar is a candybar and there’r very little design changes you can do. Plus experimenting too much is just not worth it, more moving parts can lead to poor build and Nokia certainly don’t want that.

As far as Nseries sliders go, if people want big screens on their mobile devices thats the best solution for giving it to them while keeping the phone’s size manageable. So its not so much the form factors but what they do with them… N congrats on winning the 8GB!

I also love these gorgeous beauties,But one thing that is troubling my mind is Why Nokia keeps on producing Exactly the same Design flow almost for about 3 generations?E71 is a replica of E61,though it comes with some Improvements and E66 is also resembling the E65.Are the running out of new Designs or is that the result of user choice?N95,N96 and the recent rumored dual slider same story………..

Both the phones look really good.

Few good phones being rolled out in E series when i think so that the N series is not keeping up the pace.

Good buy in the mid-range segment. I think the N series phones in this segment would loose out to these maybe even the N81.

I personally like the look of the E71 the Grey one.
