Nokia E65
Design
The company issued a Nokia device, which combines excellent business functionality and excellent design. We have to tests proved brown changed E65, which is corpus reminds series phones Nokia L’Amour: the same brown plastic, leather box on the battery compartment lid. This is perfectly in harmony with the magnificence of metal keyboard and front panels, side and function keys. In addition, the device is lightweight (115 g), rests comfortably in the hand and the consumer is perceived primarily as a functional stylish phone, but not a business smartphone. The vast majority of those surveyed rated excellent ergonomics and attractive appearance novelties. “My favorite size, not thin, not much” - rightly observed one respondent. Dimensions phone (105 × 49 × 15.5 mm) really be ideal for many people.
As has been said, and the front panel keyboard E65 metal, the two grooved, so metal texture visible even the naked eye. The decision pleases until the new machine, but after a while may be traces of ground halved at the close / slider disclosure. Many believe this shortcoming minimis or not notice at all. But E65 - a device in which impeccable style is important, so even the most minor flaws appearance is kept in mind.
Digital keyboard worthy of the most widely entries. She performed intact unit, which consists of large plastic keys that are so convenient. Hits clear and soft.
In the bowels slider wears only keyboard block. At the same time, is replete with front panel function keys. In addition to traditional Symbian smartphones-button is dedicated keys conference calling, switching off the microphone, access to a list of contacts and adjustable. On the right end of a crowded block, another buttons. Above are the only keys for volume, and “Edit Recorder” at the level of corps that, given their small size, are not always convenient. Edit is used quite frequently (copying text and other functions), with about half of “blind” are pressing the button voice recorder or both buttons at once.
Additional keys on the front panel were required to show the E65 at a time of other companies and Bugs, despite its stylish look, it is positioned as a business smartphone E-series. Pressing conference call allows making calls to pre-select group of subscribers and the necessary set of address book. The button to switch off the microphone is used mainly in conference mode, but may be needed in traditional call, for example, if the wind noise or hear the other person is prevented. The selected key is the address book will make it easy and convenient to carry calls, as well as access contacts quickly during the call. It may assign any function or launch applications.
Normal user’s buttons may seem odd and even hinder. The first time the author of this article persistently pressed keys conference and address book instead of the left and right soft keys. At the same time pressing soft buttons located on the top of the convex contour quite comfortable and is not associated with the inconvenience. Recently, however, appear while you click Clear menus and buttons, which are less convex and smaller adjacent keys. It is expected that the owner of E65 will be great to press their finger, so have to use the buttons very carefully, with negligent click easily hurt “neighbors”.
Also on the front panel is the voice earpiece and light sensor, which regulates the intensity of illumination of the display and keyboard, but sometimes does so with a very very late. Keys highlighted unobtrusive white light. Side block keyboard is not illuminated.
The quality of the display remarkable. The same applies to the color and angles, and behavior in the sun. Manufacturer carefully stuck to traditional film, which is not hampered and never cling, so long may serve as display excellent protection against scratches. The screen is quite large in size (2.4 “), so permission to 416 × 352, it would be more appropriate, but the majority will be enough QVGA.
As set business models, E65 has the IR port, which is hidden under the black inset in the lower-hand edge. There is also a connector interface.
Slider with a characteristic clicking disclosed that the majority of those interviewed seemed pleasant, which highlights the metal parts. Luft between halves is minimal; it is the very existence of its form factor.
In addition to the documentation kit, CD-ROM, wire mono, ZU and USB cable, you can find stylish fabric bag. The latter seems protect against scratches, unless, of course, the target audience deems appropriate image accessory apparatus.
Menu
E65 is working on the third edition S60 platform and denied recent service packs. That is, there is no full dictaphone, a new Web browser, new types of menu, etc. Of merits mention a new utility for the work-in Wi-Fi networks, a program for local search and annex Nokia Team. Manufacturer found in the E65 office package Quick Office version 3.8.5, which works worse than the traditional office suite E-series established by the E60 and E70.
Changes touched and Active Standby Mode, which “learned” to notify about missed calls, unread messages, messages, voice mail, etc. (user-configurable), as well as built-Silas manager of wireless LAN. The latter is very easy to enabling and disabling Wi-Fi transmitters and annex WLAN wizard caused by pressing the strings in WLAN Active Standby allows to connect to Wi-Fi networks without the need to create access point configured connection.
