I leave the E61i feeling a bit like it was a great meal but my utinsels were dirty the whole time. The device itself was great. It crashed once, and other than that was very rock solid. I could overlook some of the UI items such as looking for wireless settings and finding multiple ways to get there. But it was the feel of the device that leaves a bad taste in my mouth. The function, navigation, and thumbboard keys made this device feel a lot worse than it is. That being said, I would recommend it, especially if you aren't in a BlackBerry shop and are looking for something a bit less PDA-ish than a Treo or Windows Mobile device. The battery life and included applications make the E61i a much better showing in the smarpthone communicator field; doing a better job overall, but also showing where some other devices are better.

The E61i is a minor and mostly cosmetic upgrade to the E61, but it remains a fantastic smart phone overall.

Now business users, and the operators and carriers that serve them, can demand a new standard of business devices combining both beauty and brains without compromise, and that is what the E61i delivers. With its latest handset Nokia has made it intuitive and pleasurable for business professionals to get mobilised. But while it probably won’t appeal greatly to the current E61 crowd - unless you’re looking to upgrade for the camera feature - it should attract a new group of users who not only want a phone for work but also leisure.

This device is a wonder of engineering. Congrats Nokia! Detailed review in gsmarena tells all I wanted to say... with every little detail. Just a little bit disappointed with the alarm, as one cannot set it to repeat. This is easily fixed with additional software though. It lacks better camera and integrated gps, but it would probably become very expensive with them.

The E61i looks like a modern device; by this I mean that in the looks and design department, it now compares favourably to the keyboard based Palm Treos and Blackberrys of the business world. This is important, because while Nokia may well be regarded as a leading manufacturer in Europe and Asia, the same isn’t true in America. Couple this with Nokia's perceived lack of enterprise experience, and it's a good thing that the design does measure up (and in some cases surpasses) the incumbent enterprise devices.

Bottom Line: Just a quick pre-qual. I am not a newbie to mobile computing. I've had my fair share from luggable PC's to untethered PDAs to a Newton, then a host of Palm's including Treos. This is one of the first cell phone centric devices that are starting to be quality connected mobile device. It feels like I am extending my connectivity wherever I am PLUS it gives me tools that I don't want or need on my computer (like GPS). As more and more rich Java apps are being written for mobile devices the large screen that the E61i sports is really impressive.

So getting back to that itching question of all you E61 owners – should I swap mine of E61i or not, we guess that you’ve already found your answer when you bought your Nokia messenger without a camera. The E61i surely offers some really nice upgrades over E61, but considering the probable cost of dumping your used E61 and getting the E61i really doesn’t makes sense.

Nokia ups the ante with a welcome refresh to last year's well-liked E62 smartphone.

The E61 is the pinnacle of the range and is a worthy contender for anyone seeking a push-email device. With its rock-solid build quality and fabulous styling, it's a smartphone you'll never be ashamed to be seen with during business meetings. All this, along with the impressive choice of email clients, makes the E61 not just equal to the other contenders in the market but, in many ways, superior.

Nokia have produced a phone of exceptional build quality which is worthy of the boardroom. Unlike so many so called business phones the materials used feel great and seem to be both hardwearing and yet attractive. The feature set is all we could have asked for, there are the toys like an MP3 player but it's all about connectivity, email and attachments. Combined with a strong battery and good radio performance it is easily better than any Blackberry and a real challenger for the Treo Smartphones.
