Nokia E61 is one of the best Nokia phones I've ever used. Let's see.. I have used Nokia 3650, Nokia 6230 and Nokia N-Gage previously. I know exactly what Symbian OS good at and what do it lacked out and E61 is good one.
While E61 is using Symbian 60 3rd edition (which is first announced at Nokia N91 if i'm not mistaken), it is said by the users that E61 was one of the fastest Symbian smartphones available back then. For me, been using Treo 650 and Motorola Q, made me don't feel the E61 is not that fast. It's dual ARM9-220MHz CPU were nothing compared to Treo's Intel XScale 312MHz. But yes, it's still acceptable in some ways. E61 is bulky. Although it was slimmer than most of smartphones it is also wider all the way. The dimension itself is 118 x 70 x 14 mm. This UMTS phone also support up to 2GB max. Mini SD slot.
Come as a messaging based device, the keypad itself is very comfortable to use. There is enough space between every letter and has 'ctrl' button that could make things like copying and pasting text much easier. This phone is differ from its comrades N Series that specialized as Multimedia phone, but it doesn't mean E61 is lack of fun features. E61 is also one of the device that support BlackBerry Connect feature. I myself haven't used this feature coz' pull-mail feature is enough for me instead the 'exaggerate' PushMail. The screen is good. It has wide screen (320x240 px) and great 24 bit colour-depth (16 million) which made images displayed almost flawlessly. E61 also comes with built-in-wifi adapter. It could become very handy if you are mostly mobile like me plus if you installed 3rd party apps such as Mobitubia, you can stream youtube and download it files very easily. Adding Opera Mini as the browser, than you could browse anywhere in internet.
The other 3rd party applications that I used the most is PicoDrive, Handy Expense and Mobile DivX Player. This is where we will discuss the fun part. Pico Drive is a Sega Genesis Emulator. Yes you could play almost all Sega old-timer-games in with this phone. I play Streets of Rage, Shinobi Series, Sonic Series, and many more with this phone. Note that I use the qwerty wide layout as the button, not the joystick due to its durability. Handy Expense will be your expenses log book. It is simple to use this app plus it could also export our expenses to the CSV file. I use Mobile DivX Player to watch DivX movies of course. Besides the three apps above, I installed a few more apps to maximized the use of E61. There are plenty Java games, Bible Reader and also putty in my phone.
