Title of review the E series
What are the strengths? It's a Nokia. It's a great phone. It's a great push email provider. And you can surf the web. Bluetooth makes car use easy. Screen is a generous size with stunning color. the size and style are both really nice and compliment each other. The E61 comes with the latest edition Symbian mobile operating system, which is reliable and has an attractive, intuitive user interface. As a result of Nokia's co-operation with Microsoft during 2005, the E61 will also sync with Outlook seamlessly which is a big plus for corporate users.
What are the weaknesses? the keyboard may not be to everyone's taste. Battery life may be an issue. it hang ups sometimes and then restarts. it has low Memory errors.
Summary im happy with the sound which is loud and clear, i like the color, it is extremely handy. the signal it mega user friendly and it is so easy to write text messages. i would say it is a nice easy simple phone.

Title of review Small pc
What are the strengths? I feel like i am carrying a small pc in my hand or a tv for that matter. I cant believe the features it has. The camera is unbelievable, you have to take my word for it. Very durable and reliable. This phone will last as long as you want it to. The quality is top end. Emails are easy to read and attachments can be readily accessed.
What are the weaknesses? Nothing.
Summary Will turn heads wherever you are. Everyone from my dad to my little sister loves this phone. Battery is very long lasting. This gives all the other phones in its category a serious run for their money. Nokia's E61 supports multiple push email software systems . The screen is gorgeous with 16 million colors and an ambiant light sensor that adjusts brightness automatically

Title of review wow
What are the strengths? where do i start?with a wide screen and a high resolution display it is one of the hottest pieces in the market.a unique design .a high quality built ensures that the phone is long lasting.
What are the weaknesses?
Summary apart from superb voice clarity and reception the most wonderful feature of this cell is that you can send and recieve emails while making a call. you are also able to recive time sensitive information. all other feaures like powerpoint, excel etc make up for a great phone with everything you could possibly need. i would rank it a ten on ten for its functionality and utility.

Title of review A plethora of colors
What are the strengths? This phone has a nice wide screen which gives such brightness of colors that it leaves one dazzled. E61 supports external memory cards and itself boasts of 75 MB memory. It has a dictaphone, MMS, Bluetooth, Infrared and EDGE technology.
What are the weaknesses? The keys are placed a little too close by for confortable use of the keypad. No MP3 and FM. surprisingly the phone also does not have a camera and so obviously no video recording too.
Summary This phone is like a bundle of contradictions. It has a lot of entra functions and technologies like EDGE, WAP, Email, GPRS, Bluetooth etc, but then one discovers that there is no camera or video recoding with it. The lack of MP3 and FM Radio is a big downer. Battery life is passable but the color screen is fantastic.
