Nokia E71 memory
Internal memory of the Nokia E71
The internal memory of the Nokia E71 counts 110MB. The memory is expandable with the use of a microSD/SDHC memory card. Standard included is a 2GB memory card offering more room to multimedia files. If 2GB is insufficient, you can purchase a memory card with a larger capacity, since the Nokia E71 supports memory cards up to 8GB. Memory cards are placed on the side of the Nokia E71 which makes it possible to switch the card without having to turn the mobile phone off.
Nokia E71 business phone
Microsoft Office support
Standard support for Microsoft Office files is not a superfluous luxury on a corporate mobile phone. Quickoffice is found in the menu, with which all Microsoft Office files can be opened or even created. The latter is not the case for all supporting Microsoft Office phones. In addition to Microsoft Office files, the Nokia E71 is also able to display Adobe PDF files. Viewing Excel files actually was the easiest to do. The monitor seems a tad too small for the other documents, which makes you have to scroll the whole time. However, opening and editing your files on the move has been made possible.
Nokia E71 Internet browser
HSDPA internet on the Nokia E71
The Nokia E71 supports HSDPA and Wi-Fi. This makes Internet available for the user at all times. Thanks to the HSDPA support, exploring the Internet is appealing too whilst on the road, since it offers a reasonable speed providing the network is actually able to handle the speed. The built-in Internet browser works fine, although the wide screen monitor is not always convenient for reproduction of the Internet pages.
Nokia E71 GPS receiver
GPS navigation on the Nokia E71
The built-in GPS receiver in combination with the Nokia Maps application can be used as navigation system. However, this does require purchasing a license beforehand. Finding the required satellites to stipulate the position takes a tad too long at times. Installing a different software program such as TomTom is also possible.

Nokia Lithium Polymer battery
The included 3.7V 1500mAh Lithium Polymer battery is able to last for a maximum of 410 hours standby and a talk-time of 10.5 hours. The standby time exceeded the expectation; I was able to keep the E71 standby for 5 days with average use. This battery is definitely stronger than I am used to from other Nokia mobile phones.
Nokia E71 software
Nokia PC Suite software
Nokia has included the well-known PC Suite software with the E71. This software offers copying files to and fro the Nokia E71, managing contacts, synchronizing the agenda and making back-ups, thus reducing chances of data loss. It is easy-to-use software, however, nothing new under the sun.
