    Nokia E63 review

Nokia E63

By Maggie Holland, 20 Apr 2009

Rating: $rating

Is the latest smartphone in Nokia's Eseries a business force to be reckoned with?

The camera is a lowly 2 megapixels, although photo quality is reasonable for a basic phone-based snapper. And, to be fair, it’s unlikely that anyone will be purchasing the Nokia E63 specifically for its camera prowess. It’s also important to remember that the iPhone’s camera spec isn’t that magnificent but that hasn’t put people off buying it.

When you compare the E63’s camera specs to the E71, which had a 3.2 megapixel snapper, it does make you wonder why it fell by the wayside but it’s something business users are likely to be happy without for the sake of the rest of the package.

RealPlayer is the preloaded media player, making the E63 quite capable of playing a film to a high enough standard to watch as entertainment in between meetings, on a plane, train or just an out-of-work scenario altogether.

All in all, it’s clearly the E63 is likely to be going after traditional BlackBerry fodder. It should definitely have some success, although those who’ve moved onwards and upwards to newer models without keyboards may not have their heads turned so easily.
