Nokia E50 Review - The Nokia E50 is an O.K. business phone with good business features, but has a couple flaws that owners of the phone have been able to bring to light lately.

The Nokia E50 isn’t a terrible phone, though. For a quadband Smartphone, it’s light and skinny. It’s a good phone for the business person who isn’t interested in having a cam, Mp3 player, and all the other features that come with an entertainment-type phone.

The business features are all there with the Nokia E50. It offers a great speakerphone, voice commands and dialing, functional e-mail support, internet browsing (quick downloads via EDGE), and also a helpful Microsoft document attachment viewer.

Connectivity options are all there: Bluetooth 2.0, USB, and infrared. There’s a good amount of internal memory to work with, over 70 MB in total. If you need more, there’s support for expansion memory cards.

The Symbian Series 60 backs the E50 and makes this phone a versatile business device.

There are a couple flaws that the E50 has that you should be aware of. Users have been complaining about the unchangeable font size - it’s small. The font size makes it difficult to use some of the advanced features - older users might especially have trouble with it. The Symbian interface, though very powerful, is somewhat prone to crashing.

Users have recommended the E60 over the E50, or perhaps a different business device like the Nokia 9500. You will get more business capability out of these phones, and probably a little less frustration.

Nokia 6315i Review - The Nokia 6315i is a CDMA clamshell with support for 1900/800 bands. The 6315i features EV-DO as well as 3G capability. The phone also has dual displays as well as a dedicated music player with controls on the front.

At a little under 100 grams, this phone is light compared to other models. Talk-time is average at around 4 hours and standby time is good at 10 days.

The dedicated music buttons will allow you to play, stop, re-wind, or fast forward the music conveniently from the outside of the phone, opening the phone is not necessary.

The main display is pretty nice at 176 x 220 pixels with support for 262k colors. The screen is perfect for viewing anything and everything. You can change the contrast and font, among other things.

The outside of the phone also supports a 96 x 96 resolution display with 65k colors. The screen will show you the current date, time, signal, and battery charge. When someone calls, it will also display the caller ID information.

The Nokia 6315i features an integrated 1.3 mega pixel camera with a 2x digital zoom. You can also record video clips at 15 fps, with sound. The picture quality is average, a bit fuzzy.

The camera itself has a lot more capabilities than other cameras. It has portrait and landscape modes, 3 different color effects, adjustable brightness and white balance, 3 shutter sounds to choose from, and a silent mode.

The Nokia 6315i also has Bluetooth and USB compatibility, a very easy to use speakerphone, and voice dialing.

There’s a decent amount of memory to work with, a little over 21 MB in total. If you need more space you can easily expand with a Micro SD card.
