Nokia E72 might be better than a BlackBerry

admin — Mon, 03 May 2010 11:25:49 +0000

BlackBerry phones are everywhere these days – they are ruling the smartphone market for sure. Very few phones equal the popularity of the BlackBerry phones – not even the iPhone. Sure, everyone and their cat these days has an iPhone, or wants one, but the iPhone really isn’t that good as a PDA. For one, it lacks a proper keyboard, and everything on it is proprietary – you can’t really customize it that much. But here’s a phone that could totally be a BlackBerry killer!

Enter the Nokia E72. Here’s a quick look at the reasons why the E72 could possibly outdo the BlackBerry.

Email features: This is one of the BlackBerry’s strong points and a large part of the reason why they sell so wqell. The Nokia E72 has very good Email capabilities as well, it may very well equal or maybe even surpass the BlackBerry’s Email features.

Battery Life: The E72 has very long battery life, even after a lot of use you only need to charge it once or twice a week. This is definitely an important aspect.

Good QWERTY Keyboard: The keypad of the Nokia is easier to use than the BlackBerry’s keyboards. The menu’s scrolling works better and is easier to use as well – these are two things BlackBerry phones fall short on.

Camera and sound: The Nokia E72 has a 5 megapixel camera, which is pretty impressive for a phone. The sound quality on the BlackBerry is still better though, but when’s the last time you bought a phone for the sake of sound quality?

Ironic, though, that very few people use phones for the purpose of calling people anymore… all the other features have taken over as the most important thing. They have become little miniature computers that must go with their owners everywhere they go. In that respect, both the BlackBerry and the Nokia E72 are very good phones.
