We've seen spy shots and official shots of Nokia's new E63 handset, but nothing quite makes our day like unboxing shots of a fresh new device (even if it's a pre-production unit), and the folks at the TamsS60 blog have thankfully come through on that front, and offered a few impressions of the phone for good measure. Of particular note, they say that the E63's keyboard layout is "a lot less annoying" than the one on the E71, and the "weird type of rubber" used apparently feels better to the touch as well. Anyone looking to ditch their E71 should also be aware that those changes affect the size of the device, so you're out of luck if you were hoping to hang onto your E71's case. Hit up the link below for some more pics, and keep an eye on the site for a full review that's promised soon.
I smell manure... must be another MOTO RAZR unboxin...
Nokia!?
my sincerest apologies, that was uncalled for...
as the old adage goes, "Don't judge a book by its cover!"
(I should only make such crass statements after 30 seconds of a youtube demo...comparing it the the mighty iPhone!!!!)
I LOW RANK THEE !!!!!!!
Congratulations iEye! You're well on your way to becoming the next clak or phanbouy!
A bit of a new style with the nonsequeteur random incoherent babble and missing words, but funny and argumentative nonetheless!
Do you sleep with your iPhone? do you fondel it night and day? Sick.
Dude what's wrong with phanbouy? Most of his posts are funny :\
And I'm willing to bet that Clack = iEye..
I would like to rebuke the notion that Clack = iEye...
...we are indeed separate entities...
You just HAD to lose any kind of credibility by comparing this phone with the iPhone, didn't you?
I mean, it's a E63... it's not even a competitor for the iPhone! :-P
tpadekar, you're right. It is a dominator.
Im so fuckin sick of iEye. If he doesnt STFU, im going to find his a$$ and punch him in the iEye. I'm embarrassed to say i own any apple products with this dumbass around. He probably doesnt even own any apple products, he just hates windows and apple, and likes to use linux.......
'i'ts funny you trolls now think im iEye, Clak, Clack, steve handjobs, steve jobs, phanbouy etc
'i' am Ocean and nobody else lol
hey look its got really sharp corners!!!
its the thing just below your nose that is full of it
looks cool.
Sarcasm on:
mmm.... strange bluish tinge... nice....
another "I've seen it somewhere" phone from nokia for today.
I actually had it yesterday but only allowed to talk about it today! :)

'i' dont think it need so many buttons, needs a touch screen
Well great.. if you think that go get another iPhone..
Leave these toys to the real business men..
My post was obviously to the guy above -_-
you must be new here...
(((((shields))))))
'i' did i got an iphone 3g to replace my edge version.
Crackberry killer!
Wow I thought I was being a prick engadget troll with my occasional anti QVGA posts. But man, iEye has me beat by far.
With a stick I hope.
With a low-res stick I hope.
I think you need to get a life.
Supposed to be response to clak..
Have you????????????????????????????????????????
we had this phone for a few months now, its pretty good and solid, and most people are attrcted to it. I dont like the menu that much, I think it needs to be more flashy. On the other hand its bug free in comparison to my BLackberry bold which it getting worst and worst since we received it a couple of month ago..
You've had this phone for a few months even though it hasn't been released?
I work for a Mobile Operator so we get early homologation samples
Hmm. So I've had a WinMo phone, a Blackberry, and often used my Wife's iPhone. My current job loves Nokias, and I've got an E61i. I really dislike the Symbian OS compared to all other options. It's slow, and clunky. Granted, I can run putty and other cool apps, but it makes the iPhone & WinMo look fast.
For work use, I'd probably use a Blackberry over anything else. I can write an email on a Blackberry almost as quickly and easily as using Outlook. If I just was using it for personal use, the iPhone kicks all a** for Web browsing and the like. I can't see a happy-medium situation where I'd want the E61i - So I'm hoping this E63i is much improved.
The hardware is slow, not the phone. Nokia's newer smartphones are a lot faster.
Does anyone actually care about the release of this phone?
Considering Nokia's dominance of the smartphone and wider cell phone market, I'd think the answer to that question is a resounding "yes".
Hey i love my E71, it aint going nowhere.
Ok, lets talk some sense now please....
What's so 'irritating' about the E71 keyboard?
I've got one and love the keyboard, its better than E61/E61i was (I had them so I know)
And anyone know where Nokia's going with their model numbers?
E61 then E71 then E63?
