Recently I found about this great show called The Gadget Show, a program all about tech airing on UK’s channel 5. This is a UK only TV program, making it out of reach for the rest of the world, luckily I’ve been able to watch it on Joost, but because it isn’t quite up to date with the latest shows I’ve missed their latest comparison where they put the iPhone 3G against the Nokia E71. The E71 managed to equal the iPhone 3G’s 4 out of 5 score on the Gadget Show.
At first glance you’d be more inclined to put the N96 or even the N95 8GB against the iPhone, but once you think about the E71’s stylish and thin looks, it indeed could be a rethinking and even better alternative to the slim and almost button-less iPhone 3G. What do you think? Are the E71 and iPhone 3G evenly matched?
I totally agree that the Nokai E71 are evenly matched.
I came from an iPhone that I used for 1+ years. I loved the large screen, but I couldn’t wait any longer for basic PIM functionality and a way to add document files to the phone.
Granted the screen on the E71 is half that of the iPhone, but it certainly makes up for it in the productivity department.
Thanks for the info.
