Advantages: Lots of features, well built, qwerty keyboard

Disadvantages: occasional signal problems

I have now owned my E71 for four months and in that time I've gotten to know the phone very well. I'll start off by saying that the build quality of the phone is fantastic! It has survived so many drops and falls that I'm beginning to think it's indestructible.

Secondly it is very feature rich; it has all of the normal features of a mobile phone plus a focusing camera, GPS, a qwerty keyboard, a good sized screen, a very good battery life and a lot of good software pre-loaded.

Another useful feature which I occasionally take advantage of is the ability to access email from the phone, it wasn't a deal breaker for me, but for someone who might be considering a blackberry this is a good alternative.

The only flaw I have found so far is that the signal isn't always as strong as it should be, this is fairly well documented and if you put the following terms in a search engine you will find more information "E71 signal problems".

Summary: worth getting if you live in an area with a good signal
