For those people who own this Nokia E61i, I wanted to ask; is the phone too wide? I really like this phone but am concerned that it'll be too wide & uncomfortable to use it with only 1 hand (?). Please let me know.

      Re: battery life..
      Firstly i've had this phone now for a week, and i love a lot of things about it...
      Everything worked perfectly.. push email, meadia player, bluetooth, battery life was excellent etc...
      Except 1 problem i could only surf 1 or 2 pages on my wifi connection, then it would time out etc... So i googled it to see if anyone had any answers and i found that when i turned the wifi power saving option off the wifi worked perfectly, however my battery now only lasts 16-18hrs moderate use, and the phone feels hot, like it's squeezing every little bit of power out of the battery all the time.

      So i'm switching the wifi back onto 'Power Saving mode' and hopefully it'll be back to normal.

      Note: to get to power saving option
      Menu>Tools>Settings>Connection>Wireless LAN>(left soft button) Advanced Settings>(turn auto config off)>powersaving

      Hope that helps anyone with A: battery problem, or B: wifi problem.

      Dave

          If your battery isn't lasting you very long, try turning off WLAN scanning. I left mine on and the battery depleted faster than it does now that I have it off. Could be just my imagination though.

            I got this phone 2 month back, and i got 2 problems:

            1 - phone turns off by itself
            2 - battery lasts me half a day

            Could possibly be battery problem? phone turning off by itself maybe due to battery, and lasting me only half a day also. I am a moderate user, the usual, work blue tooth headset and SMS.

            HELP advice please :)
            Thanx
            L.

                Not a comment, but a question for the E61i users.
                I have read all the technical info from the readers, thanks.
                But! It's basic function is a phone, does it have a loud enough ringing volume?

                Thanks.

                  Hi Ayodele,

                  Thanks for your responce, I left out grey area not clarified.

                  Firstly, are the applications for Nokia N80 which I presently use; compatable with the E61i ?


                  Secondly, while viewing video clips and browsing the net, do you get borders around the screen ?

                  Thridly, could you confirm if the E61i use 330hz proccessor. I'd very much like to know if you expirence any lag while switching menus. Does it frezee during usage ?

                  Lastly, is the back cover made of metal ?

                  Thanks in anticipation.

                        Good phone. I use an E61 and may migrate to i. The only challange non availability of the camera features.

                        Please work on it and it will be the best phone in the world.

                        I love NOKIA!!!

                          @jaja, gsmarena recently got review of this phone. So u can find sample picture there, whice are taken by e61i. Look at homepage of gsmarena. But mine takes much better pic than what they posting in review. E61i's camera isn't best on low light.

                            @dinesh, mine email key works fine. And battary life is wowsam. I've p990i too. But this phone is greater than that. P1i's os is't good as s60 os. And web browser of e61i is best. And it is much better than 9500 (someone ask) cause it is new version than 9500. E61i's web browser has a mouce pointer like n93, whice moves by nevigation key, so for that web browsing is same like pc. And camera quality is same as n70 or nokia's usual 2 mega pixel camera. It has'nt flash. And it comes with a mono headset but with sterio headset sounds is good cause it's builtin media player is same as n93, also got extra bass option. This is the best mobile for browsing ever I've.

                                Hi Adetokunbo,

                                The sound quality from the phone and through the headset is awesome, quite unlike some other phones that produce better quality just through the headset. As for video clips, the E61i is also great in that regard. Personally, because I dislike both flip and slider phones, I'll settle for the E61i anytime and day. Besides, the extra feature the N95 has over this (eg HSPDA) doesn't matter to me 'cos of the limitations with the GSM networks in Nigeria for now.

                                        You can have a wallpaper image. I recommend 384x240 pixel size at 72dpi.
