well iam using this fone for the last 3 months. frankly this fone has a few flaws,,but it is undoubtedly one of the best in the n series.... i have recently bought an n80,n93,n91 and n72 for my family members but the n71 is a class apart. it is only overpowered by the n93 which is ok bcoz of the major price difference.
the flaws are as follow's :
1:it get's badly scratched in a month's time. i had a scratch guard on and when i tried to replace the scratch guard it came out in 3 pieces.
2:sms outgoing or reading is slow.
as for the other complaints i dont have any problem in my fone atleast.
(a major flaw is that just like the n90 it has very very poor resale value in india and is a failure model)
i would give it a rating of 8.5/10

Greetings everyone! I have just bought N71. It's a nice, solid phone and I like it a lot. Only problem is, the reception isn't very good as compared with my other Nokias. I have in my "fleet", N70, 6681, 6680, 6270, 3230 and 6260. On my 6680, I have at least 3 or 4 bars of service coverage while on the N71, I get nothing. Kinda frustrating as I had to get out of the house to get some reception! I have yet to set the GPRS and MMS on this phone.
The plus side is the large screen which I love and the sharpness. I give it an 8 out of 10.

This phone is perfect! The main problem is the scratches on the screen made by the numeric keyboard! Someone said that there is a problem in the memory of the phone being used up when you install (even uninstall) anything and it made the phone hang all the time...
Yes, there is a "memory eating" problem! But there is the best solution and I did that on my phone and worked perfectly!!! First of all, you have to backup all you data! Everything you need! (Photos, contacts, sounds, applications etc).Then you type *#7370# This reformats completely the C: drive. All applications and files stored on this drive will be lost and clean default files will be rewritten. The phone will ask you a confirmation and you will have to enter the security code (12345 by default). So, your phone will be exactly as when the first time you bought it!

I agree with Iaid!
Nokia N71 has same problem with SMS, like N73. This problem is in almost all N-Series phones.
The display makes big headache! Stupid buttons scratch it after two days! After 2 months, on that place, where was small scrachy, ther appers big, ugly scratch. So think twice when buying this "unfinished" phone.
