Nokia E71 Vs Blackberry Bold Vs HTC Touch Pro Vs Apple iPhone 3G

Phones manufacturers had made many kinds of phone, but among those phones, there are few of them which are smarter than the others. However, our fellows at the cnet has compiled a comparison test over four of the ’smartest smartphones’ available today. Please welcome the Nokia E71, Blackberry Bold 9000, HTC Touch Pro, and of course the Apple iPhone 3G. There will be side by side comparison under this post, so keep on reading, guys..

Depending on your needs, you may find some smart phones more useful than others. Take touchscreen phones such as the iPhone, for example — they’re excellent if you’re keen on a large screen for reading documents or watching videos, but not so great if you want to type out massive emails and aren’t used to using an onscreen keypad.

If the thought of fiddling around with a touchscreen sends shivers down your spine, don’t fear, because smartphones come in Qwerty keypad flavours too. While some prefer a large slide-out keypad that hides beneath a screen, others might enjoy the simplicity of a keypad on the front of the phone, right underneath the screen.

Keypads and screens aside, it’s a smart phone’s insides that give it its ’smart’ title and these days you can get almost everything you’d find in a laptop crammed into a tiny little phone. If it’s the Internet you’re after, keep an eye out for Wi-Fi and HSPDA (3.5G), and GPS if you’re planning on getting lost during your business travels.

Depending on your email needs, it’s always worth checking out whether the smart phone you’re about to buy is compatible with the office’s email system. It’s also worth looking at what documents the phone lets you view and edit, as some don’t support Microsoft documents, which may be annoying if you like to work on the go.

Review summary

We’ve been year-
ning for a phone
with a Qwerty
keypad that looks
good and works like
it should, and here it
is. The Nokia E71
exceeded our
expectations and is
a great example of
Nokia’s ability to
combine ease of use
with attractive
design. While we
don’t like the
camera, we think
the rest is pretty
close to perfect

Unlike Palm, RIM has
built up an impressive
product portfolio that
is made even better
by the addition of the
Bold. Aside from
offering a plethora of
features, the Bold’s
screen is one of the
best we’ve ever seen

This is HTC doing
what it does well.
The Touch Pro is
another fully
featured smart
phone that deals
with email and
text editing well. Our only disappointments
are that the
TouchFLO 3D
interface can be
slow at times and
it isn’t as big an
upgrade as we
expected from the
TyTN II

Apple has taken
the iPhone to the
next level and
added some truly
mouth-watering
features. 3G is
lightning fast
compared to
EDGE, and GPS
means you’ll never
get lost again. You
still can’t send
MMS and there’s
only a 2-megapixel
camera, which may
annoy you, but
overall it’s a
wonderful
experience

    When I wanted to buy a new smart phone, i did a thorough research on a number of mobiles and finally zeroed on two, the E71 and I-Phone. E71 scored over a lot over the I-phone. I-Phone cannot be termed as a business phone. I-Phone a wonderful piece of device, but lacks a number of business features that are present in the E71. I settled for E71 and no regrets. I have the best phone in hand and is quite user friendly. Cheers to Nokia !

    hmmm…make sense… the E71 won three awards lately, one of them is from WIRED, as the phone of the year :) It is indeed a great handset.

    Yeah the E71 is a great phone and is loaded with features. I was doubtful whether to buy a blackberry or the E71. I am now thoroughly convinced and will go with the latter.
