Nokia E65 review from Australia
"Stylish and feature packed"
What things have gone wrong with the mobile phone?
Phone made buzzing noise when vibrating.
Replaced by Nokia, this time the voice quality on the device was rubbish. It sounded very muffled.
Replaced again and working fine, till a few weeks ago when the speaker is making a buzzing noise when on a call. Sounds like the speaker is loose. Need to fix it under warranty.
General comments?
Very feature packed phone. Nice and slim with a sleek design. Symbian took a little getting used to, but is very feature rich and highly customizable.
The E65 has much better battery life than my friends N95 (whose is constantly plugged into his car charger). This is (I think) due to the slower cpu found inside. This makes for very slow menu and internet browsing, even when on wifi. It does however play divx videos very well; the divx player is installed. It worked well as a personal video player to watch movies until I bought a iPod touch.
Camera is nothing special compared to most new phones, and the fact that they didn't bother with a flash is even worse. It does however record video very well.
If this phone was faster and included GPS, it would be perfect!
