  • this is very good phone and i have 5 years this phone , but now dont work very good with swiching app

  • hi,i had the same problem.update the firmware with pc suite and put a memory card,then choose the messages and everything to store to the m.card :)

  • take the phone and throw away

  • maybe it depends on the user of the phone..my n71 is working perpectly im using it for 2yrs i dont have any problems with my n71..signal,lcd,sounds,graphics,keypad,microphon­e,camera are good and working perpectly.. Before i have this n71 i have n70 i trow my n70 away becouse of signal problem im only using it for 4 dyas..i bring it in the service center of nokia then they fix it..but just an hour ago signal problem again..then i take it back to the service center..the technician said i will get my n70 in 3days they have to test it..3day past i came back the technician said that my phone is fix ..but on my way home the signal problem again..then asual i take it back again at the service center..then technician says they will contact me when my n70 is fix..but 2weaks past they havent contact me so i decided to go to the service center..then they said that they are still testing it..then 2days past they contact me..they said that they cant fix it chance ur phone..that n70 is a a waste of time and money ..

  • I used this phone for 3 years, until now. I love all the features.

  • I have this phone for three years. I have a problem when searching for internet, it is giving a massage that: NOT ENOUGH MEMORY, what do i do with this problem.

  • This is one hell of a crap. it's a waste of money. I suggest you guys not to buy. I own a shop here in thailand and I sold this phone to many customers back in 2006 or 2007 i guess. There was a lot of return and complaints. just a couple of months usage and the unit is still under warranty, there are software issues. LCD issues, signal issues, reception issues and many others. So, we send it back to Nokia and Nokia says it has been repaired. So it worked fine for couple of months and after that, same problems occur. its crazy. about after its 1 year warranty. people come back to my shop and convince me to buy their N71s. Its crazy I won't buy this phone coz its a lot of headache even for the seconhand market. its really a lot of trouble. and very unstable. it's like a experimental phone of Nokia. Also the Nokia N73 faces the same issue. the most stable one is the Nokia N70 compared to its other siblings. trust it from me. i'm a phone dealer. as well as a secondhand phone dealer. DON'T BUY!

  • very cool phone..graphics,image,video,application,music,3g­ are great..im using this n71 phone for 2yrs and i have no problem using it:-)

  • What kind of problems are you facing in this phone, because I was thinking of buying it?

  • bad slide!!!!!!!!!!

  • ofcrose you can buy this phone it's a good phone and i am using it for 5 years and i have no trouble.

  • diz iz d worst ph dat i evr had! Lots n lots probs!

  • anyone have a body of this set

  • Well its been three years since i got my N71 and over the period of time its been wonderful. Its fully packed with features which all work fine. The only slight draw back is the screen getting scratched with the keypad. That can be taken care of with a screen protector. I love this phone.

  • this is one of the worst Nokia phones.it has good features but it's full of problems,mine it does not accept 4 giga (in the specs says: "up to 2 giga")instead of charging it ends the battery.his stracture is very bad,some pieces fell off

  • Why my n71 does not take photos it says hard ware failure restart camera

  • does anybody sell these ?

  • Very Bad No Good Features Most Apps Dont work Bad Camera WTF!!! Dont Buy :(( Lost My Money Just A Mess!!!!!!

  • can u have n 71

  • i've this phone, very rare, hey, anyone can tell me about N71 FW v4 ? or sharing with me on [email protected]

  • Yeah i got the same on my two N71. The guy in service center said that there is a problem with a cord connecting main part with the display flip part. After he replace it the problem is gone. And more of it, before phone has been fixed i try to use some 3rd party software and camra works fine with such software. I do not remember the name of the programm. More of it i was disappointed with nokia for N71 and 6290 models. They are so fragile. Both my N71 got scratchs on the screen from keypad, ocationally memory card removals, problems with a usb cable. And on 6290 cower of power supply broke after a month of usage.

  • i still have the same problem with my nokia

  • hi guys... i want to purchase n 71 ...can any one tell me that if this is a good thing to buy or not..can i go ahead and buy this set..thanks

  • i have a problem in my n71, is that my camera's hardware is gone

  • Wonderful Phone, But Ribbon (Fold Connection) Damage Is Still On Problem List. & No New Keypad To Buy.

  • Your battery needs to be replaced. Take it to your local Nokia dealer and they will replace it for free

  • My problem in my n71 is that the battery enlarge or it difformed, so in other words my n71 is not flat anymore like its used to be... can anyone help me with my problem..

  • was a waste of good money,,,...!!! n 70 m.e black is better!!!!!!

  • The second camera does not work and almost all the phone retailers I went to cannot fix it and you cannot find the faces to change the old one.

  • Like most comments posted, this phone's main camera is not working and it hangs up when you calling.

  • well m using this phone for almost 3 years now its main camera is not working, card slot is also not working , and some time this thing hang

  • Yeah . I'm having the same problems :)

  • I have N71 for 3 years. Now, the main camera is not working. The screen always get scratch because it hits the keypad if you are a "hard user." Sometimes it says "memory full delete some..." even if it's really not while texting then you have to restart it all over again. That's the only problem I have.

  • I bought this phone in somewhere 2006 2nd Quater, I am really Happy with this nokia product however later I made some changes due to that it started facing issues Spares are really big problem for this model rest this phone is the best in its own class.

  • The memory of your phone shows full when you recieve your sms. Solution- go to messaging.Go to option.Choose setting.In setting,choose 'other' setting.Select memory.Change it to the 'memory card'.After that your phone will work fine.

  • @Ayu_Strawberry - choose N97 because it has better specs, more recent model, a bit pricy but it`s the best @Nabshu - it doesn`t have wireless conectivity

  • I have this N71 just last year & i sold it but its really a great phone,i did'nt give me any problem.it have a great features.only things is it did'nt have wifi & small 10mb internal memory but still i miss this phone.

  • Had the phone for about 2 years now. Dreading every moment of it. Had to have the operating system changed twice, because it kept rebooting by itself, rejecting calls, failed loading my memory cards etc. Does have a nice sound system, but that's no reason to keep it. Everyone that I know that has this phone has a scratched screen - its own keys do that!

  • Cool gadget!

  • Hi Aggies I have exactly the same problem as you. Has anyone given you a solution please? Please let me know Regards Denzil [email protected]

  • this phone has a company problem they scrash after few days, later it starts going off and again it hangs and slows down later camera spoils else it is one of my admired phones cos it has alot for its kind good pic quality

  • best phone i've ever had... u can easily control the camera... good for a small movie director or if u wanna be a model without photographer... :P im using this phone about 2 years ago, but it had been stolen... and then im using N73, N80...but both of them are not as good as N71... now, i'm using N71 again... love this phone...

  • this phone is the least commented nseries phone. design - 6 features - 5 performance - 4

  • well well.. i think technically their is a lot of problems... but i like the design..

  • I think it a nice phone... guess what I droped on the pool, and you what the F.. antenna it's built into the circuitry, and they CAN NOT REPAIR IT, aint that great??? in other words what the F.. do I do with this phone?????

  • its my opinion to all of you who r thinking to buy this phone..........PLEASE DONT BUY IT!!! it is a dumb ass phone...........complete wastage of your money.......unfortunately i own this freaky set...........

  • hi,, this phone starts well but everywhile it come more annoying from the display scratches & once u move or just touch the mob near the memorycard pocket it pop ups saying remove memory card.. making in all of a sudden any riningtone default as message willnot be @ z mem,card too ..

  • n71 is one of the best fone im using ,but the cam is not working anymore....hardware failure is the problem..it cant be repaired anymore!!!!!

  • can anyone tell me? when some one make a call to me how can i make the screen that show its change by photo or photo id not in the smaal one but in the full screen size

  • is there anyone can help me?, i change my memory card with 1gb and when instaled i can't download my themes the notes is ( apllication error ) .

  • iTS been almost 2-3 yrs now.. and i still miss this phone... I bought a new car and i need this phone badly to match the Style... I remember when my Friend Rnm saw this phone for the first time, he freaked out looking at the features and shape... He gave me a new name from that day.. TREND SETTER.. I started the new era of buying stylish and trendy phones among my friends...They were stuck with basic color phones with radio.. N71- PREPARE FOR GLORY.......

  • Negative feeds oozing from the gut of this phone... i already bought it so i guess i have to wait if all these stuff u guys saying will show up, hopefully not... i have chosen between this and the E61, and n71 prevails... dont let me down, babe!

  • All your babbling are software issues, yep i've heard lotsa complaints about the main camera not working and stuff... n71 carries a new breed of symbiam os so it is in its boomer stage when Nokia used it with n71, n91 etc... a firmware update make be the best resort but be very careful when you do it by urself... may cause much bigger issues when done the wrong way.... Hopefully i will not stumble on the same problems you guys have, i love this phone so far... and what the hell is, ..."it can play music but it is not what its built for (or something like that..),? this phone plyas much better music that n91!... (tested thru sennheiser headsets)...

  • I planned of buying N71 before. With the fold closed, can you take self-photos using the main camera? I am kind of a narcissistic person; i love taking photos of me. the camera, and the ability to take self-photos using the main camera with the viewfinder facing me is really my top concern. i have now my N93i but it disappoints me when I knew that I cannot take good self-photos with it (except when you use the front camera, which resolution is not good). I thought I can twist the viewfinder to myself while the main camera facing me, but no! It doesn't work that way. I still have to twist the viewfinder to the other side, making taking self-photos a difficult task (try, and try, and try? that's a lot of hard work). can you guys email me if N71 does what I want for a phone? i don't visit this site very often so please kindly send your answers to my site zangcaesar[dot]com as comment. i would appreciate it. although N71 is now rather not sold by Nokia, I believe there are those who can sell it for me as second-hand. thanks!

  • this id the worst phone i have ever had, nokia should be ashamed and they should give a new phone to every owner of this horrible phone!!! i bought it and on the 10th day its camera stopped working. it was on a 6 month repair, and after the 5 day it stopped working again!!!!!!!! i am going to run over this phone when i buy a new one, i haaaaaateeeeee it!!!!! i updated the software and the new one is even worser!!! in restarts on every call, and the speaker is quieter then before. in am so disapointed i am just angry i hate it!!!!

  • Bad design.

  • Guys, Had the same problem for about 8 mos ago, then i've learned from a friend that all I need it a so called "Black-out Reformat" where in ur cp's OS and application will be remove just like reformating your PC.. And it worked for me!!! TRY IT GUYS

  • Dear all i have purchased this phone from an year back recently it has started giving me trouble for camera .wheni switch on camerea i get this error hardware failure restart camera kindly guide me

  • I have the problems like the others have said, I love the Nokia N71 very much but it dissapoints me when it says MEMORY FULL DELETE SOME DATA i have tried to delete all un-necessary data but still it demands to delete some data, another problem is ntework conncetion is not available at no reason, another problem is sms sending, it takes 1 minute for one sms to be sent, it reboots its self at no reason, pls if you have any way to solve these problems help me pls I like the phone

  • had this phone for nearly 18 months. 2mp camera stopped working after 6 months for no reason (not dropped or wet...just quit working). OS is uberslow... sending a text takes near a minute. Also crashes and resets for no apparent reason. It is by far the sloppiest designed and worked out nokia I ever owned. Like everyone else, the screen has mega scratching all over which is clearly a design flaw in my opinion. I recommend against purchasing this phone. Either a different brand, or another N-model would work much better for most.

  • hey this n71 is not good at all .now it gives me the problem wth the ,it says hardware failure or restart .plz if you any advise email me

  • it's a nice phone...by functions 'n look...but scratches on the screen are unavoidable...as 'm using it from last 1 year...i got the scratches in the very 1st week...

  • I'm going to buy this phone.. is it a good choice?

  • can any1 tel me how to prevent or to remove the scratches in the main display coz' every time i scroll my images it's very annoying to see those scratches.

  • *#7370# for sormat symbian phons

  • can anyone tell me how do you format this phone ??? please help

  • hey i would like to recommend this phone is very good .it makes good pictures ,everything of this phone is very good .i heve used so many phones but this one

  • n71 id great but with some problem i encountered .afteramonth of usage the main camera malfunction...since i like the unit i bought another one again but after 3 months of usage the same defect happened...does this mean the unit is engineered with this defect...the scratches is only secondary for me....

  • Great reliable phone I picked up recently . I went back to using this model instead of my new LG KU990 as it is a touch phone and a pointer which I do not like. My other phone N95 was stolen in Hongkong. My old N71 bit the dust when it fell off the bar and landed on the floor . ALL functions failed and the hatch holding the memory card snapped off. Moral - dont take your phone to the pub. N95 internet function is excellent

  • oh...i like this phone so much from all of my previous ang latest phone becoz the camera is very good, good quality and really brings out a perfect picture. its stylish bcoz of its clam shell appearance its classy bcoz of its stainless matte finished and the keypad is very good...its one of the N-sreies family that really has the good quiality from its features! the only problem of this phone is the scratch mark from the keypad to the screen...day by day its shows a big scratch and beginning to look not good!

  • My 2MP Camera is NOT WORKING! Had problems with SIM not identified and the screen scratches endlessly. Should have bought the N70 if I know this would happen! NOKIA you should talk to your responsible phone designer and let him know this is the WORST Nokia design ever

  • noticed many n71 had front camera problem(2MP didnt work

  • Nice and trendy phone, however several problems such as keys scratcing the main display frame, error design that is; also somehow picks bugs so easily you have to delete info and format always; main camera has gone and no sign of getting back, loses power and reboots itself at will. Above all, mine no longer picks network though nokia care said i should download current software. Am in the process now and cant say if it will restore it.

  • well rajrnmohit correct??? if it says sim is not registered maybe you have not used your sim for over a month if not they will terminate ur no. ...

  • i noticed many n71 had front camera problem(2MP)...

  • hey guys...recently after i updated my firmware..the phone cant detect the memory card anymore..why is it?can somebody help?

  • This is a very trendy phone and looks like money!

  • i deleted almost all music and images and all unnecessary folders and files and still it says MEMORY FULL! PLEASE DELETE SOME DATA!im running out of options on what else to delete.it's a bug i found in this phone. If you try to put too many photos into a mini-screen screensaver slide they get stuck onto your phone's memory. best solution, format it.

  • Great phone with lots of feature, greater than Nokia N70

  • Its barely a year since I purchased it, I have been having issues with the main camera. Have been getting messages like 'SIM not registered', 'Phone will restart'. Very frustrated. Not happy.

  • Deadly phone, though keyboard scratching display part of phone, one has to sadly admit.No other frets.

  • It is really unbelievable the keyboard scratches the display. This is by far the only problem and disadvantage I have observed in this great phone. It could have been a perfect cell phone if it didn't have this small issue.

  • the front camera is only for video calling and not for any other purpose.

  • Main cam is not working. but second cam is working..memory card also not accessing..I'm really sad..please help me..

  • same here.. camera infront not working!! me and my fren also have same problem..

  • image mode & video are not functioning. but use second cam is ok. pls advised what to do? thanks!

  • sms accelerator on n71's support page

  • same problem..to send single sms take almost 1 minute..its terrible..best solution?

  • to the guy who said he was having problems with OUT OF MEMORY errors. it's a bug i found in this phone. If you try to put too many photos into a mini-screen screensaver slide they get stuck onto your phone's memory. best solution, format it.

  • I saw that one of my classmates has this phone and thought it was japanese. It is a big, brick of a phone that is very rugged and high quality. I liked the vivid, colorful screen, simple clean menu, and the high resolution camera. Although, many owners have seemed to have many issues with various firmware causing slow proccesors and text speed among other things. One of the more ineresting phones I've seen.

  • I come with this problem with the memory on the N71 at my shop , i think it could be resolved with a hard reset or with an update , this eror is seen at video capture mode , i'l try to play with the settings , if not an HARD RESET is written on it .

  • This is one of the troublesome phones i have seen. The keypad scratching the screen...phew. For sms speeding try and download sms accelarator from nokia website. It you cant find it then go to nokia 3250 or N80 page and click on the software and look for sms accelarator. I guess upgrading the firmware might help the blank screen and the slow reponse of the mobile.

  • i'm having similar problems; blank screen, no phone memory available, slow sms sending, self reboot, what should i do, you can reply via my email address, couldn't find the free software on that link "series60v3.com" please help!

  • hello, does anybody have the following problem: it can not find network connection. I also repaired it once already for blank screen. please let me know thanx

  • try deleting some stuff from ur phone memory or try formatting ur memory card

  • i received my n71 in january 2007. being a student i rely heavily on my phone. recently my phone has been giving me endless problems. i deleted almost all music and images and all unnecessary folders and files and still it says MEMORY FULL! PLEASE DELETE SOME DATA!im running out of options on what else to delete. i love nokia and have always upgraded only ever to nokia. PLZ SUM1 ADVISE...

  • i received my n71 in january 2007. being a student i rely heavily on my phone. recently my phone has been giving me endless problems. i deleted almost all music and images and all unnecessary folders and files and still it says MEMEMORY FULL! PLEASE DELETE SOME DATA!

  • its better than lg classic

  • its a gr8 phone

  • actually, bringing your phone to nokia service center and upgrade your software version will make it works better....mine is v 4.0642.1.05 rm 67

  • hi.. recently my n71 keeps rebooting, turns off by itself, and appears message "SIM CSRD NOT VALID". This really make me sick. It happen more then 10 times a day.

  • I can't understand, that most of your don't know, that SMS ACCELERATOR exists. With this aplication slow sms will dissapear. This aplication is available at nokia.com since 09.2006!!!!

  • actually N70 better than this fone........

  • Lots of complaints regarding the keypad scratching the screen. Can manufacturer get back the mobile and replace the latest.

  • can anyone tell me why when i send sms from this phone it keeps pending althought the one i sent it to already recived it...how can i fix that? i checked my network and i also restarted it many times but in vain

  • Phone looks good and works okay across the the globe, including Japan. However, the keypad scratches the scree. THE BIG issue if it the space between the metal and the front screen catches my beard and wont let go! the thing hurts... I gave it to repair... worked fine for few weeks and now back. I don't suggest its a phone worth buying

  • Bought the N71 in January... very disappointed with it. Takes ages to send txts and it constantly freezes or crashes which is frustrating!!

  • Hi, I have this phone for about 10 months now, so far I'm glad, but there are lots of problems. Most of the problems were corrected with the new FIRMWARE v4.0642.1.05. with the new FIRMWARE you don't need to install SMS Accelerator, or when installing a new software your internal memory will not be occupied, your phone will not restart when ever it wants, I use a 2GB MiniSD 80X and with the new FIRWARE I have good speed. But the FIRMWARE cussed a new problem, some time the memory card becomes offline, the memory is in the phone but suddenly the phone says " closing all app.." and the memory goes offline, and I have to eject the memory and enter it again for making it online.???? You get used to it!!! But still scratches on the screen, very small and bad keypads are on your nerves. Still great screen res... And colors. good sound. symbian OS great music player lots of great software. If I was going to buy a phone right now I would not buy a N71 because there are lots of great phones out there like N95, N75, N76, N81, P1,... BUT STILL I'M GLAD WITH MY CHOUES 10 MONTHS AGO.

  • i got this mobile a year ago.camera's dead now.have never dropped it before.damn..

  • i had bought it 1 year ago, sent in for repaired = 4 times, due to screen blackout. Scratches on screen by the keypad is inevitabled if u have no protector. anyway i'm happy with the camera function + screen, can have a very good picture. not really worth to buy.

  • i have a problem about my nokia n71,i just bought it two weeks ago,the problem started now i notice that it has no signal its sais sim card registration failed,i use two kind of sim smart and globe but when i try the two sims on the other phone it has signal,then i try again sun sim and it has signal,what do you think the problem with my phone?i really like this phone because its flip,thanks.i hope you have solutions to my problem.

  • some of the themes, my text is not visable so if you people are gonna create themes please solve this problem as it is very iritating

  • I've posted once before about this phone losing the memory card function. Now I'm posting again to advise that as soon as I downloaded Nokia's latest firmware update, the phone lost voice dialing. If you try to use the voice dialing feature, the phone shuts down! My previous posting discussed the horrible design of the memory card slot, which failed on my phone, rendering the use of the memory card useless. So now, two key features of the my phone are not useable and I cannot get it repaired (living in the USA). This phone looks great on paper and would have been great if Nokia had actually delivered everything they advertised. Sadly, they didn't. It's an over-priced paperweight and I'd advise anyone thinking of buying it, to think hard about something else. You'll be sorry.

  • My N71 had a SMS_Accel -program installed right out of the box. Maybe this solves some problems with slow sms:ing. SMS_Accel application is available at Nokia�s web page. I�ve had no problems with SMS. Cons: Internal phone memory (not RAM) fills up too quickly (13MB), even if you install all your applications to memory card. Power button is too small, diffucult to use. Keypad is clumsy to use. Had some problems with my sim card, it doesn't go in place (worn out sim card, doesn�t go deep enough, solved with a piece of tape). Badly balanced, by this I mean that when you hold it in your hand, the screen-part is way too heavy. No ability to record from the radio. Internal RAM in filled up quickly, example: when surfing the web using fring in the background, fring is often killed to obtain more RAM. Pros: S60 v3 + all the great applications Radio

  • Word of advice: KEEP OFF! There are problems with this phone. It's thick for its features. It also has the bad habit of crashing and restarting when doing things. Keypad is smallish and difficult to type or navigate with. Camera is good though. Speaker is ok. Also, despite lots of people saying it: Yes! Whatever you do, the keypad scratches the screen horizontally in the middle. Either use a plastic film screen protector, or don't use this phone. It really scratches and it's quite visible. Get another N-series if you want, like N80 or the N76.

  • i bought this phone 1.5 month ago and now im going to repair it cause battery working (then i dont use phone) about 12 hours or then i use, it working about 1-2 hours :D

  • I have had my 71 for a year now. Its gone for repair 4 times now (thats once every 3 months).Each time I get it back its great for about a month then it starts slowing down again, freezing, taking 5mins to send a text & completely random application msgs appear all the time. I've updated software etc but still it keeps happening. I really love this phone-when it works! But sadly, I think it will never be reliable, and completely inconvenient when I have to be without it for 2-3weeks at a time when its being repaired. (I had to buy a cheap one - well �100- just to tide me over at these times cos the repairers dont offer you a replacement!) The concept of the N71 is good but the reality isnt. What I want to know is-what happens when the 24month warranty runs out? I'm left with a useless phone that cost me �359 that I thought & hoped would last me at least 4 years, thats why I forked out that much in the first place. I've always had nokias (have tried others but always migrated back to nokia) & to be honest I'm very disappointed with them & their aftercare services. They once tried to fob me off with a horribly scratched replacement that had bits missing off it like the nokia panel on the back & the memory card cover bit. Cheek! And when you contact nokia (a fete in itself) they wont replace it for a dif model. Disgusting when we pay so much for these things dont you think. Please can anyone offer any advice!

  • ''This phone is good, I had no problem about this.only just keypad touch the screen.guys if u had a problem about software,sms or anything just upgrade ur firmware like me and the problem has gone.believe me.'' Is that true?! How can i upgrade the firmware? :)

  • thnx bert :)

  • this phone really good,i was used about 1 month and i dont have any seriuosly problem,everything is running well. but i have any question,at my n71 dont have anti virus,but the game are snake and sudoku,but actually the game is snake and card desk,and at my n71 there is available air album.any one tell me what the reseon? i am affraid this phone is black market,cause i buy second hand but fullset,and for handsfree,battery, and cable data made by china,but the book and the guaranted,cd software are original.... plzz help me?????

  • Hey guyz, Im about to buy this phone but i dont know if its really good.. Can anyone tell me the bad things that i may face?And if the phone is so bad that it doesnt worth to buy it... I need a good phone so if you want to request something plz tell me.. thnx :) i have this fon for 5 months now...so far it does serve its purpose...f ur looking for n71's flaws, here some that i wanna share...like wat most ppl wud agree...its keypad can cause scratches but of course you can always do somethin bout it...if you hav bought a memory card and use it on this fon, that would b great, however, wen you have used much space (on ur Memory Card), it may become an issue...sending text messages would take around 2-3 minutes and u hav to wait til d message is sent before u could browse your fon coz it hangs as it sends d message...i dunno f this applies for other ppl but its headset is not that durable...im musically inclined so i listen to mp3's everyday even wen i go to sleep...my headset got jammed after 4 months...now i have to buy a new one...on d brightside...this fon really rocks! i would want this fon to have separate folders for pics and videos though..

  • Hello,I`m also want to buy this set.does the touch in screen by keyboard make scratch? to the person who asked this...yes d keypad can cause scratches on your screen...you can avoid it by either closing your fon carefully or by buying a screen guard...overall this fon is simply amazing

  • my battery drains so fast, is it normal for n71?

  • Hey. just bought d fone. really good xcept dat it dies v quick when using radio... :(

  • "For some of my themes, the text does not show when i type an sms or anything else, help anyone?" that theme is not for u're mobile phone, it's not for n71

  • This phone is good, I had no problem about this.only just keypad touch the screen.guys if u had a problem about software,sms or anything just upgrade ur firmware like me and the problem has gone.believe me.

  • I've been using this phone for about 8 months, everything was smooth and i adore this phone so much my friends are green with envy, until 2 months ago when all problem started and hit me like a tsunami. 2 major problems I'm facing are missing internal memory and delay in sms-ing. I'd moved all my data into my 1GB memory card but the phone keep on showing low memory, please delete some of your data. From 300 sms-es now i can only keep 20 sms-es. Worst still now I have to delete at least 2 messages to receive 1 sms! I have no more messages to be deleted and I can no longer receive any more sms due to short of memory. I'd checked and I did not keep any data in my internal memory, It's mystically missing. It drove me to the wall and I almost threw the damn phone into the pit. The slow sending sms process is still tolerable for me but I just can't stand the memory problem!!!! I've decided to trade in this damn phone....

  • receivng message..all app like app content colose

  • for lagging problem do following its a common prob in symbian powered nokias clear its internal memory and move ur content to memory card.also clean up ur inbox and pending drafts. besides uninstall any screen savers and fone lockers they r resource hoggers

  • Love the phone when I bought it, but now it lags, and takes over 10 seconds for a command to execute. Is there a fix for this ? Can anyone help please...

  • hi everybody, any mobile phone with the new tech .. softwares cameras whtever just start dieying within 7 mounthes up to 1 year or less... all of them

  • ok most of you are complaining for the 'ghost screen scratch' problem.the answer of your problem is that dont buy the fake ones (as**n) and if youve got one now buy a screen protector that specializez the n71 and ask your local nokia shop.... hope thiz helpzzz

  • the phone's great and all. but its all of a sudden lagging very much. as in to the extend that it takes 5 seconds to respond to 1 button pressed. anyone can tell me wads happening and how to solve it?

  • hi how i can send farsi sms or recive farsi sms ? any body have program

  • This phone could have been a great one but I've had nothing but problems, culminating in the loss of use of the memory card. The design of the slot for the card has a small lever, which when opened, then relays a message to the screen instructing the user to remove the card and press ok. The problem was, I wasn't trying to remove the card...the lever had a defect in it. Finally, it failed completely, so the memory card for this very expensive phone is now useless. I've tried to contact Nokia in several countries for advice, to no avail. I live in the USA and since the phone is not sold here, Nokia USA will not talk to me. This used to be the leading mobile phone mfg. in the world, but their product has defect and their product support stinks.

  • first time i've ever seen a nokia nseries fail!

  • after 1 week my display screen is already scratched from the keypad, toooooooooo baaaad for NOOOOOOOOOOOKKKKIAAAAAAAAA

  • use of screen protector in this phone is highly advisable. I have this phone and scratches in the screen do really come out, plus it shuts down all by itself, hangs etc. but its all good though. I rate this phone as an average good buy.

  • Wrong, got UK model made in Finland. Actually came with minor unnoticable scratches. Put a screen protector on it and that's been scratched a few times. If i close it hard, big scratches build up on the bottom of the screen where the multimedia button would make contact with it. I'm getting a silicone skin for the phone and that will add width to the screen protection and that should fix it. The scratch problem with the N71 is universal. Old or new. Only got mine a month ago and unless it was an old make, which I doubt. There are ways to protect the screen. Just be wary of it.

  • i have this phone for about 8 months, and it's great. i have no problems with screen, and yes, it takes a little bit longer to send messages, but i don't care. that problem is result of symbian software. this phone is best buy =)

  • I think most people complaining about the screen are those who bought from Asian market, ie "Made by Nokia" item. Mine is from European market and obviously "Made in Finland". I haven't had the screen problem yet, but who knows it might come up soon! So far so good. Quite happy with it. To me, it's comparable to SE V800/Z800 (the chunky flip phone). But I prefer the hinge of N71 to SE V800/Z800. Currently I don't like N71's response coz it seems a bit slack...surprisingly. Normally we always complain about the slack response on SE.

  • lovely piece of work !! gr8 stuff

  • This phone sucks big time. The screen gets scratched, it take like a minute for the sms to leave your cell, camera software is useless... it always shows a "Hardware failure". Don�t ever I mean ever think about buying this phone it�s a waste of money. Trust me on this I have been using the phone for 6 months.

  • Why this phone is not good? What are the problems faced by you guys??

  • this fone so stupid!!!!!!!

  • Worst Nokia phone that i have owned.Scratched Screen , dropping calls , No signal , Restarting applicatins.Etc

  • bit defender mobile security

  • can anyone please tell me whats new in N71's latest firmware.

  • this phone is not good at all

  • This phone has a great body . it is easy to use and handle . the only problem is that its repair charges are too high .

  • Hi,i have one,and this is now a perfect multimedia phone within its price and if you don't care about its size. The screen is scratch because of the keypad,but you can solve this problem by a protection plastic.

  • hi i want to buy this phone but i need some information about the prob.. in the phone and the prob.. in the screen plz any one now any thing plz tell me

  • its a great phone..it produces great pictures and have a nice sound.. to avoid scratches in the screen hanfle it with care and close it gently..

  • look everybody the phone is eally good. good sound and camera really resolution is really hight perfect disgn but the screen scratch kill sll these specifications so the phone is really bad lol!!on the other hand if u want to buy this phone n80 is the best choise thanksssssss

  • Hi Carlos, I'm Philips. You said to mail you if to know about the N71. You sound like you currently use it. Pls tell, is the scratch issue as serious as it is blabbed about? I really love the phone. Could the scratch be remedied permanently? Any drawbacks? I'm particular about sound quality. Is it beta, same, or less powerful than N70? Thats my other choice. I'll be glad u help.

  • this phone is so defective! the keypad scratches the screen! it's constantly hanging, rebooting and going on insert sim card and offline mode..i already had it serviced by nokia and it is still causing me problems!

  • excellent phone. outlooking is not that kind of impressive.. a bit bulky. bt others are superb.camera.music player.radio. full page internet browsing.. what ever u want..screen resolution is same as n73,n80. bright and real TFT. but i heard that nokia discontinue this product? any one knows whether its true?? regarding symbian feel free to contact. tnx

  • one more thing, if your business relies too much on taking pictures and sending them via email and/or computer why not try getting your company a nice digital camera instead of a camera phone. the picture quality is better, it wont take up too much of your time uploading to any computer simply pop up your cable and click and drag to copy pics..

  • anyone can make do with just a few scratches, its rather too much to say a phone is bad because it scratches too easy besides its performance doesnt rely on it being scratched or not.. its high end, its practical, its useful, its nokia.. simply gorgeous..

  • Hi all first up for taking great pics and sending them too the computer i recommend the N80 i have it and its awesome. I also have a screen protector on it and they do help whoever asked

  • With it's current price, this phone is worth every cent of your money. It's a multimedia powerhouse! Wish i would also have this.

  • to "Ayman" yes! sorry but i saw this problem!!!! it's very bad for nokia!!!!!!!!!!

  • the screen guard solve the scratches' problem but u need to change the screen guard after about 4-5 mounts , n71 without this problem is really good and complete phone

  • I bought the phone and after 4 days it already has scratches on the screen from the butons X(X(X(X( .. I hate the phone!

  • its a dazzling phone,great music sound especially an extreme camera if u want t o ask any thing about it just mail me.

  • please can you help we send a lot of photos from cell to computer then e-mail, we currently have a samsung,(not happy)which cell phone takes the best pictures as it is part of our buisness to down load pictures for our sales department. Can you pleasebe so kind and inform us as our cell contract needs to be renewed Thak You H de Robillard

  • Can any user of the N71 wz a screen guard cordially tell me plz if he's facing any problem concerning the screen scratches?? does the screen guard solve the scratches' problem totally?? plz answer me coz i love this phone and can't wait 2 get 1, but i'm afraid of the EXPECTED scratches!!

  • I have been using this phone now for about a month and i'm quite satisfied with the performance. One thing that stinks on this phone is the instalation of the battery. It sits in the back cover and i just bought one which i tried putting on and now is useless cause i didnt put in it right. What ever happened to putting in the battery and closing it like every other phone.....

  • 6288 and N71. Both are 3G phones. 6288 is Series 40 3rd edition while N71 is Series 60 3rd edition. Probably, the advantage of N71 over 6288 is its Symbian 9.1 operating system which makes it possible to install additional softwares, like games and other useful applications.

  • Which is better N71 or 6288? I regret buying 6288, because I didn't notice the N71. Pls, anyone??

  • I just purchased a Nokia N71 ... after two days my display screen is already scratched from the keypad ... it sucks ... bad construction.

  • Can any user of N71 cordially tell me plz about the problem of screen scratches caused by the keypad?? Is it really a serious problem?? That's only wt bothers me abt this phone, i don't care abt size or design...plz tell me, r these scratches really annoying?? Ayman from Egypt..

  • well guys i wanna buy this fone but i have one prob. does it take softwares cos all the softwares i had on my 6630 wont work on this one. help me out pls. thanks

  • Nokia has to modify this design to get over the simple drawbacks ... I bought it 2 months ago and i'm gonna sell it b4 the screen scratch get worse

  • I really like the clamshell design of this phone. It's nice. I don't care about its bulk. To those who have freezing and lagging problems with their phones, maybe you need to update your phone's firmware to the latest version. Hope it helps.

  • i own an n71. it's nice but when u start putting applications on it it will start to get slower by the minute especially when texting.

  • Hi Bro, I have a N71-1 for about 5 months, since the first day I'm using a "Transcend 2GB MiniSD 80X" & never had ran in any problem. the main thing is that u will lose some speed but it depends on what flash card u are using & how much free speas u have on your flash. I'm satiscfied with mine & I have filled the 2GB with MP3 & DivX files & Programs & still I have good speed.

  • Hi everyone, i bought my N71 6 six months ago. Except the screen scratch, all of about this phone are good. Good sound quality, good screen display and good features. I have some questions to ask everyone. 1) I'm using 1GB now, i wonder if N71 work good with 2GB mini sd? 2) If N71 got any animate themes like SE phone have? Thanks..

  • Regret buying this model - can hang, cannot connect to network and can switch off by itself . Just a few months and all sort of problems can happen!!!

  • brilliant phone but the keypad is a broad one,it should had been be symetrically designed,i used it from november 2006,iam quite satisfied

  • the skratches on my n71 are huge , except that is an nice phone, i have a 2gb mini sd on it and is great

  • bad design . i have it. the keypad scratch the screen just after 5 day , exept this prob this phone is perfect

  • fren, if ur N71 sometimes lagged when sending sms, u should install "sms_accelerator.sis" which can be found under N71 support page in nokia.com it really helps. I've been using this phone since oct 2006 and quite satisfied, just the keypad annoyed me.

  • I love my N71, have had it since June 2006 but its had to go back twice because it takes up to 3 minutes to send a text!!Then its ok for a while then after about a month it starts getting slower & slower again. is there anyone else out there who has had this prob or am I just unlucky? Its not because I have large memory cos it still does this without the memory card in it. Also it freezes now & again & random application messages appear. Anyone know how I solve these probs? Please let me know. Ta x

  • plzzzzzzzzz tell me to buy it pr not ?! i like it but .. someone encourage me plz and this is my mail [email protected]

  • This phone is quite good but he has one big problem after a couple of months you can see all the buttons on the screen and you need to change your phone (this problem has all N71 Nokia's)

  • TO 0fwM Dude, not everything made in China has bad quality OK! If you got the money you can get whatever good stuff you want. You can also get cheap and fake stuff in China if you are not willing to pay the right price for the right quality. Even PS3 & Xbox360 are made in China. You should feel lucky that these stuff are made in China otherwise you might have to pay $1000 for a stupid phone.

  • Mean the phone is made in china, nokia put made by nokia because they know that people will start thinking about fake and poor qualtiy when they hear china. It is perfectly fine, your phone is made in china by nokia factory, quality is as good as other. firmware maybe a little old, but nothing big.

  • Hi everyone. A friend of mine got N71 last week .It is MADE BY NOKIA but not written where, can anybody explain this?

  • its clamshell design is very cute when i saw this phobe for the first time. the stock of this phone in my country is limited, so it's quite hard to find this phone. although makes it cute, the clamshell design also makes the screen crash easily with the keypad. the flexible (rotator of the flip phone) doesn't work well, too. the battery is very weak, too bad. anyway, it has good quality of camera, music player, and other multimedia items. but maybe with the price range of this phone, nokia N70 is better choice.

  • Hi, I have a problem. my internal memory is going down & this is troubling me, & my sms sending is slow, my internal memory goes down whenever I install any games or themes even after throwing all my games & themes it's still like that & I always install 2 my memory card.

  • i am mohamed from alexandria egypte 0104416390 this hponr is great only but scratch on the screen u have to close it slowly and never but it in your pocket ever thanks

  • Been having this phone for a few months and its great. Yea sadly the screen easily gets scratched. Camera's good. Phone's heavy but it doesn't really matter. With tons of games and apps ready by march 2007, s60 v3 wouldn't be a problem. Though i'm having trouble loading Asphalt GT 2 3d...

  • this phone i amazing. the screen is bigger and the sound quality is superb. Though not comparable to w series of sony ericson..however..this is a series 60 version 3 so most of the applications from other nokia cant be transferred..The scratch is very serious thoug..it annoys me to look at the screen but the resolution is good..again it is not comparable with n80..this phone is better than n90 and the only flip that has the attitude..i love my n71..the picture is good but if you happen to print it..the quality is really not that good...overall i love it though..i like flip phones..

  • hey i jus wanted to know how is the sound quality on the speaker as well as on the earphones? in the the speaker on the phone a stereo or a mono? coz i really love my music and im usually in lound places so i need to know if its loud enough? thanx

  • To huy Have you been living under a rock? The cheapest brand new n71 in vietnam is 4.6million,i saw a couple for 5.3million or so, which is not even close to $400 man. N71 have the same screen with n73, so you can get screen protector for it

  • it's very orgenal phone it's my dream phone if was contain the wifi coniction. and it's price is very good

  • My flap has become really lose!! The phone used to hang, but is pretty all right now.. Sound quality is Amazing... it's a bit heavy though...

  • i just bought a nokia n71 its terrible crashes now and than. when running applications it takes a long time to execute commands. tryed to delete all images i took and music but still runs slow. the fact that you can not seperate your images from videos is frustrating you can only do that in albums of which you dont just go through them when you open your images. the plastic screen has been scratched buy the key pad.when trying to do anything on this phone it takes a long time.

  • i would like to make a correction..hehehe..its keypad indeed has the tendency to create 'accidental' scratches ON ITS SCREEN...i have a total of 7 scratches on fon's screen but its not somethng really serious.. to agnes..its not that serious though but its something that needs to be addressed..wat i most like about this fone is that it makes u feel like an executive..

  • hello.i hav this phone for barely 3 weeks and im pretty much impressed with its features. music quality is exceptional, picture quality, superb, close to perfect, this is one heck of a phone. it has some drawbacks though. indeed, its keypad may create 'accidental' scratches on ur keypad so guys close them slowly and lightly. i hope nokia has a screen protector for n71. overall, i am highly satisfied with this phone. Questions to all of u guys. For now I only have the free 120 miniSD, but if I opt to buy a 1Gig miniSD, do u think that would affect my phone's browsing speed or performance? Im a music lover and I always play d songs I've downloaded. It is normal that the battery life is just good for one day if I play mp3's for like half of the time that I'm awake? hehehehe... please send me ur opinions..thanks a million. :)

  • im hope this mob is not gonna make me swear because of the reviews i saw... they all say that the screen will get damaged with the key pad..... what can i do about it?

  • hi all i just want to ask if there anyone in middle east used this cell phone ?! cause i think most of the openion here from india or malysia so iam not seeing any arabian one here .. so plz i really want this phone and iam so confused about most openions here ... plz tell me to buy it or not ?!!

  • Hi, Iam really concerned about the said scratches the keypad causes on the sreen. Are they so serious? Iam thinking of buying this phone so please help me out. Agnes

  • i have been using this phone for 4 months.its fully loaded ,and has almost everything,but does not have a good resale value.so if u really like flip mobiles than go for it otherwise n72 or n80 are good options.screenguard does solve the scratch problem but is not 100% effective....

  • is this fone is A-OK??coz im planning to buy this fone next week and im kinda worried about those opinion about the keypad..please answer me..thnx!!!!

  • I live in VietNam. But it's price at here is 437 USD. It's quite expensive. But when it's price down, I will buy it.

  • cool

  • I'm having a huge memory issue with this Phone, I have nothing what so ever stored on the internal memory, yet it's always low on memeory ! I have a good few Scratches on the screen due to a factory fault on the key pad. I would never want a model like this again.

  • I've been using this phone for 9 months and i HEAVILY use it. I can give you my honest and unbiased feedback about this phone 1) OUTLOOK - The outer part doesn't look as pleasant as other outer flip Nokia models. The inner part of the phone is just simply beautiful. Sometimes i would just open up the phone and admire the inner metallic silver color and platings. 2) AS PHOTO CAMERA - 2MP back cam. Front cam is 0.3MP but in my opinion, acceptable enough for video calls after experimenting. The back cam takes pretty impressive 2MP shots, in fact better than other 2MP models and other manufacturer models. It has 'shutter' shots, but no big deal to me :) Some find it very useful but not to me. 3) AS A VIDEO CAMERA - Again not bad but nothing spectacular. Better than some models but not all. 4) AUDIO RECORDING - Pretty impressive sound quality after playing back. Even transferred it to a PC with proper sound monitors and it is acceptable again. 5) AUDIO PLAYBACK / SPEAKERPHONE - Very VERY good. Crystal clear, bright and loud enough. 6) HEADPHONE - Tried both standard mini jack (converter) to my own stereophones and Nokia handsfree proprietary ear plugs and found them reasonably good. I have no complains about this. 7) SCRATCHES - Yes, caused by one of the small embedded curves around the keypad. So whenever you close the phone, do it lightly. Oh i do love to hear the metallic 'click' whenever you close the phone. In doing so, the phone gets shut at a faster pace thus inviting only more 'impact' scratches. 8) INTERNET BROWSING - I'm happy with the browsing although i've had some problems opening Flash sites. That's because I simply couldn't find a link to download the latest flash compile for the Symbian OS. Now 9 months later i've decided to sell this phone. I just realised this phone does NOT have any 2nd hand value. I will be making a 60% loss after 9 months based on the used market rate in Malaysia. Reason i'm selling this is because the front camera does not function (i've sent it once to repair but haven't sent it again), the OS appeared slighly buggy and prone to error returns. This only happened after 6 months of use. I DO NOT install any 3rd party software and so that only leaves one reason why i get the camera and error problems on my N71.... ... i can only say that i have dropped this phone about 25 to 30 times in the past 9 months... ... so you make the call and be the judge ... :)

  • I'm looking for a bluetooth stereo headset that is compatible with this phone, does anyone know any good models?

  • ******************************* Hi, I'm using a 2GB MiniSD Transcend 80X with my N71-1, Who many of u guys out there are using a 2GB MiniSD With your N71 & Who is the speed of the phone??????????????????

  • This phone is a powerhouse.The multimedia applications are amazing.If you can buy it get it.

  • Ok things to consider when comparing some of the Nseries phones that I have experienced before for N80, N73 and N71 : N80 : Best resolution on screen, Wlan, UPNP N73 : Best camera among the three with autofocus and carl zeiss (Though its just a marketing scheme) N71 : Best music quality among all the 3 and the largest screen

  • Its a great phone,looks good takes great pics.the n serries is a step up for nokia.the only problem with the handset is after a few weeks the buttons scratch the screen. Other than that 9/10

  • i got this phone last november and it's working very well. aside from the scratches on the screen made by the keypad, the phone is working perfectly for me. as soon as i got hold of it, i installed the sms accelerator so to avoid experiencing the-slow-sending-sms problem which most people experience with this phone. the flip is not loose unless i apply force to make it loose. n71 has good sound, nice picture resolution for a 2mp. i love it when the phone say the caller's name while ringing so i know at once, without touching my phone, who the caller is. i am well satisfied having this phone in my hand! get one! =)

  • I just bought the Nokia N71. When in the half open position (or sitting position) the top part of the clamshell is quite lose - it moves to and from easily! Can anyone tell me if this is normal please or did I get a damaged phone? Thanks...apart from this it appears to be a great phone!!

  • N71 is a very great phone. It sounds good(the loudspeakers and the headsets) and it can support many sound formats. Screen is very vivid and clear, you can't even see the pixels. User interface is great, responds faster than the n70 and n80. The camera, well I could say that it has about average quality in taking pictures. The memory is only 10mb but can be upgraded to 2g mini sd card. As of now I haven't heard of any virus that has infected a nokia n71, maybe because of the new OS (s60 3rd edition). This maybe is the reason why the os is not backwards compatible with the other application...there are antivirus programs that can be downloaded, you just search the internet...thanks and goodluck.

  • For the last time, this phone is one of the best in multimedia especially music. It has all the features escept Wlan and get a screen guard which i brought the 1st day i buy this phone and for half a year nothing happen to my screen.

  • can i ask if this phone has many problem in software installation or can any say the problem of this phone.................????

  • guys,anybody having trouble with installing sis file on the N71,please view this site shows how to sort it out so that sis apps will install on your phone,this has been discussed many times before:

  • hi frends i dont have this phone yet but one thing i like about this phone is time lapse camer feature first nokia to have this i asked avout this feature few days back and now i got the answer myself today only(none on this board gave me reply except one gentleman who was as ignornant as me inspite of having this phone) As u can see time lapse is a vey powerful vourrrrestic appeal so i think nokia not publicising it much now go to and check for urself it does have this feature and enjoy it in sensible manner thnx sachit..

  • well this is da most awesome cell phone i hav ever laid ma eyezz upon!! wish i cud get dis dream cell phone !!

  • It is a wonderful phone. Everything that one can possibly want in a phone can be found in this one. Its only disadvantage, however, is the size. It is huge.

  • can anyone suggest a .jar software for hiding or encrypting gallery files for n71. as i have tried to install .sis format software but it does not work...

  • yes u can save messages directly to the mememory card,the only problem by doing that is the phone will not connect in data transfer(usb mass storage mode),cos the mem card is being accessed by the phone,so only option whould be then to use a card reader/writer...

  • that is also my question about this phone. can i save messages to the memory card so i can keep lots of it and not have to erase important messages i receive?

  • Hello! Good day to you all! I have always liked this phone but i keep putting off buying it because of so many bad reviews. But, finally, i am now as decided as i can be to buy this phone. Since i already saw it personally and touched it and fiddled with it for a while in a shop here in the Philippines. But i didn't get to test and scrutinize the phones functions so my only question now is can you save sent and received messages to the memory card? That's one of the best things about my old N7610 that's why i can't let go of it. I also have SE W800 and while it has a great camera and music playback/functions, i get so annoyed that i have to keep erasing sent and receive messages so often because the message memory is full.

  • i love this phone very much.. but i wud just lyk to clarify the biggest issue of this handset.. the MIGHTY SCRATCHES... is it true that that screen scratches can be removed by wiping screen solution? or even just a smooth cloth??? is it true that the plastic casing is scratch resistant??? pls help.. this are my only worries but as dsoon as it is clarified to me.. ill be buying it..tnx..

  • hi yannypopo thnx for ur comments actually it does have this function as i downloaded its manual from gsmarena to know the facts and guess wat it is clearly mentioned in the manual kindly check the manual and do it and do post ur reviews about these things which i have asked about manual is very small only 3mb on gsmarena kindly check and post ur comments as in india we cant check mobile beforhand buying it and neither can return it as some countries people can do.. thnx again sachit..

  • Go to "tools" folder,then "app man" icon,then "settings" then by "software installation" go to the option and make it "all" as well as "online certif.check" to "off" thats it u can now install tons of apps and games... i recommend the following sites,for your N71 (all s60 3rd edition apps will work,as well as games with a 240x320 resolution): www.dotsis.com www.symbian-mobile.org www.imserba.com/forum www.gsmhacks.com/forums/ www.series60v3.com

  • Guys! I will be buying a new phone soon! Which is better? N71 or N70? I've been thinking alot coz I can't decide on what to buy. I had a Nokia 6101 long ago and I am not happy with it's clam style that's why I am thinking twice whether I should buy another clam phone. But based on the comments, alot of u liked N71 very much. And which of the two phones have more memory (internal and default memory card combined)?

  • hards48 please help me out.i went to n71 app manager. there is no option of "off" in software installation. please tell me in detail wat to do.

  • Some applications for your nokia n71: ­ well, if anyone of you knows where to get more applications pls let us know... thanks!!!

  • I have recently bought a Nokia N71 handset, it is wonderful, but I become confused because its main (internal) display flicks (blinks) sometimes; especially whenever I am watching recorded camera videos and pictures in the gallery. Would you please inform me whether it�s a normal feature of this kind of display or mine has a problem? If there is a problem what should I do? I wonder if you reply me by e-mail: [email protected]

  • can someone kindly tell me how is the recption and sound quality (not the sound from the music player)for this model in the U.S.? I'm currently with T-mobile. Thanks.

  • Yes i fully aggree with eli71724 comments that the N71 is really an excellent S60 3rd Edition smartphone that is underated cos of its somewhat bulky size.It is excelent value for money relative to the N80 and N73.I have lots of apps and games working perfect on my N71. My main pros would be: -big,high quality 240x320 screen -good quality 2mp camera with good quality components used -good audio playback thru speakers or headphones -audio adapter in box to use your own headphones -fairly speedy UI once everthing is loaded into memory -i like the clamshell design -good build quality -very good compatiblilty with apps and games(some games run faster on N71 than N73) My main cons would be: -screen marks on the main screen caused by the phones keypad,but can be wiped away with a cloth -really low internal memory of around 10mb -bulky size (depands on the person) -smallish keybad -difficult to remove memory card slot,will not be a big issue if u buy a big memory card though On the whole i am very happy with my N71,the phone is smooth running and hardly ever crashes unlike other s60 v3 phones like the E61.A recomended purchase.

  • Yes both cameras can be used to take pictures and videos as well. N71 is for music and is more affordable than the n73 and n80. N71 performs faster than the n80 (based on my observations). The sound quality of the speakers is great! Also the headsets perform very well...Great screen, very vivid and clear but cannot rotate images in gallery.The only feature missing in n71 is the wi-fi...U should buy a screen protector because the keypad causes scratches on the screen... N80 has wi-fi and has 3megapixel cam...but the sound of the speakers i think is weaker than the n71...slow user interface especially on the gallery... has macro mode(for taking close-ups)unlike the n71... N73's lens user carl zeiss(glass) and can capture 3.2 megapixel pics using the main camera.it has no wi-fi but the screen is large...light weight and looks like the sony ericsson phones...go for the nokia n71, it's worth your money.^_^

  • question!!! please answer me right away =) can you use the front camera for taking pictures? thank you so much...if ever someone replied..=) i really like this phone...and ooooohhh..which is better...n73, n80 or n71??please someone reply!its really hard to decide which phone im going to buy because theyre all fabulous, if only i can have them all..please help me!!!im getting hysterical here..really =) thank you sooooo much

  • i m jani, plzzzzz tell me how is the Radio of this set, does it sounds good.does it gets all channels.plzzzzzzz reply me

  • n 71 i like this phone , but ..... one stupid problem the keyboard scratch the screen , why nokia !!!?? that make it look bad , now i am looking for a pda device . but problems everywhere .....

  • How do I extend my battery life? My n71 only lasts for about 2 days and sometimes only 1 day of heavy use...and what will happen if i will update my software using the nokia software updater...will i lose apps? my apps are installed in my memory card...thanks!!!

  • Of course, N71 definitely supports SIS and SISX files running on Symbian 9.1. Don't be misled.

  • m planning to bye n71....can neone tel me if it supports .sis file applications?????

  • Best place to download apps & games for S60 3rd edition phones like N71 is at: www.dotsis.com www.imserba.com/forum www.symbian-mobile.org www.series60v3.com And N71 is way better than N70,two big selling points being the way better screen = N70 has 2.1" 176x208 screen whereas N71 has 2.4" 240x320 screen which makes a big difference. Also N71 runs the latest S60 3rd edition OS whereas N70 runs the older S60 2nd Edition OS. I am very satisfied with my N71.

  • Hi! Do you know where to download S60v3 applications for my n71? Thanks!

  • mudasser you are taking utter rubbish, The N71 is a proper series 60 3rd edition smartphone.I have a N71 and have tons of apps and games installed and working perfectly fine.Maybe you do not know how use the phone or something else.Go to the "tools" folder,then "app manager" and then settings and make sure that installion is set to off.All the sis and jar files i have installed on my N71 worked 1st time,the themes support is a bity crappy but that seems to be a problem with s60 3rd edition phones in general. Furthermore the N71 offers excellent value for money than say an N73,cos the N71 has the same screen(240x320,2.4" size) same OS,same CPU,similar amount of free RAM,same video recording abilities and more. The main advantage the N73 gives u is the excellent camera,slimmer size & more internal memory.

  • i like nokia n71. only problem is that it is compatible with .jar files but is not compatible with .sis file. and all good softwares come in .sis format. how can i change the format from .sis to .jar

  • humm..i wonder...which is better?n71 or the up coming n75 who people say is the upgrade version of the n71...is it?can somebody help me...cuz ive been waiting to buy this phone, but suddenly theres the n75..huh...hard decision...i dunno...are the batteries fine?which has longer life battery,n71 or n75?and is it a troublesome to take photos with n71?cuz it operates only when open,right?

  • Hi I have one question...how can I turn on my vibration alarm? Thanks.

  • Thank you. Now i know. The 320x240 pixels thing has always puzzled me. At first i thought gsmarena had it wrong but i go to newmobile and that's also what it says.

  • The screen resolution of the N71, is 240x320, not 320x240 as stated in the spec page here. The identical screen is found in the N73 & N93: 262k,240x320,2.4".My box of my N71, clearly says 240x320 also some other Nokia phones on the Nokia site spec pages also gives incorrect info, screen resolution 320x240,while it is actually 240x320,an example being the 6233.

  • Screen resolutions are described horizontal to vertical (176x220 240x320). So what i don't get is why is the N71 resolution described as 320x240. Does this mean that the sreen has more horizontal pixels than the vertical? Wouldn't pictures look distorted if that's the case? Owners of N71 please post your comments. I've always wanted this phone but i keep putting off purchasing it and i buy another phone instead because of many negative reviews and comments. But i really like this up to now so i might buy one in a week. N71 users please post positive and negative points of this phone.

  • Hi, I feel N71 is the best mobile which has all the features(like email,instant messg,music etc) which I could never find in any other mobile. Thanks to Nokia!

  • this phone is very very good,can you tell me can it support 2GB memory card? and which is better(company)

  • My N71 is I month old, a great fone. Problem is the fone keeps shutting down i.e. switching itself off. Anyone got this problem? Any solutions?

  • in the video when he connects to internet and then removes the arrow on the screen like if he is using a mouse, does he do that with the multimedia key located just under the internal screen or with the normal navigation key located below it between four keys?

  • Go fot it..it is wonderfull

  • Hi,my friend got one of this mobile.It has everything a mobile must have inside.It is the best cell phon from Nokia I suppose.thx Nokia for manufacturing such a great cell phone!

Good Sound, decent image quality, great screen, very good browser. I'm suggesting this to all who like to carry their world with them. This phone will realy add something to your personality. must have one. any doubts and suggestions anybody can ask me.

  • how can I changed the internal memory from 16 MB to a larger amount. I have a problem, when I install a software in my memory card, the amount of internal memory decreased(from 16 MB) spontaneously.why??

  • thats good

  • If you like clamshell, N71 is good. Better OS and faster than N70, better video, good display, good camera, 3G, 2 lens, radio, got everything in a Symbian phone. Compare with Samsung clamshell, N71 is slightly heavier, but held in your hand, its got the same feel as Samsung clamshell. I left my N70 for N71. I leave it open on my table n it looks like a mini laptop. Nice.

  • persian manuel to knoleg how to use this phone thanks for all manegment of nokia co.

  • i bought n71 last saturday then i dont have any major problem in this fone when its hang i just remove th batt but the battery are so weak wont last for 5 hour surfing

  • in the Philippines, this fone is always out of stock. Shop owners our discouraging me from buying this phone due to a lot of problems w/ the software. Most of them are hesitant to sell this unit due to constant requests for repair that they get shortly after the phone is purchased from their store. However, i'm still in love w/ this phone! despite the negative comments, i love everything about it: the look/style and the functions. I just hope i'll be lucky enough to get a problem free unit of N71 :)

  • For Malaysia Nokia, is there any feedback for the screen scratch pro? Is there any instruction from Nokia?

  • If you like a phone that can do more than just play music, go for N71. N71 is like a computer because in ways it behaves like a computer. It has high resolution camera that takes high quality pictures and videos, a nice stereo MP3 player and FM radio. You can also watch videos and full length movies in the N71's large screen. You can make video calls with it, surf the internet at broadband speed, play games, and download a lot of applications and games. Not to mention, you can also open your office documents in N71 like Word and Excel. So whatever drawbacks there are in N71, I think they are minor only considering the many advanced features and functions of this phone. And besides, you can have all these features of the phone at a very affordable price compared to other Nseries models which cost a pain to the pocket...

  • Problem: Everytime i reciv files via blutot mp3 format, my N71 is un able to open the file, it says ; UNABLE TO OPEN, UNPROTECTED FILE.... what shall i do???

  • My memory card got corrupted and I lost all my applications. I went to the nokia care center and they restored my memory card (default). Now I have the applications again. Does anyone of you know where to get an antivirus program for my nokia n71? thanks

  • Hey,i think that the N71 look is classy from the outside and interesting from the inside,but i just wanted to ask a question:I am really confused about buying Sonyericsson W810i or this phone,so could anyone help me?please answer.Thanks

  • Hi,can anyone help me in thsi problem with N71? I bought it about 2 month ago.But it's about 40 days My phone doesn' register in the network and I can't use it.I went to my provider and I checked that My phone is register in the netword.then I reset the farctory settings then I searched Manually network.At least I done all of this But My problem didn't solve.can any one help me in this problem?If I flash new software does it solve?

  • @ ashouhdy Hey, haven't you read the review about N71? It's a matter of taste. Some people like big phones. It's just how you look at it. If you don't appreciate N71, it's simply just because it's not your taste. People wouldn't buy this phone if they think it's ugly. In my opinion it's not ugly. I actually find this phone simple in the outside but very interesting inside. (I curently own a N91.) And FYI, the N71 was made for the middle class, to give people a choice to own a phone with the latest features at an affordable price..

  • When I got my N71, I had no problem with the "scratches" and then I put on a screen protector, and like under I weak I can see thin line scratches under a white background, and its workong on my nerves so should I remove the protector altogeter and just use a soft cloth like for your reading glasses and clean every the screen every once in a while.

  • About the problem of display. Here in italy,the first solution that they have made three months ago was the substitution of the display.As you can see in these photos ,in these days,they have found an other solution . They are going to change the small rubbers over the screws:

  • My friend has this phone and its really awesome it has everything but the only problem is that its so darn big this thing is like a laptop it has all the features of a laptop its like a pda a EXTREMELY BIG PDA great for features but not great in size so consider the size before you buy it online people ( its about 8 inches long i think and 1&half inches thick)

  • Buy the phone that best suits ur needs and wants. If you need a phone with a certain dedicated feature like music, go for N91; video, go for N90 or N93, TV, go for N92. Or if you're the type who wants it all in a device, then go for eiher of the N7x phones. Just to remind you, if you want a phone that has lots of available software downloads, go for N70. If you're after a totally new phone but only mid-class, N71 is that phone. If you're not that tech-savvy but style matters more, go for N72. Or you may wanna try N73 for good photography and other advanced multimedia features. It all depends on you.

  • really; I'm confused with all the opinions I read. Shall I buy this phone or there is another compatible phone???? please answer

  • It's really a great phone, with many and gr8 features. If i were you, I'd buy this phone rather than any other phone.

  • The best this is the best cellphone ever I like it so much it is good for every man or women Try it

  • It is really good I am using it now and I found it the best cellphone ever it is really good to the business man or women eather

  • Please help me with my problem. I am having hard time with this gadget~!! I am trying to upload the pictures from my N71 unit to PC. But when i connect the cable to unit there is an alert saying "unable to activate data transfer mode. memory card is in use by other application" Even though I have tried to close the screen display and even set the picture saving into phone memory. Yet the same alert is keep showing. what should i do???

  • i also have those darn scratches on the inside screen due to the keypads..

  • hi everyone, i have been using N71 for 3 months now. It's not the perfect phone, but still I LOVE IT! as for your inquiries, here are my answers... a. scratched screen - as it has been suggested a gazillion times, use a screen protector. This is a design flaw. =) b. slow SMS sending - you may go to the nokia website (N71 support) and download the SMS Accelerator. It indeed made SMS sending a lot faster. c. Rotating pictures - you may rotate pictures in gallery by going to EDIT then APPLY EFFECT. :) d. poor signal - i just discovered that since networks has just incorporated the 3G network, they dont have as much cell sites available yet. meaning, it is not available everywhere (unlike GSM or regular network) and since there are only a few cell sites where it's available, there's traffic. e. "memory eating" - i am experiencing it myself with my phone (phone memory and memory card) i still dont have any answer as to why this happens. others say that it's a glitch with the S60 3rd ed. i found out that there are hundreds of small files in source folder in the memory card that may be the files that's eating up the storage device. i havent tried deleting them yet.. i hope i was able to help. thanks!

  • I want to say thank you to that guy who posted the tip for increasing the speed of sms messaging. I'm in love with my N71 again!

  • i just got a brand new N71 n it doesnt impres me much.. after a month, it freezs.. i mean a lot, n i had to reformat it a few times.. waste of money for me.. i switched to sony ericsn.. performance is better.

  • with reguards to rotating images in the standard gallery app,it also does not work on my N71, but i dont care, cos i use Resco Photo Viewer, for viewing all my pics, it is a briliant app & way better than the standard gallery app..

  • i have the n71 for 3 or 4 months now and i don't have that problem (mabye is just your bad luck) , but instead i have a big problem with the marcks from the keys on the screen ...

  • very nice phone , exept the "scratches" on the inside screen (from the keyboard, on my phone). does anyone has these problem???, please reply...

  • I bought my N71 phone last three weeks ago and so far I'm contented with it. The large screen display is superb and I don't have any problem with the scratches things. I think it depends on how you take good care of your phone. With regards to the internal memory, my free space right now is about 10.50mb. I usually put all my pictures, videos and application in my 1 gb memory card. The sound quality is great and the camera is better than nokia n70.

  • there's a softare called sms accelerator that you can download from the nokia support site. they said that this will boost the speed of sending messages

  • I just bought the n71 yesterday and so far the only problem that i have encountered was I couldnt rotate the images in the gallery. I already tried using the shortcut keys for rotating images and i also tried searching for the rotate option from the menu but it was not there. Please, anyone help me...Does your n71 also have this problem? PS: the sound quality of the speaker and headset of the n71 is great, actually it is one of the best i heard so far...screen is also very clear. thanks!

  • I am very happy with my N71, no real scratches with screen problem, I also recently put on a screen protector on the external & internal screens and it enhances the picture a bit, the one main niggle I have is the really low amount of internal memory of around 10mb, I find it not sufficient, my phone is has a about 5.8mb free, memory even though all my apps and games and pics are on my 1gb memory card, what are other peoples comments regarding the internal memory size.

  • Hi, I wanna buy this phone but reading this reviews pulls me back but still i am ready to take. By covering the screen with plastic covers or scratch gaurd will help??? Can any one of u tell me howz the music clarity and radio clarity?? Is it worst or average or good or excellent??? How is the camera's picture clarity??

Guys Dont feel bad to answer these many questions. Like me many are there with half knowledge. I request u to reply me back with answers.Plzo help me out with my confusions. Thx.. My Mail Id is "[email protected]"

  • I've already used this N71 a month ago,so far okay..but for sms..always pending to sent about 4-5 minits.Why i dont know.Can somebody give some suggestion..what should i do?

  • It's a cool phone and it has a very vivid large screen. You can see a complete detail on this phone you can visit , you can link also the different reviews.

  • N71-1 is 3G capable while N71-5 is GSM-only. Same with N91-1 which has 3G and Wi-Fi. N91-5 (my phone) is a crippled version of N91-1, no 3G and no Wi-Fi.

  • I have this phone for about a month now, its a n71-1 RM-67, I'm using a "2GB Transcend MiniSD 80X" memory card and it's great(no hanging, high speed)Recommended!!! + best display (Colors and size) + good price (compered to n80, n73, n72, ...) + great camera (2MP outside, KP inside) + speaker (reasonable) + connectivities + Package (128MB MiniSD, headset, ...) + OS 9.1 - bad finishing (scratch on display because of the key pad, light leakage around the key pad, ... the making quality of SonyE and samsung are lot better!) - heavy (~139g) - dis pointing keypad - weak battery, i have to recharge it every 2 days, some times every day (this is a problem with all OS 9.1 phones, guess we need a revolution in the battery industray. * does any one know the difference between n71-1(RM-67) and n71-5(RM-112)?????????

  • hey every1.N71 is a great phone with superb sound quality and excellent picture quality however the problem with the screen is a major downfall.with the flap closed i actualy get scratches on and next to the screen.the paint on two of my buttons are coming off because of it touching the screen.my phone just got back from nokia repair centre and my new screen got scratches after the second day.very very disappointing

  • hello everybody, this week all the persons who had marked the problem of scratches on display to nokia Italy ,have been invited to send nokia n71 near the costumer centers . In the turn of little days will definitively resolved the problem .

  • to: "slow message sending." well, when u press the button for sending the message, the phone minimizes this option and lets u do other things while the message is sent.. and it isn't any problem with this.. the mechanism works just perfect...

  • to "The design looks like a duck bill. The sw hangs up and the flip cracks when you open it...sucks" >>>>> "The opening and closing mechanism, however, works perfectly. It produces a click sound so you would know when you have reached the desired position. Nokia N71 has two opened positions. The first is for video calls and the phone is not fully opened yet. We usually call this a "sitting" position since in that position the phone is made to "sit" on your desk while you are making a video call. If you go all the way, it will seamlessly open entirely." -- well, i love this phone, the player and the sound quality is just perfect, the best i heard untill now, and i saw a lot of phones believe me, the camera also perfect. it has a cool design. and also, San is perfectly right, you can remove those keypad prints on the screen by wiping the screen with a soft cloth, just like u do with u're glasses. They're not really scratches at all.

  • The design looks like a duck bill. The sw hangs up and the flip cracks when you open it...sucks

  • To those complaining scratches on the screen, I don't think those are really scratches. From time to time, I examined the screen and I really notice that there are really some prints on the screen done by the keypad. however, you can remove those keypad prints on the screen by wiping the screen with a soft cloth. to jhun you can make use use of 1gb memory card and it will work just fine. I just bought 1 gb memory card and i'm quite happy because i was able to put so many vidoes and mp3s there. with regards to sms sending and poor signal, I don't experience them so far. my phone can send sms very fast. maybe it has something to do with your location and not because of the phone.

  • Hai everyone, do anyone know, is there any feedback from Nokia regarding the "Srceen Scratching" pro? Thanks

  • Hi guys,please anyone help me,please please please.I will be thankful to you.Please reply me.I am using N72 and I want to replace it with N71.Please help me regarding the sound quality of N71 through the phone speaker and also through the earpiece.Does the speaker sounds good enough,is the sound loud and clear through the speaker and how is the sound through the earpiece,is the sound good enough.

  • guys, is there a way to back up my phone to my PC ? I'm using Vista RC2 and the PC Suite doesn't seem to work there, at least the "Contact" and "Message" section.

  • hello everyone..i have a nokia N91 and im so pride of this smarthphone everythink its perfect buth how can a add a symbol on sms or email the phone dont have a smiley...tell me did you know something more abouth that thanks a lot....kisses from MACEDONIA

  • I just wanted to know if there were screen protecters so that the keys wouldnt touch the screen? Is there any other way that anyone could prevent this from happening? Thanks...

  • 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! -is is possible to use 1G for this N71 - slow message sending and poor signal quality anyone knows how to upgrade this? e-mail me. thanks!

  • leegiggs, how to delete the installation file and cookies that u've done to your phone?thanks...

  • try using super converter.

  • Hai everyone..Can this phone play AVI file video? I try to use STOIK Video Converter to compress movie..but there is no MPEG4 or 3pg output.. Or is there any other converter can recomend? Thanks

  • Hi I got a n71 2month ego but i can't connect to computer with usb plz help me

  • to jey71: hello im to from italy, and what do you mean that they are changing the phones?n71?

  • Hi, the phone is great and i really like it a lot especially the large display. However, the memory card that was included in the package is not enough so I am thinking of replacing it. I would like to ask if its ok to buy a 1gb memory card for this phone? What brand can you suggest which is very compatible to n71? Thank you.

  • wow, great phone, highly recommended, it does everything, i just will like to know how to install games ont it?

  • jey71, are you saying that nokia is having a new release of n71?

  • i've had this phone for 1 week, and i must say i am quite satisfied with my purchase. it's definitely not a waste of money. i've installed a document editor, ebook reader, pdf reader, 5 java games, and everything still works fine. i'm still using the 128mb mini SD. I've used 60% of the phone memory and 90% of the external memory and I still haven't encountered problems. i've also put on lcd protectors on both the internal and external screens. i haven't encountered the "memory eating" problems, althought i do make sure to thoroughly empty temporary installation files and delete cookies and empty the cache regularly. i think that as with all smartphones, you need to treat this gadget like a computer. so far i'm having a blast with this phone.

  • help pls! i bought N71 yesterday and excited as i was to use it when i got home, when i tried to switch the message memory use from phone to memory card, it wont switch to memory card although it can detect the memory card. i bought the phone brand new and even the memory card was included in the package. is there some way to fix this? thanks!

  • to paul,, thanks a lot!!! =)

  • finally nokia it has decided to replace the n71 defective. Three months ago they changed display but the result was poor. Now here in Italy they replace the telephones. Thanks nokia.

  • 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.

  • I Love this phone!!! i can do anything with this phone...

  • thanks Fanouris!i did the *#7370# and it freed the memory. plus the sms accelerator is great!i love this fone again!=)

  • whats the latest version of this fone?mine is 2.0613.1.12.1

  • 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.

  • can the VGA camera be activated, i mean to be used at taking photos (like Nokia N70), without using 3G?

  • N 71 is the best phone , big display,good camera, 2 gb card support symbian 3rd edition software, and fast

  • hi... i'm a motorola user for awhile now and i was thinkin of gettin nokia n71 but reading this comments is making me think twice about buying this phone. so help me out should i get this or not.

  • can you block certain numbers from calling you on the n71?

  • I'm quite disappointed with this phone. I�m really very cautious to use it for ‎anything else other than for making calls and receiving calls, and still their I�m ‎facing some problems.‎ The mobile has following problems:‎ ‎1)‎ It hangs too often than usual, specially when receiving SMS message, or ‎when you try to play a game.‎ ‎2)‎ When typing SMS messages the screen will flicker when it goes to the ‎next line.‎ ‎3)‎ It slow when sending SMS messages. Some times it hangs in the middle ‎of the message.‎ ‎4)‎ Battery indicator is not accurate. It may indicate empty power and the ‎mobile switches off automatically, but when you restart the mobile it ‎shows more than half. This problem happens almost daily.‎ ‎5)‎ The screen easily gets scratched. I brought this phone to Nokia service center several times but always after a few ‎days same problems occurs. ‎

  • I've been used this phones for 2 month, nice screen and camera than N70/N72/N90 even they are 2 MP also. Great sound with equalizer and bass option. To bad i can't get to the next track for music player using the Handsfree ( must using the button on the phone ). I've already using miniSD about 1GB and it's works well for reading the memory card, and it's content ( songs, games, video, themes etc. I've been compared with N90/N70/N72, for changes themes N71 is quite fast than N series above which is need a minute also with the connection. Still proceed with this phones for the good and the less. So, I think it can be an option for you who want to changes your personal stylish phone. Noted : can any of you advise me which website could provide freeware games for this phones. Thanks

  • every phone is going to have their bad comments, but i might it still, still looking.

  • I'm lookin forwad 2 buy it.. but I saw lot of ppl not satisfied.. is it a general thing or just different opinions of people.. cuz its a sure thing that i dont wanna buy a bad phone

  • its the best phone in nokia i think. i have it and im only 10. the only promblem is that it hard to turn it off and on. thank you for reading my opinion

  • I need a sincere comment please... I wanted to change my N70 for a N71 because of the wonderful QVGA screen, 3rd edition Symbian and the equaliser but the 10 mb doubts me from getting it since my previous 6680 also having 10mb memory always lags especially running java apps and games. Does this phone have that problem?

  • Hi, I've been a nokia user,(N71 is my 9th nokia phone)but my latest purchase didn't satisfy me at all. I'm very dissapointed with this phone because 1, It sends SMS tooooooo slow I'm getting sleepy waiting. 2, It eats up the phone memory without me storing anything! How crazy is that?! 3, It hangs too often than usual. 4, Well, it can be avoided but the screen really easily gets scratced. I brought this phone to nokia service center to have it fixed but after a week or so same problems occurs. Now, I'm putting up with this phone's abnormalities while I'm carefully choosing the phone I'll buy next. To those who wants to buy this phone, think a million times. N71 is just a waste of money.

  • I just got n N71 and so far am really enjoying it. There is an application on Nokia's website to speed up the sending of SMS called SMS Accelerator.

  • hi. i was searching for review on n71 to see if I'm the only one experiencing certain problems with my unit. I really like the phone, had it for five months already but lately it's been sending SMS too slowly and I hate it so much. Can anyone help? It is connected to the phone or card memory? I read a post on the phong hangging while playing snakes, happened to me all the time but I figured it's connected to the battery. While playing any game, the phone usually hangs when the battery is almost empty. Hope this helps.

  • i wanna ask. does it play MP4? thx

  • Hi guys, am Austine and this is a question to all who own and are still using the N71 phone. Please can anyone tell me if it is possible to download an MP4 file that consumes 60MB to 90MB through it's Bluetooth or it's Infrared. I will be very greatful if anyone of you guys can help me with your answer. My e-mail is [email protected]. Thanks in advance.

  • HI ALl I would like to know does the screen wallpaper on N71 will fit all the screen all it just a little picture on the middle of screen like N80 did. ( imean it only have the picture appear in the center of the screen then on the tops is the time stuff like that.. So I would like to know if it fit the screen thanks... MIKE

  • Does the push to talk work with T-mobile and if so, does anyone know how I would get it to work. You can email me at [email protected]

  • please cover your displaye withe stripe

  • the phone is amazing, but there is a problem of scratches on the main screen.

  • I've been enjoying this phone ever since I got it. Just a few niggles, I run a 1 gb memory card and sometimes the phone hangs on me. My pet peeve right now is that there's insufficient protection for the main screen resulting in scratches on the screen, have since put on screen protectors for both displays. I'm just waiting for a software upgrade in hopes that all the issues i face will be solved.

  • Anyone has encounter the screen flickering issue? When you type your sms message and it goes to next line,the screen will flickering?So far,Nokia are still not able to overcome it and the answer I had from them is "Normal".Is there anyone agree to their claim?I don't deemed it as normal.I think if any user also has encounter the same problem should complain to Nokia.Otherwise, they do not treat it as "Abnormal",if no other users complain about it. Thank you!

  • this mobile phone is unique!!! No one in malta has this phone but me lol. its amazing, everyone is like "wow. whats that mobile??? where did you get that?" Absolutely fantastic Mobile PHone Two Thumbs Up NOKIA

  • Hi i just bought the n71 a week ago... it totally rocks! My only problem is those damn scratches. Actually, they're not scratches, more like dirt compressed on the screen by the keypad. The true real scratch is the one in the middle of the screen which is caused by the number '5' of the keypad which is small but deep. Other than that I'm really satisfied with the n71

  • hi everyone, i have been using this phone for a little over a week now and I love it! Yeah, there are some flaws but there are more good things than not. I was planning on buying n80 but my friend, who owns a cell phone shop, did not recommend it as it is slow. His sister had 2 units with the same issue. Let me pinpoint some things on this phone. 1. the biggest issue are the SCRATCHES. after reading reviews, i purchased a screen protector even before transfering my data from my old phone. now, i don't even have to worry about the scratch! **wink** 2. The audio is really nice but, of course, you can't actually compare it with the sony erricson walkman phones..this is simply they are supposed to be WALKMAN phones.. really nice audios.. when you use the headphones, that's when you'll see the clear stereo audio. 3. as for the question with the keypad lights turning on and off, the tiny square below the 2nd camera (for video calls) is a light detector. It regulates the keypad lights. It's one of those power saving feature of nokia. I've tried it by flashing a light on the detector on a pitch dark room and the keypad lights indeed turned off. 4. here are the issues that I am experiencing: -the phone freezing when playing snakes, it has happened to me as well..but not always - some pictures from my old 6670 that i transfered to this one cannot be shown as thumbnails. I have to zoom it to see them. (these are all JPEG) - the screen flickering when the text message that i'm typing goes to the next line. ' ....I have contacted nokia about these and am just waiting for a reply. but still, I LOOOVE THIS PHONE!

  • i am going to be crazy the battery stand only for one day & i recharge it every day. is that normal????????

  • Does anyone know how to activate the push to talk? -PTT is network dependent

  • Does anyone know how to activate the push to talk?

  • i've bought my nokia n71 a week ago. I finally realize that n71 is far better than n70, even the price is quite cheaper than n70( it's about $50 lower) in the place where I live. i'm not worry about the scratches, because i've bought the scratch guard. The system is quite slow but still acceptable. the model looks very good. I am very proud of it. very happy user

  • Hi, I have an N71, and i am having a big problem with it. I don't use the phone memory at all for anything, but somehow, it still gets used up. ALL 16MB of it, to the point that i had to have it reformated at a nokia center. Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks

  • Well for me, using Nokia N71 is a pitty. I mean I cannot even play a pre-installed game "SNAKES" just because ma N71 hangs in approx. 1.5 minutes after I launch the game. And then Its stuck, no keys would work, not even the power key. The only solution to it is that I simply remove the battery and then place it back in n boot my device again to get going. Another problem is with the keypad which is making scratches on the Main LCD that looks awefull. Other than that the keypad backlight goes off very often during the phones being used. It was my own choice to buy a Nokia and N71 for that matter but now I am very ashamed of myself because I simply trew my money in fire!!! Please suggest me what can I do now?

  • its me again, i have decided to buy the phone afterall,ill make sure that its sleeps on my bed with me to avoid stretches, i cant resist it any longer, i know its not a beautifull phone like L.G Chocolate which turned out to be a bimbo phone accompanied by 8800 Nokia phone that looks so pretty on the outside, when its got none of the amazing features that these huge phones has,ill go for it,either way am owning it tomorrow,

  • i feel very dissapointed with everybodys comments,i wanted to buy this phone so bad, and since my friend's got n91 i needed something different, it really is dissapointing and i dont think i should go ahead and buy the phone with the problems being issued or perhaps i should wait, please advise

  • i want to buy a nokia N71,is it really good phone than N70? but how come the phone will get scratch is that bcoz of the keypad?can we avoid it?

  • hey! how can you see movies on n71??? e-mail me please!!!!! thanks

  • this could be a good solution...but remember that on my phone there aren,t only the key scratched on display,but you can si also the"space"between the groups of key!!!!!!

  • Hey guys!...I don't know if some of you have seen a different version of N71 like what I've just found a couple of days ago through the internet...I'm gonna paste the link to that site on the bottom of this...By the way, the N71 featured here, I'm not sure if it is a chinese version, has "LARGER KEYPADS" and it looks better than the usual N71 that we see...Check it out.

  • can anyone comment about the startup time, from power up to the point that you can make a phone call?

  • it is a gret phone. i'v buy it a few days ago and is great. but i have 1 problem: the usb cable is nut working anymore and i wonder why can anybody help me? please give me sugestions. thanks

  • im planning to buy n71 0r n80.but n80 is quite expensive..what do you think..is it ok to ahve n71? is it good? anybody tell me pls..thanks coz wanna buy tommorow.

  • The key pad scratch to the phone LCD problem it could be due to the silicon stopper or hinge.I noticed that and I had my problem solved by changing the cover hinge with free,as is still in warranty.Another common part that the user has to check is your video call function, as I encounter the party can't see the caller image and this problem was solved by the service with replaced the faulty camera.The unpleasant experince I had with nokia service centre is they can't solve the LCD screen flickering problem particulary at the new text message menu and some of the others menu function.After changed a new LCD display,the problem is still there and I am still waiting for their solution.However, is a very disappointed answer they claimed is like this and that and I do not agreed with it, as the N73 and N71 are using the same OS version.Hope that this can be resolved by Nokia service centre soon. Unhappy user,Singapore.

  • Hi i am going to buy this phone. BUT are scratches should hold me to buy n71 ? the main reason to not buying n70 is the screen rez and i realy like n71(good price now). please help me if you have experience with n71 .tanx

  • itzit the audio adapter inculded in the package when we purchase N71??

  • about resolution taken picture

  • I also have a problem with the keys scratching the screen. And has anyone ever managed to get the flash player to work? It either displays an empty block on a web page, or says the flash file is corrupted.

  • I am searching for a software that can resize .avi files so I can play it on my N71. Can anyone suggest what can I do?

  • The sratches on the screen basically should be within the warranty terms as it is a fault in the design and NOT user caused. In the future I'd suggest you buy/haggle from the retailer a small plastic piece to cover the display. It'll take a bit from the screen's sharpness but protects the screen from the scratches. Or you could attach some pads to the lid to make the lid rest a bit higher from the body. Easy little tricks to make the phone last.

  • well you please Help me people!?? The phone is great in everything inlcuding camera,mp3 and even the options but something weird is going on.. I downloaded some themes from a site and they are .sis then i started installing them in the phone 2 themes installed then when i tried to install the rest it said "This file is not supported" and it cancel the installation..The problem is all those themes in the same site and my sister could of install them in her phone N72 i don't know what happened...Please somebody help!! You can send me an email [email protected]

  • This phone is particulary rocks i got this phone 3 days ago and i cant see any problem as some of the people are talking, guys the problem is how you can take care of the phone because the phone will not take care of itself so i think it depend on the hands which are using the phone which can give a long time good phone.

  • i love the phone, i don't mind the size, i guess having small phones for quite some time bored me out... one question though, i read in the review that there's an anti virus for this phone, is it included in the cd with the pc suite or do i have to download it from somewhere. thanks!

  • can this phone can support 2gb? [email protected]

  • I've had mine for 3 weeks. Initially, i had problems accidentally pressing the neighboring buttons for the scroll key. Its a bit deep and not as tactile as I would want it. Takes a little getting used to but its not a problem now. Other than that... I think the phone is fantastic. Would definitely recommend.

  • Can the phone be charged when connected to a PC using USB ?

  • I love it! Iv had it a while now and it hasnt got a scrach or anything! I love it!

  • i bought my n71 2 days ago... i noticed that my phone's display would sometimes flicker like it would go off but then my fone is still ok. umm... what do you think this happens? do i need to go to nokia center? i really love my fone but i just want to know if my problem with the fone is normal or not.

  • can somone please tell me can you go HIDE for the madia player???? [email protected]

  • can someone please tell me what is the lenght of this phone

  • does anyone know if this phone is compatible with isync from apple?

  • I think it's a very good looking phone, it's a bit heavy, n after reading the reviews on this phone, I found a small scratch on my screen too but shall use a scratch guard..till that time I'l keep it open on my desk:)...I tink it's worth it..I love the camera..the sound isn't as good as sony ericsson, but not bad either!

  • Great phone! Excellent Media player ! Reasonable fast! GREAT Web Browser! BUT the screen has developed a thin scratch. I have to use a scrath gaurd. Two silicon stoppers (on the top flap or the bottom) could've really helped in doing away with the "Scratching Problem". I must say it's big design flaw by nokia. The beauty of Nokia N71 is its huge 36X49inch screen and seeing a ugly scratch on it after 2 days of using it is a big dissapointment.....anywayz u can't get everything u want.

  • nokia N71 is very good phone

  • i would like to know if this phone can do syncrhonize? your answer is appreciated. thanks

  • does this phone's camera have a zoom ???

  • hi guys .. i got the phone and after about a month of using it .. scratches started to appear on the screen. my guess is that the keypad hits the screen forming a straight line... thank god i got it with warrante

  • When I start my N71 camera (2 MP) in a room or closed environment with automatic mode, it show a green effect to the image. I just want to know how to solve this so that I can take normal saturation pictures in a room. Except this N71 is fantastic !!!!!!

  • i bought this phone a week ago, and i love it.problem is,i found scratch marks the next day. now,it kind of looks pretty much like a straight line. if you look closely,it really looks as if the scrathes were made by the separator between the navigation pad and the number pad

  • omg...this phone here is driving me nuts alright..it's so laggy..and the screen get scratched easily..while the camera quality wasn't too gud compare to others..the battery lifetime is so short...kinda disappointing :(

  • got the phone two days ago.. for indian rupees 21000 got deal or bad? how to convert avi videos to the ones compatible in the phone? recommend some video convertors and players...

  • here in the philippines,the price of nokia's phone also drop easily after only few months especially when a new model is coming out or when the model is not that saleable. unlike samsung which maintain its price for a very long time, so long that newer models with far better features are sometime cheaper than the old one.

  • ugly scratch on the screen. i like this phone but i'm really mad about this. my new phone is for sale. shame on you nokia

  • Hi guys , i am from Turkey , I have boght this phone 2 weeks ago..The only problem i have is the scratches on the screen..when it in my pocket the keypad scratches the screen..Alrady there are 3 little scratches..They can be seen on white background..I am thinking about buying a scratch stopper film for the screen..Goodbye everybody...

  • have found it sim free at onedaymobile.com & couple of other site but still not available in uk as yet by usual retail outlets,,will have to see what the auguat catalogues fro carfone,,link etc come out..

  • yes maybe you're right.. candybar shape is more popular in indonesia..don't know why. anyway if there were only a few people who use it, it would be cool. i own a rare phone. not like N70..gees.. almost all people have it. it sounds cheapy.

  • maybe because it's a relatively large clamshell phone. it's not as popular as candybar shape phone in Indonesia isn't it ?

  • last time it was about US$460 here in indonesia.. and today when i check it is about US$420 here.. why the price was dropped so rapidly??? i wonder..is it a bad phone or what?? btw, for you who have bought it..how's the speaker phone? or the output of the music player? is it nice, average or great? thnx

  • now days scratch guard screens r in the market.yes i m usin n71 n likin it.these scratches r bad so use scratch guard screen.they r cheeeeeeeeeeeap

  • Excellent phone! It has everything you want! For those who ask about scratches and the quality of the speaker�. Yes, there are some scratches on the internal screen (made by the numeric keys), but don�t worry, you will never notice them because they only appear when there is white background�.. The quality of the speaker is brilliant! It is very, very loud, even more with the media equaliser!!!!!!! Highly recommended!!!!! And DON�T worry about the scratches! You will never notice them! Only, if you think about them, you will notice them.. Seriously!!

  • Yes you are right my friend!Anyone having problem with scratches in the internal screen?It is really important for us to know!

  • As you can see in the N71 pictures section, this phone has been highly evaluated by the users. But my main concern still remains - the reports on iremovable scratches on the internal screen (made by the numeric keys). Can any of you who already used N71 confirm or deny?

  • this phone is so unique, so unbeliveble. I think that the people from nokia are crazy. I like this phone so much. What I can say: very nice phone

  • most likely next year around spring/summer..

  • not bad not good too but the phone i like most is 3315

  • i dunno wot all u people r goin on about the 4n still cant b bought in any uk phone shop! orange, vodaphone, 3 ,none !

  • Im using it for the past one month. I didnt find any fault in it. the design is good, Handy when compared to N90 Series. Audio clarity is also good when compared to other Nokia Series Mobiles. Audio clarity is clear when using Headphones. Over all Good design, Good Features Good Performance.

  • What do you guys think of the bat life compare to the N70 and 6280 thinking of it but I saw the life on the N80 and am a sceptic after that. please please please help need to know by the 11-07-2006

  • i wish to record some of my unpleasant experiences with the N71: 1) the gallery/images & video will stutter upon selection. when a picture is chosen it will jerk before displaying. if a picture is backed, a similar jerkiness is also seen. this is irritating to the eye, but according to staff at the nokia centre the fault is inherent in this model. shouldn't the new symbian o/s be better? 2) voice reception is acceptable but not as clear as the N70, my previous model. the quality of tone wavers and fades from time to time according to environ. 3) headset is not ideal. there is a slight buffering noise in the background. the end point does not fit well into the radio slot, allowing frequent adjusting to the connection. 4) after about 37 days into using this model the covers are giving me problems. slight pressure, as i sometimes keep it in my trouser pocket, will automatically switch off the set. to turn the mobile on again, several presses on the on/off button is required. also, this does not guarantee that it will continue to function as per normal for the set, when opening or closing or slight depressing of the keypad cover happened, disables the mobile again. it is indeed frustrating to constantly keep the N71 alive. 5) after web browsing and exit, the 3G/double arrows still shows. this ought not to be the case and the system should return it to the larger font, "3G". let's say a user is unaware of this, can you imagine the bill at the end of the month incurred for non online usage? i had to exit twice before my connection was terminated. 6) in some areas, reception can be down and out for an unspecified length of time. this is not the case with my previous phone. i like the design and feel of this model, but in a way i am very disappointed with its slack performance.

  • not even a month of using the phone and it had to go for repairs. there is a problem with te network reception. but still love the phone

  • n71 it has 3 g umts suppot and can offer fast data tranfer via gprs and edge besides the 2 mega pixels camera there is one camera for video call.display of the n71 is really very good high quality camera with flash made me to buy this.

  • Can some of you users please post an input on N71's audio quality n quality of it's music player ?

  • Wow a flip phone with large screen, I wonder if it has LARGE FONT . . .

  • I would like to know from forum about the speaker of N71.Since i am looking forward to buy it please tell me about it

  • this 4n still isnt available in the uk shops!

  • i like this phone but since its expensive ill buy 6131 instead... huhuhu...

  • very nice and clear. symbyan.mobiletheme;mobile9 with google & i"m lucky. mess with agilemessenger. f-secure. and mai phone work fast. in principal it's a matter of taste

  • sigh..the more i read..the more i feel afraid to buy N71.. some says it's more for males.. but i want it..though i'm female. is it ok for female? and i really have to make sure bout its sound.. does is suck?? and i heard that only a few people are interested in this phone.

  • u can find themes at www.zedge.net

  • this 4n still isnt available in the uk shops !

  • for grograms,games and themes there is a very good site www.series60v3.com

  • Hello Dear Nokia N71 User friends! I own an N71 and Im interested where I can find programs, applications, themes. Any websites you people know? And does anyone know how to take the phone apart?

  • i wonder where to download the themes for this phone...

  • the music mp3 quality is not as loud or clear as 3230 or that twist phone.. i haven't tried the ACC file as my ringtone tho but mp3 yea.. i don have any hearing problem but to me, if i play it to level 7 or 8, then it'll b ok.. sumting wrong wif my speaker? n one more thing.. no links for the symbian downloads? or java applications which is applicable for this fon? i'm itching to sell this fon if there's still not symbian ware which is applicable..

  • the model is really nice..and it looks complete on fitures. but umm..i'm curious bout its audio player?? does it sound nice?? coz i ever bought nokia 3230 that's advertised as Music Phone, but it sucks! so if the audio player of N71 was cool, I'd buy it! thnx!

  • I want to know what kind of symbian nokia n91 have? v9 like N91, N80 or v8 like n70...?

  • ive been eyeing for this phone since last week-and i finally bought one yesterday! It has everything on it, tnaks nokia...Now my only concern: I hope it wont depreciate easily! Knowing Nokia phones they easily upgrade models.....Its nice if it stays in the market with that fixed price for a while so that it wont come out common or passe....Thanks..

  • can this phone use mp3 or acc as ringtones? I think im getting this phone

  • very smart phone !!!!!!!!!!!!!! its look different when u hold!!!!!!!!!!!! good speakers and voice quality!!!!!!!!!!!!1 looks like phone !!!!!!!!!!!!! nokia u r still doing great but u have to do the best to survive in this comp market

  • i have tried downloading themes from both mobile9 and zedge, eventhough it says they're themes for N71, but it is unsupported when tried to download/install, it says sis files unsupported. any ideas guys?

  • err.. I mean S80... heh

  • Most does not mean all. Samsung, Panasonic, Siemens, and Sendo also have S60 phones. I'd say that's not quite proprietary. If you go beyond S60, many SE phones use S90 for their PDA style phones. So like I said, Symbian > all proprietary OS :)

  • Samsung also has S60 phones.

  • if seen from point of view that most phone that uses Symbian is only Nokia, can it be called a propietary OS also ? hasn't seen many phone uses Series 60

  • Only way to support .sis files is with Symbian Smart phones... SE are just a bunch of "dumb" phones. In other words Symbian > all proprietary OS (if you can even call them real OS's).

  • Sony Ericsson phones provide a talk time of 7hrs plus.The audio quality of the walkman series is better than any NOKIA phone.The only problem with Sony Ericsson is is does not support .sis files.

  • i think the nokia N71-1 would be great if debranded. nokia have to many restrictions. and the (i think its called) 3rd party apps should be testet more before they sell it! that cool 3d snake game looks so great.. until it freezes.. it makes me mad when it does that.. i have to take out the batt. to be able to use the phone..

  • Used it, found excellent, every thing in it. Excellent yasee machine

  • This is the best Phone Looks are WOW and different 2mp cam is working well I like the shape of this phone and it is tough phone .

  • how does the speaker phone work??? i mean the quality of it??????????

  • no i don't think N91 rocks! maybe sucks! cause of battery problem.

  • is it a samsung model?!!! yes where is macro?

  • i have tried downloading themes from both mobile9 and zedge, eventhouhg it says they're themes for N71, but it is unsupported when tried to download/install, it says sis files unsupported. any ideas guys?

  • to civilized beast,,ive looked at a few places who say the n91 is only qcif but if youve had the device & its cif i cant argue..the n91 still had the 176 x 208 regular nokia standard res screen & was also put off with people on about the hdd so settled on this one(n71) & only not bought it yet as the 10 mb internal memory cud be a struggle as it was with my 6680+6630 they only had 10 mb internal memory.I am using s/e w900i at moment & its getting awkward with its size(bulk) & video altho 30 frames per second is very speckly & banding type effects due to its 3gp format.THE n93 is what i really want but thinking about the w900i & the n93 weight i think ill go for this n71..All people i know & mates etc hate the look of the phone so i will be the only person in my group with one BUT there again i like clamshells

  • where is macro? where is autofocus? just another symbian stupid-phone :@ Sony Ericsson RULES !!!

  • @kenny both n91 and n71 have cif video recording. . And n91's videos are much clearer than n80's. . I had n91 but due to its hdd problems i opted for n80. .

  • Hello i speak english a little bit. I have a n71. Someone know how i can watch tv? Have i buy something more? Or i have to do a contrat or what? Thankss

  • to andrew: thanks, i wantred to know if its sound quality is good than k750 and e60 second i asked that what is the speed of bluetooth not edge

  • yup u can still play songs even if u close the flip.. i had this fon... love it to bits!! too bad it doesn't support most of the applications which u can find... but, hopefully, they can create it soon.. 8/10..

  • will the music play even after we close this phone i.e. fold it plz sumbody reply fast

  • to john: 1) nice sound quality, but some handsets have better. 2) it's about 234kbps. answered? I hope so. it's an amazing phone, the best I ever had until now. I'm getting money to get a Nokia E70. so much better! but so much expensive too ��"

  • n91 has only qcif video recording in silly 3gp format...n71 has 4 x resolution video recording in the better mp4 format at cif resolution..some may think that it has twice the resolution but it is 4x if you actually draw it out qcif will fit 4x into a cif resolution..hence qcif(quarter cif).sounds complex but its correct so n71 has superior video recording compared to n91 & n91 is more music orientated

  • Difference in video recording between N71 and N91.Which is better?Any help would be appreciated.

  • I�ve just bought it!!!!!! Excellent! Best phone ever! Stable & fast software � brilliant display - very good camera (image & video) � loud music player � Very good radio � easy communication with pc suite � etc. Highly recommended for those who like clamshells!! I used to have candybar phones and now I am very happy with my choice! Don�t wait any more! Buy it!!!!

  • Need your opinion - 6125 or N71 ? Wiil I survive in the US with just 900/1800/1900 frequency bands ? Or should I go for the quad band but non symbian 6125 with the poorer screen etc ?

  • hi! it s adam hi-tech phone i ever use by nokia

  • i have few questions to ask 1) does it have good sound quality 2) at what speed it transfers data via bluetooth

  • when will the review of this little wonder be available.......? have been waiting too long......

  • the new range of nokia phones symbian does not support older symbian application hence the old themes will not work for the new range

  • Its a Great phone probably the Greatest Flip Phone by Nokia.Well Nokia missed by not providing Wi Fi or WLAN feature.any ideas how to get wifi from the phone?? Thanks.

  • Which network does the N71??? Will O2 do it??

  • N71 having 3rd edition symbian operating system does nt support the old version softwares so to download new themes visit: www.mobile9.com and for softwares it is www.funmaza.com thanx

  • The first, i cant speak english a lot. im going to buy n71. i have 6630 now, can i watch tv on 6630? If i can not, how i will be watch tv on n71? thanks, my msn is [email protected]

  • I had this phone for a week...It's the ultimate flip phone!...If you're into flip phones with great multimedia experience, then get the N71. I definitely recommend this.

  • hi guys i now have the n71 for 3 weeks and the phone is good .. but whenever i try to install a theme (.sis) file it indicates that the file is not supported.. if anyone has an answer to this problem please send me an email thanx

  • hey everyone.. do u guys have any idea where can i download agile msn for nokia n71? thanks for ur perusal

  • its everything!

  • I have been using N71 for 2 weeks now and everything about the phone is great from functionality to style. The screen is a definite plus as compare to N70. Sound is clear and crispy using the phone speaker. When using headphone, sound is very acoustic and bass is punchy. I mush say it can easily rivals any Sony high end personal audio system. N71 is also packed with many useful functions, from FM radio to movie player. You can even view your Excel document via this phone! You name it, and you got it! I especially like the second camera as it is a flip phone, the phone can stand by itself while taking your own picture and you can see the actual picture layout through the main screen. Using the music player while the phone is in closed position, the title of the song currently on air is elegantly displayed on the second screen. For those of you who is look for the most extreme style in hand phone, N71 is bound to make an impression and make every head turn.

  • Can i know N71 & N70 which one is so nice to use?What difference?Thanks...

  • i need to know, whn anybody calls u does the no. appear on the external screen

  • If you want to see a review for nokia n71 go here It also has a video review!

  • Come on guys what are you waitnig for to review this phone???N 72?You really dissapoint me...A lot of people wait to see if this is a good phone or it has any problems...

  • I'm looking for a new phone and come across this one, was just wondering if any-one could help me out and answer a few of my questions. I would like to know if this phone can hold music, and if so how much. Also if it can do video's and high quality pictures. Does it come with a blue tooth device so i can put all my stuff onto the computer? And lastly, how much is it? Thank-you

  • i bought this model two days ago, replacing the N70 i had for 6 months. 71 is indeed a better improvement over 70 with a few noticeable improvement over text size display, main screen resolution, camera function, added music features, overall manufacturer body make, ease of use, etc. the external screen display can be improved but i suppose nokia only wanted it to serve a simple purpose and thus the deliberate "grainy (term used by some)" look, thus giving it an unmistakable dreamy look. only rudimentary information like battery bar, signal strength and time suffice in this instance. the keypad is a new robust addition, with firm feelings felt, unlike the 70 when one can find shaky individual keys. a few hours of usage and i found myself liking this new introduction. battery usage is acceptable with 2 full days before recharging. there are many things i can go through but the best experience is discovering what a reliable companion this 71 is: a satisfying, good mobile phone.

  • why the hell dont u review this phone gsmarena?? do we have to wait for ages.. n guys help me out.. i wanna buy a good smart phone.. should it be n70,6280, n71samsung, or any sony erricsons..waitin for ur answer guys

  • hi evryone thanks alot for this great effort , really very nice site but if u plz i need to know how to remove the memory card outside my handset (n71)thnx

  • Have this phone since a week. The external screen is indeed quite bad very low resolution and somehow face a problem with the external screen when i switch the music player on. Camera quality is good. the keypad is a little uncomfortable to use though. but if u want a flip phone then the n71 is a good choice. The speakerphone clarity is good but feel the N80 will be a better choice

  • I wonder what's keeping them (gsmarena) long to review this phone... Pls release the review soon... Anyway, juz wanna know if the video quality is as good as N91, Samsung D600 & N80... ^_^

  • yeah, if u got the stacks!!

  • N80 is better. 3mp camera, wlan, more internal memory, symbian 9. pls go 4 it

  • i wanna ask if the outside cover is plastic??

  • what do you thing....n71 or n80?do you thing 200 euros more for the n80 should be a good deal or the n71 for less 200 euros should be beter.... help me !best regards joao

  • wat a crappy design...a tea bag would b better looking than this..nokia plz consider putting tat extra hours in ur drawing board ...

  • I regret buying this phone. Simple, direct and conclusive statement. The operating system stalls. Seems Symbian 3 is still under development and this phone makes us guinea pigs as users. The operating system is also slow. In addition, the navigation keypad is flush with the phone. Every time I use it, I end up pressing the red hang-up/cancel button by mistake. And my fingers are not oversized. The phone may be full of features, but using it is a nightmare. I must also add I am not thrilled with the external display. It is extremely low-tech. Sony Ericsson's simpler clamshells have a better external display. I just think Nokia have become too commercial that they do not put enough thought into their design. Another feature that would be nice to have is Recurrent Alarm, whereby I do not have to keep setting the alarm daily. The only thing going for this phone is the design. Looks good and impressive. But that is only in front of others. For me, it is a headache using it.

  • review this phone gsmarena

  • Guys, I just bought N71 and been using it for 2 days now. I must say I am a Nokia and flip phone freak. I have been waiting and wanting to get this phone since end of last year when Nokia announced it. So far I am very satisfied witht the phone. Everything of the phone is great and I just can't get my hand off the phone. To you guys out there, if you are a flip phone freak, N71 is a must look for you.

  • battery life is short, speaker sounds very ordinary, not stereo, screen is just ok

  • Really like this model, it looks cool and the features are great. But while reading these posts I have really been concerned about the construction quality (display scratches, small keys, battery cover playing, etc.). Can smn provide a solid information on all this?

  • if u guys like flip phones this is the best option

  • I dont know what this joey guy is talking about, the phone looks exactly like in the pictures. Some sites even show the comparison of the phone to a credit card so do your research well before you post nonsense on this site

  • In my opinion..all the pictures nokia has released of the N71 before it came out were all fake. The phone looks nothing like the pics. Its big,fat,heavy. The pics Nokia sent were pics of a graceful,slim N71 but now that its out it looks nothing like it

  • hey RK can you deliver more information about this phone cause, a lot of people want to buy this one.

  • does it have xpres-on casings??

  • Hello you guys, I just had a phone for a week an i like it very much. I start a blog and review this N71 in detail. You can check it out at I just start a review and hope it will finish within this week. If you have question, feel free to leave a comment there.

  • Yess GSMArena review this phone plzzzzzzzzzzz

  • Can this phone holds 1,000 numbers? Most Nokia can take 500 only.

  • Hi!Guys I'm from cebu I have in my hand the N71 and I bought for only Php25,000.00 and I love these unit it's so femine except keypad if you have big hands I recommeded not to choose the unit. To those want to get the new themes compatible to N71, here is the website:www.mobilethemes.com but you have to register first and don't worry it's free. For gsmarena I would like to ask why is it my opinion post last only at the same time but the nextday I check there's no more.

  • Come on gsmarena review this phone

  • i just got this phone too and it is excellent and it seems very durable

  • To Cezar or anyone from the Philippines who wants to know more abt n71, I'va had it for two wks and well unfortunately it has some scratches now at the display bec it somehow touches the keypad, that's rather careless for Nokia. But, the phone is amazing, display is better than n70(my bro owns one), music is better than 6280. It has some of the functions of n80 (when you don't want to accept a call it can automatically send a text msg why you rejected the call), can view ofc docs, good 2M pixel camera comparable to SE (except the autofocus), has advance sequence mode, also has a very useful multimedia key (for shortcuts if you don't want to use the active standby mode). I can live with the scratches, I just placed a screen protector to prevent more scratches. I love this phone, it's a good clamshell phone fr Nokia and it's has a cover display...

  • If you think your keypad is bad now, wait just a few days untill it starts feeling and sounding as if there was a layer of badly glued scotch tape underneath or as if you spilled a glass of water with plenty of sugar on it (especially the pen/menu/cancel row)... :((( Pitty a display, which is, indeed, excellent, a very good (IMO) camera and a cool operating system are integrated into such a flimsy handset!

  • brought mine on Sun, good display, but keypad too small, and pressing feels hard IMO.

  • an awesome mobile i luv it is it available on cingular??????????????? som 1 tell me

  • Is it really that bad or are those only specific cases? im really hoping gsmarena staf comes out with a detailed review of this phone... maybe they can adress the problem

  • Thank you very much Xenomorph! The battery is weak as always in Nokia phone. I wanted to ask about the keypad touching the dispay, cause i saw one unit in a shop and the display was already scratched by keypad...weird...such a ignorance. Thank u for ur information! Maybe I'll go again for Sony Ericsson. Maybe W810i, cause I don't use 3G, but EDGE or I'll wait for K800.

  • @orange: I have it and I've tested its battery life in extreme use / average use / next to none use conditions with according hardware settings. The results I got were VERY dissapointing: best - 2 days; worst - 18 hours. Also, when buying a N71, carefully inspect its finish (no, not the finnish guy who assembled or sold it to you!:). Mine has inacceptable panel gaps (top cover) and unaligments (battery cover) for a device in this class and at such a price. Also, when folded, the top cover rests on everything BUT the silicone pad designed for this purpose. Thus, the screen cover touches the keypad panel, which, after just a few days will result in unremovable scratches on the screen. Overall impression would be (for me at least) that Nokia is getting very sloppy and their arrogance and neglect towards customers has reached sky-high.

  • For someone who has it already: How much last the battery in stand by with average use. Please email me or answer on this forum. Thanks!

  • now this phone arrived at philippines, but theres one nokia phone similars it's functions: the 6280. i dont care about the symbian coz i have a PDA(windows OS) and a PC (windows xp2) but the functions and performance(sounds,pictures quality similar to SE phones). is this phone way better than 6280? 6280 boast up with VGA video recording but with only 15fps only. and is cheaper than this one i think. 3G is now available in here so guys which will be better? 6280 or N71? Neway how much is the price of N71 today? also 6280? please reply

  • Who has N71 plz tell me if the display of n71 it's better than N70 display.

  • Any one knows what is the screen size (in terms of inches) of N71? Thanks.

  • a cool mobile thoug i like it planning to buy it is it better than n80?? som body tel me

  • This phone is being sold at the price US$475 in Bangkok. I m interested. Anyone can tell me tho about the quality of photo comparing to 6270 or even N70, sound (by earphone and speakers). I m now using 6270 but really like clamshell mobile.

  • Hi guys i want to buy this phone, but can anyone tell me if the internal antenna is under the battery like the noka 6170? your help is needed-thanks!

  • my comment is that i want a clamshell symbian phone up to date so not 6260 or panasonic x700 & here it is,,, BUT theve used the n70 joypad (5 way controls) and its to small for me to operate even wen playing my timewaster simple games etc and only 10 mb internal memory which is not enuf,,,WHY,,because it wasnt enuf memory in my 6680 & ended up out of memory a lot & having to delete programmes...WHY do firms increase there models or bring out newer versions phones & drop back on quality???S/E had done it as well making there new k800 thingy only qcif recording,,,SAMSUNG working backwards in there d models with lower resolution camera & so on...The customer is very savvy these days & things are supposed to progress forwards taking into account the time these phones come to market they often outdate themselves which is so damn true & with hspda on the horizon nokia should be releasing models now in time for the rollout?May now go for n90 and carry on using my bumbag to carry my phone in as getting them out my jean pockets is chaffing my knuckles enuf to cause bleeding even tho ive gone up a size jean to try & accomodate!!!i still think wi-fi is a gimmick as ive searched my region & there rare & cost a minimum of �5 an hour & suck the battery down fast..PLEASE tell me if the next statement untrue but samsung z500 is 3g but tiny so i think nokia shud start to reduce the size of the symbian platform as its obvious that its the size kiiler in these phones even windows do tiny fones & 3g can only be a small unit(z500).

  • After the release N71 many questions has arised,one of which: what is the best 2MP mobile?Is it N90,6270,6280,N71,or....?Can GsmArena gives her fans the answer?

  • this is indeed a cool n nice phone... not ugly at all... i like it very very much....

  • in all of nokia N series at the moment this is the one im dying for to have! it looks fabulous!!!!!!!!!

  • this is one of the ugliest phones ive seen in my life... the buttons are so small... the overall design is technologic in a weird way... not one of the best hps to buy if u wana impress ur friends at first glance...in singapore, its just being launched n its arnd s$900+... more expensive than the better-looking and more sophisticated n70 n n80 duo... spend ur money elsewhere... anything but this... seriously...

  • I request gsmarena to give us a review of the N71 ASAP. Also, im confused which one to buy between N91, N71 & N80. Can gsmarena have a detailed comparison between them? Thanks.

  • i owned n70 ,and i plane to get the n71 in next couple of week(wait until the price drop )i love this phone.Nokia is always my first choice

  • Very nice phone, I have it in my hands right now. I think that it looks cool, not ugly at all. Nice screen, easy to use. The battery lasts for about 2,5 days with "normal" use (30 min. talking, sms and taking som pictures). It sounds good - especially with my own headphones (adapter is in the package). I paid about 430$ for it (in Germany). I tested a lot of phones in the last few month and I LOVE this one (better than SE W810i, BQS EF 81 or Nokia N91!!!!)

  • Its the cutest set. I like its feature. But compare to its salary its not like that much better. However I wish to purchase one. So send me more details.

  • When should we expect N71 review on GSMARENA?

  • it's only Php 24,500 now...

  • Its available now at Startel Ctr Pt Sabah..088230769(NK Warranty)..Normal function...comfortable on hand... modern stylish...Good sound system..

  • i want know the difference between N70,71????????

  • It's available in the Philippines for Php27,500. I checked the current rate and it is equal to USD 534.50. I hope this clears it up....

  • Although I am havng difficulties finding themes for the phone, I am sure soon there be lots of it. Good main display resolution but the cover display needs more improvement. Hoping to see more applications for s60 3rd edition.

  • I bought N71 and I can say that it really gave me a good multimedia experience, it has a good music player and 6 equalizer settings. Pretty good earphones too. And the earphone adaptor wherein you can use your own 3.5mm stereo headset really satisifies the music lovers. Great calmshell mobile for Nokia!

  • NOKIA N71 is around $550 to $620 U.S Dollars on E-Bay...

  • 123

  • The phone is already available here in the Philippines. The price is P27,000, which is about US$350.

  • this definitely is going to cost a lot, but it`s so cool

  • Its out in singapore . selling with %gst at SGD 848 ... around USD 536.7 Exchange rate 1.58 usd = 1 sgd

  • selling ard $850 in Singapore.

  • i now have this phone in ma hand its fukin coool 1 problemo its 2 big and rest of the things are alrigth

  • i heard N71 will be out in brunei in less than a week time.. and the expected price is BND$858.00...

  • This is considered one of the newest mobiles having the most moderate features from the N series yet the best multimedia phone.But the question still lies about its price.Does anybody has any idea?

  • this phone is available now thats what www.nseries.com says

  • Good Mobile phone to have and very durable.

  • Does Nokia N71 supports RDS function in fm radio? if not, maybe i can update it by a program?

  • THE phone is available on the nolia europe site!!!!!!!! yo gsmarena, wake up

  • @ sam and ..D.. do you know what an IP address is? apparently, you and that ..D.. person are the same and you cannot deny that since both of you have the same IP address

  • OKAy

  • @ Aberdeen ofcourse I am Filipino, how do I know places like Makati, Baguio and Manila; Megamall, Glorietta and Festival Mall if I am not from the Philippines? N71 has really changed keypad....very nice work Nokia...it looks very elegant. The picture posted here should be changed I guess because it is a prototype.

  • man that phone is so ugly it coms free in a box of 'captain crunch'

  • Please DON�T START VOTING a phone anymore, if you haven`t used it so far. It`s a lot helpful for us (the people who want to get it), to find out whether the cell phone is good or bad, AFTER anyone has begun using it. Thank you!

  • lol, a friend of mine just came from Italy and requested him to buy me this device. I have it already in my hands. It's not ugly as some people claim. Nokia managed to redesign the keypad. Screen is very beautiful. The picture that you see posted here is an old prototype pic. Very nice. So I suggest you need to see the final model before some people here post what they "feel" about this device. @Aberdeen - so where are the contact numbers of this so called distributor you are claiming from Baguio? you can't even provide the email address huh?

  • Tiong San Harrison, Baguio City

  • Noooooo! your on to me. truthfully what it is, is an opinion, mabey a useless one but still mine. But still it is sooo ugly lol. repeating someone else comment there lol.But it is!!!!!!

  • Well guys this phone can be out any moment now or may have alredy released as you can see nokia europe reagonal site where coming soon has been removed from under this model which means nokia have started shpping this device so their is no shock if some seller is having this model

  • Damn, this fone is ugly!

  • @Noble Stead You said it yourself that N80 is not your cup of tea, which means that it depends on your needs and personal preferences. So I guess your post is pointless.

  • But why. Flip Phones there ugly. And annoying. as you can see not a fan. the w950 would be way better. or somthing along the line sof the n91 or n80 even though i dont like the n80 just not my cup of tea. why do people keep buying flips ahahahhahahaha. my personal rant over. im sure its good though under neith its ugly exterior.

  • good point Aberdeen But can you name one in Manila, can you name one Nokia importer you said which currently has N71 unit available? and would you like to provide me this information by giving me their phone number and email address so I could contact them myself? All Semicon branches don't have it either here in Manila nor does the other stores in Digital exchange in Glorietta (these are not Nokia stores). Even all the telcos in Computer World 4th floor SM Megamall don't have any shadow of the N71. Will you kindly provide me with the dealer you said in Baguio, the telephone number and email address? Because obviously, many fellow Filipinos are waiting for this phone, even the N80. I hope you can provide any concrete information to enlighten us.

  • why would you get a phone from nokia philippines dealer if you can get from dealers who import the phonedirectly.. like here in baguio

  • Strange. Here in Manila, Philippines, I called three major Nokia distributors namely, Nokia Festival Mall, Nokia Greenbelt and Nokia Glorietta. All of them said one thing, that N71 is NOT available nor out yet neither they have any idea when it will be released. Called up Nokia Careline at 8861234 and the csr said that N71 won't be expected to arrive even by the end of April. So much for "claims" that N71 is already avaliable in the Philippines. Now I do not know if that person claiming the device is available or will be released within the coming days is talking about the black market.

  • Guys! this fone was jast released in asia!!!!

  • Its avaialble there at selected nokia dealers.. here in Baguio it will come within 7 days

  • Hi! Mr.Aberdeen Klein, I read your post and you said N71 is already in the philippines.Can you tell me where in the philippines can I buy the nokia N71? Tnx

  • i luv this mobile, but why is its central buttons so small (enter/up/down/left/right) for?? i disliked it on the nokia n70, and i was hoping it would not appear again. its so hard to push the buttons!!!

  • Nice Flip.I really want to have one of it.Its just fashionable.

  • nokia 3250 made in china, 18,500 made in finland here is 20,000

  • I am talking about made in Finland and made in Germany Nokia 3250 units. Not made in China.

  • To Aberdeen Strange about variations in price, probably it will drop soon as soon as new phones will arrive

  • to STARGATER, helow nokia 3250 here in BAGUIO CITY is only 18,500 pesosz!!! though it's not made in finland it is made in china.... duh,

  • Hello? N3250 is Php25,000.00 in Nokia Stores in Makati, Robinson's Place and Festival Mall!

  • hey all..does ne body know wut is the function of the key above the camera on the outer cover?? thnx..

  • TO KAKA; N91= approximately PhP28,000 N80= approximately PhP31,000 N71= approximately Php22,000 3250= PhP 18,500

  • this phone holds a lot of memory and the camera also takes clear pictures.i recommend this phone to anyone who is looking for a good phone

  • ANNOUNCEment:: nokia N91, N80, N71 is now available!!! im from the philippines and its already here!!! visit this site and you will be amazed

  • I believe it can be better put this way: That each person has his own preference and desired specification. It's his own money that will be shelled out anyway. So either Nokia or SE, it will still respectfully depend on the choice of the enduser.

  • I'm not impressed by Nokia's designs since the last 2 years or so. I find Sony Ericsson better and switched after Nokia's 6100. I remember when the craze was on Nokia and a lot of people commented that after being a Nokia user they could simply not switch to anything else...Just give it time and you can!

  • I saw an information on vodafone.com that it will be available on 30/05/06, which I'm pretty sure it's true, but the N80 will be available this month - 28/04/06 is set for the reslese date

  • Perfectly,It's proper phone to use today.I think that the memory card should have a capacity more 128 mb.

  • thanks, for the website!!!!

  • I think it looks quite nice when open but ugly when closed over. Shame

  • it looks ok but I am so tired of phones changing so quickly that I cant keep up. The newer phones displayed on this site will prob only be in S.A 2007 if we lucky and by there lots more phones have arisen. What is better the N70 or N71.

  • To Aklein, this link is interesting:

  • this is a great fone,there are some bad aspects of it like the design and keypads but the functions are great!!! for those who dnt have much monney to keep changing their mobiles,this is a sure buy coz its gonna last long due to its features... i hope its durable though...

  • so ugly

  • i'm contemplating getting the nokia n71 but are there any other makes of mobile that compare equally to this phone being a flip phone???????????????????????????????

  • It is a great phone.It is a clamshell!That's cool.Da memory card is great!It'is 2GB.But 4 me Sony ericsson K800 is still the best.It's 3.2 MP.But this N71 still agreat N series.

  • Everyone seems to be slating this phone but its got agood features. 2MP camera, great video recording. Even the new to be released SE K800 doesnt record video as good as this or the n70 for that matter. The n70 is also aclamshell which is great fpr pretecting the screen and clamshells are the future of mobile phones without a doubt. Bluetooth version 1 or 2 makes no difference unless you intehnd to chat with 10 people in the same room at one usingbluetooth but if that situation were present wouldnt you just talk to them withyour mouth? Anyway im definatley getting this phone. The video recording is what ets this phone up for me. I absolutley loved the recording on the n70 and cant wait to get my hands on this. MP4 herei come

  • it is good but blue tooth should be given free and 512 mb memory card also

  • Mack i'm like you my dad is Bill gates, anybody want to by the newest an unreleased version of Windows (Vista) my dad gave it to me before it has been released to the main UK providers for testing. Yawn .. why talk rubbish you wouldnt be given a phone that hasn't even gone to any main stockists it would be worth over 100,000 pounds and you deffo would not be selling it for 500 on gsm arena!! wake up u time waster - Luko at mobile-review.com

  • mack i wish i was u. do u know anything about when the N91 is going to come out???

  • Mack, you are lucky man. :)

  • i have t admit at first i thought this would be my phone, but after i saw samsung z710 im in love with this one, it has better features than n71 and is way better looking

  • umm.....I LOVE N71 SO SO MUCHH!!! haha....at first...i was looking for N92...but...after that...i also don't know y...i love N71 more than N92...oh gosh...wat crap im talking bout...umm....i like N71..bcos of the keypad...design...the camera? haha...that all....

  • Anyone wants to buy my N71? my uncle work for Nokia as a designer for the N series and he gave me this N71 and N92, I'm using N92 at the moment. Any1 wants to buy my N71? $500 its only 1 week old

  • cemera flash no strong.if compere sony ericsson,the flash so solf.

  • well it is smaller than N90 which is a good start. and the design is more a less like standard clam shell phone in the market. this baby packs a lots of features which i think will be a better bargain compare to N80 or other Nseries. I will get my hands on 1 of this baby when release in the market, hehe. i do hope that the respone of N71 will be faster than N90...

  • phone of the year..hands down

  • These are the main differences: Larger display (36 x 50 mm) - N71 better for web browsing Higher resolution (352 x 416 pix) - 80 which leads to slower speed (compare N70 vs N90 3 Mpix camera (other features are the same as N71, including no optical zoom) - N80 Wi-Fi N80 (If you don't need this feature, than is a waist of money) UPnP - N80 (inetersting feature for controling your TV's, audio systems, only if you have the needed adaptors all over your home, which cost a fortune Audio adaptor for 3.5 mm audio jack - N71 Other than this, they are pretty much the same. And the 150 euros price tag, by the way. I've already chosen - the N71. I perefer clamshells over sliders, and it has everything i need (i don't need wi-fi or UPnP, which i will never use)

  • a bit on the bulky side buy hey! its nokia...

  • ok now i'm confused wich one is better the n71 or the n80 the n71 has larger display but the n80 is cutter but aso the n71 has another screeen 2*,so nothing is really hass the supirior hand on the other device maybe the n71 has a taller display size dont know about the width but the n80 has the 3 meapixel(not that i'll shooot models with it)so not a big diferrence really,but the V design of the n71 i think it's kind of class,some people say it's feminin but i dont think so..maybe the coulour of the n80 is kinda a new the black & the silver who i choosee am really in a mess so somebody help me plz i still have 2 sell my 6630 wich is bytheway a gr8 phone but,we are talking about the "n series" so who i chooose n71or n80 & if n80 the black one or the silver,plz give me convincing reasons cause in my country those phone worth a fortune...

  • I think this keyboard is going to be very good. I don't like the keyboards other phone's have nowadays since they are packed in so small space. This one seems to have space to press buttons even with bigger fingers. Also Nokia 7650 has very good keyboard.

  • I think the keyboard sucks

  • This phone is so grool....

  • It is best combination of Technology in Mobile Phone. It surely make boom in Mobile Phone World.

  • I can't wait to see it out.This very much the most beutiful ,elegant ,modern and cool cellphon ever.

  • i can

  • As amazing as the other sister phones in the N Series, I believe that this is by far the most impressive and i cant wait until its available in South Africa.

  • is ok - but i will pass on it for a better one

  • when giving out the effieciency and performance of the phone;do as wee place the price so every one could see it in a glance. I think this phone is cute.

  • is ugly your right k750 is nice but very limited to being a camera centric mobile this is a morecomplete smartphone.

  • ugliest phone ever

  • What are the prototypes like? whats the camera like, i take it it will not be as good as the finished phone?

  • good phone not as good as my se k750i

  • hey pls help me!! i saw n92,n91,n90,n80,n70 etc. in ebay.com. And they're actually selling it... but how come?? its not yet released in the market and they're selling it for only $250 which is really cheap!! are those sellers really selling n71? or they're just scammers? hey people out there pls tell me if those sellers are scammers.. they have 100% positive feedback. but i'm still in doubt about it.. help!!

  • N71 has new feature: It can play flash file and .wma music file. N71's display: 2.3 inches, 262,144 colors; 320x240 pixels. It has Navigator feature, you can use this feature like GPS.

  • I think this phone does have a lot of potential. This phone cannot be compared to the razr cause the razr simply sucks. Even it's newer version does not have what this phone has. You can say the phone is bulky, but this is just as big as the razr in width and height if not slimness. 2MP Camera, Good MP3 Functions / Radio (no rds? :(..) Everything that is enough for someone who knows their phones. Question: Does this phone comes with it's own data cable cords for the computer? What headsets does this phone come with? Thanks. I voted it for a 5 (Suppose to be 7) for Design, 10 for Feature, and another 10 for Performance. Would be better if Nokia somehow made the battery life longer.. Big screen = Good!

  • N71 is a very big phone to any users and its have no riging mode. I think N71 is bad Nokia phone.

  • hey i think it;s a very good phone it is nice and 123 1 means good 2 means very good 3 means perfect 123 123 123 123 123 123

  • Are you completely crazy yo??About the Motorola razr v3x,I have to say the following:1)It does'nt even have a radio!! 2)bluetooth is 1.2(older than SE W810),3)It has only 24 polyphonic channels!!,4)Camera is also worse than in SE W810,5)and finally,I have to add the unbeliveable:IT DOES'NT EVEN HAVE AN infrared port!! HA!HA!

  • Yes, but the v3x is not even a smartphone.

  • geez people the only phone you can compare it its the motorola razr v3x amd have less features... check it out yourself

  • 1)bluetooth is old(1.2),2)FM radio is without RDS,3)USB is pop-port(while in SE W810 it is v2.0),4)memory is only 10Mb,5)too heavy(139g),6)too fat(25,8mm),7)whithout autofocus(which can be found in w810),8)camera is 1600x1200pixels(while in w810 it is 1632x1224 and so better),9)whithout picture editor(which can be found in w810),10)symbian programs are too slow,11)battery has only 220 h standby time and just 4 h talktime(while in SE W810 is 350 h and 8 h),12)as i said,3g is not so important for the reasons i already mentioned

  • Its great to see how people vote these phones.. Hmm Sony Ericsson W810 has 8.4 in the features, this got only 7.8 and the w810 doesnt even have a 3g. This one got. Lot of laugh.. If the phone looks good, ok, lets give 10 point for features! this sucks.

  • it is really awesome mobiloe phone i like it it great

  • Not bad,however it's my second coice.I think SE W810i is much more better and much more beautyfull.3g is nothing for me,since it is only good for serfing in WAP(and so too expencive),as well as for videocalling(which is not good because it's not for free,and because it is not comfortable for everybody to be seen in phone,for examble when in bed whith pyjamas).N71 has nothing more to offer in comparison to SE W810 which i thing will be my next phone as soon as it comes on the market.

  • Great looking phone, full featured, bring it on Nokia!

  • Wonder why Nokia is trying clamshell..horrible!! Better stick to Candybar...

  • i like this phone but it is very expensive as well very big in use.

  • This is the clamshell brick! Too big for any use.

  • I like this phone.

  • Serhio-Roberto, and the rest of the guys, this is part of Nokia stratgey to have not had all the features in one single phone. This is a norm since few years back.

  • why don't they put for ringing also video? and why don't they put a 3 MP camera on this phone? and why the media player doesn't play more formats ov video? for example normal avi? we have memory to put them, no? on SD card!

  • it belongs to nokia xpress music ,so obviously its speaker must be very good i hope .n91 and 3250 also belongs to this group of dedicated music machines.

  • Truly a masterpiece flip till now from Nokia. Still it should have had got a twist design. Does anyone know about the sound quality of this phone? Also how does the new web page viewer work on this phone?

  • is the internal memory enough// ?? i mean like, it is only 10 mb ..

  • no N80 is Better just i prefer fliop over slider

  • it's not better than n80.

  • is this better than Nokia N80????

  • does anyone know how big this will be when open. because i'm not sure whether it is gonna be massive or tiny? Also does anyone know when its out in Uk.

  • I don't have this phone on my hands, but reading all the functions I think it will be mine as soon as it cames out on the italian mkt! I love nokia mobiles... Ely

  • best quality but the shape is too unnatural to me, It's a very smart one for it can use and insert many more programs as we like. but anyway, it should not be so high a price like that. As I love it so, will anyone contribute it to me. I am Cambodian, poor, but ........

  • Overall and excellent phone wif features most ppl would wanna have but where the phones's camera is placed dissapoints me as it will not have protection and it's lense will B covered with finger prints so Nokia shld mayb replace dis model in my opinion replace it by changing the location of the camera and the desingh of dis phone.In my opinion i find the exterior N90 looking nicer den the N71 adding the the cons the location of the internal camera isn't gd at all cos if u open and close the phone 2 hard the camera might go cocky.I gell that the internal camera is shld B placed at the btm of the display and not on top of it.

  • a reply for nick: you asked how long you have to wait for the N71 as you have ahd to wait for the A1010 for 6 months. here is a hint.... rather than get a hard on over a phone that you see on this site go into the REAL mobile market place and see what phone you can actually buy rather than spend pointless hours waiting for a phone you wont see for over a year. just think if you always look to the future you will miss things that are happening noe. i would have thought geeks like you would understand that!!

  • Finally a phone that has ALL the specifications I want! Megapixel camera, speakerphone, clamshell design, smartphone for my address book, dual displays (some of the new clamshell phones don't have a front display, why on earth not??). One review I read said it didn't have speakerphone - if this is true I will be SO disappointed! All other reviews have said it DOES have speakerphone. Provided it has speakerphone, this is will definitely be my new phone when it becomes available in Australia!!

  • This phone is awesome, It's about time Nokia uis reaching out to there customers..Good Job on the N71.......keep it going!.the only thing I see that maybe a problem is the camera is not well protected, I hear alot of talk here for Motorola V3...or Motorolla V551....both of those phones are garbage and drop carriers consistently...here with rogers.. They Motorola menus are shit and very slow. They battery life on Motorolas is a Joke compared to nokia.......Motorolla drain the battery quickly...........Stop being ignorant. Accept the change, this phone rocks, and looks very,very cool.

  • this phone looks like a better option, from it competition, it price looks quite less than motorola V3x plus it have radio and its a smartphone

  • n71...it's charming looks made me fell in love with it instantly.Really interesting design. (note: I never fall in love with poor features) Hmm...little bit worried 'bout the lack of stereo speakers. Still,hope that the first review will be availlable ASAP.

  • Beautifull and ellegant...great features...and I really want to buy a phone with a big display. But how long shall we wait for n71? I've waited for Motorola a1010 for more than six months, and now I'am tired of waiting. Hope it will not be the same with Nokia's n71?

  • The N-Series is geared for multimedia users while the E-Series is geared towards business users. That's as far as i know.

  • Hey wuts the difference between the N series and the E series? can any1 tell me? plz? ^^

  • I think it looks pretty cool.

  • I think it's quite big too...but that doesn't change the fact that this is agreat phone, with even better features. Go Nokia!

  • I'm so fcking tired of people saying bad, ugly phone and so on.. At least you could explain your opion. First of all, I don't think it's big at all. Compared to V3X, Z540, Z800 its actually shorter and only a bit thicker. And thickness doesn't make phone look big, does it? No. And OMG it weights 139g! V3X is 125g and Z800 128g. Difference is few grams only, that is so damm ridicilous. Damm kids..

  • so sad.. so bad...ugly clamshell mode, big and heavy. nokia...u r getting down.,.

  • cool

  • Trendy looking!! With a mp3 player, a better camera, more space! Nokia is going up!

  • I think this is the greatest mobile phone ever made. It's the BEST. I'll have it! :)

  • its not as huge as N90...but its still HUGE!

  • this is the most ugly phone i had ever seen.

  • I think this is the first nokia phone w all functions together ,,i mean : symbian,FM,BT,Flash,NICE CAMERA,Mp3 ,,,,this is a great nokia and mybe i should say a miracle,...!

  • this is a great phone having all feuture what a phone should have .i like it

  • What I'd give for a thin clam Nokia (like the v3)! Forget the camera, put in the connectivity and great calling features! This multimedia BS is driving me crazy! Carrying these bricks around is so inconvenient! Bring back the 8110 or whatever it was (the silver one)! I admit the 8800 is great but the price is out of my league. Maybe a cheaper version of the 8800?? NOKIA PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR DEVOTED CUSTOMERS!

  • If this was like the N70 form, candybar i would more that likely buy it :(

  • this is the ugliest phone ive seen this year..

  • I wonder why Nokia is venturing in flip phones with such bulky designs.Flip phones are usually bought by people who love to flaunt or want to save space in their pocket.N90 is feature rich like the other N series, but it's like carrying a heavy brick for which I don't have a pocket of that size.Same is true for N71.They have also not included Vibratory mode in N90,this may be because no one will carry such big phones in their pocket.More phones like N70 should be introduced so that they fit in our pocket.Space,space,space......

  • nokia is getting more and more ugly and more and more bigger...!!

  • where can i find out a good review for this phone? seams to be ideal for me :)

  • Everytime i look it, it looks better and better. :) Gosh, how can you say its ugly

  • Why all the flip phones from Nokia are so ugly, the only good one is N90 but it's like a brick.

  • wow! that's a very nice phone with very good feautures! gratulations nokia ;) but the only bad thing is, that the camera is not protected......

  • A very clumpsy phone...looks dated, very unexciting just like a toyota. definitely lacks the x factor look..sorry nokia. good point is that it is less clumpsy looking than the N90.. but still no kick.

  • hi all, anyone know whether this cover on the camera like N70 or 6680. or it's exposed ?

  • Reborn of Nokia :)

  • i love this phone cause it has everything to my lonely life

  • I really like its features but sad to note... Nokia can't have my money to buy this phone because I don't like its design..... poor Nokia... why? why? why?

  • I love this phone. It has all the features that I need: huge high-quality display, 2 Mpix camera, flash, 3G, S60, jack for standard headphones and so much more. Can't wait till it hits the stores

  • this is nokia typical great features but ugly just look at it closed, look at the keypad after opened i wish they would have put this features in the 6170 model this is so nokia, there has to be something lacking the best flip phone they made lacked in features(6170) and here great features but just look at the phone(n71),the colour that steelonce again they should have put this features in 6170 anybody with me?

  • It has all the right features. But as usual Nokia brings a huge phone, it should compete with the other makers in terms of size, not only features.

  • At the moment, does anyone know if we can take pictures with the phone closed like N90?Or we have to open the clamshell to take a pic?

  • Hello Guys when will it available in store? Do you have any information about it?

  • its awesome, but i suppose it should be more enhanced version of n90 rather than something with similar features. i would prefer n90 for tht matter.

  • it has awsome screan but keypad should be littile more exciting

  • its is wonderful mobile phone it has amazing features

  • Hi.This mobile is awesome.But the secondary camera should be 1MP or 2MP. Thanks.

  • the keypad looks real ugly.. i dun think that this is the best clamshell by nokia.. too ugly. too bad. N90 is still better somehow.

  • it may not be as nice looking as n80 but n71 will definitely be much affordable cuz this one will cost around $480 vs $600 for n80. Well if 2mpx is ok for u, go for this n series, it's the cheapest amongst them! OMG i'm confused whether to get dis model or 3250, cuz n71 has far superior video recording, CIF vs QCIF of 3250, but 3250 will cost around $400 only! Only thing stopping me from choosing this n71 is its size specially the thickness almost 26mm kinda THICK and its design! Nonetheless it's great!

  • It's not ugly, it's just unusual and that makes it different from all other calmshells. Great features and nice price too.

  • its good..................................... i love the design and the features

  • What makes you think that its ugly? In my opion, its probably Nokia's best clamshell so far by design and features. Also, over 1,3cm shorter than N90.

  • the silver colour N71 very nice...

  • is it a 3G phone?

  • n80 Does can play videos, i don't know from where are you getting your info but s60 have realplayer that support a couple of video formats, and if it doesnt, you can install a video player of your tastes that its

  • nothing special from this phone , the worst in Nseries , with the V3x, motorola can beat it easily

  • n92 and n80 have no mpeg4 player and do not play vidoes........n71 does!! n71 has an ugly design though compared to n92 and n80...n80 is by far the best of all 3 except for the fact it cant play videos which is pretty sad because this was supposed to be the best

  • This phone has THE WORST DESIGN from the whole Nseries.

  • Clamshells are not Nokia's strongest design point but N71 appears better than most. Awesome features and competitive price make it a great attraction but it is doubtful if this is enough to lure current N70 owners.

  • hey uy ppl if u r jealous... not so poor design as u r saying very better than n90,n91,n92 and has good and fine display. lovly features and sexy OS and this phone should be rated 8.5 out of ten personally i like this phone but its heavy and not so stylish the man said rite moto has cool clamshell phone bbye hader this phone rocks but sony is still better.. and nokia is also................................ cannot compare

  • Nokia should learn from Motorola how to make clamshells. Not the best Nokia's phone (by desigh).

  • like N71 ders prototype pics out on the web not the Best Nseries worst one really I LOVE NOKIA AMAZING....... 3 mega pix out now

  • design really really sucked...and have no new exciting features!! dissapointed on this one...

  • great phone, high data speed too... but y cant nokia put together in one phone all their hich tech features??? id rather appreciate it... im waiting for what SE can answer wahahaha...

  • cool, but i think i'll pass it and go for n80

  • Becareful on this phone is its a N70 but lil diffrent

  • This phone gives me the worse impression out of the 3 N-Series. Due to it's design which i do not like personally... But if i had the money, i'd rather invest it in the N80.

  • this is a n70 clamshell with better resolution!!! = perfect!!

  • Dude what a cool phone. Thank u nokia for making a great clamshell phone. Its not that expensive either. Oh boy..i am so getting it. Just release it quickly in US

  • This on the other side is allmost great,close but no cigar.

  • Fabulous phone, nice features and a decent design :)

  • Hmmm it doesn't look great.

  • why it has to be so fat and large? nokia shoud make a smartphone with thickness 20mm and large up to 45mm.

  • very cool

  • Yeah... the godfather of the N series is N92!!!

  • It looks to be a gem of a mobile WOW this is great already N series looked so cool now this N71 WOW waiting for it to be launched in INDIA

  • Looks nice n decent n its suppose to be smartphone wat else can I say ? shud be affordable too
