Nokia E66

Nokia introduces the Nokia E66 the latest email-optimized device from the Nokia Eseries product range. The stylish slide-to-open Nokia E66 easily mobilizes a broad range of personal or professional messaging needs including Microsoft Exchange the worlds most widely adopted corporate email solution.

The Nokia E66 comes fully equipped for easy-to-install and easy-to-use professional and personal email. People who use Microsoft Exchange at work can access their email using the Mail for Exchange mobile email client which comes pre-loaded with the Nokia E66.

With its sleek slider design, the E66 is the business phone to appeal to people who want the flexibility of a smartphone without necessarily having a serious business intention, or who hate the larger form factors of most business phones. As such, the E66 features a 2.5mm headphone port and a microSD card slot for expanding the phone’s memory and filling it up with music and videos. The E66 isn’t a media phone, strictly speaking, but it is more than capable of busting out some tunes on public transport.

Different to Nokia’s E-Series releases of last year, the distance in regards to specs between this year’s models, the E71 and the E66, is much closer. Sifting through the menus of the E66 is an identical experience to doing the same with the E71, they share matching connectivity options in 3.5G network speeds, Wi-Fi and A-GPS receivers, and the same 3.2-megapixel camera.

In fact, one of the few differences between these phones is that the E66 features an orientation sensor, meaning the display changes from portrait to landscape depending on how you are holding the phone. This isn’t a new feature in phones, but while most phones only rotate the display in certain apps, like the Web browser or photo gallery, Nokia takes the idea a step further allowing you to adjust the orientation regardless of which application is running. This sensor also silences the ringtone on incoming calls when the phone is turned over, without cancelling the call.

The “E” in E-Series stands for Enterprise and like its business focused brethren, the E66 makes a very handy business sidekick with excellent email options, access to Microsoft Exchange servers for syncing mail, contacts and calendars with MS Outlook, a VPN client for accessing your company’s intranet, as well as the ability to view MS Office documents (Word, Excel and PowerPoint) with the option to upgrade and be able to edit these documents from your handset. We’ve been able to install the necessary certificates and easily gain access to our office Exchange mail server and have new messages pushed to the phone.
