Video: White Nokia E71 Hands On By GearLog

One of the concerns I have with the Nokia E71 is which color to get. The press release photos looks marvelous, while photos I’ve seen make the white keyboard contrasting from the rest of the body make it ugly in my eyes. Thanks to a Nokia E71 video hands-on review by Sascha Segan from Gearlog, I can see up close how the white Nokia E71 looks like around different reflections.

Let’s take a look at a press photo:

Let’s now take a look at an actual photo that’s been passed around online. Something looks off doesn’t it?

I’m still liking the white version of the Nokia E71 after watching the video by Sascha. The white keyboard does not look right with certain reflections, but it looks really attractive through other reflections. I’m currently using the black beauty Nokia N95 8GB, so maybe my eyes are liking the white version of the Nokia E71 because I want something different.

I’m not sure which color of the Nokia E71 I am receiving this week to review, so watch out for an unboxing. We can share the surprise.

  • The surrounds on the front are mirrors - so it all depends on what they're reflecting 8-)

  • Nice! I'm really digging the white version as well. It's weird cuz I'm usually a fan of black phones but this isn't the case.
