Nokia E62 Cell Phone
The Nokia E62 is an amazing PDA phone and is targeted for business professionals. With all the new Smartphones being released by HTC, Motorola and Samsung, Nokia had to jump on the bandwagon too. The E62 is one of the latest successors of the Nokia E-series. The E62 runs the Symbian OS 9.1 which has many great features. The E62 is almost the same as the E61 but does not offer features like Wifi. Overall which is better Windows or Symbian OS? Is the E62 a good competitor with the Moto Q, Cingular Blackjack or T-Mobile Dash? READ ON TO FIND OUT!!
The E62 looks like a blackberry device but at the same time looks very unique. The E62 has a full QWERTY keyboard along with a 5-way joystick. Overall the keyboard is excellent because the keys are spaced out so you can easily type. Compared to the Dash/S620 the keyboard is much roomier but overall the device itself is bigger too. The 5-way directional joystick is great. You can easily maneuver from menu to menu but at times you accidentally push in the joystick and select the wrong option.
The side volume keys are fine but the voice record button is directly under them. Many times you start recording a conversation accidentally when on a call. In my opinion the record button should have been a nice distance from the volume buttons.
The back of the phone is a bit awkward because it gets thicker from the top. If the phone’s width was consistent throughout the phone I think it would have looked much better.
The numeric keypad is directly in the middle of the QWERTY keyboard. The * # and 0 keys are not at the bottom of the keypad but on the right side. This I found a bit weird at first but you do get used to it.
The speaker on the E62 is fine but the way it’s placed is uncomfortable. At times when you’re on the phone you cannot hear properly because the speaker is not aligned with your ear. Compared to other phones (especially Nokia) this has never been an issue.
Overall the E62 looks great but is a lot bigger than other devices in its class ie. Blackjack and T-Mobile Dash.

Overall I found that the E62 is way too slow for me. When you press a button the delay is at least 1-2 seconds which I found quite annoying. Overall the OS has a very slow response time and especially when there are applications running in the background it gets extra slow. Compared to Windows Mobile... ATLANTA, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Cingular Wireless today became the first wireless carrier in the U.S. to introduce a wireless navigation system with 3D maps and "fuzzy search" when it launched an enhanced version of TeleNav GPS Navigator™ on the Nokia E62 device.
Using TeleNav GPS Navigator on the Nokia E62 device, customers will receive turn-by-turn directions while driving and view colorful 3D moving maps on the device's large,... Pros: none really Cons: Slow interface, staticy blue tooth reception, it's a brick, no WiFi, slow to turn on, soft keys hard to push, easy to accidentally hit the voice key, hard to use text keys with a case on. Summary: I am so puzzled by all the positive reviews on this phone that I found on different sites. All I can imagine is that the people writing these have never used any other "smart phones" or pda's. This thing is painfully slow. Push the send button that brings up the log of dialed calls and you're gonna wait 3 seconds while it is "accessing data". Going between menus is equally slow. Most of the time I couldn't decide if I had hit the button hard enough because it was doing anything, but usually I would realize that i had hit it hard enough, but it was just dragging. The blue tooth connection is the worst. Most phones I have used will allow you to walk 20 or 30 feet away while talking on blue tooth device. Not this phone. You won't be able to go more than about 5 or 6 feet before static kicks in. Even if I had the phone strapped onto my left and the plantronics headset on my right ear, that was enough to make static. Same headset on my new phone, motorola v365, I can go 30 feet and it's clear as if I were holding the phone. The combination of the "select" key or "soft" key being hard to press and the slow reaction from the phone drove me nuts. Was the phone just sitting there doing nothing because I didn't use 40 footpounds of pressure on it or is it just the ridiculously slow processor sitting there thinking? I thought I would like the qwerty keyboard. I don't. I have fat fingers. Give me a regular keypad with iTap any day and I'll race you. If you're not using some form of predictive text.. try it out. Once you get used to it you will like it. The holes for the ear speakers are finicky. There is a sweet spot where your ear must precisely be or it's hard to hear. Hit that sweet spot and you're golden.. but if not.. good luck hearing. I love gadgets. So for me to turn this phone back in and get a regular flip phone says alot. I wouldn't choose it if it were free. It just needs to be faster and smaller. I'm not ready to pay $40 per month to use internet on my phone, so I guess I didn't really try out half of the options on it. 42 out of 89 people found this review helpful Pros: This phone has absolutely the BEST reception of any PDA phone I've used (including Blackberry 8700c). EXCELLENT voice quality, able to cut-n-paste messages (unlike Blackberry), battery life is almost twice the life of the Blackberry 8700c. Cons: None ... Summary: I've had the Blackberry 8700c for a year and other Blackberry phones before that. This Nokia E62 is way much more advance. The phones microphone has the best clarity of any phone I've tried to date. This phone is also about half the price in the cellular stores compared to the Blackberry 8700c. Just a remarkable phone. 61 out of 99 people found this review helpful Pros: The first plus was the screen. It is big and clear as can be! The E62 is easy to operate with one hand mainly because of the key pad layout. The battery life has been amazing considering all of the playing I have been doing. The sound quality is impressive even on the speakerphone. Cons: Took a while to learn what all the device can do and how to do it. Summary: Nokia has really hit a homerun with this one and I believe it is a must buy. The E62 is really a smart smartphone and has meet all of my expectations! 57 out of 101 people found this review helpful All Nokia E62 user reviewsBuying choicesWith new service  This item is not being sold with a service plan by any online merchant.
