Reviewed by Mark Shaw on 02/07/2008 The e65 hides a lot of features and great usability in a somewhat boring, business-like shell. But don't let that put you off - it's a great phone. www.nokia-nseries.co.uk Rating:    
Reviewed by Colin on 16/06/2008 Hate this phone.. I must have gotten one of the "reconditioned" phones from Three Ireland. There are so many things about this phone that annoy me.. From day of purchase, the back light on the key pad has been not worked. I have contacted Three about this twice and they are ignoring the problem. So basically, I cannot text in the dark. There is no FM radio.. There were no headphones supplied with the phone. The slider function is horrible, there is no ridge to grip when sliding the phone open. The phone feels awkward and the metal on the key pad is nasty.. This is the LAST Nokia phone I will be buying for the foreseeable future. Since I moved to the the Three network, I have purchased Nokia. All of there were Symbian "smart" phones. This OS is absolute trash.. It's far too slow. The phone doesn't know wheter it's coming or going half time time. I like a phone to respond immediately when I press a button, not a few seconds later. I will probably end up throwing this phone against the wall. Rating:

Reviewed by Alan Heath on 07/06/2008 I've had this phone now for twelve months , too be honest i'm totally happy with it, it's got loads of features and an abundance of connectivity options, and it'll even do sat nav what more could you ask for. menu's are a little slow but it's been very reliable Rating:

Reviewed by Ryder on 26/05/2008 Perhaps you should write down the things you want from a phone before purchasing this model. It is not a digital camera. It is not a video phone. These things are quite clear in the specifications listed by nokia. I have had no problems with my phone after many months of use, no lockups and fully functionality. Only activate bluetooth and WIFI when you need it, Check your task manager (press and hold the menu button in standby) to ensure all apps you are finished with have closed, and make sure you treat your battery properly and this phone will last four days with reasonable useage. Functions are great, text/mail/voip/quick internet searches (again, this is not a laptop!!!) and the user interface has been smooth and intuitive. I have owned 9 different nokias prior to this one and to be honest this is better than a few of them and on par with the rest, N73 included! Make sure it is what you want and then buy it :) Rating:

Reviewed by sammy from australia on 10/05/2008 i've had the E65 for a few months now about its really cute i love the looks the size, the colour, its really flashy when u push it up, its beautiful remind me of myself, other than that the phone takes a while to send another message when texing that pisses me off first of all i still loves it very much cuz it fell a few time and havent even gotten a scratch on it my phone is sill in good shape and looks brand new, even my friends love it a lot, plus i've got offers to buy it, my biggest problem with the phone is the f.m radio that it dosent have i'm really mad about that honestly the camera is not bad in the day but at night its a waste of time trying to use the camera it wont work all u see is blackness, so the worst thing bout the phone is the camera at night and the fm radio is dosent have, but its flashy to walk around with.

Reviewed by Tim on 04/05/2008 I've had my E65 for 15 months now, and all in all I think it's a very good phone. The user interface is straighforward and very intuitive, it's easy to customise the set-up to suit your own preferences, and I've found the battery life pretty good given the technology it's carying. My only gripe is that I think the volume when transmitting via bluetooth to a headset or in-car unit isn't strong enough. Rating:    
Reviewed by Jess on 27/04/2008 i have had this phone since September 2007, at first i as very impressed, my boyfriend has the n95 and even he was jealous but then i discovered that there is no real snooze function on the alarm. it offers a snooze option but you only get 5 minutes and this cannot be altered. the alarm also has to be set everyday. the small fonts were a problem and the fact that the wall paper is not full screen. other than this there were no other problems. then recently it has begun to throw a wobbler and switch itself off, it decides not to let me make calls and tells there is a connection error and randomly will not let me open text messages saying that there is not enough memory and i need to close all other applications even though there is no other application open.... i find the contacts search really annoyin, i think it is soomething to do with surnames and first names, when i search for my brothers number typing in Lew it provides about ten other names before my brothers and it is effort to have to scroll down to the correct name even though it is the most relevant to hte search. i have enjoyed havin this fone but come july when i am eligible for an upgrade i will not be sad to say goodbye Rating:    
Reviewed by Nick on 27/04/2008 Terrible phone - put it in your pocket & it will phone people by itself as the slider moves while you are walking along! Rating:    
Reviewed by Robert Walls on 26/04/2008 The worst phone I've ever had the misfortunte to own. Purchased online through the 3 store about a year ago. It has been returned and replaced 7 times so far. Crashing software, phone powering down by itself, speaker giving up... AVOID! Rating:    
Reviewed by Kim on 23/04/2008 Good phone. Looks great and operates great Rating:    
Reviewed by Simon on 23/04/2008 Although it is loaded with features, it doesn't perform reliably. You are probobly OK if you buy in UK but in France customer service does not exist even though bought from SFR (Vodaphone). I have owned it for over a month but it has already been sent away for repair three times, so have only used it for about 5 days! Coudn't recommend it. From an engieering point of view, the production team have done a good job but the software guys need shooting. How is it that we now accept such poor reliability in phones and computers? Rating:    
Reviewed by ben on 18/04/2008 excellent fone i love it it's the best phone i have ever had ! Rating:    
Reviewed by Jasmin on 17/04/2008 I absolutely HATE this phone. The memory is too large for a mobile phone. You cannot apparently 'Delete ALL' messages, but have to do it one by one. So please tell me how you are meant to do that with a thousand or so messages. and as a result of loads of messages, it takes so long to go through the menu (using the memory). it turns off so many times, when i flick it shut, and basically, is the WORST phone i have ever had.

Reviewed by Rivona on 14/04/2008 I have the Nokia E65. I do believe that it is a waste of time. It doesnt have many features. Its advertised as a really good phone, but not really. If I could get a refund on the phone, I would so do that. It doesnt even have games. Its not even user friendly. Rating:

Reviewed by Fanie Engelbrecht on 11/04/2008 On 20 July 07 I renew my contract with a Nokia E65 Cell C Cellphone. Guaranteed for 2 years. I experienced the following problems with the phone : Busy talking - Makes a noise and people on the other side cant here me clearly. All of a sudden my phone would just cut out and reboot for no reason. I went back to Solly's where I renewed my contract in the beginning of March and they send the phone in for repairs. Received the phone back... The problem is not fixed. I realy want you to assist me in this matter as I am very unhappy about the service this phone has given me since the first day..I'm in the police which you know is a very responsible work and to be out in a crisis sitting with these problems is furstrating and not save when you have to help people, report crimes and it is your only communication. Please can you contact me on : 084 711 1147 or e-mail me on : belindajehle@ananzi.co.za The serial number on my Invoice for the phone is : 353261017584377 I trust that you will find this in order and would like from you a.s.a.p Thanks F.A.

Reviewed by luke andi hutchinson on 01/04/2008 i have a nokia E65 previously on a contract but now on pay as you go. i have to agree with the phone being more of a business phone than a entertainment phone or photography phone. but it does what you need it to do. you can access messenger anywhere, browse the internet (provided enough credit) and is lightweight and slim. after 2 years of use it has only recently started to show the signs of use so it is pretty hardwearing. i myself get bored of mobiles so am in the market for a new phone. but if you do not get bored of mobiles easy, then i would recommend this phone for businesses and/or regular use. it feels good and is easy to use.

Reviewed by Guitta Lebanon on 27/03/2008 the phone is very good and stylish but the battery is awful I have to recharge it on a daily basis. Rating:    
Reviewed by Clarice on 27/03/2008 I had this phone as an ugrade from my samsung d600 last june, and I am now counting down the days to my next upgrade. I will list down teh main problems I have with this phone. It has everything you need (if it's not built-in, its still very easy to find applications on the internet) but battery life is very appalling!! I'd be lucky if it lasts a day and a half. On average, it crashes at least once a week when youre trying to access the main menu from standby (even though only one other application is running in teh background). The paint on the housing comes off easily from day to day constant rubbing with other things in the bag. But at the end of the day, I cant really complain as it's a good business phone and I can see my daily calendar entries and helps me keep track of my to do lists. Probably if I buy a new battery off ebay I wont be moaning as much.. Rating:    
Reviewed by Ed from Worcester on 23/03/2008 I love this phone and it's got wi-fi wich is good. Bit slow at times, font could be better, battery not too bad, still a good phone not the best fone in the world!!!! Rating:

Reviewed by Joshua on 18/03/2008 I think this is a very good phone for business users but i am not 18 yet and i still find it great. Rating:    
Reviewed by James on 08/03/2008 I upgraded from my N70 to the E65 even though I was hesitant on a slider phone from nokia as 6620 was so loose and chattery. Suprisingly it had a solid feel, quite a few fucntions and reliable without being slow to access features. It is a business mobile but I also take snaps and listen to mp3s with 2 gig expansion. It does everything you want but its also reliable and small. The only downside I can point out is the talk time and standby-I've had to charge it every 1-2 days maybe I am asking too much? left alone and its on standby for nearly a week. I find the wifi, bluetooth pretty reliable too-I've never had a fault with it. Tempted to keep it another year as the other mobiles on three upgrade are not exactly great. Get it in black or red.

Reviewed by matt on 07/03/2008 DONT GET THIS PHONE !!!! Im now on my 4th e65. orange keep replacing it but they always develop the same faults, ie, switching itself off and then back on and ringtones /wallpaper is restet to defaults when this happens. Also locks up etc. phonebook button seems to work when it feels like it and bluetooth connection is poor.Also often the microphone or earpiece doesnt work when trying to make calls, the only way to sort out any of these faults is to switch it off and back on or to remove battery. Every fault i have mentioned has occured on every hand set iv had. I dont think this can be coincidence. In short this phone is a pile of junk. Rating:    
Reviewed by Jaezebel on 06/03/2008 I bought my E65 almost a year ago and I love it. For Benson from Australia; I have 6 recurring alarms every day, I set them on the calendar and then they automatically go off every day, no need to reset. I only use the alarm function for random, one off alarms. The battery isn't the longest lasting, but it is running a lot of applications. I like having Wi-Fi, bluetooth, WLAN and it's worth the slightly shorter battery life to have these functions. I really love the ability to multi-task. I use it all the time. I think the group contact in Team Suites is great. In fact the only thing I think they could have improved on is the camera. I would have liked it placed better for video calls. I don't like the delay when taking a photo. But all in all, a great phone. I am very pleased with it & would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a phone with these functions. I would give it 4.75 stars. Rating:

Reviewed by Matt on 24/02/2008 This is the worst phone I have ever owned.
