    @Réhan Refai: @Mr. Black @ Sanctuary93.com: Yes, it does have GPS: [www.nokiausa.com]
    Before randomly speculating, you might try looking up the specs.

    @ZLevee: Yeah, you might want to check that again. The E71 has A-GPS. The E63, not so much..

    @Jrsy Devil's Advocate: It says A-GPS. But other than that, Mr. Black @ Sanctuary93.com appear to be right that you need a bluetooth adapter. Oh well.

    @ZLevee: Nokia's site does indeed say GPS and I don't understand why that is since every other source I've read including the one below says the E63 does not have GPS.

    I have an E62, 2 years old and beat to hell... and I love this thing. It's tough, the battery life is still beastly, and other than a bit of processing slowdown it hasn't given me any trouble. Symbian really isn't the best... but I'll put up with it for the many benefits.


    If the E63 is basically just an update but the same strengths, I'm in.

    I actually like the look of the phone, and appreciate the fact that Nokia seems to be leading the charge when it comes to breaking up the oligarchical system of cell phone makers and carriers in the US. It's funny to see Nokia, which has some ridiculously large share of the worldwide cellphone market (75% or something) acting like an outsider.


    Go Nokia!

    @bobojuice: It has 3G... although not mentioned in the article explicitly, the HSDPA part is what people refer to as 3.5G.. furthermore, if you know the WCDMA frequency in US it is 850/1900MHz.

    Or probably I'm mistaken something here? like T-Mobile 3G wont work on this phone?

    Is there really a GPS in E63? in my country, the E63 doesn't have GPS.. but the big brother (E71) does have it. And iirc it does have 3G, but not HSDPA.

    @Rurouni:

    The E71 is HSDPA(3.5G) 850/1900MHz.

    The E63 is UMTS(3G) 850/1900MHz.


    @bobojuice:

    Sorry, no TMO 3G with this one.

    @Segador: It is a GSM/WCDMA phone, it will work on any US GSM network. If there are only 2 GSM networks in the US then yes, it will only work with 2 carriers.

    "The E63, based on the E71, already dropped in Europe"

    which one is "dropped". and what is "dropped"?

    I checked out the E71 and found the keys just a bit too small for my ham hands and sausage fingers. This phone will be great for all you tiny-handed folk..
