Set to be the next member of the E-Series business handsets family, the Nokia E72 will probably be launched late August or sometime before the second week of September. With the E71 still being the center of attention for all QWERTY lovers around the world, much anticipation rocked the E-Series-o-holics when the E72 was first talked about being developed by the world’s number one phone manufacturer Nokia.

Everyone loved the solid built Nokia E71 all over and all admired how nicely its QWERTY keypad was positioned when typing with that PDA smartphone for the first time. In fact it is listed as the best in its class by Wired Magazine and it is priced at around. Nokia E71 is one of the most successful PDA type phone that Nokia ever produced and we all wanted to see an “upgrade” to that! The Nokia E72 is just that if not more, it is an an E71 which – wisely upgraded!

Nokia E72 Features :

The beautifully shaped Nokia E72 is the perfect smartphone or PDA for any business individual on the go. Only 128 grams in size and with a form thickness of 10mm, the Nokia E72 is built to last years. The four corners are rounded quite a bit and the keys are positioned a bit higher than its predecessor Nokia E71.

Don’t be fooled by its E-Series tag though as this phone is much personal user friendly as much as it is business oriented in nature. It comes with an one touch auto focus compatible 5 MP (5 mega pixels or 2592 pixels by 1944 pixels) camera with a Flash which makes it the perfect smart phone or PDA for any kind of multimedia photography. It can adjust and tweak itself when you are snapping moving objects, thus, eliminating blurred images altogether.

The VGA recording quality of the Nokia E72 camera is similar to that of N97 and allows you to record moving objects at a rate of 15 frames/sec with a max dimension of 640×480 pixels. It can auto adjust the video settings for maximum quality output.

E72 is compatible with Microsoft Exchange E-Mail systems and the Lotus Notes Traveler which makes it a powerful device to manage all your e-mail accounts and their respective attachments centrally from your E72 PDA device. In general all POP3 and IMAP based e-mail networks should work with E72’s email client. It also supports HTML mail, multiple E-mail accounts integration, forwards, etc.

Massive power savings are ensured when you are using this E-Series business device, the E72. It can easily last over 6 and a half hours with constant GPS navigation turned on and it can last over 5 hours if you surfing the web constantly using the E72. It can also serve you with nearly 8 hours of video playback, well over 12 hours of talktime and over 32 hours of music playback when listened through its accessory headphone.
