The Nokia E63 model is one of the most commonly used smart phone available in the market. It's features are very handy and simplistic layout of the phone makes it handy and well usable.

It is also available in Ruby Red and Navy blue.

Main disadvantages:

  • Poor camera performance
  • Video recording maxes out at QVGA@15fps
  • No GPS
  • No RDS in the FM radio
  • 3.5mm jack protective bud is not attached to the body
  • No USB cable in the retail package
  • No preinstalled games at all.
