Nokia E51 - Slim Wifi Phone

The phone is quite tall at 114.8mm, though is very thin at 12mm. It is 46mm wide and weighs the magic 100g. It feels really comfortable to hold, and slips into pretty much any pocket without causing trouble. The perhaps excessive height is welcome because it allows for a superb screen, good number pad and large bank of additional buttons. Let's look at those features in turn.

The screen measures two inches corner-to-corner and delivers 320 x 240 pixels. It can display 16 million colours. It isn't huge but it is superbly sharp and clear, and utilises the confined space well. To make even more use of the display area, Nokia's Web browser can be twisted into wide format and there is a text zooming mode which helps you see as much as possible of a page at once. However, it is the camera that lets this phone down. Its base specification of 2.0-megapixels doesn't inspire confidence at the outset, and in use it was average.
