hahaha..

You want meh? E6 no gorilla glass, no amoled, no 4" screen, no loud loud speaker, not many apps/games due to weird res.

We only got Joikuspot PREMIUM, hehehe
*
got brightest screen(referring to gsmarena review,brightest among all phones),highest pixel density,QWERTY form factor.
btw,the x7 speaker is disappointing.

X7 screen also not bad. Big and vivid. I would have chosen it if only it has better keyboard. I turned off the prediction for E6 cos really annoying. There is one good thing about not having accelerometer is when you lie on the bed and the screen rotate.

This E6 really wanna make me throw away the HTC but so disappointed with the problem for Whatsapp and Social feels so slow n hard to use.

If you want to buy keypad/board phone, buy Symbian. Although I dont know how good is BB, but this time, E6 definitely get my thumbs up for readability. Now feel so lazy to open my iPad2 on my bed.

BB still is the best for the following :
1) social networking - Facebook, twitter
2) instant messaging
3) email - but this is subjective. My company email is instant on Nokia E6 but for BB, i have to wait max 15 mins because it doesn't support Mail For Exchange. However, Gmail is other way round where BB is instant and Nokia is max 5 mins (which is still not bad).

Other thing is the notification part where Nokia E6 only have light notification for sms and missed call. Nokia should have added email and chat etc as well.

Overall Nokia E6 is a good phone. No regrets for sure. Happy that i have chosen this over Nokia X7.

Noooooo.....haha tongue.gif

by the way, my E6 battery took 8 hours to get from full bar to 1 bar. Tried twice and it is the same.

That is driving me crazy. Even my old Nokia E71 can last for nearly 1 day with similar usage pattern.

I suspect FSecure is the culprit. Turning it off now and monitoring the phone again. Haiz.

The main reason I'm choosing this over X7? The godly QWERTY keyboard, the hi res screen and the fact that apart from the screen and the speaker, X7 brings nothing new to the table. Its like an enlarged C7 IMHO laugh.gif

I think this time, I made the right call

Yeah, stop using data and use wifi lor.
Yes, whether or not whatsapp is running or not, there seem to be a background service that will keep activating data connection. When I was posting earlier, it keep running. But now check again, it activate data connection, run for a few seconds then stop liao. But it did not kill the data connection. I wonder if inactive is same as having it turned off. Gonna ask Nokia later.
Not sure what you wanna show there. Try activate whatsapp and see if the data comes on automatically or not lor. I killed whatsapp also it still connect. You can goto Connection Manager to see which app activate the data what. Try switch if off by long press the RED disconnect key and see if it on data again (quite fast, 10 to 15 seconds).

The connection is still active and unlike on iPhone which doesn't seem to drain battery even when it's active. Whatsapp on Symbian is a headache cause Nokia devices drain extremely lot of battery power when data connection is active. doh.gif

owh, torch light doesn't work when power saving mode is activated.

Pls check if you are running on power saving mode if your torch light is not functioning.


Added on July 17, 2011, 12:08 pmoops, doesnt work on normal mode too? Probably because of low battery? Need to install 3rd party torch like as a backup.

For mine, the torch works as I hold the lock toggle on homescreen till the phone vibrates. And vice versa.

I have to admit that the battery life for Nokia E6 is quite poor if push email is activated.

This is the 3rd time I am charging my phone within 24 hours. Well it is still early to conclude because I am now trying again with power saving mode activated. Hopefully it will at least bring the phone alive for at least a day.

Note:
1st charge - 3am
2nd charge - 1pm (at this point, I've deactivated FSecure because I suspected that it is depleting the battery faster than usual).
3rd charge - 12:45am (at this point, I've activated power saving mode. No background app is running but push email is still going on).

Yep, I do believe the pseudo-push email is depleting the battery quite fast. Its happened before on my N8, and I believe its the same for E6.
Have you tried changing the retrieval frequency in the setting? In my N8, that is helping with my battery life. A lot.
That to be said, my E6 battery still going strong after a day worth of usage (Over Wifi). Only 1 tiny bar depleted for now. Maybe I didn't push it hard enough? laugh.gif

Unfortunately, the email feature is very important to me and I need emails to be pushed without much delay. The next option I have is 15 minutes which is already too long.

I was happy that the email feature is more reliable than in Nokia E72 and N8 but if the battery is going down so fast, I can't use it as my primary corporate phone.

Hopefully the power saving mode can do a miracle. Otherwise, I have to get back to my BlackBerry sad.gif

nop, doesn' help. If the push email is on, no way i can make the phone last for a day.

By the way, anyone has problem with Usb OTG? Mine always says memory corrupted when i connect a thumb drive. Fat32 and NTFS has same issue. When i connect it to my computer, thumb drive is ok.

New battery may need several cycle before reaching optimum performance.

I find 3G suck battery almost twice as fast as GSM
