As my E63 with pre-installed Adobe reader 1.5 LE, this handset successfully handle 1-1.5 or 2 MB pdf files which include moderate Text+Image or only Text,
Beyond that it failed to open anything.

If you are in typical office environment it is ok...but if you planning to read e-books which is larger than 2 MB you get disappointed.

Though my test files are regular desktop version, not for mobile optimized version.

Music quality is clean & clear though it lack of bass even you use 'Bass Booster' equalizer preset...even my ep630 can't produce the booming effect.

It lacks HSDPA only UMTS & Camera produce quite passable image....lack of in-built GPS.....though u can still use Nokia Maps / Google Maps.

If you don't need those above feature...then it rocks in every aspect.

I would suggest a p1. Typing is a charm on the phone, and the camera is superb. It is hackable and you can port the walkman 3 into this phone as well. Change acoustics, etc,etc. Its reall cool and sounds great too. The touchscreen is really responsive too.

p1i for sure....

I would suggest buying the E63.

E63.

P1 uses uiq (uiq 3) ... but uiq , which is jointly owned by SE and motorola has filed for bankruptsy ... which means that uiq is as good as extinct ... so it will be difficult to get new apps for it ... but if u can live without that , go for the P1 ... but personally considering this development , e63 would be a much better buy

Thank you for repling , can i know the price of both?

E63 is 12k-13k
&
SE P1 is 15k-16k

Don't go for P1. Its is based on Symbian UIQ which is DEAD! Very less applications available.

JUMP for E63!

Go for P1i. You won't regret.
Typing is a pure pleasure.
Even though uiq is dead, almost all the major apps are already developed.
On the top u can custom mod ur phone.
Nothing to do with uiq death. Right nw the firmware is stable.

Yea, get the P1i. And dont expect anything but crap music quality from the E63. Watching vids on the P1 is pure bliss.

A friend (and a colleague) owns an E63 and I can tell you it sounds anything but crap. In fact it is one of the best sounding S60 phones from Nokia and also has a proper 3.5mm headphone jack. Hear it to believe it. Don't make presumptions.

is it true dat pdf, or any docs more than 2 mb wont open?

E 63 is any day better and newer than P1i

Nope. Both phones are capable of opening docs larger than 2 MB.

P1 is like a generation older man... Fcuk the specifications, E63 is the way to go.

I am using p990i, assuming p1 will have same or more features, nokia for battery, else p1

Another query, I read in some forum that docs cannot b created or edited on E63, Is it ture????

Of course you can...the version is loaded on the phone 4.1.37.3 but you can't handle newer office 2007 files (e,g:- .docx,xlsx)...maybe this you read in other forum.

and don't worry about losing it(due to format the phone/mem-card) because it integrate in phone's firmware.

AFAIK...all E-Series phone can edit basic office file out-of-the box.

Thank u, Very much, Really appreciated.
I was planing to buy it since its released, but cud not get any feed backs
I never thought i wud get such gr8 replies

Thank u, guysssss

"DIGIT ROCKS"
