So I got my Nokia E71 from Globe Telecoms. It comes free with Plan P1800 but I have to add a little cash to get that unit. I didn’t even think of what unit I will get from Globe because all I wanted is a unit which I can sell at a higher value so I can afford to buy an Iphone. But then when I checked out the unit, I started to fell in love with it. So I asked around and check reviews on the web and I found a lot of sites comparing Nokia E71 with Iphone so I guess E71 is Iphone’s rival.
So now I am torn. I love Iphone’s look and reputation. Just like what my best friend Dennis had mentioned when I asked him for his advice, he said the stature of Iphone alone is enough reason for me to choose it over E71 and I don’t have to think of any other aspects like E71’s functionality. Who cares about functionality when you can look really cool with your Iphone. LOL.
But then I realized after browsing the net that Iphone don’t have Bluetooth (it has one but you can only use it for Bluetooth handheld device), no SMS forwarding, no Copy and Paste, can’t receive Business Cards, no MMS, it can’t shoot videos and it has a poor signal. And these are the things that are important for me.
I remember before when XDA was the coolest thing on the market. I bought one and then I realize that it lacks a lot of nice features of a Nokia phone and after a week of using it, I got pissed with it and sold it. So now I am scared to try out the Iphone because the same things might happen again – I will feel unhappy if I can’t find the features that I am used to with my Nokia phone.
Decisions, decisions, decisions….I have to make one really soon….

Keep the E71 and you will have no regret whatsoever. Iphone is just a trend everybody follows, but you do not have to be one of the "everybody".
