Nokia E63 Specs Info Revealed

After info on the Nokia E75 and E72 was leaked one month ago, news about another Eseries device - Nokia E63 - has now surfaced on the Internet. Although the new handset hasn't been confirmed yet, there are pictures with the device and a user agent profile available on Nokia servers, which can be viewed here.

The new supposedly expected Eseries handset sports GPRS, EDGE and HSDPA (3.6 or 7.2 Mbps) connectivity, a 2 Megapixel camera, but no secondary camera for video-calls, Bluetooth, WLAN, Java MIDP 2.0 and CLDC 1.1, QWERTY keyboard, a generous TFT display supporting a 240x320 pixel resolution and a 3.5mm jack connector port.

The design of the phone strongly resembles that of the latest addition to the Eseries portfolio - E71. Nevertheless, there are quite a few differences in its construction, many of which could be considered of major importance, like the fact that E63 doesn't have a metallic body (except NaviKey and camera module); instead, it's totally made of plastic.

Also, E63 is a little bit thicker than the E71 and doesn't have any side buttons. As you can see from the pictures, Nokia E63 includes a microSD card slot for memory expansion and a microUSB port for PC synchronization. However, to some, the embedded Symbian S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 could seem a little bit obsolete for a such a new device.

There's also a nice feature available for the module camera of the E63: the flashlight function, which can be both activated and disabled by pressing the space bar. Rumors say that the phone will be available in three versions: E63-1 for Europe, E63-2, which won't have a camera module, but more internal memory, and E63-3 for the US.

As there's no official announcement regarding the new handset, no pricing or availability details are known yet, but it will probably be announced by the end of the year.
