I had a Nokia E65.. so I eagerly awaited the delivery of this one to see if it compares. That was a brilliant phone, and this one is enhanced with GPS, and a better quality camera, so things were promising..
And as usual Nokia did not disappoint.
The sliding action of the phone has the same quality feel as before, it feels like it will work like that forever.
The buttons have a little bit more movement downwards when pressed, which is good, as on the E65 you were never sure, without looking at the screen, if it had registered.
The old E65 had a part hard plastic, part nice soft touch plastic casing. The soft touch plastic was prone to the soft part rubbing off. The new E66 is all polished metal plates on the back, and parts of the side, with good quality plastic forming the rest of the case. It is like a going from an old Ford Escort, into a new Ford Mondeo, with its modern interior finishing!
The wireless LAN connected immediately.
I have now successfully downloaded Garmin XT Satellite Navigation to the phone. All went smoothly (apart from finding an up to date, easy to download, free map of the UK! - but that is not the phones fault), and the system is just as good as on my N95 8GB.
The camera appears to give good quality images, but the smaller pixelation compared to the N95 is noticeable, especially in low light..
