Straight Talk Nokia E71 (Part 1 in HD)

Here is another review of my Straight Talk Nokia E71. This time with a way better camera. This was my first time using the camcorder so I tended to zoom in alot during the review, sorry. Also, Please tell me what else y'all want me to film/review and I will do so.


**Update** (04-11-11)

Straight Talk has now twice disconnected my data service because of me tethering my phone to my PC. On 04-04-11, I noticed my data wasn't working. So I called ST and they simply fixed the issue with NO explanation. On 04-08-11, They again suspended my data service, but this time when I called, I had to speak to a supervisor and was asked some questions about my data usage for the past 3 weeks. I of-course acted stupid and didn't say anything, but after the CSR was done asking me those questions, He stated that if I was "Red Flagged" again for heavy data usage, That my service would be terminated. Not suspended, but TERMINATED. Now, I was stupid and was using it to tether everyday for sometimes 10+ hrs at a time to my PC. I know I used around 30 gigs in about 3 weeks. Thats EXTREME, I know, and stupid. So I can only blame myself, Not ST or even At&t. Like I said in my other review video about tethering with this phone and ST. Keep it under 5 gigs per month and you will be fine. Anything over will send a red flag to ST and they will suspend your data service until your next month or until you call them to fix the issue.

so how is video calling?

@dicknut9, Its ok. It gets the job done. Its no 4.3-inch Android super phone. But then again this phone is almost 4yrs old and can still hang with most current Smart Phones to date. The phone itself is still in my opinion one of the top 50 best cell phones of all time. This phone is more of a work horse then an expensive play toy like most phones today are.

hows the battery life? i have the optimus q off of ST and it sucks. i will be texting through the whole day. hows the battery? for my phone i have to charge it like three times per day. give me ur opinions :)

[csy30076]

@STGBig, Thw battery life is MUCH better then any Android phone. I remember when I had this phone back in Nov, 2011 that I could go 1 day easy before needing to recharge it.

2.5 mm headphones port? Does that mean I have to buy a special pair of headphones or are all basic headphones 2.5?

[csy30076]

@munchlaxasa, Yes. Or just buy Bluetooth Headphones

I have another question. I called customer service & got hold of someone who didnt? speak English. I asked them if this phone could use WiFi to also connect for making regular phone calls, or was it just for data. They said that this phone DOESNT have WiFi at all. I have a T-Mobile Blackberry which I hate,& I have to connect it to my router w/the WiFi, just to get 2 bars. I see where the videos say they have WiFi & Edge, if its not connected w/ Wifi. Just like my phone now does. Please help
