Nokia E71 is available in the Dubai

Nokia E71 is available in the UAE now in all leading retail stores.
We sure have a lot of expectations on the E71 as it is a successor to the very popular E61 and E61i models.
A simple review shows the phone is excellent, good looks, great functionality, easy to use, very good business tool boasting email features, video call camera, Bluetooth, Wifi.
The only drawback we can see is that the keyboard is small and difficult to type. Maybe it will be ok after we get used to the small keys.

The price for English version is 2199 AED. For Arabic/English it is 2105 in all big shops and 1600 in Alain centre, Computer Plaza.
last night i bought my phone for 1400 and its made in korea!
The price of Nokia E71 (englishkeyboard)is approximately US$ 422 here.
AED 1400.What do u guys think?Is it Worth?
But E71 is a terrific phone for AED 1400
thx
Is the AED 1400 price with a warranty?
E71 in leading stores in UAE is selling for approximately Dhs 1,950
I do not think the 1400 price will be with warranty since it seems to be out of UAE stocks.
thanks
I bought E71 for 1350 AED from khaleej centre
opposit Etisalat office.
n about dis mob very frndly n gooood functions
very helping 4 typng sms,mails........
thanks nokia
in UAE made FINLAND are duplicate? I heard
that Korean made is only the original
I think it is correct because shops will tell you if it is with or without warranty. We have seen in many places the price is 1225 - 1350 so your price is correct. Carrefour does not mean cheapest, some of their items are more expensive, specially since they are a hypermarket/retailer and not a simple shop. This way they cannot drop prices, they need to consult Nokia distributor first!
you can get from sharaf dg or sharaf digital, good price. you can find them in deira citycenter. you can go to carrefour as well.
Price of nokia e71 is still dhs 1225 - 1350, retailers selling for dhs 1625-1690
You should be able to get it in Marina Mall. PlugIns Electronix is there in the ground floor I remember seeing it there. You can also get it in Carrefour.
Price of nokia e71 is still dhs 1225 - 1350, retailers selling for dhs 1625-1690
I want to know is Nokia E71 made in Korea is a real phone or just like copy of original like Made in China. I have got one of Korea, but it dont have all functions as original Nokia E71. Its keypad is a normal key. Not having extra keys. Plz answer or email me at jalilahmed99@hotmail.com

Dear Adiss:
It is evident that Nokia is simply jerking me around.
As I have exhausted all resources & given you sufficient leeway, you regrettably leave me
with no choice but to approach the press viz Gulf News & the Khaleej Times, for starters.

[Message:Dear Madam/Sir:
I bought a Nokia E66 from the ‘Switch’ store located in Lamcy Plaza
Dubai on 23
April 2009.
Yesterday, the phone screen began to blank out. Today, I took the phone back to Switch, who directed
me to the Nokia Authorized Service points. I then approached Aptec Gulf (Al Safina Bldg, Zabeel
Road, PO Box 33550, Dubai), who after inspection, estimated 3-4 days for the repair.
On requesting for a replacement phone set during the course of repair, Aptec advised me that they
would only do so if the phone was bought from them.
I then went back to Switch, in the hope that they would provide a similar customer service. I was
however mistaken, as this request was rejected by Mr. Zoher in Switch.
As a last resort, I called Nokia UAE on 8000 444 9813. I first spoke with Mr. Jade, who asked to
speak with Mr. Zoher in Switch as I was still in the store, bereft of a phone. After speaking with
Mr. Zoher, Mr. Jade disconnected the phone, inspite of me waiting to hear his decision. I then
recalled Nokia. Mr. Jade handed over the phone to Mr. Kamar, who expressed his unwillingness to give
me a replacement phone set.
Please let me know if this is the policy of Nokia.
After having paid AED 1350 (US$370), I would have imagined that the Nokia phone would last me a lot
more than 3 months!
Inspite of having a choice of several brands of mobile phones, I chose Nokia. I am hoping to have
been satisfied with the Nokia shopping experience, which so far appears cynical.
I would appreciate if you could look into the matter & respond with a solution, at the
earliest.
I hope you can appreciate the importance of being contactable, especially in my sales &
marketing role.
As you can see, I have merely shuttled between the store & service center, still devoid
of a
solution to the above.
Please note that I had to brave the searing summer temperatures of Dubai, lack to parking space as
well as the time & effort spent attempting to resolve my Nokia fiasco.

thank you.
if you are worried about duplicates, best is to buy from a reputed retailer. You can go to Sharaf DG, Cellucom, Axiom. You will not get duplicates there.
Usually shopkeepers will tell you if it is original or duplicate.
Cheers
If you plan to stay in Dubai then buy the phone from Dubai because of easier warranty issues. Price is still stable for E71

E52 and E71 very similar, E52 is newer but E71 sells much more than E52.
Internal memory E71 has a bit more, E52 has faster processor otherwise they almost match each other in terms of camera mega pixel, wifi, 3G, bluetooth
e71 is around aed 1299, e52 should be something similar..
Good luck!
E71 should be around USD 335, cant get Finland much nowadays. Need to double check latest price of E63
can u tell me price of nokia e 71 and nokia e 73 72.what thing we should check before purchace the mobile
e71 is around aed 1299 and e72 is aed 1990. no e73 yet.
just check the warranty coverage before purchasing!
with and without warranty ?
The latest one is e72 though, AED 1999
I'm leaving the country soon so if anyone is interested in the phone and in buying it second hand, it still has the warranty and no changes have been made to it.
Email me via this message .. I'm in Abu Dhabi :)
can you please tell me the current price of nokia E63... I am in a dilemma whether to chose E71 or E63...
thanks
why dont you go for e72, the price dropped just yesterday, now it is aed 1,470 only! e71 is around aed 1,100
ranged around 1000 aed which phone is the best one
You can choose between E52 and E63. E63 will not be available in big retail stores, you need to try smaller high street shops.
E71 is a little more than AED 1,000 budget but a very good phone as well.
Where have you seen the offer in Abu Dhabi? There is nothing like it in Dubai as far as I know.
I think there will be a lot of conditions if this was true, like you need to purchase something else along with the E72..
I dont think you will find an E72 made in Finland. I was at the nokia stores the other day and they dont have made in Finland as well!!
It is dhs 1,475 now.
in UAE now in FEB/
Are you talking of E71? E71 is dhs 1200 now.
i fly on friday to dubai.
Now i want to know what the price of the nokia e72 and nokia 6700 classic is.
E71 is still 1200 uae?!
Thank you sooo much!
e72 is still around AED 1400

You should go to Meena Bazar/Al Fahidi street in Bur Dubai, ask for warranty Nokia phones. They are usually cheaper here. I think you can get it for around AED 1,000
Best of luck!
We heard rumors like that as well but we dont know for sure. What we know is that Nokia's own stores in UAE didnt have made in Finland stock, they had Korean ones so why buy made in Finland??
if i buy E 71 or 72 frm dubai can i use tat in india ??
I'm looking for a Nokia-E71...Can anybody tell me the current price in Dubai?
Nokia E71 price in Dubai, UAE is around Dhs 1,000 (one thousand) only.
i would like to know that e51, e63, and e71 are available in market and whats the price, where can i get one, plus if i need to buy it in 2nd hand condition... were should i approach... would really appreciate

Yes nokia makes these phones but e63 is sometimes hard to get as many stores do not have the official stocks.
i m loking for whole seller in dubai for original new nokia mobile phones if any one knows pls help me to know where and how i can find thier contact informations.if any body knows non custom paid mobile phones that would be so nice of u.thanks
i give exchanging with E71.
e71 is around dhs 1,000. You need to check out shops who buy and sell second hand phones for exchange, so try Meena Bazar/Fahidi Street in Bur Dubai.
Bahrain and it's made from Korea,
Is it orginal pc. Also it is getting heat
after talking morethan 5 minutes. kindly
advice
Shabu.s
Kindgom of Bahrain
While we cannot say for sure if it is original, we can say that there are many originals made in Korea. If you got it for near the original price then it should be original.
For over heating, try restarting your phone. If overheating persists then you should take it to the service centre.
I live in Sharjah.and I wanna buy a E71.Can any one tell me,
where can I buy the original set with good price.
thanks .
You can buy from the malls like mega mall or sahara centre. You can also visit safeer mall Sharaf DG.
