Nokia E71

Stand-by Time 410 hour (17 days)
Talk time 10 h 30 minutes

Philips Xenium 9@9e

Stand-by Time 1 month
Talk time 8.5 hours

Seems Nokia is still the best when it comes to batteries.

It makes little difference if the stand-by time is high. A phone with that much features will not get much rest in my hands & internet, camera, video/music player, radio. etc features take much more energy that simple phone conversation. So the effective stand by time would be some thing like 5-6 hours max.

It would be nice if some company produce a phone that can be connected to car battery.

Yeh even i seen the ad a few times on telly! It seems like a good phone, but only everything is revealed when a phone is seen in real, if its something big and chunky you may as well go for an ordinary phone, least it will look good!

Anyone brought the phone yet or know anyone who has brought it?

Nokia E71 is the best mobile phone I have ever used battery lasts longer then most other smart phones and i you dont keep your gprs on 24/7 then you wont have to charge it every day may be every two days

There is so much in this little phone that you would find new things about it every day for more then a month if you buy it

Its simply amazing.

Sony phone are good. But they don't have support for many 3rd party software. And the inbuilt software don't have many features. What I like about Sony phones is the Camera and Sound quality.

Somehow I don't like Nokia phones.I don't know why.I prefer SE and Samsung.They are more "youthful" phones.I have been using SE K750i and I love it.

Nokia is not very good in the field of designing. Nokia is best for people who care more about performance, features & durability than looks. Sony Ericsson have the best phones there is, when it comes to style.
