As the American model was tested (boygeniusreport.com) (I hope it will reach Europe), the GSM module had a frequency of 850/1900 MHz with UMTS / HSDPA support. The phone has Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g, Bluetooth version 2.0, and the long-awaited GPS. Camera 3.2 MP 1500 mAh battery. After a day of severe use, testers have 2 divisions left. In general, E61 (i) were famous for their good batteries: up to a week of average use. I myself used both, I know).
Why is this phone waiting? Yes, because with a full-fledged keyboard for a long time nothing came of (WM-device does not count).
We are waiting in Russia.
PS In general, we somehow do not have much demand for this line. Why - FIG knows it ... But I hope they bring it to us, and even the Nokia E61i is already running out of stock.
