My new mobile gear

I bought my new phone in early February & so far I'm quite happy with it.



My new phone is the Nokia E5. Cost me RM 740, but it comes free with a Nokia Bluetooth headset (RM 138). While it's not as feature-packed as other smartphones, I preferred this model for a few reasons.

First of all, it's cheaper compared to other phones that are easily over RM 1,000; It comes with a free Bluetooth headset (save another RM 138 there); So far, I've never seen anyone using this particular model, so that made my choice somewhat unique (while virtually everyone is using an iPhone); It has a WiFi feature that allows me to go online for free (I always check my mails and Facebook every now & then); And it also has Ovi Maps with navigation, which again saved me money as I was planning to buy a GPS unit.

Yup, I'm happy with my Nokia E5, espacially the maps/navigation feature. Sure, it's nothing compared to a dedicated GPS unit, but it gets the job done nicely.
