7 reasons Nokia E7 can outrun your laptop

MANILA, Philippines - With the fast development of mobile technology, the power to do almost anything is in your hands. You can conduct business phone conferences, plug your smartphone to a corporate system, and be productive on the move without having to carry multiple devices. And it won’t be long before you could do tasks you normally accomplish using your laptops right on your mobile phone.

True enough, Nokia, the world’s number one mobile phone brand introduces the Nokia E7, the ultimate business smartphone.

The new Nokia E7 is capable of many of the tasks traditionally performed only on laptops, such as actions related to the PowerPoint-saturated meeting culture.

If you’re going on a business trip, here are seven great reasons you can leave your laptop behind and just bring along a Nokia E7 when you go abroad:

• Messaging. You start your day eating breakfast while skimming through mails and responding to those needing quick action. Good thing, the Nokia E7 has a full keyboard feature that allows you to easily respond to e-mails. You can also do conference calls with your colleagues back in the Philippines using the Microsoft Communicator Mobile, an instant messaging and presence application that connects you with online colleagues in the office while away and on the go.

• Calendar. Then, the Calendar will alert you on your day’s schedule. The Nokia E7 will remind you when to hit the road and will keep you on track of your appointments so you will avoid delays.

• Documents. While on the way to your business meeting, you could still review or finish your reports and presentations. The Nokia E7 supports Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint documents, and has a PDF reader that makes doing most types of documents a breeze.

• WLAN and Mobile VoIP. Need to download files from the Internet? No problem, because the Nokia E7 has a built-in WLAN connectivity that notifies you on available access points to connect to the Internet. It also allows you to connect to the Mobile VoIP client and make extremely cheap phone calls to your colleagues and contacts, anytime and anywhere in the world. Now, you don’t have to worry about paying data tariff which can be extremely high when traveling.

• Maps. When traveling to a different country, navigating your way through different locations could be a pain. For example, if you’re staying at the Mira and need to attend a meeting at the Peninsula Hotel, a quick check at the Ovi Maps on your Nokia E7 will tell you that your destination is just down the road, helping you save a few dollars on cab fare. 

• HDMI. Impress everyone by plugging your smartphone directly to the HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connection on the projector and show your slides on the big screen. When your client requests for a copy of the presentation, connect a memory stick to the Nokia E7 via the USB-on-the-go cable, which is the quickest possible way. This revolutionary capability eliminates the need to use a PC to first transfer the file to a memory stick or send via e-mail.

• Internet and apps. Finally, during your free time, you can stay in touch with things that matter to you. Check the Web or be entertained with apps and games you could download at the Ovi Store.

While the Nokia E7 might never totally replace your trusty laptop, with these reasons said, it’s definitely a great alternative, especially when weight and size matters, particularly when you’re going to move around and travel a lot.
