As is typical high end Nokia phones , the E63’s display won’t disappoint you. It looks good indoors, as well as when exposed to direct sunlight, though in the latter situation the colors become a bit undistinguishable.

Based on the popular business smartphone, a full keyboard is now available to everyone. Its appearance is more casual, replacing the metal with a high-quality plastic
