E71 predictive text a ‘joy’

July 27th, 2008

Over on The Symbian Blog, Vaibhav Sharma has been getting to grips with the keypad of the E71, and he reckons that for those who are large of thumb, this device includes a little godsend…

Due to the ‘size hit’ that the E71 has taken over larger devices (such as the E61i and the E90), the keypad and keys are necessarily smaller than on the larger E-series devices. This forces those users with bigger fingers to adjust to the smaller layout, something that can be tricky. Vaibhav however, reckons the predictive text function of the E71 is the key to preventing him from returning to a device with more keypad real estate. The auto-complete function works on many words simply by hitting the space bar, and there is often a good selection of words to choose from. All potential changes easily selected and inputted making typing a breeze. When a mistake has been made, the E71 ‘happily fixes spellings’ and enables much faster typing. Without this predictive option, Vaibhav reckons that he’d find the E71 ‘very hard to use’ and wouldn’t ‘give it a second look’ so this is certainly a key feature.

Are you in the same boat as Vaibhav? Has the E71’s predictive function saved it from being confined to your ‘useless devices’ drawer? Head over to his site and leave him a comment.
