E71 Screensaver = The iSaver
Well this time I was on my way to Paris to visit a few friends. I actually had this planned for months and now when the time had come I had just the gadget to take with me – Nokia E71. Thats right the full QWERTY sexy little thing. I know you would say that I compromised on the camera a bit but on this trip it was more important for me to keep in touch with my mails and of course you through my blog.

Well the point today I want to share with you all is that a while back I had replied to Charlie’s Post of add, divide and multiply at the Nokia Conversations about the no good screensaver we have in the high end S60 Smart phones. Practically you couldn’t even see what the screensaver displayed be it date, time or picture. I know that a few S40 devices came with animated cool screensaver but why was this not the case with the S60 version. Well, after giving my feedback I literally forgot about it and it just happened by chance that I discovered the something very interesting in my E71 when we were 2 hours from reaching Paris. I was in a trance state. Half sleepy half awake. I took out my E71 from one of my pockets don’t remember which one to check how much time was left. Somehow I accidently pressed the four way navigation key and boom, there was the best ever screensaver I had ever seen. Take a peek below.

This I feel is a more useful thing as now you dont have to strain your eyes as you did to look at the practically invisible custom screensaver and nor do you need to unlock the device. Good job on the part of the designers. The best Part is you get to see the time with real ease. As the title of the post goes, The E71 screensaver really saves your Eyes from a whole lot of strain. Remember these words are coming from a doctor. Thus the all new E71 ‘i’ saver is here.
So I feel Charlie is constantly listening to us and making sure that the coming products are more user friendly. Good Job Charlie.
How does this work?
Your E71 should be locked.
On the blank screen (or when the regular screensaver is there) just press any of the four navigation keys or the d-pad center button.
