"Yes, we can!" might be the answer from Nokia. As you might have read my early reviews, the E71 is -- from my point of view -- the best device Nokia every made for business user. So, question is: How can you improve such a device?

Well, first of all keep all the "good" features: solid material, great design, impressive uptime, very convenient management of communication (email etc.) and awesome keyboard. So where is place for improvement? Well, there is like place, but let's head for that one.

• At first there is the camera of the E71. That one definitely is not state-of-the-art in 2009. So Nokia decided to head for a 5 Mpix Sensor with auto focus and on-chip image processing feature for different operation modes. This gives you a nice opportunity to take great pictures with your new E72 business phone.
• Secondly the E72 comes with a 3,5 mm audio plug. This is one of the features I loved most from the 5800. Simply take the headphones you like or simply connect your phone to your stereo with an ordinary audio cable. I can even connect my AKG headphone to my phone now - great!
• To most impressive innovation is the optical Navi(tm)-pad. It allows simple navigation and scrolling without pressing buttons. Simply move your finger over the sensor to navigate on your device. Very very nice.

All together: Good Job Nokia! The E72 is definitely a worthy successor of the E71.
