Nokia E63 Accessories Round Up

The Nokia E63 has been around for a few months now and is a great phone for those that spend a lot of time texting, emailing or instant messaging. It’s based on the popular Nokia E71 and E72 business phones. It’s not too different to the E71 – the main difference being that it has a plastic outer shell rather than metal. To keep the handset costs down some of the high end features didn’t make it into the E63, but it still has Wi-Fi, great battery life, expandable memory and a 2MP camera.

If you’ve got the Nokia E63, you’re going to want to make the most of all of it’s features, and to do that you’ll need to invest in a few extra accessories, so to help you find the best ones I’ve compiled my list of some of our most popular E63 Accessories.

Noreve Tradition A Leather Case for Nokia E63

Noreve produce high quality cases for a range of top end smart phones. The Noreve Flip Case for the Nokia e63 is an elegant case that gives Piel Frama and PDair a run for their money. The case has a stitched pocket that holds your phone securely and doesn’t cover any of the screen or keypad. The whole case is hand crafted from top quality leather and leaves your camera, charging ports and volume keys accessible. The case has a detachable ratchet clip on the back that can be removed easily to leave the back of the case perfectly flat.

Nokia DC-4 Car Charger

Keeping your E63 charged in the car is easy with the Nokia DC-4 Car Charger. It features a tangle proof cable, LED indicator and will stop charging your E63 once the battery is full. The DC-4 Car Charger will work in Cars, Vans and Trucks and works on both 12v & 24v.

Brodit Passive Holder with Tilt Swivel – Nokia E63

The safest and  easiest way to use your Nokia E63 in the car is to have it mounted in a fixed holder. Brodit Car Holders are moulded specifically for your phone from a tough ABS plastic. They are designed to be screwed to a Brodit ProClip – a damage free bracket that clips onto your dashboard without marking it. If you prefer you can also screw them directly into your dashboard or attached it to a windscreen suction mount. Brodit Car Holders leave all ports and keys accessible on your phone.

Capdase Privacy Guard – Nokia E63

The E63 is all about messaging, and there’s nothing worse than having the person next to you reading what’s on your screen. These privacy guards are screen protectors that not only protect your phone against scratches, the also protect it from prying eyes. They’re cleverly constructed to let only allow the person holding the phone see the screen. Try glancing it it from any other angle and you just see a dark screen. Perfect for when you’re reading confidential work emails or telling that special someone how much you miss them while you’re on the train!

Desktop Battery Charger For Nokia Batteries

One of Nokia’s strongest features in all of their phones is the battery life. Compared to most modern smartphones their batteries last extremely well – the E63 for example should give you over 2 weeks standby and almost 5 hours of talk time. For some though, this might not be enough. Carrying a spare battery is the best way to keep talking, especially if you’re going to be out of the office all day with out access to power. The only downside to spare batteries is that you have to charge them up while they’re in the phone – something that most people tend to forget. This desktop charger is a perfect solution to that problem. just sit your spare battery in it, plug it in to your existing car or mains charger and your battery will be charged and ready to go when you  are.

SanDisk MicroSDHC Card – 8GB Without Reader

The camera on the E63 is great for snapping photo’s while you’re out and about, but if you’re anything like me, these photos will stay on your phone and rarely get transferred over to your PC. As a result, you’ll find your memory card soon fills up and you have to start deleting stuff to carry on taking photos or to add more music to your phone. Memory cards have come down in price considerably over the last 12 months and you can now get an 8GB memory card for less than £20 and a 16GB memory card for less than £31.

Nokia BH-607 Bluetooth Headset

The Nokia BH-607 is Nokia’s latest Bluetooth headset and will look great with your E63. Controls are simple, one button to answer/end calls and another to activate voice dialling, read out text messages, send a predefined sms or hear the time. The headset has a detachable earloop and is one of the smartest bluetooth headsets to come out of Nokia in quite a while. Charging time is around 15 minutes for about 5 hours talk time or 120 hours standby.

Bluetooth GPS Receiver

The Nokia E63 can be used as a GPS and most will come with Nokia Maps pre-installed, but as the phone doesn’t have a GPS receiver built in, you’ll need to purchase one separately. Bluetooth GPS receivers are extremely compact and this one is not much bigger than a box of matches.

It connects to your phone using bluetooth and will provide your phone with a GPS signal, enabling you to use it for sat nav, sports tracking, geo tagging photos and loads more. You don’t need any special software on the phone, just pair it up, download the app you want to use it with from the OVI store and away you go.

Jabra Cruiser Bluetooth Speakerphone

If you want to listen to music from your E63 in your car, the Jabra Cruiser is a great wireless way to do it. The Cruiser is a small, slim portable car kit that combines an FM transmitter with a Bluetooth Car Kit. The Jabra Cruiser simply clips to the sun visor of your car and pairs to your E63 using Bluetooth. The Cruiser can stream your music to it over Bluetooth and you can control your music using the built in controls rather than your phone as the Cruiser supports both the A2DP and AVRCP profiles.

There are two choices for when it comes to listening to your music. You can either play your music back through the built in speaker or through your car stereo using it’s built in FM Transmitter. It ’s currently the only car kit to have dual microphones for improved noise reduction. If you spend a lot of time in the car taking calls and are bored of listening to the radio then the Jabra Cruiser is a must have item. If you don’t want/need the music controls then take a look at the Jabra SP700. It does the same job but without the music controls and noise cancelling dual microphones.

There should be something in this list for everyone, but if not, we’ve got a wide range of E63 Covers, E63 Cases and E63 Screen Protectors over on the main site. If you’ve got any E63 accessories that we don’t have listed, let us know using the comments form below.
