At first glance, the E70 looks rather like any other candy-bar form factor mobile phone, albeit a touch bigger and chunkier at 117 by 53 by 22 mm and with a carrying weight of 127g. That's hardly surprising for a phone that sells itself on its business savyy, where having a super-slim form factor is less of a concern than whether you'll be able to synchronize to your e-mail client.

The main physical feature of the E70 that separates it from the candybar herd is the flip out thumbpad that rests behind and underneath the main dialing pad; you flip the dialing pad over the "top" of the phone, and it reveals a small spilt QWERTY keyboard underneath. When the keypad is open, the display on the 352x416-pixel screen flips from a vertical to horizontal perspective, indicating the correct way to hold the E70 when using the keyboard.
