      @ kayc
      Hi, do you have any idea about the internal RAM of E52?
      Neither nokia nor gsmarena has given clear statement on it.

          hi,
          I have been using nokia c5 for the past 3 weeks or so... it is a good looking phone... it comes with ovi maps and other nokia usual stuffs... lack of wifi is a huge drawback for this phone... also the internal ram is not enough for ur fast using.. it tends to hang on... u need to restart to to make ur phone normal... on the account of gprs, i use aircel, but the speed is too slow.. i dont know if it is due to the phone or the service provider... the sound quality is good... one speciality abt this phone is the battery life.. this ismy 1st nokia phone i really realise why nokia's battery is always appreciated... it is very slim... I accept tht the phone is overpriced...

          so my final call is may be 6/10...

            contact name match and a big box with the numbers. If you
            want to dial the matching contact, just press the up
            navi key to highlight the contact and press the green call button.

            If you want to dial the number, just press the
            green call button right away.

            What does it say for you ?

                  The phone also has voice navigation in hindi and urdu (which needs to be download using ovi suite. only english is installed by default).

                  Maps are accurate but landmarks (like restaurants, petrol
                  pumps etc.) are not very up-to-date. Google maps will probably
                  be better.

                    Speed dialling can be configured by settings>speed dialling

                    Voice dialling won't work very well because it cannot reliably recognize pronunciation of indian names. But not
                    too bad.

                            Anonymous, 13 Aug 2010hai kayc i saw you solving lots of people's problems ... moreOpera mini is not installed by default. But you can get it
                            for free from store.ovi.com or opera's own website.

                            bsnl 3g works great in bangalore and gives download speed
                            faster than bsnl's dsl broadband.

                            I'm on the basic bsnl 3g plan (1 paise for 10 kb). There
                            are other plans too if you want to use it heavily (visit
                            bsnl website for tariff).

                            No idea about video calling without front camera.
