Nokia E52 review: E as in Exceptional

11 August 2009
Eseries seem to have been around forever: grown-up, confident and reliable. It’s a small but solid lineup that’s gone a long way from a fairly late start. Perhaps they’ve got a point: the business Finns are not running against the clock to...

      I love it but the camera is too sucky. When is the E72 coming out anyway?

        b) it has OVI maps latest version preinstalled, including 1 year 'driving navigation' licence and a lifetime 'walking navigation' licence. Local maps are preloded but others can be downloaded from Nokia site (via PC) for free.

                    "Enhanced fixed focus"... Come on. That is an utter disappointment. The best-looking phone I have ever seen in my life and no autofocus... Grrrrr!

                      Hi! Do you have any idea how much does E52 cost when you buy it directly from a Nokia center and not from another cellular phone shop? I want to buy it from a Nokia center to be super sure that I'm getting the authentic phone and about the warranty terms. Philippines. Thanks.

                        trf, 17 Aug 2009it costs 17K in the philippines. probably will drop to 15K ... moreIt costs 15k in a cellshop in Maze at Ayala Center Cebu.

                        The phone is light as a feather.

                            I'm currently using the E51, and I'm really satisfied with it.
                            Reading this review makes me very excited to upgrade to E52.
                            Its feature-packed (more than most phones) yet very affordable.
                            Does it really turn silent when flipped over (just like the arte)?
                            Sweet!

                                    There isn't much to be said about the battery life other than what was said in the review. Heavy usage means using all the features: 3G, Camera, Wi-Fi, GPS extensively every day. Basically the same as the E71 was.

                                      E72 or E52? I know them both well but who can help decide?

                                        I'm thinking this phone does everything I want it to, and a lot more besides. However, couple of things I wouldn't mind knowing before I jump in and get it...

                                        a) Might seem trivial on a phone like this, but does it do smilies in messages? A friend has an E71 and it doesn't on hers.

                                        b) How much does it cost for the OVI maps? I think it's included free on the 6720 classic, so if a lot more to get it on E52 then might look at 6720 instead.

                                        Cheers...
