Nokia E52 silver deals

The Nokia E52 is a powerful, yet slim, stainless steel smartphone with a 600 MHz CPU. Aimed at business users, or people who like to keep their lives organised, the E52 is a third generation phone, following the E50 and E51. The newcomer is a slender 9.9mm in depth and 98g in weight. However it is not to be assumed that any concessions have been made to allow for the size of the phone. It has a 2.4 inch QVGA display, a comfortable keypad, impeccable build quality and a fantastic specification.

The Nokia E52 has the latest Symbian S60 OS, it comes with feature pack 2 and you’ll find lots of finely-tuned improvements when comparing to previous Eseries devices. There are plenty of applications pre-installed, including all the document viewers you would anticipate plus support for MS Office 2007. Connectivity covers everything including Wi-Fi, HSDPA (up to 10.2 Mbps), A-GPS, Bluetooth an FM radio and a digital compass. The 2.4 inch display has an accelerometer, which is useful for reading documents, web pages and emails, or for watching movies. There’s a 3.5mm audio jack and class-leading audio quality. In fact, the media capabilities are excellent for a phone that is aimed primarily at business users. A 1GB memory card is included, which can be upgraded to 16GB.

A basic 3.2 megapixel camera is on-board. It has a fixed focus with an LED flash, which is okay for taking occasional pictures but it won’t compete with the latest dedicated camera phones. Overall the E52 is a great device, certainly the best compact smartphone currently on the market.
