Nokia E52
The basics
Nokia’s E52 is designed primarily with business users in mind but its features ought to mean it stretches outside that box. A solid hardware design, Wi-Fi, HSDPA, GPS, 3.2-megapixel camera, 2.4-inch, 240x320-pixel screen with auto rotation, and a strong built in software bundle are among its strengths. It measures 116x49x9.9mm and weighs just 98g.
The good
The Nokia E52 means business. It looks sharper than any suit in Lord Alan's wardrobe (which isn't saying much), and is more savvy than the entire Dragon's Den panel put together. First up it measures just 9.9mm, but feels reassuringly heavy. Web-surfers, meanwhile, will be happy to hear it sports HSDPA, HSUPA and Wi–Fi, but it's the email that's the standout feature here. It's a breeze to use. We put all our accounts on the homepage no problemo, allowing us to keep up to date with emails about the millions we've been left by Nigerian uncles we never knew we had. Battery life's just as sweet, rocking a whopping 23 days in standby.
The bad
Er, not a lot to mention here. If we're being really picky we'd say that it only has an average 3.2-megapixel camera. But that's if we're really being picky. So, move along now. Nothing to see here..
The bottom line
Is this Nokia's best phone ever? In a word: possibly. It's certainly up there with the best Nseries efforts. Stunning!

OK, the menus are good are they? Stand out feature is it's a breeze to use??? Sorry guys, maybe for some functions but not the simple stuff. I've just been given this by my business and it is nothing like the intuitive stuff I expect from Nokia. There's no "delete - one by one or all" function like there is on the 6200 and 6300 series, and some simple functions like alarm clock settings are three levels down and needs a glance at te manual to find it. Not only that, the phone won't retrospectively link text senders' number's with their contact names, so uploaded texts from PC Suite have only numbers as senders. Won't even solve this when the contact is added. Bluetooth comms, WLAN access and WAP works great, so it's a real shame that it's so clunky to use for ordinary old school things. Dreadful, don't even think about it. Get a 6303 instead.

Alot of the problems TrevC metions are operating system differences between S60 and S40 the phone itself is as smart as a Vertu and if you want a phone that will do most things but at the same time small enough to have you checking you actually have it on you, then its for you, saying that it does need a serious firware upgrade to be stable but then all new Nokia phones do
