Hey guys,

My phone recently broke down, used to have a nokia e51, and while looking for a new one i've stumbled upon the E5 on gsmarena.com . After comparing specs with the e72 i can't say i see any obvious reasons to go for the latter except for the accelerometer and the optical trackpad ?

The E5 is cheaper by 50 euros over here, so i'm just trying to figure out if there's something i'm missing.

I'm not a Nokia fanboy or anything like that, i just want a phone with a good battery life, and a qwerty keyboard since i'd be using it for texting mostly and only browsing a couple of forums from time to time. That being said, any other suggestions are more than welcomed.

Thanks!

I owned Nokia E52 which I think is pretty much similar phone but E5 & E72 have qwearty keyboard

I can't tell you much about E72 but E52 is amazing phone...battery lasts about two weeks...despite 3.2mp camera..it takes awesome picture..really good phone

E72 have similar specs to E52 so battery should last same time..

Yeah, i've messed around for a couple of minutes with a E52 and it did feel really nice. What i was really asking is whether the extra features ( which i don't consider all that important of the e72 over the e5 i.e. 16M color screen as opposed to the 256k of the e5, less RAM, 128 vs 256, autofocus on the camera, and the trackpad for browsing purposes maybe ? ) are actually worth the 50 euros.

Thanks for the reply, though Very Happy

e72 frontal camera, better battery, better screen and those sensors.

If you don't mind that go with e5. Also E5 is more of a normal user phone, social integration and stuff.

Well it seems to me that based on the specs alone the E5 has more standby time and more 2G talk time than the e72, despite the e72's battery having more mAh Confused Can anyone confirm that irl the e72 actually lasts longer ? One of the features of the e72 that i like is that it's got the autofocus for the camera which would allow me to take better document pics and that would make my life considerably easier. Still not sure whether or not it's worth the extra money though Confused

Edit: Oh, and i rechecked and the actual price difference is about 80 euros between the two Rolling Eyes

Yeah, looks like e72 has less standby time, but more work time. And it has a better battery management.

If you ask me, its not worth spending 80 euros more. Go with E5.
