CNET Asia Review

The good: Slim, solid design; stainless steel construction; multiple dedicated buttons and shortcut keys; excellent tactility; HSDPA, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stereo A2DP; generous 130MB of onboard memory; snappy performance.

The bad: Back cover attracts fingerprints easily; preinstalled Quickoffice is read-only version.

The bottom line: Simple is good, and that's what the E51 is. It may not have a fancy design, but the E51 excels in nearly all other aspects with a truckload of connectivity features, good performance and attractive price point for an enterprise phone.

Opinion:
Well, how do you rate a phone these days?
I don't know how cnet reviews are done, but i'll tell you how i use the phone in a daily basis:

I use it as my mp3 player when:
*Driving my car. Running. At my office (sometimes). It's about 1,5 hours daily.
*Send and receive e-mails using my phone.
*Use Gizmo and IM+ to stay connected via Yahoo! and MSN. That's about 4 hours a day.
*Surf the internet using the phone directly, and also use it sometimes as a modem.
*Use the phone as a notepad.
*From monday to friday my talking time is about 2 hours a day.

In a few words i keep the phone in my hand up and running from 7.30a.m. to 9 p.m. in heavy use.

I appreciate all the pros i wrote. I also own an N95 (RM-159), and previously owned an N73, and this phone takes abuse better than them.
