The bad: Poor camera; keypad is less than ideal for text entry.
The bottom line: It's not the most exciting handset around at the moment, but the Nokia E52 still manages to impress with its long battery life, excellent call quality and useful feature set.

Excellent Business Phone.
Nov 20, 2009Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Not laggy, HSDPA, Good Battery Life, Wi-Fi, Good Music Player
Cons: No cons pertaining to this phone.
Opinion:
Excellent phone invented by Nokia. Good sound quality(Music is loud and clear when you are using your own earpiece). Camera image is good and it has secondary video camera(can take photos with the front camera)-Cool. Web browser support flash. I can view flash movie from youtube and dailymotion which lots of other phone support wifi but can't view flash files from dailymotion. The phone is not laggy at all. User friendly. Support pdf reader and office 2007 reader and writer too. Excellent phone compared to Nokia E63. I recommend this phone to all the people out there. Trust me and you will not regret buying this phone.
I don't even know why I would still give this a 2!

Pros: Fast scrolling, good interface
Cons: Dead within 5 hours
Opinion:
Can you imagine, I bought this phone at noon time, and by the night I found it was dead and can no longer be powered on anymore. Brought it back to the shop in Mine Shopping Fair the next day, and they say it needs to be send back to Mobile Technics for software upgrade.
Reading from various sites, I deduced that this will be more than a software upgrade, most likely will ended up needing to replace the motherboard with new IMEI. Only then I also found out why all the main Nokia Center has stop selling the E52 for 2 weeks, that is because they bringing in the new batch that are supposedly much improve? What makes us that bought this phone before this, Lab Rat per se?
I think I might as well go file a Tribunal Claim on this phone seeing the place I bought from won't give me a 1 to 1 ... Read more
Excellent all-rounder phone with 1 wk battery life
Oct 27, 2009Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: long battery life, all basic features included, got value-add features: pdf reader, office reader
Cons: Nothing major, caller photo function not perfect
Opinion:
I have been using this for 2 wks. Battery life is my priority, and i wasn't disappointed: normal usage+game last me 1 wk. It has all basic and value-add(eg. pdf reader, office reader)features. I don't encountered software prblem probably due to latest firmware. processor also faster than my previous SE G705 when play games. Big buttons good to use. I only have few minor complains:
1. incoming call photo is blocked partially by caller ID, defect the purpose of photo function;
2. sms no caller's photo, unlike my SE;
In general, this is a great phone for people don't want touch screen.
