 Nice phoneAug 23, 2010
I bought my phone two months ago it was working fine but know is just not working, my phone is off when I turn on my phone just appear a whole white screen it supposed to have a full warranty, I need to know what the seller is going to do, and I need to know right now.
 Great busniess phoneAug 20, 2010
I was skeptical about getting this phone over the E71. All the reviews attacked this phone as not worth it. Well I sadly don't have a E71 my jump was from the N79 to this Business phone. My decision was based on the 100 Dollar difference against the Same OS I was using, Symbian S60 3rd FP2 and the 5 MP Camera. I could successfully upgrade most of my N79 apps into E72.
Software:
The huge upgrade aside of the business orientation model is the stability.
I have found myself listening music, playing Snes on a Symbian emulator, with facebook and twitter apps on, my opera browser, chats (whatsapp), etc, abruptly interrupted by the "email notification". All I have to do is go to my Home screen with "end conversation button" (or email button that I haven't get used to yet) look for the new email, reply it and go back to my game or any other program I require.
I like installing all type of stuff I found on the web. Pretty much everything runs. I have more problems with the screen orientation 320X240 than the actual phone managing the application. I have opened heavy PDF that my N79 would either crash or take fore ever to open.
The OVI MAPS on this device is way faster, way more clear and with more options such as own voice, and street names. This one is amazing because streets names change in this city every corner. You don't take too much attention to the phone "visual" directions since it tells you the next turn is at "Coyoacan Ave" etc.
Hardware:
The hardware is fine, not the best I have seen, my N79 was made in Mexico and felt solid. This one is made in China, still it's just different design. The power on Button is "loose" it feels like it will fall off, although haven't. The little connector (miniUSB) is covered by a thin plastic thing that I have never like it. I treat my phones really well but I don't know if it can handle a not so careful user. People complain about the sensor Navi key, I totally agree. I dislike it. Its ok for browsing in the web, but for moving around in the menu, well I just turn it off, problem solved.
I don't regret getting this phone, It fits me for all my needs so fat. I have had this for a month now, it still has a lot to go.

 Great phone....when it works.Aug 15, 2010
I've had this U.S. version of the E72 for a couple of weeks, and for a while it performed superbly. Fast navigation, clunky UI but manageable, good sounding music player and nifty Internet Radio app.
Until the freezes, crashes and 'out of memory' error messages started.
The phone will hang and freeze for no particular reason: while sending a text message, browsing a photo gallery, opening the web browser, even worse, while navigating Nokia's own Ovi store. The experience is similar to using an old, buggy version of Windows, without the virus protection. Yeah, that bad.
The *concept* of this phone is great; the actual execution is a train-wreck. One of the most unstable phones I've ever used.
Wow, what's happened to Nokia? First the N97 disaster, now this? This is getting shipped back.

pricey compared to E71Jul 22, 2010
570$ vs 230$ as of today (July 2010)
~300$ difference
Go with E71 - won't loose much but will keep 300$ in your pocket

 Notes from a new Nokia user (Win experienced)Jul 16, 2010
I've been using Windows Mobile with an HTC unit for a while and I decided to give this phone a try (I was also tired of the many issues that Win Mobile has, and the many OS re-installations I had to go through with my old phone to get a nice & stable version).
My first impressions with this phone: out of the box it looks very nice, very attractive and elegant look, similar to a Blackberry. It comes pre-charged but I immediately plugged it in to the wall just in case. It looked to me that it doesn't take much time for the battery to get full charge now that I've been using it for like a month, it is really fast when connected to a wall charger. It comes with a nice Nokia pouch. The USB cable is pretty small (about the length of a pen) which is not very useful. Also, don't believe what Amazon says about what's in the box. It says it comes with a Nokia navigation kit, which I didn't get. Bad for Amazon.
On to the review of key features:
** Connectivy: no issues on an international 850MHz 3G network (I live in Costa Rica). I've tested GSM as well with no issues. Push email working fine with work email accounts and personal ones. However, one day my personal inboxes just dissapeared without a reason so I had to reconfigure them. Very strange. Yahoo email will never work.
** GPS: I haven't used it much but I do have Garmin Mobile XT installed with no issues. It takes a while to find satellites but I guess this is normal in smartphones.
** Keys: Some users are right. It's kinda hard to text using just one hand to hold the phone at the same time. Keys might be too small for people with big fingers.
** OS: not very stable. Whenever I want to switch personal and business profiles it hangs and I have to restart the phone. Sometimes it reboots itself out of nowhere.
** Camera: very nice, pictures are really decent, as expected for a 5M camera. However, there's no way to turn off the shutter sound or the flash. Front camera comes with much less resolution. For those who want a very clear and sharp image for video calls, you will not get it with this phone. Video works really well but again it is very noticeable by others if you're recording a video (there's a sound to start/stop the camera which can't be turned off and a red light in the back of the phone).
** Bluetooth: I use Bluetooth with my laptop at work all the time in parallel with my bluetooth headset, so it works real nice.
** Power: I don't have to charge this phone every night like my old HTC!! It takes 3 full days for my battery to need a recharge and I use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and calls regularly through the day. This is a very nice feature in this unit.
** Wi-Fi: hard to drop a connection so far. Very stable and fast.
** Applications: they do the necessary job. There are some very useful apps in the Ovi store. PC applications to use with the phone are easy to use.
In general I'm not completely satisfied with my purchase, but I do like the phone, that's why I rate it 4 stars. I mean probably sometime in the future I'll switch to a better unit, unless Nokia releases a new Symbian version with many of its bugs fixed, but this is one of the best mobile phones I've owned.
