Nokia did a refresh of their year-old E51 candybar business phone and announced the Nokia E52 today without much fanfare.
A lot was was improved from the previous model and the upgrades I think are well worth it.
Nokia E52
2.4 inches screen (240x 320 pixels)
3G/HSDPA up to 10.2Mbps (HSUPA, 2Mbps)
WiFi 802.11 b/g
3.2MP fixed-focus camera with flash (2048×1536 pixels)
Front-facing camera for video calls
ARM 11 600MHz processor
Stereo FM with RDS
Bluetooth 2.0
60MB internal memory (up 16GB on microSD)
GPS with A-GPS support and Nokia Maps 3.0
This phone is much thinner at 9.9mm (as slim as the Nokia 5310 while the E51 is 12mm) and still gets a 3.5mm audio jack. Has a 1500mAh battery that can last 8 hours on a phone call and 6 hours on 3G. What is most intruiging is that it’s powered by a 600MHz ARM 11 CPU, almost twice as fast as the latest Nokia 5800.
Suggested retail price – $326 (~Php15k) but could go down to the same price as the E51 (Php12-13k) when it first came out.

I am using E51 currently and personally I say that the features are good. Not much intriguing for me (speed) cause my E51 not as slow as N70.
WHOAAA…. ANYONE CARES TO GAVE ME THIS ONE FOR MY BIRHTDAY!!
abel, do you have any idea when it’s coming to rp?
Usually, around 3 months after it is announced.
Nokia got it right in E51, I guess they are cashing on it again. I’ve been using E51 for months and it been a solid performer, some of the gripes are poor camera, no front camera and poor battery life. Looking at e52’s specs, it seems they responded to the complaints. But i’m not in a hurry to upgrade my e51, it still does the work.
e51 finally got a refresh since its announcement 20 months ago.
impressive cpu, but poor internal memory (60mb only) vs (old) E51′S 130MB.
hey nokia, whats the rationale behind this?
as for e52 black-colored phone, it seems it come out late in the second wave pa(as per trending).
the specs of e52 in GPU and SOUND categories were silent. i guess its really the specialty of n-series line.
ot: there hasnt been a true n82 refresh yet. hoping for this one to come out soon with latest s60 9.4 OS (and wishing it would have the e51’s keypad -best ever?). i just love monoblocks. hehe.
need a new phone. hope I can afford this.
Yuga, it should be “fanfare.”
for 15K siguro..meron ng mas magandang phone na mabibili dyan..
not good ..iniexpect q na slide phone sya pero classic phone pala sya..so disapointed
Sang mall meron ng nokia e52?
is this out in philippine markets already?
tama ba to? e51 cost P10,200 eh 20 months ago pa tong model.
wow..seems really nice, super thanks to ate for it’s coming my way..
