Summary: 5-star for what it supposed to be
Comment: I was looking for a good cell phone, PDA(calendar, notes, voice memo), music player, communication(wi-fi, bluetooth, web, modem, sync), and the priority is in that exact order. For that and this price point, this phone is great, 5-star.

I got this phone in May, and I put in a Sandisk 4Gb microSDHC card that's good for now. I saw report that it'd take a 16Gb if I need that later.

Pros:
-Good size, quality built, very well designed, good battery life.
-Very good phone. Call quality very good with the factory headset. Slightly worse with a Plantronic 815 bluetooth headset (still good).
-Good function in calendar, meeting, reminder, alarm etc. I also recorded hour long voice memo in meeting no problem.
-Music player is good both function and sound. Radio is a bonus plus. On full charge, I played music 10 hours straight with headset. Speaker good for both phone and music (won't compare it to full size boom box).
-Bluetooth, wifi, sync, web all function properly.
-Control keys are very good. A lot of customization can be done. When set up properly, very convient.
-Predictive texting is very good. I don't write full length email with it so it's just right for me. Good for any basic use.
-Lots of additional features are just welcome bonus for me. (camera, video, gps, voice command, games, application download, music ringtone, VOIP etc etc)

Cons:
-Small screen. 2.2 or 2.4 inch and larger letters would be better. (I think the length of it is just right and can be a little bit wider)
-If it comes with the new WH-700 stereo headset instead that'd be cool.
-camera is so so.

This phone is really good for what it is. If I want more texting or web/media viewing comfort, I'd probably go with the nokia E90 or HTC Touch Pro or Advantage x7500. And if I want to really use it as a computer I would consider the Azus Eee ultra portable... as of today that is. With the upcoming models, we'd keep changing the way we use these devices.

Hope it helps. When I research products, I found it very helpful from some of the reviews. This's a great feature on the web and I hope that I'm doing my part contributing to it.

cheers.

By the way, I use t-mobile. And as others reviewed, it looks cool and the operating system is stable and fast.

Summary: You never go wrong with Symbian OS
Comment: First of all, Symbian OS is very stable and user friendly. Phone is super fast, and after installing 100s of applications it is still fast. Phone is great for both your business and for your entertainment. Its Exchange email support is great, and you can also use your phone with blackberry servers. Office support, PDF reader, ZIP support, and blue tooth printer support is just what you need for your business. Phone comes with Flash player, RealPlayer and Music player. You can even watch your favorite youtube videos.

This phone doesn't have full keyboard nor GPS receiver. If you need full keyboard you should go with e61, or e62. If you need GPS so desperately then E series is not for you. You should consider buying N series phone. I hate people who rates this phone 1 just because they say phone doesn't have qwerty keyboard. it is in the specs, this phone has no qwerty keyboard nor gps.

This phone is not supported by AT&T. In my case 3G is not working. I know there are some people who can use their e51 with AT&T 3G but it is very spotty and most of the times you only get edge. me on the other hand never seen my phone working with 3G.

Summary: Nokia E51 Black Steel Smartphone (Unlocked, U.S. Version) Full Warranty
Comment: The E51 is a great business phone with seamless PC integration to MS Office and Lotus Notes. This 3G smartphone includes the ability to place VoiP calls over WLAN which means you should never be out of touch. The E51 packs a lot of capabilities into a small candy-bar form factor topped off with a clear display, precise key pad and great battery life.

Summary: You don't need more, buy the E51
Comment: Pros: easy to use, good call quality (T-Mobile), great applications like Fring to allow the phone to use Skype over the WLAN.

Summary: Nokia E51
Comment: I love this phone! It is not too small or too big. It has several office applications that I like, I sent my work schedule to it. I also really like how the profiles can be set so they only allow certain users to get through. I won't have to get a new phone for a long time now.
