Can you please clarify further?

If yours under warranty, get Nokia to do a complete clean installation. Better than self updating.

I have a strong suspicion it is better to take it to the Nokia Care center to do a complete flash and re-install of the firmware instead of doing piecemeal updates yourself. It is similar to doing a complete Window OS re-installation vs constant updating. I based my suspicion on ending up with more phone memory by doing it at NCC vs doing it myself, about 10MB more.

The downside is, you better back up all your data before sending to NCC.

First time starting up Facebook. Phone will just reboot. Anyone else getting this problem?

Firmware 033.003

Most dealer say "no". But the correct answer is "yes".

These smartphone are like computer. Brand new always fast. After using for sometimes and installing application, speed bound to slow down. To regain 'fastness', go to Nokia Care center and do a complete clean reformat/re-install.

In good daylight and no macro shot, the photos is pretty good in fact. Very good.

You have to define what do you mean by "better".

Yes, E72 has better camera because it has autofocus. But E52 is lighter to carry in pocket.

Yes, E72 has QWERTY but they are too small for some people so they opts for the bigger keyed E52.

Have mine past 6 months. Bearing in mind these are basically computer with occasional computer problem, no problem so far as far as hardware is concerned.

There is 1 thing that I still don't get it. For a supposedly smartphone, it does not have a stopwatch function. Even cheapo handphone has that.

I have Skype on my E52. It works fine except the person hearing me got truly poor sound quality with lots and lots of echo. On my receiving end, the sound is perfectly fine. I suspect it is due to the E52 microphone or something to do with the microphone's noise cancelling thing. Anyone got any idea and how to rectify this?

Thanks.
