apple iphone only one mode, so cannot compare across their own product.
for nokia, depends on generation and phone model. cannot say all symbian-nokia phones are fast.. or all are slow.

nokia smartphones (symbians) have many models.. even within the same e-series they run different processor (ARM11 369mhz, 434mhz or 600Mhz) and the RAM size also different, and available free RAM in the end will differ on the software+applications pre-loaded on the phone.

take for example, N79 and N85 both launched at the same time, similar specs for processor (freescale Mx300), memory (256/128mb) and OS version (v3 FP2), but i find N79 more responsive than N85. the latter symbians are much more responsive now, like e75 which has gone through optimisation of the OS and memory usage.

go and test it out at a nokia shop and compare.. that wat i did.. i actually wanted N85, but then after playing with E75 and N79 at the nokia shop.. my scoring for the speed of responsiveness:

E75 - 10 points
N79 - 8.5 point
N85 - 5.0 points

but generally E series are more responsive than N series, because they don't pack in so many entertainment and media features

most of the website state that e52 launches in July.. depending on if malaysia wants to launch it at that time or later. the pricing shouldn't be higher than E66 and E71 from past experience (comparing E51 with E65 when it was first launched)
