Got my hands on one yesterday.

Points I noticed:

- Great form factor
- Below average feel (joy stick is sticky and on/off button is crappy)
- Extended battery is not available in Bnagalore
- Will go far once nokia fixes the s/w bugs

- One addition that would make this phone a killer is stylus input (obiously with a bigger screen) . Why cant nokia make a phone that will also replace the little note book I carry in my pocket to jot down things.

answer to a previous query:
1. this phone does have a to-do list. you can set them from calendar
2. The voice button is located in the right edge of the phone. it's the first(top) button on the right edge of the phone when it is facing you.

Does anyone knows how can I turn off the camera shutter sound ? thx for responds.

Good design, light and very thin for a Nokia.
Camera is avarage. Phone works faster than I expected. Big screen.

But just for men.
Looks so macho .)

just because yours does not last more than 2 days does not mean we are all having the same problem.
go and exchange yours. my battery works fine.
as for picture caller ID there is a program called Full Screen Caller ID that give you a fullscreen ID when someone calls provided you assign a pic to your contact. works great for me.

DO NOT GET THIS PHONE!!! I have to charge every day/2 days with no Bluetooth, no E-Mail, no Web Browsing. You will get nowhere near the advertsied 6 1/2 hours of talk time. 45 minutes if you're lucky. A phone which has a battery that doesn't allow you to make phone calls is worthless. REPEAT - DO NOT GET THIS PHONE!!

E50 the last of non N series is piculiar n faults,speaker turns on without press ad Fonts r tooo tiny to read,this aspect is so balatant where were the ThinkTanks when the tested or manufactured it.
Batt life is very average,why cant they invent what old models 3310 had.
Nokia must consider this forum The Best to Get Users response BUT they r arrogant======

I have to charge my E50 battery every 48 hours (2 days) even with very light use, is this normal? I thought the battery life is good.......I disagree

Does this phone support photo caller id? But the real photo caller id, over the entire width of the screen, not just the tiny non legible thumbnail! It is a very important feature of the phone for me, because I have to put the glasses on when someone calls me... I am used to this feature with cheap Siemens phones (like C65), and other models of the same brand.

I had an E61 good but bulky, then I exchanged it for the E50 and became happier since then. exceot for the liitle delay opening the contacts or the menu but its an AWSOME phone that will please any one looking for every thing but phone quality is on the list top. The one I got here in Vietnam is hand brought from China and I am looking to change the firmware to the middle east or euro English but the new firmware updater doesn't exchange only update so I have to wait. officially this phone is yet to be released in Vietnam. at last, I hope there will be a new firmware release to increase the speed of opening the applications.
