I had been waiting for the E72 and was wanting to replace my E71 which is my favorite phone to date. I finally had a chance to play around with it in Hong Kong and came away disappointed. The optical d-pad feels worse than the d-pad on the E71 and I thought the newer Symbian seemed clunkier to the Symbian on the E71.
The camera is much better, but the interface is frustrating to work with and I have been a Symbian guy for a long time.
I will probably not buy a Nokia phone in the future.

people always tend to claim and time on time argue about politics and economy all based on the facts obtained from the most respected jouranlists of their land.but what they don’t try to understand that the journalist always only reports what he sees and beyond that no futher research is done and media organisation he works for is owned by some high profile news maker cum news owner.

Got my 72 about a week back at Singapore...The phone is AWESOME!!! agreed back cover is a bit gibberish but its not really such a bother believe me ....but those who are happy with E71 you guys are not missing anything spectacular... E71 is the numero uno guys and E72 is an upgraded version of the same.
Amazing Features-
great Batter Life
Excellent keypad
User interface is a bit faster than E71
camrea is much much better
audio quality (music and telephony) Great
Only setback a bit loose battery cover ...but please let this not stop anyone from using The Phone !!!
Nokia Forever ..

Friends, Nokia E71 is loosing its market price every week. But I would say it is very unfair. E71 is a much solid built when compared to E72. E72 without any doubt beats E71 in features and capabilities but the huge price difference between 2 handsets is not justified. E72 has a bad built quality. The materials used on E71 are far superior. Compare the plastic part of E71 with E72,the quality used on E71 is more strong feel. Plastic on E72 feels cheap. E72 has been given brushed metal buttons in the middle of the soft key area and this is a welcome move but apart from that E72 lacks lustre.

> In reply to haseious @ 2009-11-21 16:22 from 2FB$About your comment E72 being more metal built, I would say to you hold E71 in one hand and E72 in other. Play with them, I mean click the soft keys and then press the keypad. You will notice that E71 feels much sturdier. If not than my E72 has a faulty construction.
Moreover in just 2 days the battery cover has started shaking and twisting rock n roll.
Moreover the side volume keys feel very delicate and feel like will crack in few days. There is a backlight bleeding from behind the soft keys and volume keys. All in All it feels like a shiny expensive toy which will loose its shine and feel cheap in few days.
If anyone have found otherwise please post your experience with this device. I am wondering if I have been handed over a faulty unit. By the way I am from Indonesia and I bought E72 at USD 480.

For anyone with this handset that has an E-71 as well, how can you compare the sound-quality when using a head-set? I am an E-71 user and I find the quality to be only fair if not sub-par to what I would like. I understand by all means to get a great sound processing handset I should be looking towards the Nseries etc.. however the full QWERTY KB, solid build quality and business functionality of the Eseries is primary to me over this.

ok, everyone's subject to their own opinion about this phone, but i personally don't think the phone looks cheap at all. specifically i don't understand why some people label it as "plasticky" when in fact, it has more metallic components to it compared to the E71 - the brushed metal surface of the soft-keys below the display, the metal rings that surround the d-pad, shortcut keys, the earpiece, the power switch, and the volume toggles are ALL metal, not to mention the chrome frame. don't get me wrong, as no phone is perfect, but for people who find it "cheap" looking, didn't you get to play with a dummy / look at it at a counter / test and hold it before you bought it?
oh and the optical navigation pad is naturally a little wobbly, as it is a key after all, like all the other ones on the phone. it's pretty much common sense, guys - if it's glued solid onto the phone, how on earth are we going to press it?

Finally I bought d phone just today cost USD485 in Jakarta..but I honestly I dont like the handset..its Not well made. The plastick is so cheap,even the D-Pad and softkeys are hard to press made my thumb hurts.. the E71 is much more comfortable to use. But software is okay..camera is awesome, average sound quality

an accelerometer is on board, but as far as i know, it is called "turning control" and is only relevant for silencing calls and snoozing alarms. haven't tried any games yet, so not sure about the utilization of the accelerometer in that department...

oh, and to address the concern about the E72's seemingly more "delicate" construction - it is absolutely bollocks. the E72 is very solidly built and it only feels "delicate" in your hands because it feels classier and much more precious. in other words, that judgment is, for the most part, psychological.

the camera seems to be a HUGE upgrade over its predecessor, the E71. it is lightning fast to activate and take pictures (i dare say that the image quality is on par with most n-series phones, which is unsurpassed by previous E-series phones), and the flash (which can be doubled as a torch) is quite strong as well. overall, a holy-grail miracle-doer which combines the best of the N-series' and E-series' worlds.
