Metal? Where is the metal?
Everything but the battery cover, seems to be cheap painted plastic, similar to E52/55.

Quite a few people complained about signal drops on the E71. Removing the bottom metal antenna cover should help with that. Also, painted metal plastic? The front of the E71 (that aforementioned antenna cover) was also painted plastic (and it chipped easily). The Bezel is still all metal, so is the back cover. They were always thin, this is a 10mm thick phone! This complaints are insane. The E72 is different, maybe "softer" looking as GSMArena claimed in their review, but this is still a well built and solid phone. I've had one in my hand and I honestly feel the quality is the same between this and my E71. I've been tempted to upgrade, but honestly I'm going to wait for the price drops in a few months. Right now my E71 is still completely great to me, and the E72 isn't going to be outdated in Feb for a nice chunk of change off the current retail price.

Something is wrong here. The E55 review gave it excellent mark and this review gives an excellent review to E72, but the build quality of those two is a huge downgrade to the build quality of their predecessors - E71 and E51. Thin and flimsy backcovers, E55 battery extremely difficult to remove, E55 "metal" frame is actually made of plastic, E72 has less metal parts compared to E71, Volume buttons are made of cheap metal-looking plastic. Okay software of the new devices is better, but the renowned quality and feel of the E-class series is G O N E!

I presentlky am using an E66, previous to that was an E90 and your nod to the fine build quality is a bit off base as you havent used the phone long enough to know.On both of my E series the naviagation toggle chrome finis wore off within a month of normal use, the E90 (which in my opinion was Nokia's best venture into the business phone market) lasted all of 13 months before it packed it in. When sent to Nokia for repairs, the reply was "Unrepairable." not a good ROI for that unit and since then other users of the E90 have had the same issue as me (RX, fine TX gone!)so you are saying fgood build quality, lets wait and see. As to a form factor, Nokia should have updated the E90 as so many other manufactors have taken that form fctor and made some very interesting phones.

i think we should be able to laugh off all our arguments.
the E72 is HERE, and we're STILL in unrest?
whether you take it or leave it, love it or hate it, just be CIVIL.

erm, is it just me or is it impossible to find the messaging "input settings" option? i've tried looking for it everywhere, but it seems to be elusive...

mediocre sound quality mentioned referes to the speaker... for hands free calls, etc. No one listens to good music on the speaker so that is not important. But you can use the e72 as a stand alone headphone player like an iphone.

Got mine after waiting since June and the wait was worth it. Great build quality, specs and even firmware stability is decent.

Bought one 4 days ago and has been used extensively after hacked. I've used Symbian for over 5 years now but this is definitely nokia's best masterpiece to date. Ugly perhaps, but outstanding.

what's so special about this E72 which will make people buy or upgrade to this phone, especially if you have been using something like E71 or E75 in the past? It's a fact that people look to E-series as a phone which could be used as a business purposes but times are changing.
Will we ever see a Nokia E-series running on a windows mobile platform, or android to say the least. That would be fantastic... isn't it?

@ david if you need camera and music player and full touch screen go for omnia hd. This is a qwerty phone, so for qwerty lovers, their main concern to buy a phone is the qwerty keyboard itself. Camera, music player, built quality, and bigger screen is a bonus

The video has been the small letdown for me but cant have the lot..it still does well to capture a one off event ..Else the rest of E72 is full marks..
@ Dave below i know what you mean,,the e72 does not come with n-gage games or touchscreen then in come the critics branding it a poor fone and thats bad for other buyers cause it makes it sound like the whole fones bad..There are many mobiles because folk want different things so just cause something does not suit you while rubbish it??
To person about audio quality,,lets say we have a + and - out of the amplifier to a transducer of different kinds,,what gsm are saying is the loudspeaker transducer is poor quality BUT that same output then goes to the headfones with high quality transducer and its right next to your eardrum producing excellent sound..Some early speakers and they may be still used were piezo eletric types which are fine for them high tones like monophonic bleeps but nowt much else..
