The Nokia E5 furthers Nokia’s style of creating smartphone devices not only for business owners, but also for a less professional user, interested in multimedia. The E5 brings the useful feature of switching among 2 different home screens (Personal/Business) that first appeared with Nokia E72 phone. This Nokia E5 review will give you the details.

The E5 has a great chassis. The back is of aluminum, and the rest is made of a hard plastic that is glossy, yet does not catch fingerprints.

The front area of the Nokia E5 is divided between the 2.36 inch screen, and the device’s QWERTY keyboard. There are some very useful shortcuts on the E5’s keyboard, like a bluetooth on/off function, mute, and a one-key flashlight function, with the help of the E5’s LED flash.

Under the hood there are Wi-Fi, HSDPA and A-GPS, a 5-MP camera that has a powerful LED flash, and plenty of software, under Symbian v3. Ovi Contacts, Ovi Chat are available right out of the box. This is also the case for MySpace, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Quickoffice, Ovi Sync, and Ovi Files.

The E5 has great Facebook integration, since you have the possibility to link Facebook friends to contacts from your SIM. You might also match other added contacts, with their specific Facebook pages.

A neat feature characterizing the Nokia E5 is the great music sound. A large selection of file types can be handled Mp3, WMA and others and while the sound quality is fine using default headphones, it becomes sublime if you upgrade them.

The E5 battery – 1200 mAh sustains more than 12 hrs talk time, and more than 38 hours continuous music time while used for playing mp3 music.

All things considered the E5’s full QWERTY keyboard and great sound quality is what makes the Nokia E5 a tempting offer, with some disadvantages of the product being a camera with less features, a less than ideal screen resolution, and the web browser being somewhat buggy. We trust the present Nokia E5 review answered your questions about this phone.
