its good, but it depends on what you value...
seems like with not all upgrades are just that. often they do things that take it a step backwards.
after using the Nokia E51 for several years, I thought to upgrade to the E52 to take advantage of the GPS, LED flash and better battery.
All those things are good, but one of the main reasons to keep using this kind of phone is for the love of the keypad. The E51 has great tactile feedback and travel. Like the original IBM thinkpad keyboards.
The E52 is not so, with its 'cushier' keys, lack of definition and no more 'click' feeling when the keys are pressed.
Perhaps Nokia hired some new kids that are into the less responsive less tactile keyboards to design this phone. Seems like this is the trend now with more laptops too.
Also, important. I made the mistake of not varifiying the 3G band support for my phone and now I have a Euro E51 in America, and I can't use the 3G. This sucks.
Back to using my E51.
