    The Nokia E51 is a good value-for-money business phone that has all the necessary features and capabilities to meet most business user needs. The phone is ladened with all sorts of decent applications for office work such as an office document viewer and other useful applications. While the E51’s multimedia functions, such as its built-in camera and music player, may not be as good as other more dedicated phones, they so serve their purpose. The most useful feature to...

    The E50 and E60 (last year) were competent devices without really excelling in any way. The E51 rolls in kick-ass styling, a metal chassis, a thinner form factor, S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1, latest media codecs, 3.5G, a better and tweaked key layout and a decent (if not great) camera. It's quite a list, and should be one of Nokia's mainstays, certainly in the business world, going into the period when all Nokia's phone divisions are being merged. I don't think the... Read more

    Simple is good, and that's what the E51 is. It may not have a fancy design, but the E51 excels in nearly all other aspects with a truckload of connectivity features, good performance and attractive price point for an enterprise phone. Read more

    It’s a shame that no US carrier is offering the Nokia E51 as it fills a market segment where smartphone users don’t necessarily want to carry a large E90 or a wide E61. The slim, small and sexy design certainly adds a new look to the Eseries, and turns the smartphone into an attractive device. The many applications and features including an office suite, superb web browser, push email support, strong PIM apps and multimedia tools make the phone a powerful tool, as do ... Read more

  5. Nokia E51 Review

    Reviewer: Softpedia
    28 February 2008

    The only thing that impresses at first glance is the stainless steel material that covers most of the phone. That's because 'slim size' has become a standard for these days' handsets, and E51 cannot stand out from the crowd just because it's slim. Anyway, for a business phone, Nokia E51 really looks stylish and will probably attract more buyers than its Eseries predecessors. Only after actual use, owners will understand what this little piece of technology can really ... Read more

    I've owned a Windows Mobile 5 phone before, and it constantly crashed, locked up, or otherwise glitched. This Symbian OS phone hasn't had a single problem, has been incredibly responsive, and has all the features I could ever want. Easy to use, easy to customize, and a lot for anybody. Read more

  3. Otherwise a good business phone, but undermined by rather short battery life

    I've been using E51 for 5 months, and admire most of its functions, especially T9 and its tactile keypads. E51's T9 word recognition is amazing: it recognize (in Indonesian) colloquial words like: 'nyokap', 'ngapain', and most common names. Using T9 on E51, you can easily beat QWRTY based phone for text speed contest. The S60 (mine vers 200.34.36) never crashed, and it work seamlessly with PC Suite (vers 7.0.7.0). So far so good. Add the VoIP capability, clear handset... Read more

    Simply put, I love this phone. I been using Motorolas for some time now when I had Verizon, though exclusively used Nokia when I had AT&T Wireless Services. Eventually I switched back to Cingular at the time and picked this up on ebay real cheap. I fell in love with it. It works very, very well. Wifi works great, though sometimes it is a bit slow to make a connection. I wish email remembered which connection I used per session so I can read all mailboxes at on... Read more

  5. New Phone Advice...

    I currently own a Treo 650 and was considering buying a Nokia E51... Basically I'm looking for a good phone that can have PAN/DUN features and act as a high speed connection for a laptop. Besides the Nokia E51, does anyone have recommendations to other good phones I should look at? Thanks much!
