Observations

It has pretty much the same specs as the Nokia E55 except with a numeric keypad instead of compact-qwerty. The Nokia E55 also has the same battery type and boasts the same 8-hour talk time. Both phones also have noise cancellation. The Nokia E52, however will be cheaper at 245 Euros versus 265 Euros for the Nokia E55. It pretty much all comes down to what input method you like better.

Do either of these phones interest you a bit? Neither are my type.
