The Nokia E72 is the successor to one of the most popular and best selling business-oriented handsets of the manufacturer, the famous E71. It´s better than its predecessor in almost every single respect – camera, processor, memory, controls etc. Ultimately, is it worth the upgrade though? Well, read on and you´ll find out...

The E72 smart phone is a solid update to the E71, offering excellent messaging features, a superb keyboard and sturdy build quality in a slim package. Its screen isn't particularly well-suited to viewing Web pages, but the E72 could still cause a few BlackBerry users to jump ship

Nokia E6 long term review and E72 comparison
3.8

The Nokia E6–00 is currently the only candybar QWERTY device in the latest Symbian line up. Picking up where the E72 left off, the E6 adds a touchscreen and high pixel density display. The E72, just like the E71 before it, was a big hit among Eseries fans. Does the E6 match up to its S60 3rd Edition predecessors? In this review, we take a long-term look at the E6, and discuss whether E72/E71 users should consider an upgrade.

We loved the E71's full QWERTY and business focus. The E72 picks up where the E71 left off, improving upon it in every way possible.
