I recently upgraded to the Nokia e50 from a 6230i and have been very impressed so far.
This is my first series60 phone and it has taken a bit of getting used to, but I'm finding it to be very userfriendly.
The Good
- Very smart looking, metal back, nice solid feel - Nice screen, big and high resolution - Camera takes nice photos - User interface is much more configurable - Good battery life - Very nice sound quality - Doesn't seem to fill up with fluff in your pocket - Lets you choose who to send a text to before writing it - no more accidentally sending a text to the person you're slagging off!
The Bad
- New style Nokia charger so can't use the old ones without an adapter lead - Can feel a bit sluggish while loading apps - Found a software bug with the contacts where it puts surname then first name on received texts, so I removed the surnames using the PC suite software and put them into the forename field, displays fine for making calls but puts the surname twice while writing a text, weird! - No wifi internet option - Doesn't come with a memory card in it, however a 1Gb one (micro SD) was only £7 from Play so not too much of a disadvantage! - No automatic keylock included, need to download one - Lock keypad is now top left button - star, rather than top right then star, took me a while to work it out!
I have generally been very pleased with this phone, the only thing that would make it better in my view is to allow it to connect to local wifi access points, on O2 the data allowance for GPRS is far too low to be able to use email regularly on it. Definitely recommended!
