Hi,

Have been using the E1 for about two weeks now and I my thoughts on it (as compared to the n95) are as follows:

Advantages:

1. Very very fast, the new processor and memory has made this phone really fast in all respects, whether in internet browsing or opening documents or using the programs.

2. Battery is very very good and lasts me about two days with about 1.5 hours of calls, 30 mins of WLAN surfing, 30 mins of mail on Edge and 1 hour of games per day

3. Looks absolutly stunning

4. Shortcut keys are great and almost all the daily used features can be accessed from the main screen, if setup properly

5. Email setup is very very easy like all new nokia phones

6. screen legibilty is good like all new nokia phones

7. Call quality and speakerphone quality is very good, no call drops till date

8 Allows you to bring up names from the home screen, without going into your phone book, with various options like messaging, phone etc.

Disadvantages:

1. Themes are not very nice, and looks like something that was introduced in 2001, but i guess this can be changed with more downloadble themes being available on various sites now

2. Camera is not great at all, and would have preferred something better

3. Keys are a bit small, and takes getting used to

4. Finding software for the new screen size is a bit tough, but not impossible.

Thats my honest feedback on this phone. Overall a great phone and one for power users. I have not faced any abrupt hangs or freezes like I used to on my N95.
