e51 vs C902

[poffle]

Hey hey

Im going onto the top up 315 contract with vodacom but im in bit of a dillema. Im not sure which phone to get, i tried searching the forum for e51 opinions but there are no threads. What are your guys operational opinions between these phones. Im leaning heavily towards to c902 cause its got a nice camera with little touch screen buttons and it looks alot better and features arnt that diff to the e51.

Heres a comparison between the phones : http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone2=2250&idPhone1=2106

The only thing the e51 has is wifi, but i wont really use that so ya. any opinions would be appreciated

Peace

E51
Cellphone camera's are crap (13MP doesn't count for shyte when the lens is the size of a pencil)
The WiFi of the E51 is very handy since there are my open hotspots popping up

Yeah you right on the camera thing.
Still kinda leaning sony erricson

I'd take the E51.
*Tons of applications available for it, can just sit at home on your wifi network and download like mad.
*Nokia E series generally has a fantastic build quality as well.
*Better keypad
*Bigger battery


Having said that the C902 isn't bad eather. I'd take the E51 if it was to be used as a business phone which is used quite a bit but if its a weekend phone get the C902.

Hmm, thanks for the replys, the E51 does sound a bit better but i will not be using it for business at all. I want 3 items on my phone opera mini, ricky ponting cricket and tetris so ya thats all about i'll use it for. Decisions decisions decisions. I think i might just flip a coin

Why not migrate to MTN Anytime? Way better phones for cheaper.

The E51 is the worst phone I've ever owned. I was a real nokia fan until I bought this one. I regret not holding out for the e71. It frustratingly constantly freezes/crashes, and whoever the genius was who put the 'delete' key directly under the navigation buttons should be fired - the number of times I accidentally press it and delete something... I've never owned a SE so I can't really say much about that...

You just answered your question, C902 is clearly best for you.
Sony Ericsson build quality is excellent and everyday functIons like SMS, taking a picture, Opera Mini are much quicker and easier on SE phones.
I've had 4 myself and the only one I ever had trouble with was the infamous P990, all the others were excellent. E51 is just no match for the C902.
