Nokia E5 vs Blackberry Torch, upgrade choice

[noswal]

My MTN upgrade is available and I have choice of Nokia E5 for R179 or a Blackberry Torch for R369.

Other than price difference what are the user reviews of such.

I primarily use my current E71 as a ....phone, and now and then use email and the web when bored and away from my desktop.

My previous phone was the E71, I upgraded to the BB Torch. IMO it was a good choice. I never used to use the other functions on the E71, but now, Facebook, push email. Cant imagine being without it now. The GPS is much faster at finding locations than the E71 as well.
Only disadvantage so far is the smaller keyboard, but you get used to it.

Do a comparison on GSMArena.com. My money would be on BB Torch but I might be a bit biased seeing as I bought my wife one

Do you really compare these two phones?

The Torch by far.

compare.... perhaps not... but user comments.... a feel ... an impression

The Nokia build quality is far better than RIM's plastic look and feel...

Also if you have a E71 then the E72 is worth a look!!
