Hello guys,

I have a Satio at the moment but I'm thinking of swapping it for a Nokia E72 (selling the Satio and buying the E72 of course). I'm loving everything on Satio except its size. I'm finding it a lil bit bulky, which I dislike, and I really like the querty keypad in the E72. The only thing that is holding me back is the Photo album separation in the Satio (as in all SE's). I enjoy having all my photos separeted by the months it were taken. Is possible to add that in the E72 (with some crazy multimedia application pherhaps)? Of course I would miss the giant screen and the 12mp camera with xenon but the build quality, design and sleek size got me here... And, for what I have seen, E72's 5MP camera isn't bad at all (with proper light condiitons of course)...

What do you think? Would you exchange it?

Wouldn't you rather get a Vivaz Pro and have best of both worlds?
Otherwise i wouldnt swap, keep the Satio IMO.
The E72's built-in File Manager will seperate pics taken by Month.

Keep your Satio. You seem to be focused on photos. Viewing 5 MP photos on a QVGA screen will be a huge disappointment for you. Plus the extremely slow zoom function in the photo viewer is a real pain.

I bought the E72 as a replacement for my old E90 but changed my mind and now keep the E72 as a second phone instead. The E72's firmware is not yet mature enough for serious use. Bluetooth that keeps disconnecting for a paired headset. Latest firmware scrapped playing of M4A audio files. The phone also reboots occasionally in the photo viewer.
Not even the early firmware in the P990i was this bad, and I'd rather replace the E90 with my P990i which still is in mint condition.
Go to Nokia's discussions forum and read all the complaints on the E72 before you replace your Satio...

I'm not seduced by Vivaz design and I'm sure it will be as bulky as Satio ;f ... And yeah, I went to a FNAC store to test more carefully the E72 and, surprisingly, it has a separation by month in the gallery of photos! The media isn't, of course, beauty as the SE's but was not bad. I felt that the phone has some slow transitions between menus and stuff dispite its 600mhz processor (had a E71 and it is not as laggy as E72 imo).

But yeah, thanks for your opinions. I'll keep my Satio for a while now.

I tried the E72. It just needs getting used to.Camera is ok. I mostly use my phone for camera, multimedia and net browsing. So I cant swap my satio for an E72.

E72 is lean toward business type of phone it has excellent keyboard and messaging system if you lean toward multimedia then keep your Satio

that's my two cents
