Review endurance varies with use; not video playback. | Removable BP-5L 1500 mAh; exact guide's battery chapter calls it Li-Polymer, while its accessory list says Li-Ion. Maker claims up to 5.5 hours GSM talk and 14 days idle; launch release says approximately five hours. Review tests use different conditions, not video playback. |
| Wired charging | Charges through micro-USB, including a compatible USB data cable; exact guide says cable charging is slower and a USB hub may not work. No charging wattage inferred. | Separate battery charger connector; AC-4 travel charger and DC-4 mobile charger in the exact guide. No charging wattage inferred. |

| Weight | 98 g (better) | 144 g |
| Thickness | 9.9 mm (better) | 16.2 mm |
| Height × width | 116 × 49 mm | 116.5 × 69.9 mm |
| Weight detail | Maker datasheet gives 98 g and 116 × 49 × 9.9 mm; no different configuration or hardware borrowed from E55 | 144 g with battery and 116.5 × 69.9 × 13.9–16.2 mm in the exact maker technical table; headline thickness uses its upper bound. Secondary database's rounded 117 × 69.7 × 14 mm is not substituted. |

| Software at launch | Symbian OS 9.3, S60 Third Edition Feature Pack 2 in GSMArena's exact production review | Symbian 9.1a with S60 Third Edition, release 3.0 in the exact guide |
| Software features | Maker datasheet lists Quickoffice editors, mobile VPN and business/personal email. Both production reviews test supplied editing; owner guide qualifies editing as requiring the editor version. Early firmware/service differences retained, with no claim that historical online services still operate. | Maker launch and exact guide support creating/editing documents, spreadsheets and presentations, PDF viewing, HTML/WAP browsing, email, instant messaging, VPN and synchronisation. Guide/launch carrier services may no longer operate; not a promise of present network support. |
| Release detail | Nokia announced E52 on 6 May 2009 and planned second-half2009 availability. Maker's 2009 sustainability report lists it among products launched that year, and August production reviews establish retail units. Earliest maker-supported on-sale month unresolved, so year precision retained. No E51 predecessor link inferred from secondary descriptions. | Announced by Nokia/Cingular on 12 September 2006 with US retail planned for 29 September; contemporaneous actual-sale coverage confirms Cingular shipping that day. Month precision retained because an earlier worldwide first-sale day is unresolved. Separate regional E61-related hardware, not an inferred successor. |
| Connectivity | ||
| Mobile network | Quad-band GSM/EGSM 850/900/1800/1900; regional WCDMA 850/2100 or 900/2100 variants, not one four-band 3G radio. HSDPA up to 10.2 Mbps, HSUPA up to 2 Mbps. | Quad-band EGSM 850/900/1800/1900; EGPRS/GPRS/HSCSD/CSD in the exact owner guide. No UMTS, HSDPA or other 3G radio. |
