    Summary: The E50 is the cheapest S60 3rd Edition smartphone available at Rs. 13,000. With a very sedate design, a great screen and a good set of software and connectivity options, the phone won me over, but the average camera and battery performance keeps me ...

CNET editors' buying advice

We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Smartphones. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of smartphone.

Bluetooth

Bluetooth allows your mobile phone to wirelessly connect, via low-frequency radio waves, with external devices such as a headset for making calls. Many Bluetooth cell phones also allow you to exchange or sync data with other Bluetooth devices or to connect to stereo headphones to listen to music. For more information see CNET's Quick guide to Bluetooth.

Speakerphone

A speakerphone is useful for hands-free calling when you're driving or multitasking. Consider getting a cell phone with a full-duplex speakerphone, which allows both parties to speak at the same time. Business travelers who need to set up impromptu meetings will want to look at a mobile phone or smartphone that supports conference calling.

Symbian OS

Symbian, an open operating system designed to take advantage of the convergance of PDAs and mobile phones, offers a broad array of personal information management (PIM) features, including contact and calendar management and a robust library of third-party applications. Being open, Symbian is less proprietary in nature than most other operating systems, which allows developers to improve the system much faster than other OSs. Symbian can be found on many Nokia and Sony Ericsson phones, although it is not exclusive to these brands.

Because of its open source nature, each model of smartphone running Symbian may have very different interfaces, so making comparisons between phones can be difficult. However, while ease of use can be subjective as far as hardware goes, Symbian provides an abundance of functionality.
