Nokia E51

I also hear a creaking noise when I press the record button on my E51. It is the only creaking thing on my phone. To answer to ksuuk, I am also using a 6120 classic, and I find it quite alright, especially since it allows me to use the video call minutes included in my monthly subscription. The E51 is a better phone on the overall, due to longer battery life, better materials, and WiFi. However, each phone has its advantages and disadvantages.

Well, as it made from plastic, it sure make creaking noise, and sad that Nokia didn't made from the scratch new phone (like E50), but they remade the ordinary low level phone (6120) and added some (metallic)extras and named it business phone.

I should add that it appears from the forum discussions that most E51's don't creak at all, but that many do.

"I bought my phone in US and everything is fine, except the creaky sound when I press the side buttons like volume and record. This weird sound comes from the plastic. Can someone confirm that it is OK?"

There've been extensive discussions in HoFo about creaks on the left side of the front (in the 1, 4, 7, and Calendar keys, for example), but I haven't seen any reports of creaks in the right side keys like you describe. My E51 does not creak on the right side (volume buttons), but it creaks along the left side of the front -- it's annoying, but I haven't seen any degradation in usage.

I tried out two E51 display phones in the NYC Nokia store, and they creaked, too, so I have kept my original E51.

On my Nokia E51, Opera 8.65 is working just fine! Nop probs whatsoever.

Tell us, how did You do that, as seems You are the only one, all others, including me can't use it, E51 runs firmware 100.34.20 and Opera Mobile is useless, cant use D-Pad, can't select etc, read the thread - http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=213348

There is also Opera -s official answer - "We have received reports about Opera Mobile for Series 60 not being compatible with some newer devices from Nokia. Unfortunately this can only be resolved by an updated version of Opera Mobile. Unfortunately I can not tell you anything regarding scheduled updates of Opera Mobile."
