> Where is SE version of Nokia E55?
Bookmark topic
E55 is not yet released, everything is speculative right now.
Not being a touch screen phone is a big let down though. Im a P1i user and also a N82 user at the same time, i dont think i would be replacing any of my current phones for E55.

Looking at the main features of the E55, the closest would be the P1i which was conceived long before 900MHz UMTS became available.
As far as 900/2100Mhz, 3.2Mp+, wifi capable phones SE have these models available/coming soon:
W705
W715
W995
Xperia X1
and probably the Idou?
So SE have the technology but haven't decided to compete in that market yet. Considering that Nokia have a plethora of smartphones and SE do one-at-a-time (P800 > P900 > P910 > P990 > P1i > Xperia X1) it's not really surprising to find the current situation.
SE have signaled that they intend to release more smartphones but whether these will be business orientated remains to be seen. They're spreading themselves across three platforms (WM, SF/S60, and Android) so I would expect them to have at least 3 smartphones at a time, and probably about 6-8 considering that Xperia is supposed to be a sub brand and that the Symbian Foundation/S60 platform will make a good basis for iPhone style multimedia phones such as Idou. Who knows where Android will go? Maybe not much further than the US?
Anyway, SE could produce an E55 but Nokia have probably saturated a depressed market already so it's not worth it ATM.

Basically the same target market. Come on GUCCI, admit it, the P1i is not all that bad
The P1 is an excellent phone! I would dearly love for SE to replace it with a slim version with HSDPA 7.2 , better video recording, 5mp A/F camera, 2.8'' screen and (obviously) SF OS. I would buy that in a second!
Unfortunately, a few people say that design is dead even though nothing comes from SE.

To make such a phone they need to hire sober designers first. You know, the hip geeky types that we all are.
