Nokia E5 or Nokia C5-03 : Which one is better?

Nokia E5 or Nokia C5-03 : Which one to buy? Its a tough question to answer. Nokia E5 has its advantage in its Full QWERTY keyboard, which is a must for some people. On the other hand Nokia C5-03 packs a punch in its 3.2 inches TFT resistive touchscreen, which is sensitive enough. Apart from this difference of QWERTY and TouchScreen, Nokia C5-03 has a more advanced Symbian OS v9.4, Series 60 rel. 5 and has a longer talk time of Up to 11 hours 30 minutes (2G). Both phones have 3G data speed of HSDPA, 10.2 Mbps; HSUPA, 2 Mbps, which is prety good. Both phones carry the same price tag as well, in India. So our conclusion: If you are particular about physical Full QWERTY keyboard, then and then only go for Nokia E5. Otherwise, Nokia C5-03 will be the right pick.
