My views
Overall would rate the E-63 as true value for money. Although it does lack resale value you can rest assured that you wouldn’t have to let go of it for ages as it just serves the right purpose. The affordability factor for sure does not compromise on the quality, specifications, durability or design of the phone. For me the phone was certainly love at first sight. The E-63 if compared to the more advanced E-Series smart-phones including E-71 & E-72 is not very different except for a couple of additional functions. I would recommend the E-63 to networking site buffs as well as professionals on the run and need access to important emails at the drop of a hat.
