Rep Power: 1 | irst touch mobile from Nokia with a Slim and trendy Look. Called as Nokia Tube. Though it is called as iPhone Killer. Features might over take iPhone but when coming to durability factor , Nokia failed to deliver its usual rough and tough mania. Being XpressMusic Series 5800 comes with a Dedicated audio chip which looses its clarity as the time goes. Speakers and head pieces are much vulnerable to moist climate, Sweating which drastically affect the performance of the Phone but sound no match to Nokia N72 / Korean Mobile Nokia currently adopted a new Carl Lewis Lens which proved that Nokia made a mistake. A 3.5 Meg camera Ok at a day and poor at Night showing color patches in the night light. Even though Cost/ Featuers of Nokia are greater the iPhone Nokia 5800 does not deploy status symbol as iPhone Did. |

| *bump* I have a Q: I have been using a Sonyericsson k750i for 4 years now. I have seen and heard that Nokia phones are very slow (in responsiveness i.e. opening apps, opening messages, contacts etc. as compared to sonyEricsson phones. Is this true for 5800 as well. Please tell me. I am seriously thinking of buying a new phone and 5800 is amongst the ones which I have shortlisted. |

It is sure that the N73 was little bit slow what u mentioned.But 5800 is much faster than N73..Yes some applications u can open unless u double click;which I seems to be very useful.ie; if really want to open only we need to. So also wit PC Suite;I didnt face any problem till date as I'm using 5800 from May 2009 onwards.. The price is also came down to somewhere near to 17K whereas I purchased at 19K+... | |

I am attracted towards 5800 is because of technology and the very good pricing. Also there is no phone in the SE portfolio which is equal in terms of technology and pricing to 5800. | |
