Nokia 5800 XpressMusic


 


 



 


Although the 5800 was expected to arrive on our shores by mid-December, for some reason the actual arrival has been delayed to early this year.



Nevertheless, the 5800 is definitely one of those phones which you wouldn't mind waiting for. Popularly known as the 'Tube', the 5800 is the first S60 touch screen device. The touch screen isn't just some QVGA unit but a 3.2" large 360 x 640 pixel display.


 


The 5800 runs on the new S60 5th Edition. It has a 369 MHz processor, 128 MB of RAM and 81 MB of built-in memory (which can be further expanded with microSDHC cards). The phone also has a 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, auto-focus and dual LED flash and can record videos in VGA resolution at 30 FPS. It also has an accelerometer and a proximity sensor, along with Bluetooth, Wi-fi and A-GPS. The phone comes with an 8 GB microSD card in the package.


 


Overall the 5800 XpressMusic is an excellent phone and a very good alternative to the iPhones and the Omnias.

I believe the i7110 and the N79 have got nothing in common other than their features- for some reason samsung has decided to price it as a premium phone, thus placing the i7110 closer to the Omnia and the N96 than the N79. This is the most expensive candybar cameraphone IMO.

Motorola AURA truly Motorola. i am in love with this handset but this is a luxury handset not for masses, its for classes and thats what i like most about it. By the way Chinese manufacturers already started manufacturing duplicate of it. So Beware from Motorola Aura Fakes !!
