Nokia has a new S60 v5 phone, aiming to cater to those who want to jump to the S60 v5, with less budget...

The 5530 will be price lower than the 5800. Among the things it loses compared to the 5800 is no GPS receiver, HSDPA support and comes with a 4GB microSDHC. The display is also smaller at 2.9 inches. The battery is a 1000MaH unit

Anyone want one already?

For me, I`m rather tempted to get one as a secondary phone. And the phone looks less plasticky compared to the 5800

But remember the HTC Touch Viva at 1.2k, just EDGE also quite a hot model...

Should be like 800-900 when first launch I guess as stated by GSMA will be expected to be 199 Euros

darn e72 dont hav Carl Zeiss but this hav it.. guess nokia is bac to it way of making phone "not giving all the goodies in 1 phone"

Well, remember the Carl Zeiss in the 5800? Which has a very tiny sensor, thus pics in bad lighting sucks...
Hopefully this comes with a larger sensor

LG cookie is selling at RM700+ without 3G.
This phone should not be a lot more than that.

If this is at 700, LG Cookie cannot sell ady brows.gif

This phone, although lacks some features of the 5800, seems more towards the fun side of having a music phone.
It has scrolling contacts, ability to control music through home screen, more versatile home screen, and have more choices of colours and it comes with an IEM(although not that good in quality I'm sure, at least it is showing that this is a music-centric phone). It has the right eye-candy for the target market. Looking at this now, it makes the 5800 look more bussiness like.

Why didn't Nokia do this to the 5800? I mean, it's the flagship in the XpressMusic series. You're right J-Slade, if Nokia doesn't do anything about this soon to us 5800 owners, we'll be greatly pissed.

5800 uses wont be tempted to trade in theri phone for this, but if Nok dont give us the 5530`s home screen, we`ll really be pissed and dissapointed

QUOTE(icechiller555 @ Jun 17 2009, 06:51 PM)
The homescreen and the overall look is the only thing that I like about this phone.  Which I guess is a lot.  But the problem is no 3g and no gps.  They should've made the 5800 xm look like this initially but, for the price of my 5800xm I am not complaining.
*
Agreed. 5530 looks more expensive on the exterior

No more than 1k I'm sure.
Most probably around 900 or under. The touchscreen from LG(i forgot what it was) was around that price and it to had no 3G.

Only a few differences:

1) No 3G
2) Less internal memory (70mb compare to 81mb for 5800)
3) Smaller screen (2.9 compare to 3.2)
but 4) faster ARM 11

I didn't really care about 2), 3) and 4), but lack of 3G is really a let down.

What really amaze me is its wifi feature. If the price is below RM800, I believe it will be a hit. I wonder about its camera performance.

really? I thought its the same proc like the N97 and 5800, just its clocked at 369

Agreed, 5800 is overall better, but the 5530 looks good
