I hear the 5530 has pretty poor battery life, but it's rectified with the 5320.

Anyways, this looks promising (to me anyways), if it's priced low enough. Any estimated prices? If you convert that figure (non-Comes With Music version) directly, it'd be RM 760, but I expect it to be at least RM800+ when it's finally out here.

I hear it'll retail in India at like 10,000 Rs. That's like RM 727, but I'm probably just being too optimistic.

Well, when it was released it was pretty similar at about 279 Euros, so I guess I can still be optimistic about the 5230, lololololol

Hopefully it won't have any retarded wobbly/rattly parts like the 5530.

GSMArena's finally released a 5230 review. Seems to be pretty favourable, despite the budget sales package.

Not to mention, for some reason its 2 MP shooter records videos at 640 x 480 at 30 fps. Pretty awesome for that price.

Are you sure about the 5235 having WiFi?

If I recall correctly, the only things it's got going is the Comes With Music service and a shiny chrome rim.

Anyone know what the difference is between the 5230 and the 5233? http://www.nokia.com.my/find-product/all-p.../specifications

The 5233 seems to be selling at a lower price for some reason.

Yeah, strange thing is, vendors are selling both and I think both are appearing on Nokia Malaysia's site.
