I have the 3GS for awhile and recently the X6 for about a week...
1st impressions are that Nokia just cannot touch Apple for OS smoothness...
X6 just feels like a sleeker version of the 5800 due to the capacitive touchscreen, I have had the 5800 for about half a year, I can tell the difference. The X6 also has kinetic scrolling which was something only available to iPhone or the Android phones. But with the recent launch of firmware V 40.0.005 for the 5800 that kinda levels it for the X6.
My biggest gripe is the lack of RAM in the X6, 128MB only, same with the 5800. For example, if I play music, surf the net and open the music store at the same time the unit will say insufficient memory... big boo boo especially after what the Nokia rep told me that the X6 is a true multitasking smartphone unlike the iPhone. Give me smooth running mono tasking phones any day!
The comes with music service is a great concept, only if it wasn't so heavily DRMed! You can only play downloaded music on ONE phone and ONE PC!!!
That sucks sour frog ass! So much for sharing tunes... still, u can find a whole lot of great music there, but only expect to find clean Radio friendly versions if u know what I mean.
Still it is miles better than that bimbit.com free 1000 songs crapfest!
The free headphones are a big help for the X6's music capabilities as the shit earphones that came with the 5800 are the worst I have ever seen for a music phone.
The apps available for the S60 touch are rudimentary at best and let's not even talk about the Java games that look like Microgenius knockoffs.
This is where the iPhone totally pwns the X6... the Apple app store is something Nokia will try to beat but will probably never succeed...
I know I sound like an Apple fanboy and u will probably say that since I spent so much on the iPhone I will sing its praises but for the record, both devices are gratis for me, and therefore I am able to give an objective opinion on them... Even if I had to choose to buy one of them with my cold hard cash, I know which one I would spend my money on and it's not the one with the bigger box.
cool review bro...haha...1st impressions are that Nokia just cannot touch Apple for OS smoothness...

x6 is definitely not an intimidating phone in my opinion.
2k++ for a 464mhz phone.. lol
