First time here, heard here reccomend very good =) I'm going to buy a new phone ( my old k750i used for 4 years+ ) I don't plan to change phone often so i'm looking for a phone that is long lasting too.

Is nokia 5800 good in terms of

-Touchscreen
-Mp3 and video streaming
-wifi
-3.2 ( abit disadvantage for me )
-reasonable price for a touchscreen phone
-Got GPS? I nid it cuz im direction blind
Is there other phone that resembles the thing i wanted in 5800? If yes please recommend... Nokia/Sony ericsson only.
My budget under 1k ( it's best not to exceed that amount but if a little is fine )

Thanks in advance and nice meeting all of you pros

My most important aspect is touchscreen,camera ( at least 3.2 or more and long lasting ( not alot function but alwiz jam )

too late~5800 oledi die liao~[if u still can find new 5800, then its just pure miracle]

but since ur budget is under 1k
why not consider x6 ? its superior than 5800, so for no doubt, its better, got 5mp carls zeiss AF+Dual led flash
or c6-01, 8mp but no carls zeiss nor autofocus, just fixed focus...
however, it got hd video recording!

nokia got free gps, so called Nokia Ovi Maps, free to use, no worry it data charges or what..

Thanks for your fast reply. Well, since the last few years, 5800 has been my dream phone ( i had to wait for it to drop price only can buy ) but i can consider other phones too that share similarities with 5800. X6 sounds like a great deal, what about it's memory space? I heard it doesn't have a memory card yet have 32gb built in? Yet why some ppl have 8gb or 16 gbs? Im quite confused. And how much is the x6 now roughly? Thanks for ur great help

Actually, Nokia 5800 still in the market the last time i heard on the contrary the rumours that it is off the Malaysian market.

However, Nokia X6 is more worth to get it.

The size only available for the 8Gb and 16GB only. No slots for the memory card. It is the successor for the Nokia 5800 with a better camera.  wink.gif

Thanks for your fast reply. What happen to the 32gb? And is the price range different for 8gb and 16? I'm totally fine with both.. And is x6's performance good ( no lags,crashes,sound speaker problem and others ) ? How much for the 8gb and 16gb roughly?

Thanks in advance

It is not made known what happened to the X6 32GB. For me, Nokia phones powered with 434Mhz processor sounds fine with me as i NEVER suffer any crashes in Nokia device so far. Restarting or lagging is common if more than 5 application is running in the background at the same time.

I'm definitely getting convinced in x6 after checking more infos and reviews on it. Seems a great deal to me. It's video capturing is also pretty decent for a non camera based phone... Well, thanks for the info...as for the budget, it's surely under 1k? And does symbian phones need to be updated firmware or when i buy the dealer will set for me?

X6 16Gb is slightly above 1k for the original set. I doubt dealers simply would update the firmware for customer.

Thanks for the reply. If so, is the firmware downloadable for free or have to pay? And what are your thoughts of x6 vs n8 in terms of everything and also the price range?

For Symbian, it is free to update. However, the issue you should look at is that the S60V5 is not very obsolete if some people want to say that it is obsolete and it is still usable.

The price difference would be about Rm400 like that at least when compared with 16GB ones.

Can i participate as N86 user can participate? Interested to go there as well. Can PM me about the details? Thanks.

I am only willing to pay 50% of the current price for the N8 if it is available because i have other more important projects which requires cash.  blush.gif

Final thoughts, will be buying nokia x6 real soon.

It has a scratch proof glass screen? ( means wun calar at all? )

5MP ( checked and got auto focus? Like shake shake abit also won't blurry )

FREE GPS? ( VERY IMPORTANT )

Can i get new themes for it other than the standard themes?

If it were to be given a rating 1-10 how many based on it's performance?

Definitely good for music listening right?

Thanks for all the help.

No such thing as shake shake wont blur. Even godlike camera will blur it only helps to focus if sufficient light will reduce chance to be blur.
Free GPS can use ovi or garmin

Theme can always find alot

Rating i only give 4/10

N8 i give 8/10

Yes good for music

No that type of glass is on latest phone running symbian ^3

Hahaha, u must be a N8 lover... well, i'm a first timer in nokia ( going to be ) so i don't know what to expect from nokia but thanks for the overview... And your last sentence means that the x6 has the scratch proof or does not have?

Just bought the phone finally ( not nokia x6 they say no stock but i decided to go for samsung galaxy ace ) Regarding the phone's performance i'm pretty clear but just 1 little question.. Can this phone last for 3 years at least? Cause my old k750i can last for 4 and more will this able to do that? Of course im talking bout zero drops =)

It depend much on the owner as well.

You should take care the battery as no.1 priority. I did not own Galaxy Ace, so i am not sure if the battery is user replaceable?

If not, you know what it means.
