a MUST to buy i been waitin eversince i watch the Dark Knight batman movie.
lucky it still supports video ringtone tones coz i got a bunch of them

come to think of it,
luckily it is ranged under the Xpress Music (targetting mid range / student market)

imagine if it is tagged in N Series (upper range), we wouldn't be getting such attractive good price!

i still can't believe that such a feature-packed Nokia is tagged at HKD3000 only!

cause manufacturing keypad is expensive

okies, yeah, hopefully the first week of November , going to testing out whether can stream Windows Media and RMVB files or not ...

Nice...Got GPS build-in...But the camera is how many megapixel??

3.2MP Carls Zeiss with AF.

pop, pinjam photo kejap



look at that Guitar Pick (damn chio to match wif the Nokia 5800 XM)



alternatively, you may use the tip to touch the screen

i don see any ground breaking features except for touchscreen and larger screen.

If it is equipped with 5megapix I might buy I don feel like downgrading from 5megapix to 3megapix

This tube using single processor. Unlike N95 and N82 using dual processor because of the 5 megapix. The processor in Tube cannot support 5megapix thats why they put 3megapix only. And that is also one of the reason why the price is TAGed at HKD3000.
Without 3D hardware accelerator is a bit of the downside of this phone. Having such a big screen but without any FANCY/EYE CANDY animated UI is really dissapointed. 3D accelerator comes with the second processor. That explain why it doesnt have 5megapix, cheaper price and without fancy UI.

Like the N81 without 3D hardware accelerator but implementing FP2 animation UI, and other menu layout and cause laggyness is really a stupid move by nokia.

like said by smashpop, the Nokia 5800XM comes in 3 colors (Grey / Red / Blue)
so here's the blue Guitar Pick



damn, package comes with too much of freebies!
Nokia is damn generous, they're bundling a 8GB microSD card as well!

boss, this is XpresMusic, not N Series okay

like Nokia said, there are coming a real high end of these baby, so you can expect 8MP baby soon?

oh wait, Nokia just hint about E90 touch

wow so Nokia is entering the 8-MegaPixels battle very soon

xpressmusic is just a marketing strategy just like walkman.

eh, mayb the pick can use to play a guitar hero for 5800

i nvr used a touchscreen be4

do resistive touchscreen need to put screen protector?

for me, i think if u feel want to protect your device, no matter its a touch screen or not, you still will apply a screen protector to protect it from scratches..

Have you check out the actual videos of it yet? There are transitions on the user interface and it is nothing but smooth and intuitive. Also, although N95 has dual processors, there is no nothing in the developer documentation that states 3D hardware acceleration (OpenGL ES PowerVR MBX) is included in the second processor. So far, the only best guess is the dual ARM 11 processors refers to 1 for the main application accelerator and the remaining for the Nokia RAP processor for voice stack. This is the same implementation on WinMo PDA phones where they have 1 for application and 1 for baseband communication.

The tube do not have 5MP capability is because its not an N-series model. The ExpressMusic 5800 is in fact a trial product by Nokia in testing its S60 Touch. If it is successful, you will soon see an N-series offering in the near future. As far as the videos are showing, there are no sign of lagging on the interface but more to the unresponsiveness of the touchscreen which needs a lot of improvement.

but no doubt the price will shoot up 2 the N series level...
