it's only 15.5 mm thick...W810i is 19 mm ...
and for a 3.2" screen, it's width is really acceptable...Very tempting..
*
actually its thickness can be considered acceptable, but too bad competitor's phones (similiar style) are slimmer thus make this Tube can be considered quite fat tongue.gif

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.

from the beginning Nokia already mentioned this Tube is midrange phone...so what u expect from mid tier phone? smile.gif
n they also already mentioned there will be a high end version for s60 touch...this Tube will be their 1st attempt to discover ppls perception and anticipation. n currently Nokia hs shift to target mid segment coz most ppl aim for this segmet...
nway, hopefully the Nseries Touch can give answer for ur question n requirements biggrin.gif

RM1.7k? Judging from the specs..I seriously doubt it bro. My guess is that it'll be easily rm2.5k.. sweat.gif
*
haiyooo, why wanna be 2.5k?
nokia mentined it is mid range laa...
the price conversion js aroun 1.3k+. including tax might the max 1.8k.
this Tube target mass market.
if this tube price at 2.5k, so n85 will be at what price?
n78 = 300euro
n82 = 350euro
n79 = 400euro
n85 = 450euro

thats latest nokia pricing (read it sumwhere in review)
so if tube price at 2.5k, n85 will be nearly 4k la...even n96 around 3-3.2k.

so, tube shud be max at 1.8k only.
the lower the better

trust me.. its 1.4 - 1.7 only

dont worry pop, we trust u more. smile.gif
pricing at 2.5k price range will ruin nokia's target to position this phone as mid-tier and for mass market
