Here's my side..I arrived and saw the promoter holding the phone and chatting to her colleague..I didn't bother asking..I hoped that there's another unit..apparently not..
Went around the roadshow..then back to her..wanted to see the phone as she was holding it..but she buat tak tao =.=
Then I asked "Is this the 5800?"
Her muka like dunwan layan "Yeah"..I asked "Could I have a look?"
She just hand over to me and never really explain anything..
I took and mess around with what I know..lol
Camera + Flash - I couldn't really see the final picture..as the screen is small..need to actually upload it..but after snapping..it look quite sharp..and man..the flash is bright!
Screen - I love the touch screen..some comments over the net states that it's more like a "press-screen"..I've gotta disagree..just a slight tap from either finger or nail..it picks up..I wouldn't say it's perfect..sometimes it does not detects..but I'm pretty much happy
Messaging - Using the full qwerty is fun..though people with big fingers like me..
may have slight trouble...but heck..there's a stylus-pick..though it's not attached with the demo phone
Price & Date of availability- Upon asking the price and expected date..she said price should be RM2k
plus..and available
end of DecemberI know that the date and price mentioned contradicts with everyone that has visited the booth..therefore I wouldn't recommend believing it yet =/
She then immediately ask "Want to pre-order this phone? Can get free stereo headset when you pre-order..no need to pay anything..."
I was like "Ngeh? Nevermind..It's coming out end of December right? I'll get it then"
I then left..lol
eh? either she is bad mood or she doesnt like u..hehe..
when i asked..i donno which one of them..they are only 2 units demo-ing..
She explained from the screen is 3.2 touchscreen..blabla....to the " what is AGPS"..i was like
She keeps talking n talking..like wanna promote and sell the phone at the spot...
let me test the headsets quality and stuff...how to type sms..the auto rotate thingy..almost everything she knows..
in the end..ask me wanna preorder or not..i was thinking "why not" even though i dont really like the phone..wahahahahahah
and guess what..when i left..i was like " crap..i forgot to test the loud speaker!!!"
then i went back and ask her to let me play with the phone again..she was like...SURE..try all u like...
my conclusion for the phone..
- too plasticky
- a lil bit laggy ( after she as explainined to someone bout the qwerty keypad..then she turn the phone back to vertical position, she wanted to start talkin bout other sms input method but the horizontal qwerty mode just hang there for a moment..then she quickly tap tap tap..then only it went back normal..
- nothing much bout the touch UI..nothing fancy...just Symbian 60 with bigger icons..
- a bit on the bulky side
- camera..soso..
- loudspeaker..LOUD..but lack of bass..
i think thats it for me...there goes my "dream phone for 2009"
