Has anyone here ever owned an iPhone, and actually prefer the 5800 over the iPhone?
I've tried this phone out...but it feels like a real lag fest...
well..if you have lots of cash and prefer design and style over functionality, by all means go with the iPhone.
I'm going to buy the tube soon, but i also must say that the interface of the tube is nothing compared to iphone. Also iPhone uses a capacitive screen which is very much more responsive than the resistive screen of the Tube. Although u can use a stylus on the Tube and not on the iPhone.
I dun think the Tube is a real lag fest, u probably left the theme effects on. If u turn it off it is quite responsive, though not comparable to the iphone haha.
I don't own an iPhone, but I used it before. I prefer the Tube mainly becos:
1. its half the price
2. u get 640x360 nHD
3. I can actually send an MMS! wow!
4. Symbian which equals Garmin for GPS. iPhone only has google maps if i'm not wrong.
5. Multiple input options.
6. 3.2Mpx camera and 30fps recording.
and may I stress again that its half the price of an iPhone
