Were you clinically dead or something for the last few months? S60 touch is far better then UIQ.
No offense dude, but that was a really crazy comment!!!!!!

I personally prefer the Samsung Omnia and SE Xperia X1 and the king of touchscreen phones the iPhone !


5800 is a NokiPhone lol

I find the XpressMusic brand 'childish'

This phone is ribbish. I feel that the Samsung Omnia is a much better phone, even the i-phone the better. I don't have one myself but I do have a few friends who have the i-phone and I've used their phone and I believe this touch screen to be far better than the nokia all with the other applications. I've always ways been a nokia person, but I think that this phone along with a lot of their other phones are just living off the nokia name.

Someone actually asked why this phone would cost less than the Xperia? Are you kidding? As a Nokia user myself, and an owner of the Xperia I can tell you that this phone's capabilities is no where close to the Xperia's. Love Nokia's, but Xperia is by far the better of the 2.

Usually you expect a professional touch device but with the truly awful Symbian os lying in its heart it\'s just another symbian with poor 3rd party software. Symbian applications have very few advanced features....

Still waiting for that review, gsmarena. C'mon, just a quick preview at least? First impressions perhaps?
