how can u compare nokia 5800 with it, it's 20K priced
and ths will be 10-12K range, so better compare it with LG cookie
and i guess this one scores over that.
I will surely buy s5230

I wasn't commenting about it's sales, I was talking about it's features tard. No wonder your name is 'Angr', you iPhone owners always get so defensive at the first mention of another phone being better.

S5600 definitly not fot image.
a 256K color screen + 2.8" 16M TFT display with 240 x 320 pixels resolution
????
Samsung is full with madness!
for midrange phones with a 2.8" at least the WQVGA screen please...

None of these samsung mid range phones are comparable to the mid range beast 5800, it is the best touch screen phone at the moment!!

I'm currently using the Samsung Eternity from AT&T (nothing special, but it was cheap and uses the TouchWiz UI). It's great! Very fast, graphics look good, very user friendly, and I can move all my widgets out of the way to actually enjoy my own wallpaper (get your iPhone to do that!) Also, full landscape qwerty texting is standard, scrolling through long lists is actually MORE enjoyable than on an iPhone due to the awesome haptic clicking, and dare I say that the photo gallery is actually better than on the iPhone!?! Yes, yes I do.

S5600 and S5230. Anything over 350 CAD wouldn't be worth it, especially the S5230

I like the S5600's design... it's a shame specs fail to back its looks! Reminds me of the HTC Touch... except with lesser features!
