Nokia 5800 XpressMusic review: Young as you feel

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic review: Young as you feel - read the full textIt's touchscreen o'clock for Nokia and the stage is set for the 5800 XpressMusic. Go ahead and touch it. We did and we've got a story to tell. Now, it's technically not the first time Nokia get their hands dirty with touch screens, but it sure feels they really mean business this time. For Nokia 5800 is not the only story here...

And also there you can find the suit settings, for the virtual navigation that appears on some applicaton, and there you can manage the net connection of your app. But theres a problem there when theres a lot of apps you already installed, it might not open. To fix this is to delete the apps, which suck for a smartphone...

hi i m using this phone since august 2009.i m nt getting any problem.this phone is awasome.but only thing is the battery back up.though this is a touch screen mobile and multimedia phone along with GPS facilities so . battery runs more.it gives 3-4 hrs talk time but only 24-28 hrs stand by with normal uses.

other wise its a excellent one.

wel i hve been usin ths device since 25th dec 2009, i update ma device regularly, currently m usin v52.0.007... Wel according to me every version worked nd workin gr8 on ma cel, yeah i got probs of rebooting bt by formatting device it works gr8, to format the phone jst go to dialler nd dial *#7370# nd enter ur pin code... It wil get formatted nd wil work gr8, wel user interface z jst ok ok compared to today's phones bt it dsnt make ny difference to me as its user frndly nd compatiblity z pretty gud, ppl talk abt its touch z nt tht sensitive bt once u get set wid it u wil find no troubles wid it, camera z rather disappointing compare to nokia n73, it had awesome cam... Sound quality on speaker z pretty gud nd awesome in ma panasonic headphone, wel i hve tricked here, i use nokia headset til d part of remote control nd continue it to panasonic headphone so i get al d controls in ma hand while driving... Multi tasking works fine, to me it wud get 8 out of 10.... :-)

I came across a software called enCam v1.0.2, it is supposed to enhance 5800's pictures, how true is this?

thanks

Look on the Scarlet 2 gallery for example, browsing your pictures is a painful slideshow. Maybe you just don't use your 5800 at full potential. Think about Opera, accelerometer based games, SPB Mobile Shell, thousand of custom themes, multi-tasking and the thousand of applications and customizations you can use on your phone. Unless you're talking about high-end Samsung phones, they simply can't match Nokia 5800.

I have 1 thing to say..This PHone rocks
i own an iphone 3g and this 5800...mainly bcoz am a big phone maniac
even thou the iphone is packed with a high processor nd ram its Lags Like hellllllllllll..!!! Thru Upgrading the 5800 it will stop laging
btw i knw da picture aint 2 gud bt far better than iphone
the downfall is dosent charge thru microUSB
but i kills the stupid iphone
FM radio
Good GPS Naviagtion
MMS Multi Sms
Multi-Tasking
3rd Party Apps..
And the last bt nt da least
CHEAP..!!!

Had used the phone from firmware V20, V40, and now V51 OS. each time i upgrade i get more performance. not much problem of reboot but the camera quality for still photo SUCKS. hell on 3.2Mpix. dont even have the clarity of a 2 Mpix camera. A waste homescreen. Good backup if using it just for calls. if you wanna browse net on it battery drains around 1hr. if browsing more than 10 pages it shows memory full close some application. try the interface of LG or samsung touch phones. You will hate 5800. I will give only 5/10.
