Rajiv, 16 Oct 2009Guys check this out... QT 6 on Nokia 5800 – The Future of things to come http://senseappli... moreGuys i've installed Qt 4.6 (sorry it’s not Qt6). The kinetic scrolling in Anomaly Browser is brilliant but no flash support. This browser is better than Opera Mini.

Hi, a quick review from sunny SA - Got myself the Nokia 5800 Xpress Music today (and note this, in SA we normally get all the stuff that doesn't seem to work) I have to tell you, it's great :-) na, it's not some HTC, I-Mate or even the fruity phone's brother, this one has got it's own look and feel plus it brings a vibe. It does one amazing thing, it offers you what Nokia said it would and this you should make sure of before getting one. In sort, it's a music phone and it's stunning. The moment you start taking it out of the box you will note that bubbly feeling deep down, it excites you in the most midi-evil way, with sound and visual oneness.
But let me give you the run down for free, first up. I spend allot of time looking into what this phone offers and what not. I spend time reading reviews like this one and it helped me sure .. with all majestic things comes casualties and it seems Nokia is suffering badly with this one these days. The phone does not give you the idea, once in your hand, that it's flimsy but it lacks that old tradition of feeling like a brick. So you when you touch it you get that stupid voice in the back of your mind telling you "it's gonna break mate" after spending some time with it thou and not putting it down or leaving it alone, I must say I feel more confident in using it and might even consider putting it in my pocket next time. One thing I do not like is Nokia clearly knew about this problem and therefore they have tried there best to make everything else on the body of the phone impossible to access, work with, open up or move. You will note this early on by
lifting flaps to insert your sim or by simply trying to lift up the cap that hides the USB connector socket.
I spend more then hour trying to get the stylist out of it's hiding place with no real success, after a wile you get the feeling that this phone's best friend should be a pocket knife to lift up all the flaps and remove covers. Lucky 4 me nothing has broken yet and you do get a spare stylist in the box (good idea and now I know why)
The phone's sound, workings, software, layout and basically everything thing else is just wonderful. If you are a real skeptic, you will find something to complain about with pure perfection anyway so I will move on. The software and OS are quick, easy and really simple to understand. In real Nokia tradition there is some pointers and settings were you are
forced to open the manual and read a paragraph or two .. and that's a good thing! Setting it up and making it play music and video is as simple as clicking some buttons and a much quicker task then oooh let's say lifting body flaps! I have got mine in red and it's a looker for sure, very sexy, lightweight and something you might leave
behind, so be careful. As far as using the thing as a phone (and that is what it's suppose to be) it's no effort and it hasn't failed me in anyway towards communication.
One thing nobody mentioned or talked about is the fact that the phone has got a 3.2m/px camera, it's like everybody is not telling on this and keeping the secret, the camera is a real let down and not something you should count on. Yes
it takes photo's and video's and yes it even goes "click" wile it's doing it, but the quality and real ability is lacking. I suspect this is gonna be the number one killer for this other wise great phone considering now that the "N Range" has got a 5m/px on board as standard. But come on, let's be honest, it's not like they are gonna make the perfect phone is it, there will always be something that will not be as good as another thing, helping you into buying the other something and replacing what you have, it's called technology :-)
I say it again, this phone is more then just connecting people, it's a friend for a rainy, lonely nights and it's a pocket DJ for when your clubbing and making some real noise and in day time you can use it for all the basic functions each phone should have. It's got a great internet browser, GPRS, HSDPA and WLAN options, it comes standard with an 8G memory
card offering enough space for image and audio and over above this there is a TFT resistive touchscreen with 16M colors, 360 x 640 pixels in size. Cool stuff (if you want to take a moment to learn) is the handwriting recognition software, double up
options to choose between keyboard layouts and stunning time, event and calender options. Like I have said, it's 111 x 51.7 x 15.5 mm real sexy, good looking, very loud phone and I'll tell you what. I am enjoying it and looking forward to using it (even with my knife handy) and that isn't something I have felt with many other phones over the last couple of years .. well done Nokia. Now go get yourself one, cheers for now, OP - South Africa

if your mp3 files don't work anymore is most likely that your MicroSD card is corrupted or has some corrupted files on it. That happened to me also few days a go. I herd is there are other people that had the same problem with the Nokia MicroSD memory.
If you are more interested in knowing more bout viruses read this :

Don't mean to offend anyone but this is like the worst buy of my life.
I dont know if it's only me or what, but it's garbage.
I've always trusted nokia but this time Im very disapointed.
Signal/sound quality are good, but maps and web surfing are real bad and absolutely slow.
It just cant support having 2 apps working at the same time. Im one of those who like to listen to music while surfing the web.. Well its just ot possible the would crash after 2-5 minutes.
not very functionable screen since you actually must click on the screen, not good for an easy use of the keyboard.
playing photos as video is also veeeery slow.
Ive read a bit about viruses but I dont think thats my case because this has happened since day 1.
According to my experience, I dont recomend buying it.
