Good phones but with huge lags
Nokia 5800 express music is a u... morefirstly on paper the 5800 looks better than the iphone what it think vishal you choose 5800 becuase you cant afford an i phone. the screen resolutions better on a 5800 however the quality and clarity of the iphone is alot better. secondly music and applications are avaliable to directly download to the iphone.
the 5800 baterry may be better however the iphone screen is brighter, bigger and the processor used in the phone is alot more powerful there for it would use alot more battery power.
from expereince i have been in mobile industry 5 years nokia are still stuck in the past they have just released 8mp camera phone where samsung have done it 9 months ago there massive gian you made them out to be infact they stand 4th best seller in uk. being beat by apple who only been trading in phones 2.5 years.
the iphone is designed to run all apllications at the same time the 5800 crashes liestening to music and texting at the same time not really good.
iphone can zoom,video at 24fps save drafts mms aswell so you didnt really reasearch that well.
sure it comes in two colors but doing a bit of reasearch 5800 not doing very well
infact theres 4 million iphone users in uk and 200k 5800 users. nokia interface is aweful. people rather use fingers to navigate a phone than a stylus reason being stylus always get misplaced, fingers are kind of attached.
however do your reasearch even an idiot knows you cant compare the two machines directely. iphone is really designed for internet use where 5800 is based on media iphone does bothe better. and both phones take a 3.5mm headphones so there no different. on that side of things 5800 i concider to be one a waste of time

Nokia: Ages of experience, hundreds of success stories and dozens of smart handsets in current portfolio. Nokia has about 40% market share with the No.1 spot with no close competitors. Certainly the king when it comes to brand value, service and experience.
Apple: First phone ever launched by Apple is Iphone, no prior experience in the telecom market. It’s a novice in the market with a very less market share despite having millions of Iphone sold.
Verdict:
Almost all the major brands around the world like Samsung, HTC, LG, etc launched their touchscreen smartphones with a hope to beat Apple’s Iphone. No-one came close to Iphone when it comes to looks, style, feel and features.
This is the first time a tech giant like Nokia has hit it hard with its first true touchscreen smartphone. Nokia 5800 is a real Iphone killer with way ahead features, perfect looks and great price.
Bravo Nokia, Well Done!!
