well im planning to buy this mobile im a previous owner of the nokia 5700 xpress music , where all the popularity of the nokia xpress music range all began .

however i excepted this model to have k. scrolling at the first release . but sadly it doesnt im a bit afraid that if i buy this and ill get stuck with the remaining firmware . maybe i should wait . im loving symbian phones but to tell you the truth i accepted a bit more advance interface on this model which i cant see right now . but screen quality is good . thx man .

If you bothered to read a couple of pages back before posting your question you would have found the answer there. The i900 is equipped with windows mobile 6.1 which majority of the users find it quite complicated. Plus the scrren of the i900 is rubbish. I have used a i900 and I can vouch that the 5800 has a better screen. Quick office and adobe reader applications are avilable in the 5800 buy both are evaluation copies buy if you're ready to spend a few bucks you can get both software running with no problem. I suggest you go for the 5800 because its an all rounder.

Before this they made 2 internet tablets, the Nokia 7710 and another phone with a touch screen. I advise you to read the instruction manuals provided with the phone if you don't have any idea what you're about to do. Before posting such statements get your facts right!

                        5800 is so unflexible with customising, "come with music" is only a limited feature to some phones and the offer is no loger available and folder organizing and file transfering is crap... i have nothing but stress with this phone. Guys this is Nokia's first attempt at touch phones, give its a miss wait til they have sorted all the problems. you guys are just their product testers really. they'll have to adapt to your reviews and bring somthing better in years to come. don't waste your time...I know i did.

                                20 Reasons Why Nokia 5800 is better than Apple Iphone

                                Here are some reasons we believe Nokia 5800 is way ahead than Iphone-

                                1) Size
                                The iphone is bigger in size and uneasy for one hand grip. Nokia 5800 is designed to fit well into your hands. Being smaller in width, its easy to operate single handedly.

                                Iphone size: 115.5 X 62.1 X 12.3 mm
                                Nokia 5800 size: 111 X 51.7 X 15.5 mm

                                2) Weight
                                Iphone is much bulkier than Nokia 5800. Nokia 5800 is 25g lighter than Iphone in weight.

                                Iphone: 133g
                                Nokia 5800: 109g

                                3) Screen Resolution
                                The Iphone has 3.5” screen while Nokia 5800 has 3.2” but the resolution of 5800 is far more superior to Iphone.

                                Resolution:
                                Iphone: 480 by 320
                                Nokia 5800: 640 by 360

                                4) Storage
                                Iphone comes with two options- 8GB & 16GB internal memory. Nokia has a more flexible option to offer 8GB with micro SD card which is expandable upto 16GB. Nokia owners can expand memory size according to needs which the Iphone guys can’t do.

                                5) Input Methods
                                Iphone: Finger only.
                                Nokia 5800: Finger, stylus, plectrum, handwriting recognition.

                                6) Features
                                Apple Iphone has lots of missing features like cut and paste function, saving email attachments, no support for third party headphones, ringtones, applications, many software bugs and other technical glitches. Nokia 5800 Tube has no such issues plus many more amazing features included.

                                7) Colors
                                Iphone: Black for 8 & 16 GB, White for 16 GB only.
                                Nokia 5800: Red, Blue and Black.

                                8 ) Battery
                                Nokia 5800 provides upto 35 hrs of music playing time against Apple Iphone which claims just 24 hrs. Overall battery power (talktime/standby) is also about 30% more in Nokia 5800. What more, 5800 has a removable battery which Iphone lacks.

                                Iphone: 5 hrs talk-time, 300 hrs standby, not removable.
                                Nokia 5800: 8.8 hrs talk-time, 406 hrs standby, removable battery.

                                9) Camera
                                Iphone: 2 MP, no flash, no zoom, no additional camera.
                                Nokia 5800: 3.2 MP, Flash, 3x digital zoom with Carl Zeiss lens. A second camera in front is available for video calling/conferencing.

                                10) Video Calling
                                Iphone: No Video calling possible in Iphone.
                                Nokia 5800: Video calling is possible.

                                IPhone: No option for video recording.
                                Nokia 5800: Video recording is included.

                                12) Music Service
                                Iphone: Paid service with Apple Itunes Store. You pay and download music to your Iphone.
                                Nokia 5800: “Comes with music” service is bundled with Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic phone by which you can download as much music as you want for 1 year- FREE!!

                                13) Voice Dialing
                                Iphone: Not Available
                                Nokia 5800: Available

                                14) Voice Recording
                                IPhone: Not Available
                                Nokia 5800: Available

                                15) Web Browser
                                Iphone: Webkit based Safari browser, no flash available.
                                Nokia 5800: Webkit based browser, supports flash lite.

                                16) FM Radio
                                Iphone: Not Available
                                Nokia 5800: Available

                                17) Bluetooth
                                Iphone: Bluetooth is available for just handsfree, no file sharing possible.
                                Nokia 5800: Bluetooth available for handsfree and file sharing is possible. Better audio quality on bluetooth in 5800 with A2DP technology which Iphone lacks.

                                18) Messaging
                                Iphone: It does not support message forwarding, multiple SMS deletion, sending SMS to multiple recipients and multimedia messages (MMS).
                                Nokia 5800: All the above is possible plus it has MMS ver 1.3, message size upto 600kb, and automatic resizing of Images for MMS.

                                19) Price
                                Nokia 5800 is hopefully unlocked (without any contract) and will sell much cheaper for just £219 in UK which is equal to 279 Euros or $385.

                                Apple iPhone 3G, on the other hand, with contract in US comes for $199 & $299 for 8 & 16 GB models and the plans with AT&T are way too expensive. Unlocked Apple Iphones sells for around $800 on Ebay.

                                In other parts of the world, the 8GB unsubsidized Iphone model costs 499 euros ($700) in Italy, 350 pounds ($620) in UK, $700 in India. Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic is expected to sell around the world for about $400 or below.

                                20) Experience
                                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!!

                                        thank you very muCh for your answer and for informations..Im not considering it as in investment by the way, just nothing, a simple want like others do.. I just like to have this phone though sacrifice is needed much.. I'll just do consider investment after i finish my engineering course..Hoping for it to become cheaper after few months..Hehe.
