                        Its Really a good smart phone, Real value for money. But u should purchase it after thoroughly checking of all the functions of it especially camera and bluetooth.Wifi connectivity and internet surfing on it is superb , better than GPRS. Camera is awesome. I like the stylish design too. Key pad is somewhat not user friendly fot typing the fast sms. That all about it.. but, I love my N 79- grey.

                          even if i have some bad comments about this phone, it has all i want, and i am quite satisfied with it.

                          may i ask, can the xpress on covers be bought from shops separately? i want to have the red, green, and white ones, since i was not able to but the white one..

                          i'd appreciate the answer yet again!!

                            Deepak, 13 Jan 2010Hello Friends, I'm a bit confused between this model and Nokia 5800 as both fall into almo... moreThe major problem with 5800 is it doesnt have multitouch facility as in iPhone.I feel that if nokia has given N79 atleast 50% of the promotion given to 5800 , N79 would have been a best seller like N73.I am using this phone for past 6 months , i never experienced any hanging prolems.Those must be relative to your phone memory conception and the applications installed on your phone.
