"Strangely, while capturing videos, the phone interface is choppy. That reflects on the videos and they freeze every few seconds or so"

I was looking forward to buying this phone but now I am not sure if I'm gonna buy it, after all the things I've read about OLED screens. Maybe I will go with Sony Ericsson C905.

Andy Burgin, 11 Nov 2008just go onto the Nokia website an put in your fault in the Repair section an Nokia should tell... moreNokia won't give warranty for water lock problems. Don't you know that. This is totally a waste model from world's biggest mobile manufacturer. What is the use of buying this mobile when the display has no lifetime?

im a wise consumer now! im not going to buy this phone until its price subsides to at least 18,000 pesos. im not gonna spend anymore 20,000 plus pesos just for a phone when i can buy it for a much cheaper price after some period of time! haha

Nirodha, 11 Nov 2008There's always going to be something newer and better waiting in the wings. If you want the N8... moreyeah, i agree. infact, nokia is currently developing 14 smartphones. most of these are touch devices with vga display. the last non-touchscreen phone will be codename "corolla". and i think that will be the "N98" becos that phone will bear 8mp camera. there is also some kind of "N85i" thats on the way. it will be N85 with a xenon flash. however, nokia is really behind other manufacturers becos the likes of samsung and htc already have released the kind of handsets that nokia is yet developing at the moment.

Ju... morein real life situation, a phone equipped with a single 369mhz processor like n81 is faster than a phone equipped with a dual 332mhz processor like n82. ive had both phones so i know single chip 369mhz processor is still faster than the dual 332mhz processor.

But the screen size is 3.2... more5800 is a midrange phone and its not appropriate to equipped it with an expensive dual processor. the single chip freescale processor is a cost cutting measure implemented by nokia.

Why don't you try htc touch diamond which has 528 mhz processor, 192 mb ram (64 mb reserved for graphics) and 256 mb rom?
It's also a touch screen with 640*480 pixel (VGA resolution), 2.8 inch screen. It's also a smartphone based on Windows mobile 6.1 professional edition.

Even 5800 has single 369 mhz processor, 128 mb ram and 256 mb rom. But the screen size is 3.2 inch. And resolution is 640x360(16:9 ratio). And it's a touch screen. I am confused why nokia is not using dual processors?

They have clearly said that it has organic materiels. It has only limited lifetime. And the intrusion of water can damage or destroy the organic materiels.
Then phone is very slow. The processing speed of nokia n82, n95 and n95 8gb is dual 332 mhz. Where as n85's processor is not dual. It's only single 369 mhz. Ram memory is 74mb and rom memory is 78mb where as all the other models have 128mb and 256 mb respectivly. So it's not an upgrade from those models. It's a downgrade. :p
To all n85 users and buyers.
I'm sure nokia will make you to think for another upgrade very soon. That's marketing technique. :d
