Review
By Anshul Gupta Very user friendly phone

I'm very happy with the phone! I use it for phone calls, texting & quick photos where I'm too lazy to get my camera out of the box. The camera has a "flash" feature! I love the handwriting facility with the stylus & the haptic feedback. Conversation quality is great & the phone is very user friendly. I have no problems with the battery life (though I charge my phones daily out of habit).

I would have liked to have more than 4 images on the "desktop" for quick dialling. The option for video call is a nuisance, though you can avoid it by touching the phone icon from the contacts UI.

At this price, its one of the best phones! It has sold more than 6.8 million units globally. Before I bought the phone, I read the user reviews on various sites. This is definitely a great phone for people who want a touch screen phone for regular use. I haven't spend much time surfing the net or testing apps because thats not how I want to use my cell phone currently.

Unlike the iPhone, this phone has haptic feedback, good battery & it lets you add memory cards. It is also greater value for money.

By C. R. Martin "love2read" Incredible Phone!
I've only had my phone for a couple of days, but it is FANTASTIC. For someone new to smartphone technology, it was a very easy transition. I toyed around between the iPhone and the Nokia 5800 and Nokia won out. While the iPhone is a really great product, Nokia had features that it didn't have. For one, the Nokia 5800 is capable of recording video and sending MMS - something the iPhone does not do. It's great because you can switch out the memory cards (and EASILY) where as the iPhone is either 8GB or 16GB, no changing memory cards if you want to. The music quality is fantastic on the phone and I think the touch is really great. Picture quality is also better than the iPhone and the resolution is beautiful. I also love how there are so many shortcuts on the phone! I also love the side-locking feature. It's quick and easy to lock the phone so you don't have to worry about accidentally pressing buttons. Basically...this phone is fantastic especially price-wise!!!
