REVIEW:

1) Best Phone on Market
I had owned various phones in the past and Nokia is the best on any comparison, for the Features available on this phone, had Apple had all these features it will cost 10 times more, most people don’t even know it has extra camera on the front for video Calls along with the 3.2 MP on the back, Video is far better and there were no sluggish performance as far as I had…

2)   OK phone.
Not so fantastic phone after all,.. I owned nearly every Nokia phones.

Touch screen so wimpy,.. very hard to navigation around. Impossibly to scroll down the phone book and stopping by the right name.

Also phone dead now,..when power up. Screen said Return to provi

3) excellent initial attempt by nokia,

Ever since I have used smart phones, nokia and symbian s60 has been my favorites, my last two phones being the n95-3 and the e71. I was hoping to hold out until the n97 but chose to give the 5800 a try.
The phone itself is built very solidly for a midrange phone, there’s no worry about dropping it and having it break on you, the screen is also very nice, this may not be the slimmest phone out there but it feels very comfortable in your hand, and the resolution looks incredible. I have a minor concern with the battery cover, it seems like it was more of an afterthought in the design of the device, there is no buttons or latches to secure it, just a few tabs that u click it into…I hope this doesn’t break on me quickly…..but I don’t see a need to be removing the cover very often, as the memory card and SIM card are inserted through the side, meaning this phone can have its memory cards switched very easily.
The user interface seems like a quick and dirty job, it is basically the s60 v3 operating system with some larger icons to make selection by touch a small simpler. Not a major overhaul on the operating system basically everything looks the same as previous nokia smart phones, the camera, video, and music interfaces could have made better use of finger controls in my opinion.
Another major concern that hopefully will be alleviated soon is the lack of third party apps, I’m assuming this operating system is still an infant and over time developers will start adapting their existing apps to use on touch devices.
Handwriting recognition is my favorite input methods, although the full screen QWERTY comes in a close second. The t9 keypad works fantastic for one handed operations, and the mini QWERTY keyboard is a joke.
I was disappointed to see that the US version does not ship with an extra stylus, NOR DOES IT HAVE A CARRYING CASE.

4) Very User Friendly Phone,

First let me start by saying that I’ve owned this phone for a month already and im VERY Pleased with it. It feels solid in your hands id does not freeze at all, like the n96 when you fill up the memory. Before i bought this phone i owned the nokia n95 (fantastic device) and the nokia N96(more memory but not so excellent) The only reason i did not give this nokia 5800 five starts its because of the camara quality which by the way is excellent but the n95 and n96 were better quality camaras and also video recording capabilities.But It Works a lot quicker and with a lot less or none problems so far than previews owned nokias. I Reckon Nokia could have done better in the camara area, Other than that nokia took a huge leap from the symbian 3rd edition to the fifth touch screen base. making the phone very user friendly and simple to use, yet adding a lot more features and ways to get to the applications quicker. it supports a 16GB memory card to store a decent amount of music video and pictures(it comes already with an 8GB memory card). the battery life (VERY Vital at least for me), is fantastic. Much better than the n95 and n96.I can go a hole day surfing the web and playing with the phone and the battery does not seem to die. There Is A Shortcut for nearly everything from the main screen that can also be customized to your four favorite contacts being able to see all the recent activity like calls e-mails or text messages and place calls from their picture icons. this phone can be used as a router which is fantastic if you are carrying a laptop and do not have a network available the phone can provide it for you. it also comes with an amazon coupon of $50 to download movies from amazon unbox (another plus). Music Sounds clear and loud with hidden speakers. If You Are Plotting on buying a nokia i really recommend this one over the n95 and n96 ( if you like touch screen) . E-mail settings is very simple the phone automatically recognizes the servers and ports from the e-mail you are typing in like (yahoo,hotmail, gmail ect). it was more complicated with previous devices to set up e-mail accounts also GPS works quicker and better on this device. In General its the most refined version of symbian working better in every aspect. If You Are Going to buy this phone i strongly recommend you to buy it on amazon the price is a lot cheaper and the cust service policy and people are a lot more linient and reliable that the nokia ones (nokia cust serv SUCKS) Excellent Luck.
