31 July, 2009

            I think it's much better with wifi and better camera image. Removing one specs in original it will not be famous

              Nokia should just make a whole new Touchscreen phone to succeed the 5800!

                  I think imaging wasn't Nokia's priority these days even if they have the N86. Really, 5800's camera suck bigtime. It's a shame they put a Carl Zeiss name on it.

                    and this is one of the reasons i hate nokia (though i have one...this same model as this news) that nokia makes a model an 6months comes out an i version.

                        If it's just got a slightly upgraded camera & no upgraded CPU then file it under C,R or T.

                        Crap.
                        Rubbish or Rip off.
                        Trash.

                        Like most of the phones that Nokia are now producing using Symbian, they are just Crap, Rubbish or Rip off (Price wise) or Trash.

                        Save your money & buy the SE Satio.

                            Well, it does not seem a big diff but actually it is a very good option lost in 5800i. I don't think it will succeed bec the positive update has 20% but WiFi has 35%.

                            Thxzzzzzz

                              I assume its missing wifi to keep it cheap? Same with the 5330 missing out 3g.
                              I think Nokia is placing itself at the bottom end of the smartphone market with this, which is no bad thing. Theres plenty of consumers who want to 'keep up' but not spend lots.
                              Clever Nokia.

                                    hmm.. they should have made another unit instead of reusing the same model. and naming it again 5800 with "i"..
