I love to see stereo speakers in a non Xpress Music phone...
Hope the sound quality and loudness will be great.. Must be a hit handset..
Price is around ~9000 Rs, or ~10000 Philipines currency...

    as far as I know, nokia is one of the best manufacturer that produce smartphones with low prices. So, people with low budget that want smartphone may buy from nokia.

    But as for the hi-end user, IMO, for now nokia isn't capable to produce exclusive phone with pretty expensive price, except one and only, the N900..

    I hope in not distant future, nokia will be able to produce exclusive phone, off course with reasonable pricing(not too cheap / expensive) but with superb capabilities like N900.

      And to look at this, their four digits naming system for others, hasn't reached saturation but they have repeat model nos. Probably the'll bring some other series like g-, w-, q-, f- etc...

            Once they finish making the 40 devices (c1-c9,x1-x9,e1-e9,n1-n9), there will be a new naming convention?

              the Phone perfected to the next level. This Phone is Nokia's symbol.

              Too bad it doesn't have a 5mp cam or wifi but sick phone anyway. The New Naming convention is sick man

                  WOW! I must say that this phone seems really impressive and I believe it will be a hit. I own a 5800, in winter the whole screen freezes so I can't use the phone for a while. Plus the talk and standby time is much more better than 5800:)

                    i think this phone will be a hit especially for people who need simple phone but packs a lot of feature. Think of 6300 + 5310Xpress music + the OS of Symbian. though the pricing is still an issue. How much would it cost in the Philippines though??

                          [deleted post]I don't see anything wrong with the keypad or design, keeping in mind where this phone will go. Overall design is very likable and you my friend, need to check your eyes or get your medicines before having another look.

                          Sony Ericsson did same with G series and it was a good attempt specially with touchscreen on board. Many people don't go for Smartphones mostly because of their strange look. With handsets like these, they will get to know what they have been missing.
