Nokia 5800 XpressMusic starts shipping, piggy banks beware

27 Nov, 2008
It's here folks - the first S60 fully touch-operated device has finally hit the shelves. Nokia kept up to their promise and released the handset before the end of November. Unluckily the price of the Nokia 5800...

      If you guys would check some of the blogs, it says that each country is bundling the phone with different services, driving the price up. This should end by the beginning of 2009. As for the resellers, they r taking advantage of the hype and if ur a smart shopper, you will wait until the worldwide release when prices will be lower.

                  Stop whinging about the price. Jeez anyone would think that decent phones are scheap now a days.

                  You pay for quality and Nokia is top quality compared to most phones.

                            the phone will be out in UAE on 15th of December n its expected price is around 3000 to 4000 dhs!!!

                            n for this price i guess HTC or Sony Xperia X1 is much better!

                              Im not sure where gsmarena got that ridiculous price from. The price range i have seen is 300-450 euros depending on region and date of release. The price should be stable by early 2009.
                              However, it is true that the retailers are really taking advantage of consumers by hiking the prices enormously and making nokia look bad in the process.

                                How is that price even possible?? I have this phone pre booked at a retail shop here in Sweden for 420 euros including taxes without contract, just the phone. Ridicilous prising rumor on this site.

                                    I'm buying it for 350€. If you're stupid enough to pay 900$, then be my quest.
