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...

              there is still a great difference between 279 and 700 euros. Nokia said this would be a mid-range phone. this is no mid-range phone price(700e). but its a nice phone.

                    from 279 to 700 is a looooong loooong way and there are out there at 450€ very very good deals - this is the new Nokia Marketing policy? Maybe this is why they have touched 40% of the market insted of 60% how it was 3 years ago ---- bye bye Nokia!

                      They are thieves who want to take that much maney from costumers. i will not pay price ower 350.euro newer! for that price i can bay my self best pda, laptop, a device that i can have all the multimedia glory on it! i sugest you guys not to pay any thieve company that price, and tell ewerybady the reall its price, and wait not to bay, because we nokia comunity have wait allmost one year now, and lets wait a bit more.

                        It is expected that Nokia would dig deeper into your pockets. perhaps the only time that you can expect this phone to drop it's price is when the Nseries touch nears it's launching

                          Nokia Phone is really good. But It still needs to increase the features and be the big multimedia device.

                            Looks good but with that kind of steep price tag, nokia is doing no good to its customer market.

                                i have tried this phone before. honestly i like the design and functions. but 1 thing which makes me feel it is not worth to buy it because the touchscreen isn't sensitive. unlike the rest of the touchscreen phones. u have to hold about 1 second in order to click a button. it is reli bad.
