    btw, i recommend user to install third party onscreen keyboard. with handy input u can choose wide range of onscreen keyboards including iphone style.

      wifi is not everywhere. 3.5G is much better, accessible werevr ul go. great 5230, HSDPA & Symbian Touch powered smartphone at cheap price.

                ive been married to this handset for weeks and i find it very impressive. i truly enjoy its operating system. its one of the cheapest smartphones today. if you dont know how to explore OS, better buy china phone or samsung.

                        Nokia phones have the same old habit of slowing down as we keep loading the memry card,(and this one's no different!!) pretty annoying at times. :-(

Try to download "bluet0oth file manager", it allows u to browse the ph0ne and mem0ry card of any ph0nes which has bluet0oth enabled, and saves it directly in ur mem0ry card with0ut passing inb0x. Ü

                                I currently use Samsung 3500 that has QVGA videos @ 15 fps. Can any one please tell me how much superior is the video recording in Nokia 5233/5230, as compared to my Samsung s3500. Not in terms of specs, but in real terms.

                                Thanks!!!

                                    Hi, got Nokia 5233, very happy with the hs/ so far but the battery does not last even for one day. I m not using the music option as well. Even when the is locked every 3-4 mins screen comes on and again goes blank again. When screen comes on there a small red dot blinking on top right hand side of screen. Can any one help we understand what is happening.

                                      zack, 19 Feb 2010Does it have Wifi Nope...thats the only thing that bugs most people

                                      if you want Wifi you can check out 5530 or 5800 XM.
