    I am using this phone for the last 7 days. It is a good phone in this price range. But speaker sound output is very bad, but with bluetooth stereo headset it is amazing. Camera snap is very good in day light. Battery backup is average.Display and touch sensitivity is very good. I think it is value for money.

              avra, 14 Jan 2010hey guyz.i wanna buy n 5230.i've heard dat music player nd ... moreAbout "music player and volume is not good"
              Music player has two aspects : UI and Output

              - UI of 5230 is fairly good looking with album art and necessary controls ( check this snapshot of music player : http://www.gsmarena.com/showpic.php3?sImg=reviewsimg/nokia-5530-xpressmusic/sshot/gsmarena_054.jpg ). So UI is good

              - Audio output : Audio output quality is "perfect" even better than 5800 XM. You can check the 5230 review pg 6 for details.( Here's the link : http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_5230-review-427p6.php )

              - Volume (both in speaker and headphone)
              Speaker of 5230 is mono. The sound is not crystal clear and also not very loud but it is average sounding.
              The provided one is an average one. You can't expect more from a sub-9000 phone. But if you buy some other headsets the sound quality will be top notch depending on the headset you buy. Volume is loud enough.

              Verdict : music player : very good, volume is average.

              And about 5230, Its not yet released anywhere in the world. Difference is that 5235 has been branded with "comes with music". Read about it here : http://www.gsmarena.com/calling_music_fans_nokia_5235_comes_with_music_announced-news-1320.php .

Check it out : http://www.nokia.co.in/find-products/products/nokia-5230?lid=music_displayed_5230_teaser_header_228X96&ca=5230&t=5230&lpos=row2_position1 . Scroll down for complete info.
                    It seems this phone has been paced as a multimedia (music,video) and Social networking phone.
                    But with Symbian S60 you can get the software from here : http://www.dl4all.com/search/Quickoffice+Mobile+Office+viewer+for+nokia+5230+free.html

                            Hi i got my 5230 a week back and yes it has a place for stylus just like 5800 and they also provided me strip stylus instead of extra back pack. I bought it for around 8300 from Hyderabad, INDIA. The camera quality at night is far better than 5800. trust me.

                                    Does 5230 has an inbuilt space in the body structure of the phone to hold the stylus ? just like 5800 has it.
                                    5230 users, please confirm.
