tharani, 24 Oct 2009'm plan to buy this mobile.. weather this mobile is good or not..Nice phone really loves it... Touch response, music, Free SN headset, damn amazing.. Bought it on 16th still now no more crashes or hangs but too much of apps & games aren't good for phones performance gets slow down in oppening apps & auto rotation takes time, otherwise more mp3's , photos & videos are not a performance killer... 8gb(after booting u may get 7.3gb) is large enough for media.... Small (some what big) disappointment is battery life lasts only for 1 -1.5 dayz with sensor settings OFF, back light time 15 secs, Light sensor low, No wifi, No 3G.......(lot to write) ,but i am using GPRS lot.... Build quality cheap plastic (hates china made plastic) gets finger prints easily, glossy plastic, some creaks (rarely).... Little suggestion if u bought it for 13.9K u can't get extra accesories ,for this u want to buy a new nokia branded cover (just visit 2nd page of the 5800 review) which is cool & sexy 350-RS,compulsory item "SCREEN GUARD" NOTE: thru screen guard dont cover the SENSOR items & Sec camera.... Thats all frnd Recommended it 95%..... Last but not least my 5800XM is surely a "PROUD in the CROWD" handset....

A touch screen phone with considerably larger and more pixel dense screen is cheaper than qwerty phones with relatively smaller and lower resolution screen. Probably E-series is business class and XpressMusic is economy class with discounts. At least Nokia wants us to believe that. Making the same journey at lower rates is a good decision.

              I am getting 3-4 days of batrey backup time. Just make sure you charge it to full, it takes around 1.5 hours to do so. Turn off GPS, WiFI, Bluetooth while not in use. Lock screen/phone while not in use.

                    Hey guys.. bought this phone a week back ( using ver 30.0.011 in india) ...

                    1. Battery life is poor. Lasts 1 day (24 hrs) with 1 hr music with headphones, 10-15 mins call, 60-90 mins of interenet on mobile(including fring/nimbuzz) and occasional gps usage (ive not used it so far but just played with it to check it out. Im guessing its bec of its large (and awesome looking) screen.

                    2. Web : i think the preloaded mobile browser is pretty good, but as someone already pointed out it shuts down sumtime for no reason at all... Youtube videos look good... I also use opera mini, which i think is more economical since it uses much lesser data.

                    3. Music Quality : Great.. No problems here.

                    4. UI : It was very good when i bought it.. now its almost the same but i feel it has slowed down marginally becaue ive installed quite a few applications and songs(less than 1 gb). Though still its ok and does not irritate.

                    5. Overall, I'd say a very good phone. Totally worth its price .. Only if you can charge it everyday...
                    To be frank I can charge it every now and then, but having a better battery life would be gr8.. nd i think 1 day is quite less.

                    Enjoy.. !

                    Rohan !!

                          mrn, 25 Oct 2009You can check out e55 and e71 too.tks for suggestion. In india, E55 would be 5000 INR costlier than 5800XM. Considering that the firmware updates to 5800XM cleared out some of the shortcomings like performance, i chose 5800XM than E55. Moreoever, E55 not yet released here.

                              phone and wondering about the battery life of this
                              phone, I'll tell you what to do, so your Lithium-Ion
                              battery will charge fully during initial period.
                              When you first get the phone, normally it will be
                              half-charge. Use it, until it gets discharge totally,
                              then charge it fully. Then again use it, until it
                              shut-off itself, and charge it again. Do this about
                              three times to get it to full capacity. After that,
                              you can charge it anytime that you fell like charging
                              it. The battery life will be much better, if you do
                              this initially. Hope this helps...

                                    Does Opera mobile 9.5 has a s60 ver.? People using 5800 how is the browsing experience? Can you read website articles on it comfortably? Are the touch controls, navigation and onscreen keyboard input good? And how are the websites viewed best, landscape or portrait?
