Hello guys! I have not used the phone for over a month and I should say that it has been working pretty great on me. Although there were some moments where the phone seemed to malfunction.

one time i was accessing internet through wifi the screen suddenly showed multi-colored blurr kinda looked like the colors of the phone dragged on the screen or something like that.

The battery life on the first week was good but I observed that if you try to use the music features a lot the battery drains easily. Now I charge it every two days and it goes dead every two days as well.

The camera is fine but there is no option which you can turn the clickin into silent mode. not that i know of. If you know how to turn the sound off for camera please post it here.

Also there were a lot of times that the phone seems to freeze but it's not that big of a deal.

Also, the phone is sensitive enough that when you turn sideways the menu or navigation path will turn sideways as well.

Music is great! The speakers are on the sides are fine. Speakerphone is clear aswell.
I have not used the TV out but I just hoped there's a bluetooth headset that comes with the box

Overall I give the phone 7 out of 10. had achieved my expectations okay.

              I'm the happy owner of a brand new nokia 5800; but much to my disappointment, the built-in photo editor just doesn't work! I select the photo I want to edit in the gallery, and upon tapping add effect under options in the the photo editor, the image simply closes and exits back to the gallery, instead of bringing up the editing menu with many options to choose from. Why is this so? Oh ya by the way I've also updated my phone firmware to the latest one, V30.0.011. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

                  Still having problems with typing. hand writing recognition is a bit hard too with some letters dont match to mine even when I want it to be recognized. TV Out is so cool, my first time. pics are zoomed accoring to your 4:3 TV. widescreen is small. no bugs so far for overall experience. How many songs can I put? 1000? My 5320 can handle 500 songs. if 501 or more, the list is broken

                        Ok... I've been using this phone for quite some times now and this phone sometime died on me which I have to switch back on. What gives? but overall quite superb with a little set backs. But one thing that still playing riddle in my head is... does this phone CPU uses ARM 11 434 MHz processor or ARM 11 369 MHz processor? because the shop here in Brunei stated ARM 11 369 MHz CPU. Did they change the processor back to a slower older model? but I find it quite faster than e71i

For no reason at all, the memory card plainly "disappears" from gallery. I went to a nokia repair center and I´m now waiting to see if it´s solved. Luckily it´s still in warranty time... Apparently they have to fix the card connetions. Memory card is ok, it´s the phone itself.

My friend once had that phone and she changed it to another phone 2 days after getting the N70. Even the update she had for the N70 wasn't helping the lag issue. So far for the xpress music 5800 is not bad. The response time is acceptable. Honestly if u want a fast speed phone, my opinion, is that you should get something without 3G and all the gadgets. Sometimes it's just the memory you put into the phone which makes it laggy. But, depends on what you want but I would suggest you to get this phone.

                                      Have to agree with Chai. The camera quality is quite bad at night bu during the day it looks nice. Overall, I think it's an acceptable phone. Been using it for a few months now, still doing good.
