It doesn’t look all that dis-similar to the 5800 Xpressmusic or the 5530 which is just launched. Wonder why they (Nokia) are making the phones look just the same…
Nice phone., I like the way it look.. Thump’s up NOKIA..
5800 has all features, screen 3.2” 3.2mp(has auto focus x3 image and x4 video optical zoom + auto focus + dual led)
5530 doesnt have 3g,has a small screen size 2.8” 3.2mp(no optical zoom but auto focus with single led)
5230 doesnt hav wifi bt does hav 3g, screen size 3.2” 2mp(has x3 image and x4 video bt no led flash)
Really these phones are very cute.
