Nokia 5800 gets Major Price Cut

Wow……coool man..
good news.

Ji Babu.. Yehhi Hai Right Choice Baby….Ahha.
Unbelievible price rate. I think to go for it before I get a N900.

ya the price is 13.5k but i think nokia have removed many things from the box like extra stylus,pouch,stand,tv out cable.
even the tv out feature has been removed.there is a small notice behind the box stating that this device does not support tv out mode anymore

can u please send a photo to prove your point .. we would post it in a separate post This is not fair at all !

i bought it six months ago at 19.5k,,,
its so sad that now its price is 13k,,,

if you dont belive me just call any nokia priority dealer and confirm it or better go to the shop and check out the box yourself.
nokia has silently removed the tv out feature,you can also visit nokia india website and check the specs there is no mention of tv out and also check whats in the box at end of specification to see what is there in the box.
i never talk pointless things.

nokia 5800 price this time ?

yes its true what nice said.nokia have removed many things from the box like extra stylus,pouch,stand,tv out cable. Even TV out feature seems to have been removed.
Check out at teh nokia site page for 5800. They seem to be missing those accessories. Better grab it now before they snatch away the battery ha ha ha . link http://www.nokia.co.in/find-products/products/nokia-5800-xpressmusic/specifications

I really value your comments but need some proof so that , We can post about it separately so that the entire FoneArena user base benefits Hope you understand and dont mistake me

When do you plan to update your price list? Its still showing the price of nokia 5800 to be Rs 16500. And what is the status of price cut for other models of Nokia? Should one expect any?

we are working on it . there are many more phones getting a price cut . We are just waiting for all the new prices.

ok fine krish i will upload the pics,but can you tell me how to uplaod the pic i mean where should i upload it

please email me varun@fonearena.com

hey guys check it out at the official site page. It says clearly as Nice said things from the box like extra stylus,pouch,stand,tv out cable. Even TV out feature has been removed

http://www.nokia.co.in/find-products/products/nokia-5800-xpressmusic/specifications

It details what u get with the package. And Nice is totally right about the info he has provided

I want to buy nokia 5800. Is there any real change in the contents of the box. Is there no tv out facility. Please tell me. Thank you.

thts sad..the price is going down…i mean for people who intend to buy its good…but for those who bought by paying 21000 on the launch day its a kick on the butt ;-0
even though some of the things have been taken away from the box still its so sad. And moreover my phone went for servicing like 7 times since purchase. so we’ve got very less time together. As i type this, my phone is in some nokia office at delhi while iam 3000kms away in a place hoping to see it on 17th september if nokia care people r right….sad isnt it ???

ok varun i have send the pics please check your mail

what happened to the firmware update that was due with kinetic scrolling and new homescreen any news on that.

an update for 5800 will be rolled out in october

Think Hatke… this very very excited news for me, b’coz some days before i going to buy E71. But right now i m buying Nokia 5800. but tell me someone- How is clearity of camera?

seems like tv-out feature and cable was removed every where in the world.i have double checked nokia usa and uk website,they also removed this feature.

Hi Varun,

Since now you have information, can you please confirm if there is any real change in the contents of the Nokia 5800 box.

I also want to buy Nokia 5800.Please let me know.

Thanks
Naresh

i think that’s why nokia didn’t launched 5530&5230 into d market ….first they wanted to clear 5800……….. can anyone tell me when 5530 will be avaliable……….

Hi Friends …

current price is Rs 13781

Hi do u mean update 30.0.011 ?? i think its already available at the Nokia site. Looks like more of a performance update http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update#

click on the link posted above and search for the phone and updates currently available

Guys just need your inputs… is the Samsung star 3g a better bet than 5800. I do know star 3g has no Wi-fi and a 8GB card included. but if compared they have a cost diff of about 3k… but samsung star 3g looks better and has a wider screen. I find 5800 has a Very narrow screen and mars a good browsing expirence. awaiting ur thoughts

U all knw somthing that nokia has removed the t.v out feature in new 13.5 k 5800. Its true.dnt b fool of price cut.

Guys, cool down.

TV out feature should not be a deal breaker, i think personally.

IF they reduce the price by 2000 to 3000, and just removed the TV out, and extra contents like stylus, or stand, i think its still a great deal because hardly anyone is going to use stylus or stand or such extra things, which are anyways not equal to 2000-3000.

As far as they have not removed major features like GPS or wifi, this price cut should be welcome.

Also, are they still including the 8gb SD card in box?

This price cut is not reflected in Mumbai yet.

Checked with Nokia Priority Showroom and ALFA.

If you are a fellow mumbaikar and u got this fone at the above stated price do us all a favour and tell where u got it from!!

i think nokia 5800 is better than star 3g .. it has more features like wi fi ,gps, and d sound and picture quality is better in 5800 and u also get 8 gb s.d card with d box ……and now with d price cut its d best deal ….. browsing is also good in 5800 nothing less than star 3g

if you are in mumbai then there is no way you can buy it at 13.5k due to 12.5%vat there so it will cost you 14.7k instead.so even if there is price cut also it will cost you 14.7k

Is it for all india?

Can any one tell me what is TV mode is all abt??? & Why it is used? & wer?

@Mubeen,

The TV out mode is just if you want to view your photos or videos on a TV screen. Its not a big deal.

Guys am planning to get this by october…can someone tell me if the new price cut version has any changes in the phone’s orientation?I mean does it still have the horizontal and vertical orientation when rotated?

@Ram,
I don’t think they would remove that feature. But precisely i don’t know. But i am sure, that will still be there as that is a feature for most of the touchscreen phone and they would not remove it to remain in competition.

@Hary

Thanks a lot for your reply Hary. Would you suggest me any other phone in this price range? Kindly notice it’s would and not could!![:)]

i went to planet m and they said that aldou u dnt get a cable, but u can use the feature if u buy a cable…is it true? nd r we gettin sennheiser headfones??

Hi vishal

Yes we are gettin sennheiser headphones with the phone. I think its only at Univercell outlets and not other shops.

I am just a bit paranoid of how only Univercell stores can include the Senhiuser and no one else ?

is dere any good mobile in d range of 6 to 8k

how good is that sennheiser headset compared to the nokia headset

I bought the 5800 at Reliance Digital for 13.7K.. Got the Seinnheiser headphones.. they are wayyy better than the Nokia headphones.

Reducing d features z a damn terrible thing.Since it was supposed 2 B a feature rich fone reducing d features a certainly a foolish thing 2 do.But as v see many competative devices in market D price cut wz definite…

the nokia 5800 xpress music is it worth buying coz i wanna use it for atleast 3-4 years and may of ma friends r tellin dat it is not gud it gets spoilt v fast it hang a lot.someone pls tell me wheather buying nokia 5800 xpress music is good or will it become a mess.

ausam dude now time to grab………………

can we take pictures from the front camera in the new version?

just got my hands on this phone(5800).. priced at Rs 15046/- at planet m(mumbai)( there is 12.5% service tax……) ….. well i know i paid a lot more … but i was not sure about this phone ….. so i didnt want to take risk .. so i went for a 2 yr warranty…+++++ the theft insurance which it covered for a yr. the phone is simply awsome… but being the touch screen u never know if any problems arise after few months…. i dont regret that it does not have a tv feature … but sure it a KILLER phone

is the current price same for all mumbai
means 13781

hey can any 1 tell me is nokia gona stop it’s production..???
if not y price cut?
who’ll buy 5530 @ Rs14000/-?
please tell want 2 buy in december………

wait till december .. you will most likely see 5800 navigation edition, 5530 and 5230 in the market

Hi ashish,

did u get 8gb memeory card as well with ur 15.046 buy.

i think the memory card (8gb) was earlier available (before price cut)

yeah himanshu.. 8gb card was there with it … but lately i also got to know the shortcomings of having a small connectivity cable… its hardly 5 inches…. and so the phone is hanging … as i dont use a lappy… i guess nokia is also hit by recession

can you tell me what is the latest price of nokia 5800 & nokia 5230.
Also, i think major difference between these two pones are just camara & Wi-fi.

Nice phone
sorry 2 say nt 4 me
so costly

Hey Friends,

Can anyone tell wat is the price of 5800 in Mumbai, i checked in mobile stores & as per them its 14919.

hai

Bro,

Bought this fone last week @ 13700 from Planet M. Guess what, the package didnt have any TV out cable, Pouch and Stand. Managed to get a pouch, stand and TV out cable from a duty paid shop at bargain price. The surprise awaits………….. When i connected the TV out cable to the TV, it WORKS!!!

Dnt believe me?? Take a TV out cable from any of ur friends who have the old 5800 set and try..

According to forums nokia, “From what I’ve understood is that the removal of the tv-out (and the TV-out cable) in some Nokia phones was a temporary issue caused by a lack in the supply of the necessary components.”

“only a limited number of device models Nokia 6220 classic, Nokia 3600 slide, Nokia 6500 slide, Nokia 7610 Supernova, Nokia 7310 Supernova and Nokia 5800 were affected by the component shortage for a short time period.”

plz suggest me a cellphone that would cost around 10k-14k

What is price in Goa and where it is available?

Thanks

Hey Friends,

What is the latest price of Nokia 5800 in mumbai? and Where to buy to get good deal?

Should I wait more to buy the nokia 5800 for the prices to fall down

Yeh, You must wait till gets to 5K.

Comb the Market my friend.

Thank you for your suggestion.

please Keep it with you.

Good Cost for a Amazing phone.. However i wouldnt suggest u to wait much coz as of now they provide free sennheiser pmx60 headset .. combined with 8gb card .. over all worth the money [13500]… I dnt trust nokia they might just stop the production.. Since they are well know for launching phone in bulk .. lol

Thank you my friend for your valuable reply

yes

Why did they remove the TV out functionality?? Is the original model still available?

prices seem to be lowered to 2k within 1 month

Is this a right time to go for 5800? coz i heard even after the firmware upgrade the touch screen hasnt improved much.

but then again, will it be worth it to wait for the X6?
