Gallery Face-Off: Nokia 5530 XpressMusic vs 5800 vs iPod Touch

The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is one of the smallest, more affordable, less feature-packed, touchscreen phone to come from Nokia lately. Yet, it’s still a convenient and efficient device to own and use, and despite its lack of GPS and 3G, it still packs WiFi, a great screen, a 4Mb memory card, a 3.5mm headset plug, a nice 2.9″ touchscreen, and is compatible with the Ovi Store so you can fill it up with as many free or paid applications as you want.
