Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Unlocked Phone - My Review
If you are looking for phone that has all of the essentials for a good price, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Unlocked Phone is your best bet! Think about it, where can you can find a $300 that has all of the functions that this phone has - 3.2 camera, touchscreen, even more customizable than iPhone, external memory, and those are just to name a few.
As for the touchscreen, I think it boils down to personal taste. I never owned an iPhone. As for the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Unlocked Phone, its touchscreen is very responsive. After grabbing it and getting used to it, I borrowed a friend's iTouch and I must say that the Nokia 5800 is the winner!
You may argue that it's a resistive screen, BUT from my experience, it's very responsive and that's all that matters as far as touch screens are concerned. Again, this boils down to personal taste.
The Good Stuff
- This phone is starting to have more apps compatible with it. You just have to know where to find it for FREE!
- The macro of the camera is fantastic!
- I got the GPS navigation if this phone for turn by turn direction, and I must say that it's a dream come true. Gone are the days that you will be lost for directions. PLUS with the voice direction thing, this gadget is elevated to the ranks of real GPS!
- The speakers of the phone are also awesome. It's really loud and the quality is just as good when you use and plug in the ear pieces.
- Another thing I love about the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Unlocked Phone is the cable that you can plug into the TV. I love converting videos and all I have to do is plug the phone into the TV and viola! It's as easy as pie.
- The screen of this phone is astoundingly clear as well. I would say it's one of the best I have ever seen.
The Not Too Good BUT Not Too Bad Side
- The camera - as for that one, I'm not sure. Sometimes, it takes excellent pictures. Sometimes it sucks BIG TIME. When there is too much light, it doesn't work like I want it to. When there is no light, the same thing can be said.
- For other people, it may be OK BUT this phone is finger print magnet! Only the back of the phone is matte. The rest of the mobile phone will have your finger prints all over it.
- As for the battery life, it's definitely not the best. BUT it's NOT the worst. Decent enough I would say.
