The iphone is losing to NOKIA by uncountable points. The 5800 has better apps. and higher quality of cameras ( 5800 has video cam and normal cam and secondary cam for video call and take pics and can video record, iphone doesn’t) and higher megapixel and resolution. How many models of apple phones u see? Three. Nokia? Thousands. 5800 also has differents camera modes and flash for video recording and pics. With the stylus u don’t need to wipe the screen all the time like the lousy iphone. 5800 also beats all the lg,blackberry,sony ericson,samsung phones, etc……… common sense, DUH!!!!! And u can always put a screen protector ,hello!? And 5800 has better voice quality. Nokia has to-do-list , voice recording, removable battery and longer battery life than the iphone. If the iphone battery starts to lose charge u can’t change. I know cuz i have used the newest iphone and i replaced it with the nokia 5800 xpressmusic. Nokia is the only pro in phones and thats a fact!!!!!

No offense, but the iPhone hardly set the technological or functional stage for the industry. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a decent phone, but even with apps, it’s functionality is lacking (unless you jailbreak the phone) – keep in mind this is one of the only phones on the market that can’t properly multi-task, and I consider that far more relevant than some mostly gimmicky multi-touch (which I’ve only found useful for a slightly faster way to zoom webpages). Sure, the features are there, but the UI, while easy to use, is oversimplified (like most of Apple’s products). For a power user like me, that makes the iPhone undesirable at best.

On a another note, in future comparisons I HIGHLY recommend you list the non-contract price for phones. Subsidized prices are misleading and do not reflect the actual monetary value of the phone.

@J: “Plagued”? Last I checked, the ability for the phone to multi-task was considered a plus, not a con. Fanboyism at it’s best, the iPhone is one of the only phones on the market incapable of proper multi-tasking.

Personally I’ll be grabbing the 5800. Besides, I hate capacitive screens. A *well-made* resistive is more broadly useful and nearly as sensitive.

Just to put things into perspective, apples are designed to be user friendly and some applications automatically shut down, typical of mac software which i think is wonderful!!!

But in regards to a nokia, if you send a text, then play a game, while listening to music, then you hit end and close the game and open a web page via wifi… You have accessed 5 different programs and are drawing resources from your phone. This has plagued all windows mobile and symbian (nokia is latter) Mobile os’ since day one… however on their latest os they made it so simple to close running apps its a joke.

So for the jokers saying the phone runs slow, and sometimes stops, i highly suggest to you that you read instruction manuals sent with them that direct you to close applications when finished with them. That will make your phone run like a champ

5800 is great. Nice price. Great solid features. But UGHH! no autocorrect feature when making sms messages.
