Hi folks,

I am planning to buy nokia 5233,
I need some inputs from 5233 users about it pros & cons.

Kindly pitch in and provide me your valuable comments that will facilitate my decision whether to purchase it or not?

In case you have any other recommendation for the phone on similar lines to nokia 5233 kindly mention that too.

Expecting a lot from you GUYS!

1st post.. You really need a help

Go with 5230..

Way better then 5233.

Hey Praks,

Thanks for replying to my 1st post , you will be always special to me

Can you tell me , why you have suggested me 5230, and not 5233,

Also I have read somewhere that 5230 is being replaced by 5233, is it true??

Please do reply.

5230 is 3G while 5233 is not....there is NO difference at all besides that.
5230 shud be available for 7799 and 5233 for 6799

5230 is not at all replaced.

You can have maps working with just GPS of 5230, while 5233 needs active GPRS always.

Is there any post on this site which can help me more on this?
