@raj_in Go for the 5800 XpressMusic. Apart from the camera resolution it pawns the Samsung in every other aspect.

@v4u_luv2004 why do you randomly use upper case and lower case characters in your posts. You know it would be easier if you just capitalize the first character in the sentence and then type the rest in small. :)

5800 is better than f480 in every aspect xcept cam bcoz it has only 3.2 while f480 has 5mp..
3.2 wil do for ur needs and 1 more thing 5800 is expensive then f480..

It shud cost Rs 3500 more than the F480

i ws the pics frm both the cams
nokia is ok 2 good in sunlight but its bad may i b brave & say very bad in night or low light
wher the samsung is far better

I think nokia shud really have sealed the deal wit a 5mp & better flash even if it wud hav cost Rs 2000 mor

Sad it has only 3x zoom
Forget about the zoom, it's digital. Unless some phone has optical zoom don't ever bother using it. You are better off just capturing the image as it is and then zooming it on your PC as that is what the digital zoom does. At least in the former case you'll end up with a better quality image.

Zoom in phones is of no use rather it screws up the image. So it is better to take image at max resolution and then photoshoping it to ones liking...!!
v4u_luv2004
Dec 7, 2008 at 2:07 PM
agreed vth wat masterminds said zoom really screws up d images its better to take pictures at max resolution then fiddle it vth photoshop or for that part Paint.NET is a vry gud alternative...
I dont thnk zoom will b of any use until unless u decide to make sum mms ;):D

The daylight pics will be the same. However since the flash is more powerful night shots will be better. The video recording will also be much better.

& hoping the music is better & louder than f480 & n73m since its a music phone

and the all imp touch has 2 b better than the f480

Yep, the speakers of the 5800 are among the best (perhaps the best) in mobiles yet. Also teh F480 doesn't sport WM but some crappy proprietary Samsung OS. Symbian OS9.4 is way better than that.

u can definitely expect a better camera in 5800 xm but still i'll rate n73's cam a slightly better than this after comparing d images take frm both d cell, i really loved my n73's cam it was awesome n even in low light it produces good image but 5800 can surely rule out n73 in video recording section as it captures videos in 4 modes n at higher resolutions n thr's 4x zoom too!

video recording modes are :

1. TV High Quality [640 x 480 @ 30fps]
2. Widescreen Quality [640 x 352 @ 30 fps]
3. Normal Quality [320 x 240 @ 15/30 fps]
4. Sharing Quality [176 x 144 @ 15 fps]



* n remember it has dual led flash so it will surely outperform n73
aur bhai saath mein u r gettin 8gb card also so wat r u waiting for book one for urself;)
n forget abt d samsung touchwiz its a dumb fone infront of 5800 XM
oh i forgot to mention u'll get one year contract to download unlimited music
from nokia music store for freeeeeeee n no catch here at all!!!

v4u_luv2004
Dec 7, 2008 at 10:58 PM

N95-8GB is better then N82..
N82 has smaller screen,
i think N82 comes with a 2GB card while N95 has 8Gb built in..
When it comes to cam N82 beats N95-8gb bcoz of XENON flash..

In my view getting N85 is good deal then N95-8gb....

Yes u r right just wait n watch n i thnk N95-8GB is really vry good
n even N82 is equally good n u can expand memory upto 8gb so no problem thr
n also N82 packs in sum good features but i'll prefer N95-8GB over N82
btwn if u r interested in buying 2nd hand N82 then do chck BAZAAR section sum1 is selling for around 13-14k ;)

"The good thing I Like about 5800 is its Display ,got 16 M colors,
and I ve heard that 5800 battery is better then Nokia 95.

Where as in cam department with carl zeiss lens regarded the best and its been known that the performance of cam in dim light is a problem with every cam but with Nokia 5800 with dual led flash i think it will better then any other phone.

Next about price i think F480 cost around 21K when launched and 5800 will cost around 23K not a big diff infact its latest with many more new features ....

So currently if i will go for new handsets its no doubt will be 5800

^^whats the price

But My Question is this what about the samsung F480 that's not a comparetive device with nokia 5800 so why should we compare with that phone. I mean no doubt nokia 5800 is much better for samsung F480.
