How are the bundled ear phones ? I don't plan to invest on additional ones.

The speakers are mono, is that apparent while playing any song / calls ?

Is a document viewer preinstalled like the 5800 ? If NO, Is it a pain to install it manually ?
 
Use Gadgetshieldz full body protection for 380 Rs

Or

Scratchgard Invisible Shield Rs.250/-

Use Soundmagic PL 11 - Ultimate machine with amazing bass

You can pay for Gadgetshieldz online with your Credit/Debit card.Do note that the price is in dollars. Shipping is free as they have an office in Chennai. Search for Gadgetshieldz review here on TE. Someone has posted a 15% off code for the skin.

Scratchgard is available on ebay.

The bundled earhphones are pretty basic,not the in-ear sorts. Sound quality through them is passable. However it does improve quite a lot once you use decent headphones. I have a Senn. HD202s,PL-11s and Sony MDR-EX35LP. Tried them all and the phone sounds brilliant with all of them. I have been using a lot of SE phones for the past 4 years,mostly the Walkman series and I feel the Nokia sounds as good as them if not better. If you are the sort who listens to ghazals and sad songs,mostly vocal then the Nokia sounds a bit better. It has a bit extra clarity to it than the SEs.

Sound through the loudspeaker isnt that good. Doesnt sound as clear. Call quality is decent though.

From what I have heard and read in reviews,Philips sounds more balanced than the above mentioned earphones,all of which are quite bassy.:P Still it doesnt get any bassier than a SE Walkman+ PL11s. Heaven for headbangers.:rofl:

sounds like a pretty good news :bleh:

we would have been in a great disaster god forbid u provided us some TIMELY NEWS :rofl: :rofl:
 
hahhaha in 1 month ,my phone is out from market , i am feeling special now :ohyeah:,

dont know about 5233 but my 5230 is worth every paise i spent on this :clap:
 
Went to Chroma today and had an opportunity to check the phone, here it is selling for Rs8999+Philips Headphones worth Rs1499 free

My Impressions:

Touch Screen response is as good as the iphone or any other capacitive phone (can't believe this is a resistive screen).

Didn't like the double touch part, is there a way to turn it off ?

The video quality is brilliant and still camera is decent too

In short, <3 the phone
 
I dont know about iphone touch vs 5230 touch,BTW never used an iphone. :ashamed:

But,

The double touch is annoying,not able to turn it off.

Camera is very much average,my 2 megapixel moto a810,gave better shots. :no:

But in ideal conditions,of bright sunshine the photos are great.

TIP:

When in perfect sunshine,dont take instant photos,wait for 2 secs,auto color correction takes place and end result is better than that instant pic.

My experience :tongue:
