Other things aside, Nokia cameras seem really disappointing. And this one is only 2 MP whereas competing phones not only have min. 3 MP but are of much much better quality. I’d want to look at sample pics before even considering this phone… and considering other Nokia models, I am not optimistic…

Nokia and value-for-money. Do they go hand in hand ?

Symbian ^1 IS NOT S40. Symbian^1 is S60v5 (think 5800XM etc).
Though screen size is small resolution is same as 5800XM and the rest.
@Keshav Jha
It’s not S40. It’s S60v5.
@ vinay
greater the mAH longer the battery power i.e., more talk time and standby….
If I know Nokia well, mostly they will pack this with a 1050mAH or 1200mAH (if lucky) battery only….

No this phone has NO 3G, let alone HSDPA/HSUPA..
No this phone is NOT using s40, but s60 fifth edition or symbian^1
vinay August 25, 2010 at 12:19 am
whats the meaning of 1800mAh and 1050 mAh in battery quality??? anybody plz..
Keshav Jha August 24, 2010 at 11:55 pm
3G supported. Then it is one of the best for choice now. I like S40 for it’s good speed & easy to use.

7000+ taxes!
Nilesh Patel August 24, 2010 at 10:22 pm
! more piece of brick from Nokia, i think nokia is desperate to regain its numero uno position, but with so many companies coming out with so many models and cheaper option and better battery life and features, i dont think Nokia is gonna survive for long, I was a avid nokia fan and user and had many models the last being E-90 3 years back, but have now shifted to Apple and have pledged to use apple for the rest of my life, i know like me not everyone has the luxury of owing one, But i think Nokia time is over, if they dont come up with something amazing fast they gonna lose the market fast.
Avishek Ghosh August 24, 2010 at 10:12 pm
It has 3G with hsdpa 10mbps & hsupa 2mbps….
This phone has good featureS within a affordable price range…
But the main drawback is(as per my opinion)..it has old & outdated symbian s40 & no GPS…..
Jai August 24, 2010 at 10:05 pm
Mast phone hai bhai 5233 is bad phone but 5250 nice phone. 3g ki koi jarurat nahi hai
Kon mai ka lal bsnl ka 3g lekar roj video call karta hai.
rajiev August 24, 2010 at 8:14 pm

zareef August 24, 2010 at 7:55 pm
