>Nokia Photos Dessert

>Another filler post for today cause today is Sunday :D …….but tomorrow is Monday…. :( …always feel like not enough for the weekend….sigh….

Monday somehow isn’t really that bad…..when I think of something could be done just like last month. A simple lunch break could actually brighten up my day…or maybe week ^____^. Amie, Fenny and I went to one of the dessert stall located at LG of MidValley Megamall which is just opposite of Nyonya Colors.

I had this choice of flavor…and it’s taken by Nokia 5800…

It was quite tasty…good….if only I can taste more of the durian…hehe

While having our dessert, we did camwhore a bit with our phones’ camera. Amie swings out her Nokia E66 and snap this for me….

Photobucket

and this as well which I posed with my 5800 and Amie and Fenny as well….LOLZ!!!

I think the photo quality of Nokia E66 is better than 5800…sigh…all thanks to Nokia… =____+

>Posing Tube

>As if you noticed, I did mentioned the word “Tube” several times in the last 2 posts. What is this Tube? Why is it “Tube” but not others?

Tube is a code name given to Nokia 5800 XpressMusic way before it launched in any part of the world. If my understanding is correct, it’s because, it’s just like a TV tube when you’re watching a movie via it with the stand supporting it giving you a relax and sensation feel for your movie experience. So that’s all about tube.

Now, back to some related matters here, as you can read the title, posing…what else right….^___^ hope you guys enjoy and I do really enjoy taking photo of it and of course with it….hehe

>Nokia 5800 XpressMusic In-Depth

>There’s always imperfections in every product/gadgets, so most important thing that we should bear in mind is that, know the pros and cons before purchasing it, and if only you can live with it, then what else should have bother you?

Before I got this phone, I’ve read enough anything related to it, be it good or bad, I want to know everything about it. First, there’s reported that the hearing earpiece is having problem where the volume will go soft back and forth. Then the built quality, some said that there’s light leakage at the top corner, due to it’s plastic built. Some software/firmware problem also being reported.

Be it firmware/software, it all can be corrected by Nokia, so no worries. If it’s a hardware problem, just send it back to Nokia Care Center and they’ll fix it in no time. So, it’s still fixable… ^____^ don’t keep on complaining coz you should know things well before you purchase it. I chose to get over minor problems and live with it and hence I’m a happy owner here….I’m loving it!

There are also complaints on the camera pics and video quality. The quality is horrible when it’s taken indoor under low light condition. But it looks normal when taken under bright day sunlight. So people should know what to expect…but I still believe that this can be improve by fixing by firmware. Lets wait and see….

It’s a 3.5G (HSDPA) phone, so a front camera is a must. But this does not applies to Iphone 3G (Sad CAN!). A proximity sensor is placed next to the front camera. It’s use to dim the screen when we put the phone next to our ear when talking over the phone so that we won’t accidentally hit any button unnecessary. Or we can use it to silence any incoming calls by just turning the screen over facing the base surface. The use of proximity sensor is very long lasting due to it detects the target presence without the object touching on it and it doesn’t has any mechanical parts.

Just located at the bottom of the front camera, it’s a quick launch media touch. By tapping on it, it will drop down a list of multimedia shortcuts such as Music Player, Photo Gallery, Video Center, Sharing Online and Web Browsing. It’s kinda sweet to have it there….

The next good to have feature is the 3.5mm jack. It’s really convenient for any music lover around. They can use not only proprietary headset but any commercial to high-end headset from others with a 3.5mm (Standard Jack) can be paired with it. Isn’t it a good one?

Now the SIM card and Memory card can be slot-in without having to open the back cover. It’s located at the side of the phone with 2 doors to access to each. Now the memory card is hot swappable. But one not so good thing is that, whenever you want to remove the SIM card, you still need to remove the back cover as well as the battery and with the aid of the pen stylus to push it out. Lucky I’m not those who love to use more than one SIM Card with only one phone option. LOL!!!

DSC09554.jpg

The designed of the stereo speaker is so attractive(at least to me) and I do think that it’s so damn nice and sexy. The stereo sound output is pretty good and it’s loud enough even it’s not yet reaching full bar, at least a lot better than my previous first generation Walkman phone from Sony Ericsson.

DSC09562.jpg

My conclusion is very simple. If you’re planning to get any phone, not just this ‘TUBE’, do your homework, study it kaw-kaw….make up your mind…and you should be able to have the answer in the end of the day. To me, this phone is indeed very sweet to own one…still have doubt? Go and try one in any Nokia Concept stores or borrow from your friends. I then doubt you can resist it….. ^_____^”‘

>Unboxing of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

>On the 10th January 2009, I’d decided to bring home my long desired gadget from Nokia. It’s their first full touch-screen mobile phone in the series, and they chose to start off with XpressMusic phone which is targeting at the mid-range market.

By accommodating with resistive touch screen and tactile/haptic feedback which brings even more fun when you’re typing on it. There are various input method: stylus, plectrum and finger touch support for text input and UI control (alphanumeric keypad, full and mini qwerty keyboard, handwriting recognition).

WIFI and A-GPS are those few features that attract people who loves to have everything in one piece of gadget. (I’m one of them)

With the RRP started off at RM1499 which is the lowest price announced across the globe so far, who’s gonna hesitate to get this baby home? ^____^

It launched in Malaysia on the day before I bought it. The reason why I bought it in a rush was due to the headset that they gave it out for FREE for those who pre-ordered from Nokia.

I really love the joy of un-boxing new toys/gadgets/(you name it as long as it’s new)

DSC01865.jpg

The designed of the box is the same as some previous XpressMusic models. It even can’t beat my last Sony Ericsson W800i packaging. But who cares right?

DSC01867.jpg

In others region, the XpressMusic phone came together with Music Store services (just like iTunes) which is valid for 1 year(if I’m not mistaken). But in our region, for instance Malaysia, does not carry this services, hence they packed in a free 1000 songs voucher where you can download from www.bimbit.com. I myself haven’t gone through the songs download, coz I don’t think that I’m gonna need it either way…. ^__^”‘

Features packed not only meant in the phone only, but also in the box package as well. Myself haven’t seen this quite a while from Nokia. It’s full of must have accessories packaged together. There’s USB data cable, A/V out cable, extra stylus, rubberish like pouch, phone stand, quick charger, music headset, stylus plectrum in wrist strap, 8GB microSDHC, user guide and a mini DVD. Now, tell me, what else is missing??? The answer should be enough….^___^

My first time ever connected with Symbian Phone, the experience on it is pretty well going. The touch experience was very responsive, a way lot better than many others brand. I can use my finger(not restricted to finger nails only like most of them do), stylus plectrum (most convenient input device as it was hang on the wrist strap) and the pen stylus (I only use it once in a while).

The size of it is just so sweet feeling on my palm, being not too wide so that i can operate it with just one handed at most of the time. But just do bear in mind that touch screen phone is always finger prints magnet. You’ll probably find me wiping the phone very frequently. ^___^

Having a crystal clear 3.2″ wide screen with nHD (640 x 360)resolution is absolutely a plus plus/ a gift. it’s very eye catchy and you’re not going to deny it. Of course, don’t compare it with Iphone, coz the pricing is so much different. With this pricing from Nokia packed with all the features you are enjoying from it, I’m going to pass Iphone this round.
