I still suggest for Nokia 5800xm, due to variety of CFW's, great support from forums. You wont find anything special regarding X6 as the userbase is less and offcourse no one NOW would buy it when symbian^3 is in pipeline.

sorry haven't read the thread, your budget etc..but as per the comments to buy X6, i still suggest for 5800xm or wait for S^3.

Personally, there is no point in going for Android with cheaper handsets (bad conf). You should have a minimum budget of 20k+ to buy an Android to get the fullest.

Offcourse, if you're looking for an Android phone then there is no need to compare with S60. Try comparing other Android phones in the same segment.

Likewise, you don't need BIG budget to try s60. As far as I know, S60 5th Ed is the limitation with capacitive screen. Symbian^3 enables multi-touch fully. So, I recommend the Nokia 5800 to save some money. It's just personal opinion.

a) 90% of posters have 5800XM
b) X6, 5530 and 5230 are relatively new phones compared to 5800XM
c) these new models are not really interesting so less users, less support.
d) not worth the price, and not enough upgrade for 5800XM.
e) capacitive screen support multi touch but s60v5 OS does not support pinch zooming its currently only supported by S^3 os -as per the feedback.

Check out regarding the phone responsiveness and multi-touch :shock: the responsiveness should be better but it's :D

X6 8GB version is for 14k and not 16GB version...

5800 is used by lots of forum members...but I think the count is decreasing day by day:razz:

got a 5800xpressmusic navigation edition yesterday for Dhs 895( Rs 11.1 k) from dubai
but i got a cheap headset with that phone....
thank u sujoyp and neerajvohra for the suggestions and help
i considered x6 first which was also pretty cheap (Dhs 1025)( 13k) here
but i did not like the build quality of that phone.the finishing of the case was utterly pathetic. but it was a steal price for a phone with 5mp cam

Also is there any app by which we can unlock the screen without using the switch present at the side of the phone

yes. it is helpful in keeping the scratches away from display (especially if you use fingernails). And please peel off that screen protector ASAP. most part of the display will not be visible

default screen protector is a really a PITA
i brought a screen protector from a local shop here and the shopkeeper itself applied it on the phone.........but i think that guy just ****ed it up:-x....now i can see bubbles on the side and bottom of the damn screen.....i don't wanna a remove it myself and reapply it as i think that may make it look more worse......:sad:.is there any way i can remove the bubbles
i really wish the phone phone had a scratch resistant screen:lol:
also is it necessary to use a pouch after applying the screen protector
