My Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic

I was waiting for this phone for last four months. Finally I bought it on Saturday. Now that I used it for three days, I can write a review. My earlier phone N72 was great. I miss that phone. I exchanged it for this mobile. Though this mobile is much better than N72, I still miss that phone. May be the moments I captured with that phone are priceless. Lets not drift to this. This review is my frank opinion as an owner and end user. I am not paid for this review at all. :angel:

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

I opened the box and there was the beauty. The back cover is not as good as other Nokia mobiles. It’s difficult to remove and insert the battery. At least for the first time. Sliding cover would have been great. When I switched it on, It started fast. Faster than other Nokia mobiles with 1GB+ memory card. There are only three buttons on front. Receive, Reject and the white one for menu. No more buttons on front. Coool…

The next step was to insert SIM and memory card. Both can be inserted easily via slots provided on side. One thing I didn’t understood. Why there was need to provide a side slot for SIM?? This Sim cannot be removed without opening the back cover. So whats the use of the side slot? It’s better and safe within the mobile. About the memory card, It’s 8GB. More than sufficient for me. It already comes loaded with Hindi and English soundtracks. A special album “Connections” by A.R.Rehman composed just for this phone. But not a good one. Other songs provided are really good. About 200+ tracks. Continue reading →

I have gone mad

I said that. There is nothing great doing so. After reading my blog it was obvious to you. Today my mobile stopped working. That is what made me crazy. These small little gadgets have made our life simple and very simple. When they stop working our life becomes trouble. It is difficult to live without this pieces of plastic.(Oops!! Current mobiles don’t use plastics).

Similar thing happens when my PC stops working. I can stay without mobile but without PC is next to impossible. There were times when I lived completely away from PC. Nothing doing.. Just peace of mind. When I return and start my work back, I come to know how much I missed. How much I missed my PC. Mind you. It’s not all about porno stuff. I stay away from such stuff. Watching current English films is more than sufficient and fills the need for porno.

Back to my mobile. I own a one and half year old N72. For this 18+(ahem ahem..) months there was no complain. Just today morning when I was trying to insert the earphone something happened. I think that was the time. Later when I was at site office I plugged the earphone and when I removed it my mobile was in love with those. He didn’t want the earphones to be separated from itself. The sign of plugged earphone on screen is stuck and I am still trying to remove it. Because of that I am unable to take any calls without earphone. Continue reading →

Nokia 888 concept phone

Am I mobile addict? You may be thinking of this question as this is second post in technology which falls in mobile technology. Not really. But these small pieces of plastic or fiber or whichever material they are made up of make our life a lot easy. We have to keep up with them. So this is another post. Last week I received an e-mail regarding this phone. And I was really surprised with the concept. It is just mind blowing.

So far you have a certain shape of mobile set in your mind. Mobile phone means it will have a screen and on backside a cover with battery to change. There will be buttons from 0-9 and some extra. Some mobile may have music related buttons. A port to connect to PC or laptop and a charger. Isn’t it? Now change your mind. Here comes a phone which will shatter the traditional image of mobile phones. Here is Nokia 888.
