posted in Apple News, Nokia News |

Phrases like iPhone killer have become meaningless when discussing possible rivals for the Apple marvel, but how does the Nokia 5800 XpressMedia fare head to head spec for spec with its more fancied rival - we decided to take a look.

Nokia 5800 XpressMedia vs Apple iPhone

First the Nokia 5800 XpressMedia

• 3.2-inch touchscreen display
• 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus
• Quad-band (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) GSM/EDGE radio
• 3G UMTS/HSDPA
• Bluetooth 2.0
• WiFi
• GPS
• 3.5mm headphone jack
• TV-out port
• 140MB on-board storage
• 111 x 52 x 14.5 mm
• 104g

Now the Apple iPhone responds

• 3.5-inch touchscreen display
• 2.0 megapixel camera (no autofocus)
• Quad-band (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) GSM/EDGE radio
• no 3G UMTS/HSDPA
• Bluetooth 2.0
• WiFi
• no GPS
• proprietary headphone jack
• proprietary TV-out port

It’s pretty tight the Nokia has given Apple a run for its money in the specifications department, but will its usability be any match for eveyone’s favourite mobile browser?

    When will all these cell phone companies will learn from Apple that onboard memory capacity is a very importatn feature.

    Nokia still fall’s on its face in that regards. Samsung has cought on to this idea with I900 Omnia.

    It saddens me to say that I might have to move away from Nokia after using many of there phones for past 16 yeras.

    Noika learn fast from Apple or face more deffection.
