Nokia 5230 vs Samsung Corby

[singhabhimanyu]

My budget is Rs 10K and, silly as i sound, i wish to own a touchscreen mobile phone. Can somebody compare Nokia5230 and samsung corby for me pls.. i mean based on ur personal experience.

i) Music quality?
ii) Camera?
iii) .. operable without stylus?
iv) battery life?
v) wi-fi .. 3G thing?
etc etc..

.. is thr any other model (within 10K) i've missed out?

Go for nokia E63 in the same budget u will fin every thing


or the 5230 corby sucks bigtime !!

I have used both phones, if u have decided to take one then .. some points to ponder about these phones :

1. Camera quality is good in nokia
2. looks are far better in case of corby or in case Samsung phones
3. we can operate both phones without stylus too.
4. Nokia is always sluggish to respond (except E series i own E 51 :p)
5. E63 is also not bad thing to have
6. 3G's cost mm I think more than normal one
7. No wifi in nokia

I had earlier googled and was kinda scared to see numerous sites with mobile phone reviews. tht wud have been too much info to make me mad. gsmarena seems gud n reliable. Thanks for referring. Thank you, gathwala and dreamer, for ur views.

I think i'll wait for Nokia 5235. any idea when will it be launched in india? it's on their official website but it seems thr's none in stores. read somewhere nokia had planned end of Q1 with price in b/w 9K-10k. dunno..

Abhimanyu bhai agar sari facilities 1 phone mein chahiye to budget 2k tak increase karo. Na 5230 aur na hi corby lo. Buy nokia 5800 xpressmusic. Symbian operating system 9.4 s60v5, 3.2 mp camera, hsdpa 3.6 mbps 3G speed, wifi, fully touch screen. Dnt buy e63 if u want high speed internet. Bhai sasta kharidega to pachhtayega. Dnt wait for 5235. It will be same as 5230. And if u dnt want touch screen then go for nokia e52.
