Nokia 5800 in the Philippines
Nokia recently announced the Nokia 5800 Xpress Music (code-named “Tube”), a slim touch-screen phone that looks like the iPhone but Nokia is quick to dismiss the iPhone comparisons.

Specs:
3.2-inch touchscreen display with 16 Million colors
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
Users are also given one year (after initial purchase) of unlimited download of songs from Nokia’s Music Store using the company’s new Comes With Music service.
It is set to sell in Europe for 279 Euros (17,781.91 or about 18,000 pesos or more once it arrives in the Philippines).

ay lav it. kaso sana nilagyan nlang din nila ng Xenon flash at ginawang 5 MP ang camera. 3.2 pa rin to, para lang din N93i ko.

Only 18,000 pesos? I wish the Philippine pricing is just as simple as converting the foreign currency to our local money. It does not happen that way in most cases.
For instance the iPhone 3G, I wondered how Globe arrived at a P 35K price.

meron bang naka Vertu sa inyo?? that phone costs $7,000 and go high up to $350,000 depending on how many diamonds are embedded. Nokia is cheap, pang dirt-poor lang! iphone are for hippies who think they’re rich but happen to be trying hard xerox machines!
October 5th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Kris FYI lang, Vertu is 100% owned by Nokia
October 5th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
Nokia is still dirt cheap! the high end is Vertu, so why not go for the high end? cheap manilenos and probinsiyanos all you could afford is the peasant version of vertu!
October 5th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Honey, huwag mo masyadong ipagyabang ang Vertu. It’s nothing compared to GoldVish.
October 5th, 2008 at 5:15 pm
yabang mo kris ah! bakit may ganun ka pa!!! asa ka nmn!!! pweh
October 6th, 2008 at 2:43 am
