I had to decide between 5230 & 5233. Both the phones have the same features except that 5230 supports 3G. Since 3G is getting started soon(and I am really looking forward to it), I decided to go with 5230.
The phone’s great. Real value for money. Great features, easy to operate and looks great too. The battery lasts long enough for a smart phone and for someone who likes to keep in touch with friends and browse the net where & whenever he wants, this is the phone to have. The touchscreen feels great, better than nokia’s 5800 or samsung’s any other touchscreen phones. Quick response too.
The problem I faced was of audio playback quality. Without the earphone the sounds not so impressive. Even on earphones the quality is not so good. When on train or a bus you could hardly hear the song playing.
The reason, mono speaker not stereo. Although this is a smart phone, it’s definitely not a music phone.
By the way, memory card was not included so I had to buy a separate 4GB card.
But I guess itne paise mein itna hein milega.
All & all a good product nevertheless.
