Review of Nokia 5230, Smarter Foot Soldier
This time it looks like Nokia wants to offer a gift free of competition. This gift is called Nokia 5230. The competitive price tag is the result of minimal R&D costs. This one is the cheapest S60 touchscreen device. Yes, it cant be compared to 5530 but HSDPA and GPS are nice offer especially for them with good data plan.
You can choose 5230 or 5530 XM according to your requirements, whether you like GPS with fast HSDPA data transfer or WiFi. I think the downgraded snapper is not a matter considering it may not become the great asset in 5530 or 5800.
