Make sure to update it's firmware to atleast 21.0.025 for a performance gain,the new v31 is out i did try yesterday but it isn't available for our region yet but do update it since it's worth it.

  • Noticeable speed and response improvements
  • Better music quality, onscreen touch volume control
  • Improved browser, faster surfing, fullscreen web has now transparent arrow
  • Correct icons for the call lists (mobile, fixed, etc.)
  • The portrait/ landscape switch is pretty fast now
  • More free RAM available now
http://www.tube5800.com/nokia-5800-firmware-update-v30-finally-arrives/

btw i'd recommend these applications to everyone...

Nimbuzz(log into every messenger even facebook chat etc from one application)
Photobrowser(awesome 3d style photo gallery by Nokia beta labs and is available at betalabs.nokia.com)
Shazam(an application which can recognize any track that you hear being played and tell you the artist and name of the song)

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
