More interestingly, it comes with a camera that boasts no less than 12 megapixels – the Carl Zeiss lens here actually captures more info than a lot of standalone cameras out there. It also comes with a handy Xenon flash, though we won’t go so far as to say you can junk your SLR camera.

LG Mini GD880

In a smartphone market crowded with gizmos of all shapes and functions, first impressions count. A lot.

Unfortunately, despite being called a “pocket rocket” by LG, the Korean electronics giant’s newly launched Mini GD880 fashion phone did not get my hopes sky high at first glance.

Its main screen menus are a noticeably slow when you swipe your finger across the display to move them, especially when you compare the phone to an iPhone or Nexus One. And for many users, that is as good a test as any they will carry out at a store.

Okay, if you have the patience to try out other features, there are some nifty ones. One of them is the ability to control the phone from your desktop using Bluetooth or USB. In other words, you can see what your phone is seeing, including its camera, from your PC. A nice way of spying on your colleagues at work, without looking like you are looking at them, perhaps?

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic
Estimated retail price: S$798
Availability: From 28th Feb 2009, Saturday (tomorrow)
Colors: red and blue, with silver-black from mid-March
Specs and features: Pretty standard for a mid-range touch phone. 3.2 megapixel camera. 3G, HSDPA and Wi-Fi. Comes with built-in A-GPS. Free 8GB micro-SD card. For all the specifics, go to Nokia’s product pagehere.

But I totally agree with Gin and Alf that the key differentiator is the “Comes with Music” service by Nokia. Brilliant tactical move by the handset giant. Basically, it allows users unlimited downloads of tracks from Nokia’s music store for one year. According to Nokia, they have about four million tunes in the store. Operator charges are of course separate. Singapore is the first country in Asia to run this service; it was first launched in UK last October.
