User response[edit]
Although said to be a downgraded but more stable version[6] of Nokia 5800, it has got popular among the lower end users because of its low cost (INR. 5700 as of December 2011). The sound-output from internal speaker is notoriously low (to compensate for the fidelity perhaps). The phone is provided with a standard Nokia S^1 (S60v5) Browser (upgradable after firmware updates), and provides the standard Nokia multimedia Gallery with images and videos in the same label. Being a Resistive touch phone, Nokia 5233 sports a large 360 x 640 pixels, 3.2 inches display screen with a quick touch response. The display of the device is good with exact reproduction of colors. The positive aspect is its video recording feature which is highly likable due to its 30fps recording ability with nHD feature (640x360 resolution). The still images of the 2.0 mp camera is good with low noise. On the other hand, the procedure of removing the SIM card from this device is somewhat complicated, and the user must know how to before doing it themselves.
Multimedia experience is good with a wide support of video codecs (excluding .avi .divx and .mpg), ability to play high quality videos at the bit rate of up to 2600 kbit/s and resolution up to 640x480, 3D sound experience (through headphones), and inbuilt image and video editing software. The screen resolution is good and its Symbian operating system with multitasking support makes it a perfect smartphone in the low-end segment.
The updated firmware V51.1.002 fixes most of the bugs and the issues, the phone feels much more stable than before. The browser has also been updated to version 7.3 adding tabbed browsing, limited HTML5 and Microsoft Silverlight support and a refreshed UI. The swipe-to-unlock feature has also been added.
