As you already know Nokia 5800 Xpress Music is a mobile phone dedicated to music and now he have INQ1, which is a Facebook dedicated mobile phone. So, which of this mobile phones is better? 5800? INQ1? It's at least a difficult question because they were done for different purposes but with the same objective: to work in the interaction between users and phones.

5800 is all about music? INQ1 is all about Facebook?

No way, INQ1 uses all this Facebook relation to make the device possible to gather data from social networking contacts to your phone book list for example, the device is much more than a simple "social device" for "famous social networking people". At the same time Nokia 5800 Xpress Music isn't dedicated to music, but to all kinds of media, such as video on it's huge screen (yah, if you try to see a movie on your Nokia 5800 the quality is great, simply the best i saw in a phone) or TV. 5800 support MPEG4, WMV or 3GP.

Music, Social Music and Media

In terms of music it's difficult to decide who is the winner, because while INQ1 integrates the music player with the social network last.fm and the Nokia 5800 "Comes With Music" in some countries and by subscribing 1 year you get unlimited tracks to download. Nokia 5800 has indeed the best Media player, supporting the usual file formats, displaying album art when you play a track, showing the track playing and time elapsed information too. The sound you get from Nokia 5800 is similar to an ipod (dude, it's an Xpress Music!!!) but I can't say the same thing about INQ1, hehe.

Social vs Not Social

INQ 1 integrates many social networks, as last.fm, Facebook, Skype, it has built-in support for Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo e-mail accounts joined with Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Domino, you can accede to Windows Live and Skype Messenger. The INQ 1 web browser is compatible with the most famous websites in the WWW, plus it is compatible with Nokia5800.net, of course. It s a social phone, but if we think a bit it is better to pay a more and have a device compatible with this apps (of course many of them  aren't built-in) but can give you more fun and entertainment, like ...(what would be?) Nokia 500 Xpress Music, the web navigation is excellent so as the e-mail accounts access, and skype? Voip can be installed in the 5800...Well, no Facebook, indeed that's true.

Concluding, in terms of media in general, the winner is Nokia 5800, in terms of social media and social networking we can't say that INQ 1 isnt' a winner...
