any idea on difference between 5230 and 5235?
Is 5235 modified version of 5230 with some fixes?

I don't see any difference except unlimited music download for 180days and price difference is around 1000 rupees in india which is not worth enough to be, because mp3s are available for free in some sites and also can be converted from any format

@pudu One noticeable difference is the accessory, 5235 comes with  Nokia Stereo Headset WH-701, having tested once it produces awesome sound quality . 5230 comes with a cheap set of ear-phones.

[pudu]

yes, thats one good point,
Is 5235 a music xpress

[krizanand]

No it doesn't come under Xpressmusic tag. It is 5235......

[pudu · Accepted solution]

that means, difference is headset and music download.

Thats what i was thinking.
When nokia 5230 first released in india there was some firmware and battery hot complaint. And after sometime it was not available in store(out of stock without reason).

So i thought, fixed those bugs and release with new model no. with increase in price

I think this info will satisfy most of the guys who had bought 5235. Actually the most remarkable difference b/w 5230 and 5235 lies in its NAND memory.. 5235 supports 512MB whereas 5230 supports only 256MB of NAND memory.. Moreover additional benefits are:

1. Ear phones

2. Music license

I had confirmed this from Nokia Care itself. Also I want some guys to confirm this too. Also is there anyone who had used both the mobiles and could see some difference??

[pudu]

wooow
Thats a remarkable diffrence in memory, some site describe it as 320mb accessible for 5235 and 70mb for 5230. Indian version has same specification in term of memory.

See under memory sectction http://www.nokia.co.in/find-products/products/nokia-5235/specifications

@pudo the most precious thing about the free music download feature of the other phone is that instead of buying the song, it's free. Nokia pays the artists of the s0ngs that u download, unlike downloading free but pirated copies of that s0ng.
