Nokia had announced C5-03 in October and this phone is now set for release in India at 10k price point. For long, 5800XM has been  one of the best low-midrange Symbian handset. After Nokia 5235 (8k retail price), the next best Symbian touch device is X6 which retails for 15k, and it doesn’t really justify the 14k+ price tag. C5-03 should fill that gap, which was taken care by old horse 5800XM. C5-03 doesn’t boast of any new features. Consider it as 5800XM v2.
