Nokia XpressMusic 5900 leaks out?

Sure, this could just be a really nice KIRF, but we've got a hunch these pics of an upcoming Nokia XpressMusic 5900 are the real deal -- it's just too understated to be shanzhai. Compared to the 5800, the updated handsets are said to feature a slightly larger 3.5-inch display, a five megapixel camera, and more or less the same build of S60 5th edition, all in a slightly thinner case. That's all we know for now, but we're told we'll find out more soon -- keep it locked.

And a capacitive touch screen.

if you check out symbian-freak (http://www.symbian-freak.com/news/009/05/5900_next_nokia_full_touchscreen_device_leaked.htm), they have some more pictures of it. You know, if I don't have to see the front of the device ever, it actually looks pretty good from the side and the back but here's where things go really wrong, and this is why I think its not something from Nokia; 1) What the hell is that next to the camera?? That doesn't look like any kind of flash I've ever seen. The camera design does look similar to an N96 one though. 2) You have got to be shitting me with that sad excuse for a speaker in the back next to the camera. Not to mention I HIGHLY doubt Nokia would do something as stupid as remove the great stereo speakers from the 5800, and put a single bullshit one there instead. It's placement is terrible anyway, yet something we've seen on many Nokia's. I still don't believe they're that stupid. 3) Has anybody seen a typical Nokia design lately?? No way that stupid looking whatever the hell that face design is would ever make it out of a Nokia design studio. The back on the other hand looks like Nokia for the most part though. 4) Port placements are not where Nokia has been putting them lately. While I wish they'd put the antenna back up top and the USB and headphone jack at the bottom, every single new phone they've made has everything up top practically, and the antenna is always at the bottom. And that's what I think.

"T-Flash" slot, speaker grille in the place of the flash. Totally fake.

Yep, that speaker grille there, along with the "T-Flash" branding make it look fake.

Every Nokia phone I've bought with hot-swappable MicroSD has a little image of a memory card on the card slot.

And if that is a speaker grille by the camera, whats the holes on the other side of the camera for? A few too many to be another mic, I think.

looks like a fake to me :

- wierd "squared-dotted" front
- lack of visio camera
- what's up with that 'flash'
- ...and that T-Flash mark ?

KIRF !

It surely is a fake, the menu button is in the middle where as nokia is now positioning it at 45deg angle like on the n97…
