Here are some of my favourite free apps for my nokia 5530 (basically compatible with all Symbian Series 60 V5 phones)

  • Opera Mobile : The katest version 10 is still in beta but provides a great browsing experience, the only let down is it is RAM hungry
  • Touch Comic : A great app for reading comics in cbz format, with option to zoom , fit to width etc.
  • Fring : A great app for chatting, making video calls and some social networking too
  • Device Info : This is a great little widget listing out all the phone’s hardware and software resources in a graphical and easy way
  • GMail : Its a java app, but a easy way to catch up with gmail. Its not perfect for a touchscreen phone but still my daily used app

Still there are some more free apps like skyfire, nimbuzz  which I am yet to try. If you know any free good apps for Series60 V5 please post your comments here
