Nokia Xpress Music 5800 Review

The Nokia 5800 Xpress Music is the Finland-based cellular giant’s counterpart to the iPhone. It took Nokia a while to release its own version of a touchscreen phone. And when it finally came out, many people were surprised and excited because it was priced so much cheaper than the iPhone. So let’s take a look at what’s inside Nokia’s most talked about music phone.

The most important thing about touchscreen phones is obviously the screen itself, and Nokia didn’t fall short with the 5800. Does it come with a 3.2? large touch screen, which is the perfect size for its medium form factor. The screen is really bright and very readable even under exposure to sunlight. The screen seems to be very durable and is always responsive to the click of my finger as well as the stylus.

This rich multimedia device features a 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera with dual LED flash, Carl Zeiss optics, camera geotagging and video recording. The image quality is perfect and viewing images can be a lot of fun zooming in and out of every detail.

Music and multimedia is the best selling point for this Xpress Music line. Therefore, the 5800 was intentionally designed to allow you to access your music album collection, listen to FM radio, and project your videos and images using TV-out.

GPS and Nokia Maps took advantage of the phone’s widescreen and touch interaction capabilities. The maps are very clear and easy to follow, making them very convenient for car navigation.

Being a quad band GSM equipped with 3G, WLAN, GPRS and EDGE, the Nokia XpressMusic 5800 will keep you in TOUCH.
