Nokia 5800 Xpress

People have been talking about it for months, and now, it's finally here: Nokia's first mainstream touchscreen mobile phone. A brand-new touch-based interface, a 3MP camera, and superb music playback all go to make the Nokia 5800 Xpress one of the most exciting mobile phones ever made!

Mobile phones with built-in touchscreens are the big things at the minute. The list of touchscreen devices grows bigger every day, but up until this moment, the biggest name in the industry, Nokia, haven't brought out their own 2008-spec touchscreen monster-phone. Well, now they've changed all that, and released one, in the form of the stunning Nokia 5800 Xpress.

Mainstream Touchscreen

Ok, they might have made touchscreen mobile phones previously, but not one of them has been as eagerly anticipated, or as downright brilliant, as the Nokia 5800 Xpress. It redefines how you use your phone, with a sleek interface, mashed up with that standard Nokia brilliance. The reason it can do that so well is all thanks to the Symbian operating system, a brand new incarnation never seen on any previous mobile phones. And if that doesn't sound too tempting, consider that what it adds up to is this: with the fusion of the touchscreen, and Nokia's trademark user-friendliness, the Nokia 5800 Xpress is easily one of the nicest and most user-friendly mobile phones you'll clap eyes on!

Xpress Yourself

As you may have noticed from its name, the Nokia 5800 Xpress belongs within their XpressMusic range of mobile phones. And that means you'll have properly awesome sounds from this baby. Needless to say, you control your tunes through the touchscreen, so the merest brush of your fingertips will have the phone pumping music in your ears. Then, as your ears are being filled with song, let the 3 megapixel camera within the Nokia 5800 Xpress thrill your visual senses with the breathtaking photos it throws out, which you control, once again, by touch.

Finally, you also get the most advanced touch-based maps, using the GPS in the Nokia 5800 Xpress. Or you could check out the web at proper broadband speeds of up to 3.6Mbps. Whatever you want, everything is, quite literally, at your fingertips with the marvellous Nokia 5800 Xpress.
