Nokia 5800 XpressMusic has a 3.2-inch display with a resolution of 640x360 pixels, and has many features standard to the Nokia Nseries, such as GPS, HSDPA and Wi-Fi support.[9] It was a highly anticipated device in 2008[10][11] and went on to become a commercial success with 8 million units sold a year after release.[12] It was praised for its supplied stylus and low price, but was viewed negatively by critics for its camera and software issues.
The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is not the first touchscreen device in Nokia's range. In 2004, the Nokia 7700 was announced, a Nokia Series 90 device that was cancelled before it reached the market. This was followed by the Nokia 7710 which was an upgraded version of the 7700 and became available during 2005. Nokia also produced the UIQ-based Nokia 6708 phone in 2005, but this was not an in-house development and was bought in from Taiwanese manufacturer BenQ.[13] Nokia have also produced a range of Maemo-based Internet tablets which have a touchscreen interface, but are not mobile phones by themselves (one can connect and use a phone via Bluetooth). The 5800 is, however, Nokia's first Symbian S60 touchscreen device. The 16:9 aspect ratio display was the first among mobile phones. It has a compatibility mode for Java applications that are not touchscreen-aware. It works by using part of the screen for displaying the essential buttons required by the program.

The launch of the 5800 XpressMusic in January 2009 was followed-up with the release of the Nokia N97[14] in May and June 2009, followed by the Series 40 based Nokia 6208c in January 2009.[15] The device, as well as the Nokia Music Store, launched in South Africa on 24 April 2009.[16][17]
On the market, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic would compete with other touchscreen devices such as Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, Sony Ericsson Satio, iPhone 3G, HTC Touch Diamond, LG Renoir, LG Arena (KM900), BlackBerry Storm 9500, Samsung Pixon and Samsung i900 Omnia.
In early February 2009 the website Mobile-Review.com, which was initially very enthusiastic about the handset, published its research and concluded that the Nokia 5800 had a design flaw. Specifically, when phones were used on a daily basis, their earpieces, produced for Nokia under contract by a third party, would cease to function in a very short time. Repairs performed under warranty would only temporarily fix the problem. The defect was found to be in the earpiece design. Nokia's public relations department had admitted that the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic contained this design defect. According to Nokia, they switched to another earpiece manufacturer, so all 5800's produced during February 2009 or later should be free from defect, with previously produced earpieces eligible for free warranty repair. New earpiece parts have also been supplied to Nokia service centres and future phone repairs should permanently fix the defect.[18]
On 21 August 2009, Nokia announced a new variant named Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition. In addition to the normal Nokia 5800, it has the latest version of Nokia Maps pre-installed. It also comes with a car charger and car kit inside the box because the GPS decreases the battery life. Both the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and the 5800 Navigation Edition, however, have free lifetime navigation, due to the new version of Ovi Maps.[19]The service was available at nokia.com.[20]
On 23 January 2009, Nokia announced it had shipped the millionth 5800 XpressMusic device, even though it still had not been fully released worldwide.[22] Noknok reported by April that it was one of the fastest selling smartphones of all time.[23] In Nokia's Q1 report released on 16 April 2009 it was announced the company had shipped 2.6 million units during the quarter, with cumulative shipments of more than 3 million units since the smartphone's launch.[24] Q2 results released 16 July 2009 reports 3.7 million units shipped during the quarter and more than 6.8 million units total have shipped since the release.[25] As of November 2009, over 8 million units had been sold.[12]
From firmware version 20.0.012 onwards, the 5800's CPU clock was increased from 369 MHz to 434 MHz, matching the N97 specification.[3] However, improved overall performance can be observed since firmware version 30.
Firmware 51.2.007 was also released for North American Nokia 5800 RM-428 in August 2010 with the following changes:This software release comes with an improved browser, improved video calls, and a new version of Mail for Exchange. There are also general performance improvements.[31]
Some sites work a lot better through the 5800's own browser, some sites work a lot better through Opera Mini.
In general Opera Mini loads pages much more quickly, but the 5800's browser tends to render pages much more accurately. The 5800's browser is also able to cope with more kinds of content, for example Flash-based sites work on the 5800's browser but not on Opera Mini.
You may also find that different browsers suit different situations. If you have access to a Wi-Fi/WLAN or 3.5G connection then the built-in browser might be best, but if you only have access to a slow 2G connection then Opera Mini might be better.
It's very very easy: Open the 5800's own built-in browser, go to the address mini.opera.com and follow the on-screen instructions. The Opera Mini application is so small that we recommend you install it to the phone's own internal memory.
Because it's technically a non-native Java application and doesn't have direct access to the 5800's hardware. Only native applications (also known as S60 apps) are allowed to make connections automatically.
Music is the central point of the Nokia 5800, and the phone delivers. The sound quality is excellent, and the 5800 has a dedicated music chip built in, offering a listening experience on a par with a dedicated music device like the iPod and the iPhone. The music player offers plenty of functionality, including the ability to create playlists, view cover art, and an adjustable equalizer. The new firmware also allows users to modify song information in MP3 ID tags. As usual, iTunes DRM protected songs are not supported.
Back in Europe, Nokia announced that it already sold over one million units of the 5800. Do you think the phone will be successful in the US? Will you be queuing up to get a Nokia 5800 for the full price (unlocked)? Please let me know in the comments.
Quite a lot of people think you need a computer to subscribe to podcasts, but you don't. The Nokia 5800 lets you browse, subscribe and download podcasts straight onto the phone, with absolutely no need for any kind of PC or Mac. Read on to find out all the details, including how to discover new podcasts or listen to old favourites.
Podcasts are generally audio recordings distributed over the internet, often taken from radio programmes, but increasingly made specially for the internet. Some podcasts also contain video or pictures, though this is relatively rare and most podcasts are audio-only. Whatever the case, they can be great fun to listen to and there are podcasts about practically every topic in existence.
You can download podcasts straight onto the Nokia 5800 either through your phone network, or through a Wi-Fi/WLAN connection at home, or at a public hotspot. You don't need a computer to do this, the 5800 handles everything.
If there's a podcast you enjoy, it's a good idea to subscribe to it, so that the latest podcast episode is downloaded automatically onto your phone, ready for you to listen to it whenever you want to. Many people subscribe to podcasts so they have something to listen to on their way to work, and in many ways podcasts are taking the place of morning newspapers (but podcasts are free!).
The 5800 comes with a built-in application called simply "Podcasting", which you'll find in the Music folder of the main menu page. This app lets you subscribe, download and listen to all your podcasts on the phone, without any need to use a computer. To access it:
1. On the standby screen of the phone press the white menu button.
2. Select the Music folder
3. Select the Podcasting application
The Podcasting application has two built-in methods for discovering podcasts you might enjoy. One of them is the directory system, and the other is a search function. The directories let you browse through categorised lists of podcasts from all over the world, covering all kinds of subjects. The search function lets you search for podcasts based on keywords (for example searching for "dog" will bring up a list of pocasts about dogs). Note that the two systems are independent, and some podcasts are only listed in one or the other.
You can also subscribe to podcasts that aren't listed in the search or directory systems, but more about that later.
Before anything else though, there are a couple of VERY important things you have to do in the settings menu:
The 5800's internal memory is too small to store many podcasts, so it's important that you make sure the Podcasting app is storing the podcasts on your phone's memory card instead. Here's how to do that:
Last day I made another attempt to upgrade the firmware of my Nokia 5800 XpressMusic to latest version that is 50.0.005. I was running version 40 before it. I read a lot on Internet that people are facing troubles after upgrading their phone software to this version.
Losing photos from your Nokia 5800 phone is very upsetting because we all click moments that matter to us, that hold important and precious memories; and losing all this within minutes can be unnerving for anyone and everyone. Nowadays, people also don't keep regular backups of their photos and videos (and other types of data); and nor do they transfer the data to other devices which means that if someone loses their data and there is no backup then it could mean that you have lost your data forever. Do not worry now, we have solutions to recover photos from Nokia 5800 easily. 0852c4b9a8
