While many reviews compare Nokias first entry into the touchscreen market against Apples iPhone, I am going to avoid the topic altogether. If you wish to read such a review, check out basically any review on the net today. If you would like to read a non-biast review about a decent phone, with both striking features and irritating flaws, read ...  Read the complete review

I wanted a smart phone that could do a lot of what the iphone does but without the horrendous £35 per month price tag. To start with I did my research. The only contenders in the market were the 5800 and the HTC touch HD. The latter had good reviews but unfortunately came with a Windows (slow and dimwitted) and a price tag in the same bracket as ...  Read the complete review

I bought this phone as an alternative to the iPhone, which I found slightly annoying since everybody seemed to had one, and this one was smaller and offered the same features supposedly. As far as music goes, it is an excellent device, storing at least 8GB worth of material, having excellent sound quality and being easy to use in this ...  Read the complete review

If you use your phone mainly for the internet and music but don't have the budget for an iphone the Nokia 5800 is the phone for you. It doesn't have the best camera in the world, only being a 3.2 mp but there are other features that more than make up for it. The internet is very fast for a phone, I prefer to use my phone than my laptop and dongle ...  Read the complete review

I decided to get an early upgrade after having the C902 for about six months or so. The main reason was because it broke twice already and didn't feel very reliable. So anyway, the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic came yesterday and it really is an amazing phone. I think one word that best describes it is convenient. The 3.2 inch touch screen ...  Read the complete review

The phone was part of a free upgrade from my nokia 5310. I have had the phone now for just over a month and a half and it has given me a reason to doubt it as of yet. One of the main reasons for choosing this phone over rivals Samsung and Sony is simply due to the memory it comes with its pretty much and iPod with every other day to day ...  Read the complete review

Apart from the fact that its somewhat akin to my old "brick" I had back in the day, I do like it! The touchscreen works really well, better in comparison to the Samsung touchscreens. And the function that shouts out who is calling is genius for screening. The web browser is really good on a local network, but is horrendously slow ...  Read the complete review

My current mobile phone. I made my decision on purchasing this phone base on a few reviews on the web. And, I am glad I did because it is a fantastic piece of kit for the money. First of all, when it arrived it was unbranded, no Orange etc anywhere on it. It isn't a small phone but it isn't huge either, my ...  Read the complete review

I received the Nokia 5800 as part of a contract upgrade in March, upgrading from the Nokia 5310. The Nokia 5800 is a fantastic phone, with a few small issues. The resolution of the screen is good, the quick links on the home page are intuitive and useful, the standby slider is an excellent idea, and navigation is very easy. Being one of the first ...  Read the complete review

I had been looking at this phone for a couple of months and decided to just buy it. I bought the Nokia 5800 Express Music about 3 weeks ago after my Nokia 6300 wouldn't accept the memory card I was using. I am really impressed with the phone so far. I haven't used PC Suite yet because I'm just sending my music and photos and apps to the ...  Read the complete review

The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phone is one of Nokia's first attempts at a touch screen handset for the masses. Before its release, many were hoping it would rival the iPhone. Well, what you must understand, before making a purchase of the 5800, is that Nokia are not targetting the iPhone with this particular handset, though they may make their ...  Read the complete review

Having needed a new phone for a very long time, I decided to get a contract. As it was a fairly bad contract, the nokia 5800 came with it. *Appearance* The sleek curves of this phone will have anyone wanting to have a look. Available in a smooth red theme, the phone looks simple but sexy. The touch screen is 3.2" which is ...  Read the complete review

I'm quite a gadget geek myself, and I have always wanted to be able to test the latest gadgets, specifically mobile phones, and my current job lets me do that. The Nokia 5800 is a really beautiful piece of art. True it is a slightly thicker version and is not as sleek as some of the other touch screen phones out on the market at the moment, but ...  Read the complete review

Having upgraded my handset to the Nokia 5800 6weeks ago I thought it was about the right time to share my views. Having upgraded from a Samsung I was looking forward to going back to Nokia but a little apprehensive having used other touch screen phones where the software was simply not up to scratch. The handset is not large by any ...  Read the complete review

I don't personally own this phone but as my friend does I have used this multiple times. Overall I think it is an excellent phone. The display is classic and simple - everything you'd expect from a Nokia. It's very simple to use and navigate and the animated icons makes it fun to browse the phone. The texting on it uses the computer ...  Read the complete review

A superbly easy phone to use - the on screen dial-pad is large enough to use with your fingers, but the device comes with a stylus (and a groove in the back to keep it safe,) for when more precision is required, for example, browsing the web. In terms of connectivity, it can recognise nearly any source of internet, from the router at ...  Read the complete review

I had my eye on the Nokia 5800 for a few months before it was released. I thought it was too good to be true; a high spec touchscreen Nokia priced under £250 sim free. Once it was eventually released I simply couldnt believe it! I quickly rushed out and purchased it a couple of days after release (Carphone Warehouse o2 Handset for £210). Its the ...  Read the complete review

The Good: Nokia's first touchscreen version of S60 works very well, and even manages to be compatible (to a point) with S60v3 certain applications I've tried. Mobile flash video on YouTube and BBC iPlayer are brilliant. The screen, the sound quality (even better than an iPod's IMHO) are all wonderful in a phone that's ostensibly mid-ranged. ...  Read the complete review
