Given that it is Nokia’s first touch-screen phone, I must say the new Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phone is quite a well thought-out and developed product.
This phone has become quite a conversation starter since I had it. It’s in classy black, has a glossy finish and is quite slim at 15.5mm. I have been using the Sony Ericsson W960i for the past year and wouldn’t mind switching to this phone permanently.

The Nokia 5800 Comes with Music is a complete all-in-one gadget that everyone wishes to own. Though it’s the early stages of touch screen Symbian OS phone, it is easy to adapt if you previously own a Nokia phone with Symbian OS. From the home screen to the menus, connectivity, media, profiles, contact list and dial pad can be accessed readily via a single tap or two, making it a worthwhile competitor to the other touch screen phones in the market. Syncing with a MAC via iSync is a breeze – making contacts and calendar syncing easier in minutes! However, the build of the phone and feel seems like holding a cheap toy plastic phone and the OS didn’t respond fast enough when tapping on certain controls. But for the touch feel, Nokia did a great job in providing stylus and the pick for users who are not comfortable using their fingers. I enjoyed the touch experience without the use of the stylus and pick. Overall, the phone feels loud (music), complete with various connectivity options and easy to handle once you get a hang of it.
