How about battery life? A big touch screen will probably effect the battery time? Nokia ususally holds the standard. Anyone know?
Finally some competition for iphone
can i wipe it on my ass
The Nokia 5800 or the Nokia Tube, might have made an appearance in the movie Dark Knight, in the scene where Morgan Freeman hands over a phone to Christina Bale saying it is SONAR device which sends out a sound pulse and maps the area. In theater, I could read the words Nokia on it, and its about the same size as pictures above. That could be the phone.
You are right, it was the nokia 5800 in The Dark Knight
Yes it is the same phone from Dark Knight!!
Nokia 5800 rocks and it has way more features than iphone 3G
No Nokia N98 was used in darknight which is another touchscreen phone that will be released by Nokia soon, hence Nokia will become the market leader in touch phones, its just a matter of time. BTW does any one know when 5800 will be released in UAE and Middle east?
The phone is used in Britney Spear’s new video Womanizer!
It looks nice!!
Shayan n98 dont even exsist! i work for nokia i think u was refering to n96 but thats not touch screen
Oh ok Trevor, then i think i must be mistaken. Could you please contact me my email ID is shayan_afzal@hotmail.com.
it will be released in december in the uae
Trevor i think shanyan is refering to n97. A slide/touch screen phone due to be release by nokia in feb. 2009
very very niceeee…!!!!!
had this phone for training purposes on tuesday!!
Great phone, buying one tomorow 😀
The Nokia 5800 is sooooo cool. I want to get it as soon as its out. It has so many aplications, such as Touch Guitar!!!
Great video review, remember that the blue edition is only available on Vodafone in the UK – its the red version that most retailers are stocking.
Only had mine for a couple of days but what can I say… fantastic. I was going off Nokias and have looked at most of the touch screen phones available. In my opinion, this is the best one on the market.
can anyone tell me how to change the message tone notifaction sound i cant seem to find the option
SETTINGS>PERSONAL>PROFILES> select profile you are using PERSONALISE and it’s in there.
It this phone any good with videos, a few of my mates have iphones and blackberrys and the movie quality is superb.
could anyone tell me how i lock my profiles, such as contacts and messages etc.
hi. I’m thinking of Getting the phone but I’m not too sure if the touch screens good, can anyone tell me :S?
hi. I currently have the iphone but Im lookiing for a new phone and came across this phone which looks really good but I was wondering if the touch screen it has is any good. Does anyone know?
iam getin a nokia 5800 tomorrow 😀 !!!!
have tested nokia’s Bluetooth and I don’t think its
really that good I use a Sony Wireless DR-BT20NX and I when I use this
with any other phone close enough (phone is in my pocket and I am
wearing the wireless Bluetooth) there no problems at all for the transmission
of music but nokia 5800 stops most times in the middle of the track for
about 5 seconds then resumes changing the bpms of the song
(here the track goes faster than before)
And this is close enough but some phones I have used with this
gadget (Sony Wireless DR-BT20NX) at a long distances (5meters)
don’t find any problem
Could they give us a reason as to why does this happen
i`ve had my nokia 5800 for a week or so and what can i say but what a brilliant phone best phone i have ever had well done nokia
A bit disappointing phone.
Music Xpress! right. Before you try connecting it to your computer and trying to load your favourate tunes…
It becomes evident straight away that NOKIA have put so much in a phone, gave it a great name and did not bother at all to build a half decent software.
– The phone does not come with its own drivers for many operating system! NOKIA have depended on Microsoft to build drivers and depends alot on MS media player Ver 10.
I am a computer expert but to took me a good 10hrs to get it properly work on my XPsp2 until I downloaded MTP kit from microsoft and downgraded my windows media player to version 10.
Even after doing all that,
when you connect the phone, you need to select on the phone how you want to link it to your PC (choices: PC suite, Mass storage, Image transfer, Media transfer!!) Madness!! It is not obvious where to put the music! NOKIA have used ./sounds/digital for music location. One would expect to see a directory named something like ‘music’ but it does not exist!
And after you have put your music on, It is not easy to work out how you put your music in a playlist!
– The phone is a bit slow!
– the phone only plays only afew video and audio formats! I this day an age music devices should be able to play all or a decent number of formats..
I found that I could not play almost 70% of my music and video, because the NOKIA do not provide software that can convert to their standard formats!
The phone is ok, I like bits of it, like ability to play videos through the TV & others But It still has a long way to go.
can v play .wmv, .avi, video formats in this phone?? also, i hope the videos recorded by this phone would be of .3gp format!!!! pls reply…
Can Anyone tell me what WiFi is?
when i try to watch a video on iplayer on the Nokia 5800 its says ‘Please switch to WiFi’
How do you do that ? Please help.Thankz!
