The Nokia 5800 is a portable entertainment device by Nokia. The Nokia 5800, code-named "Tube," is a Symbian S60 smartphone. It is an XpressMusic series phone, which emphasizes music and multimedia playback. While it has tactile feedback, it doesn't use Nokia's upcoming Haptikos technology. It has a compatibility mode for Java applications that aren't touch screen-aware.
It works by using part of the screen for displaying the essential buttons required by the program. A prototype of this handset was seen in the 2008 Batman movie, The Dark Knight, as well as Britney Spears' US #1 hit Womanizer and Christina Aguilera's Keeps Gettin' Better musi videos. The phone has received generally positive reviews, with UK phone magazine Mobile Choice awarding it a full 5 stars in its Feb 8th issue.
On January 23rd 2009, Nokia announced it had shipped the millionth 5800 XpressMusic device, even though it still had not been fully released worldwide. This Nokia touchscreen has the very apt alias of 'Tube'. Much like London's underground transport network, it has the potential to be fast, efficient and easy. There's a plenitude of input methods from handwriting recognition, a mini or full-sized QWERTY keyboard, or a complimentary guitar plectrum stylus.
All very impressive, but like the Underground it's also prone to delays due to a slow accelerometer and being a bit cramped. It might not have a tramp wandering around inside, but the narrow screen makes vertical texting a bit of a squeeze. The launch of the 5800 XpressMusic in October 2008 was followed-up with the announcement of the Nokia N97 in December 2008, followed by the Series 40 based Nokia 6208c in January 2009.
