Espoo, Finland - Nokia announced today that the highly anticipated
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is now, or soon will be, available in select
markets globally, including Russia, Spain, India, Hong Kong, Taiwan,
Finland, among others. The latest in Nokia's XpressMusic range, the
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic delivers an affordable music device with a
touch screen interface to the mass market.
Aiming to put music into the hands of millions, the Nokia 5800
XpressMusic offers all the music essentials including a graphic
equalizer, 8GB memory for up to 6000 tracks, support for all main
digital music formats, and a 3.5mm jack. Built-in surround sound
stereo speakers offer the industry's most powerful sound.
"When it comes to music phones, people all over the world want a
device that is a great music experience and still works really well
as a mobile phone, without sacrificing features," said Jo Harlow,
Vice President, Nokia. "The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic delivers on this
and allows consumers to quickly and easily access and share the
content that is most important to them with the people that are most
important to them."
Making the most of touch screen technology, the Nokia 5800
XpressMusic delivers easy and fast access to all music, video and
photos through a one-touch 'Mediabar' drop down menu. The Media Bar
also offers a direct link to the Web and to online sharing. Because
the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic supports Flash content, individuals can
surf the entire web.
The innovative 'Contacts Bar' lets people highlight four favorite
contacts on their home-screen and, through a single touch, track a
digital history of recent text messages, emails, phone logs, photos
and blog updates.
For the best screen resolution available on a mobile phone, the 3.2"
widescreen display brings photos, video clips and web content to life
in vibrant color and true clarity. With a 16 by 9 aspect ratio and
30 frames-per-second playback and recording, the device is ideal for
VGA quality video recording and playback. The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic
also features a 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens and, with a
single touch, images or videos can be shared via a favorite online
community, such as Share on Ovi, Flickr, or Facebook.
Ensuring a seamless music experience, Nokia 5800 XpressMusic also
provides easy access to browse and purchase tracks from the Nokia
Music Store, where applicable, while the newly updated Nokia Music PC
software allows for easy drag-and-drop transfer of songs and
management of any music collection.
The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic supports 60 languages worldwide and offers
a variety of input methods including a virtual alphanumeric keypad, a
virtual computer-style QWERTY keyboard, a pen stylus -- and for true
music enthusiasts, a plectrum -- are all available.
