For the ones who keep getting lost and love to enjoy music while doing so, Nokia is bringing the Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition. The Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition cannot be exactly called as the successor of the Nokia 5800 XpresMusic, but it definitely is an upgraded variant of the same.

The Navigation Edition comes bundled with a lifetime Drive and Walk navigation license, a car stand and a car charger for converting the your phone into a fully functional GPS device.  The navigation license will be valid only for the region of purchase. The phone would come equipped with the latest version of the Ovi Maps and a new Chrome and Black color styling.

The Navigation Edition would be available in three different types, dependent mostly on the availability of the type of networks in the area. While all three would be Quad-band GSM phones, only two of them would be available with WLAN and dual-band 3G with HSDPA.

The Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition is expected to roll out in Q4 and would be available for 285 Euro before any subsidies or taxes. Hit the jump for the promotional video of 5800 Navigation Edition.

Nokia 5800 variant, 5530 XpressMusic Specs leaked

April 13th, 2009

nokia-5800-black

Nokia 5800 is a instant hit for Nokia and the only Nokia touchscreen that has such a response from the market. While 5800 is priced aggressively costing $200 less than the iPhone 3G in India; others like the LG Cookie has managed to capture a good share of the market backed by better pricing.

Probably the success of LG Cookie prompts Nokia to speed up work on a baby version of 5800, i.e. the 5530 Xpress Music. Expected to hit the markets by September here are the leaked specs of the Nokia 5530:

Nokia E63 launched in India, 5800 coming this week!

January 4th, 2009

The much awaited (atleast for me) Nokia E63 (scaled down version of E71) is now available in India. Retailing for less than Rs 15000 this seems to be a good buy. But compared to the expectations of USD 250, I feel the pricing is still a little steep. Courtesy Fine Connections, we managed to have a quick look at the handset and It is pretty impressive. Though a little bigger than the E71, it would be good upgrade from an E61i.

Also confirmed that the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic shall hit the Indian stores by this weekend. The pricing is Approx Rs 19400 which is really impressive. The first batch of Nokia’s in 2009 is looking good. The 5800 faces competition from LG Cookie which is aggressively priced @ Rs 13000 and highly promoted in India. The LG Cookie went on sale last week.

November 25th, 2008

Nokia today announced the 5800 touchscreen in India along with their music service Ovi. The much awaited touchscreen from Nokia comes as a competition to the iPhone. The pricing is what excited us the most; Rs 21839 only! While the iPhone is backed by the popular iTunes and the Appstore; Nokia still banks majorly on the Symbian OS and mass market approach.

Ovi is the name for Nokia’s “umbrella concept” Internet services. Centered on ovi.com, it will market as “personal dashboard” where users can share photos with friends, buy music and access third-party services like Yahoo’s Flickr photo site.
