Hello! Are you a Nokia 5800 XpressMusic owner? Please take the quick survey here!
Earlier dubbed as Nokia Tube, the just announced Nokia 5800 XpressMusic may appeal to many Nokia fans with its touch screen interface that comes with a pen stylus.
Here’s what Nokia fans will get with the release of the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic:
3.2 inch touch screen display (640×360)
3G/HSDPA 3.6Mbps
GPS with Nokia Maps 2.0
WiFi 802.11 b/g
3.15MP autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss optics and dual flash (2048×1536 pixels)
secondary camera for video calls
Pre-loaded with an 8GB microSD card (max 16GB)
81MB internal memory
Proximity Sensor (auto turn-off)
Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate
Handwriting recognition
Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP
Stereo FM radio with RDS
TV Out
3.5mm audio output jack
Surprisingly, the price $392 is pretty attractive (just around Php18,000) considering you also get the 8GB microSD card in it.
What’s more surprising is that Nokia is also introducing the “Comes with Music” in this handset — that’s 12 months of free unlimited subscription to the Nokia Music Store.
Not only is the Nokia 5800 a potential iPhone-killer, it’s more like an iTunes-killer too. See Nokia PR page.

Quite a nice phone! Hmmmmm, that made me want to perform hands-on review in it.
Step aside iPhone….. this one is perfectly cool….
I’m attracted to the price.
now this one is a good deal.
surefire! beats the crAPPLE iPhone’s ass performance wise.
I’m adding this to my Christmas wishlist
OMG?! as in?! Christmas Bonus = Christmas Shopping!!!
where can i buy it now?
Sa december ako ka na…:-)
iphone humanda ka! hahaha
18,000 pesos?I doubt it, i bet it will start at 29,000 if not 32 or 39T…Considering it’s touch screen and all.
i think mag sta start sya ng 55k+ dito sa phils… parang iPhone na $199 lang, pero pag dating sa pinas 41k ~___~
Any iphone killer are always welcome..
Wish they come sooner & affordable for the manongs & the indays..
i can imagine the possibilities..

Very cool and a tempting buy. Let’s hope the Yuga’s suggested price tag stays true once this unit hits local stores. It would one awesome Christmas gift.
yung iphone po sa america kya $199 xe my 2 year contract ka pa dun.. babayaran mo pa un ng 2 taon.. prang plan dito sten.. kaya gnun..
kelan e2 ire2lease d2 sa pinas?
di naman siguro aabot ng 30k.. kasi it’s a question of availability eh… pretty much yung globe predominantly one of the official retailers ng iphone 3g kaya yung iphone 3g subject to overpricing… yung 5800 naman, ang daming potential retailers niyan (Nokia Store[dapat naman], memoxpress[official retailer siya.. nasa box ng most nokia phones], etc.)… so no need to rely sa mga mobile networks gaya ng globe. the only thing to worry about is yung taxes na idadagdag pagdating dito…haha
nasa 20K lang yan naka subsidize kasi yung iphone kaya wag nyo i compare dun retail price na nya ang $300+ unlike iphone eh 199 naka plan
@ralph
erratum!
dapat iPod Touch din.
Kelan ba yan available sa pinas?
Boss sang store sa pinas mabibili yan? can’t wait to buy it..
Boss Yuga, pls. update us kelan nito sa pinas…. Thanks.
Brod Yuga, update us when its already available here in the Philippines… Daghang Salamat!
hi, when will the nokia 5800 come to the philippines? how much will it be?
when will it be available in the philippines?
dude… 7 countries or 2 countries lang ata yung makakakuha ng 5800 this year… the rest daw next year na… ano ba talaga? hmmm… pero sa russia raw $600 yung 5800… almost double ng sinabi ng nokia… ngek!
hi, nagtanong ako sa Nokia Robinsons Galleria. Available daw ang 5800 by December 2008, at the price of P30,000
Hi, nag mail ako sa nokia careline eto lng ang sagot!
‘Thank you for emailing Nokia Careline.
In response to your inquiry, please be advise that Nokia 5800 Xpress Music is not yet officially launched in the market. There is no confirmation when will be released, however, you may try to check from our Nokia website or you may call Nokia Careline from time to time.’
i read two comments from this site, the one said nokia is for Pinoy and the other one Pinoy is an mimick genius, consolidating the two idea, nokia is definitely defines a Pinoy considering it imitates the iPhone features though not all but mostly.
I was in Nokia showroom last week and asking about this gadget. They said it will be available, probably, this coming January. Unfortunately they have no idea yet about the price. I guess it will not be 18K pesos. I personally wondering why all gadgets in Pinas are more expensive than in US or Euro or Singapore. I bought laptop Vaio VGN CN 590 in US just 1.000 dollars but in Pinas it is 79K. Sobra. Likewise when I bought Canon S5Is, it was just 350 dollars in US but 27K in Pinas. I am still waiting for this cute Nokia. Regards!
meron na ako, lucky me. maganda. hehehe. joke lang yang 395$ na yan!
where did u get one? pls tel…
how much did it cost?
sa hong kong… 3,900 HK$
punta ka… so plus airfare, lodging and all… lampas na dun. just wait for it na lang sa phillies. january’s just around the corner.
try to go to tipidcp.com or ebay.com.ph. one of the member is selling brand new nokia 5800 8gb for 21600. planning to but 1 but still compairing it with omnia
It’s a great mobile phone. Much better than iphone if i should say, compared to size and performance, lalo sa price he2. I got it for P18,300 to be exact. Everythings great, wla ka masasabi as long as you know how to manage it, kalikutin mo lang he2. kaya lang wla pa yahoo go. sana magrelease sila and hanap ka ng good video converter to watch movies. you can store&watch lots of movies he2. inet connection, bilis din, talo pa iba pc gaya ng acer one he2.
Satisfaction guaranteed for this mobile. From touch screen to perfromance at lesser price and size. baka di ka makatulog sa kakakalikot to know all the features. sad to say, nokia video converter doesn’t work properly, you’ll need a good converter he2. sana magrelease ng yahoo go, wla na ko mahihiling pa he2
i just got a good video converter and it works great. i can watch all the movies i want just like watching in portable dvd players less the size he2 abt 30mins/movie convert na. Hope all of you will get one he2. p.s. update nyo naman ako if may bago lalo for yahoo messenger mobile, as of now kasi wla pa. cheers
where can i buy that phone worth P18,300?
which do you prefer? samsung omnia or nokia 5800?
thanks for the reply.
great mobile phone! perfomance, feature, size & price wise. hope yahoo go! will release one for 5800 and nokia will release a good video converter for this mobile.
sorry single_joy, d2 sa dubai q nabili. pag may relatives ka or kakilala d2, pabili ka nalang pag di mo maantay release dyan. wla daw release ang hungary or finland ng 5800. lahat daw china, 1 color palang available d2, red.
mid or end of january daw launch sa pinas, pero ang release baka end pa ng january. mag-ingat po sa pagbili, kasi may lumabas na na fake, dual sim ang fake. halos di mo malalaman if fake sya. para makasiguro, buy po kayo sa mga official dealer ng nokia with warranty pa. di ko lang sure if supported na ng mga network natin ang 3g ng 5800, sana nga po para may silbi 3g he2. 3g is working fine d2 sa dubai, kausap ko fam q dyan sa pinas, n80 gamit nila, 5800 ako, no hassle.
i still prefer nokia 5800 kesa samsung omnia. cguro dahil din sa features, i’ve tried some samsung cp ng mga kakakilala ko, wla pa nakasatisfy sa kin, madamot ang samsung thats what i call it, kulang kasi lagi sa feature, sorry. if you want a better phone, check mo n97, kaso wla pa sa market, mid 2009 pa yata he2. the only cp that you can compare with 5800 now is iphone. i’ve compared it too, kaso mas prefer ko pa 5800 in general even though i’m an avid fan of apple, sorry for me, can’t afford the price he2.
@rnob2
where did you got it at a price of 18300??Greenhills? share it naman so we can save money.. thanks
dubai ko sya nabili. expected release price sa pinas nasa P21K yata & to be released around end of january, speculations palang to, mas maigi siguro if wait mo nalang lumabas dyan, depende din kasi sa tax na ipapatong. re: omnia, its more on a pda, not like 5800, is just a regular mobile phone with lots of features, except window mobile and yahoo go. for it’s price and features, it’s worth it. para makasiguro ka, bili ka na lang sa nokia official dealer. baka fake pa mabili mo. sayang lang pera mo. try mo din check sa mga dealers dyan baka meron na sila update.
you can chek the photo on mybloglog…
try to check it on ebay. you can buy it for P21,500
you can plug your 5800 to tv. lahat ng nakikita mo sa cp yon din lalabas. pra ka na rin naka big screen. from music to movies, txt, inet lahat. prang dvd player na din sya, you can watch your movies on tv. cool
got a nokia 5800 express music @ tipidcp. 21,5k. works fine, no problems encountered. it may not be an iphone killer totally, pero solid to, good phone. just search the site, tipidcp.com “want to buy section”
What is the video covertor u use for nokia 5800..
waah.. i cant wait to have that cute fone.. where can i buy it for the cheaper price like 18k? thanks for the reply..
yey! sa jan 10 puwede nang makabili (ata) for PHP19990!
claiming pala ng pre-ordered units. pero baka ganung presyo din di ba?
Got my 5800 last nite… first impression is really good… i love the phone… as i was checking through it i cant help but fall in love with it more…
wEeE…at last i have it nah…kakapagod mgpila kahapon…nasa ika 103 ako n nkapila… i have blue 5800 grabe! dami pumila kahapon… pero ok sila meron snack hahaha
maganda nga pala talaga.
meron na ako ng 5800!! pero may prating p akong cellphone next week, kaya ibbenta ko muna ung 5800 ko.. original ito.. bought it from nokia store.. complete accessories, ni hindi ko p nggalaw ung laman ng box. inopen lng nmin para mregister sa Universal Music for the free 450 songs/video downloads. at para mcheck n rin qng complete ung laman.. im selling mine for P24000. may warranty pa to, one year.. contact me: Lyanntw2ntyei8ht@yahoo.com // +639179180123 if youre interested…
review ko: ang cute ng phone, xmpre, first time ko magka touchphone, pro compared sa motoxing na cp ng friend, mas okay to.. di ko p xa mxdo na explore kasi nga im planning to sell it…
panu makukuha ung free songs. panu magregister.
Wen ang nokia 5800 ma release sa iloilo???? Ma buy ko….
at magkano ang price????
bakit ang mahal nyan,dito kc sa cebu its only 20,999 kaya lang dpa daw nila i release sa market kc hindi pa nag launch sa cebu..january 16,2009 cebu innternational convention center ang launching featuring Hed Kandi, Andy Daniels,Johnboy Lee….Door charges:P500 FOR VIP TABLES PLS CALL 09218380133
available na pla sa iloilo at 19,990… bibili ko sana pero iphone nalang bilhin ko… ang liit kasi ng 5800… same size sila ng N95.
meron na ako. nabili ko sa dubai… infairness, much user friendly than i-phone,.. easy sharing sa lahat ng files unlike i-phone na pinagdadamot pati siftware…
what matters is yung benefits na maibibigay ng more affordable na tube kesa sa “porma lang” of the i-phone ns sobra mahal… meron na ako i-phone,but i find its features useless here in the philippines… lets FACE THE TRUTH MGA TOL.. TAYONG PINOY MAHILIG SA MAS MURA PERO MAGANDA DAHIL SULIT.
mga pinoy tlga..mhilig s show off….
design is fabulous.looks like iphone.features are really good..
i liked this music edition from nokia.

hello guys. ang dami qng pinuntahan na site o blogs regarding sa 5800. d pa rin aq matahimik bakit sa mga blogs meron na daw update phone natin from v11 to v20 pero dito pinas wala pa . kanina lang may nabasa aq qng bakit wala pa din update dito sa pinas. at sa nabasa q our phone daw is a branded handset. at ung nauupdate daw ay ang mga vanilla handset na originally designed by nokia.
There are different product codes and hence different software versions..
read nyo na lang for more info
http://linux.sgms-centre.com/nokiafaq//branded-phones/

Got my Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phone last March 23 for PhP 17,990 at a famous phone shop here in Ormoc City, Leyte. I love the phone. The features are so great. My advice to owners- just use the “night portrait”mode when taking pictures indoor so that you can still have a great quality shots as outdoor shots.

its better if you bought the phone in nokia store cause they got the warranty and full customer support.And one thing to remember! don’t buy a phone that came from hongkong or china. its not good cause that country knows for piracy!
check the amazon.com if you want to buy a cheap nokia 5800 express music its just only gonna cost you 301 dollars.

hello everyone, i bought my 5800 last january here in bahrain, i was seriously considering an iphone before i got my nokia, good thing i didnt buy an iphone, the nokia 5800 is a hell of a lot better in features and performance, the music player is way much better than any ipod or iphone, you may need to purchase a good pair of headphones to enjoy the full potential of its audio quality, although the standard nokia headphones are quite good also, im quite happy with this phone, its really a good value for its price.
hello everyone i got it for 11k only
good look ang very friendly user
Just bought recently,contented with it. Its an absolute media player and phone gadget. Very happy with it, and its undeniable cheaper nowadays.
@leo

Nokia 5800?(not china phone)
can someone txt me..
09179085471
I need new phone!!!
thanx
right now its about 14-13k brand new dunno if its china but more or less thats the pice ive seen around… got mine around 22k when it got out. it has its ups and downs but im pretty much satisfied with it.. camera is just dry in colors not for night mode if you like taking shots at night better in daylight specially in good lighting conditions… (if ur looking for camera fones idd better go with ericson or a samsung) Sound quality is great just replace the head phones coz their downright bad… (got myself a bluetooth headset) hope that satisfies ur curiosity…
All 5800 were made from china, that’s what nokia informed me. I got mine from dubai, and it’s china made. It really works well and satisfied me, just a few glitch with the camera though it’s just 3.15mp, but try using night portrait when taking pictures at night. My brother just bought his 5800 here in Manila, kaso nagko-corrrupt ng files at nagdedelete. Na-update nya pero di magamit ang secondary cam for 3g or picture taking. Dinala sa nokia for service. It took them a week to repair at QC daw. Pagbalik sa bro ko yong unit, ok na. Pero pagdating sa bahay ganun din after few hours sira uli. Binalik uli sa nokia for repair, sira daw board at secondary cam. Papalitan daw nila pyesa. Come to think of it brand new unit binili mo, tapos irerepair lang nila and it will take 2-3 weeks para sa pyesa. Sayang lang pinambili ng brand new, mas maigi pa siguro 2nd hand nalang….
Before buying nokia products, please ask the seller if they will replace the unit if found defective and not repair/replace parts. If they will only repair it, it’s like you bought a recon cellphone for the price of brand new, it’s not worth your money. Just what Nokia Philippines wants after I bought a nokia 1202 which they found out to be defective and it will take them 2-3 weeks, same with my brothers brand new 5800. Luckily the shop where I bought the 1202 informed me that they will replace the unit if found defective with in 7 days after you bought the unit. P.S. all my phones are nokia, but most of them were bought abroad and never had a problem compared to those bought here in the Philippines which were defective.
@RIK…dapat d pumayag kapatid mo na i repair lng kasi brand new binili once na open nila un parang 2nd hand na lang kasi nabuksan na. Dapat ininsist nya na palitan tutal binili ng defective d namn sya ang nakasira. Siguro nga mga phone sa Philippines mga defective, my nokia 5800 that i bought here in italy and made in Hungary, it runs well, and i can use secorndary cam while chatting tru skype.
Tnx Dee. Wala naman tayo magagawa kasi wala naman tayo lakas sa kanila. Sila ang may hawak sa atin, alam mo naman dito sa Pinas, pag wala ka pera, wala ka, pag maliit ka lang, inaapakan ka lang. Sales nila ang priority, not service… cheers!!!
@RIK…un ang mali sa mga ibang pinoy,d i excercise un rights of customer. I try nya muna kung i aaccept un reklamo nya kung d sya pansinin pede sya pumunta or tumawag sa DTI humingi ng tulong. Dapat kasi matigil na un ganun gawain mga pinoy na kung ano ibigay un na d na lumaban. Binayaran mo un gusto mo makuha d un kung ano un gusto nila ibigay sau. Un sinasabi mo pag maliit ka lng at walang pera e inaapakan ka lang…ang tanong ko pare bakit ka mag papaapak sa knila kung alam mo namn nasa tama ka. Anyways, payo ko lng nmn un….
sana i can buy that soon
@dee. tnx pre, as of now, we already received the brand new recon of 5800 from nokia customer care atc(they replaced the broken part of the brand new unit). tnx for your concern. i hope this blog will help our kababayan in buying new nokia phones. p.s. may mga shop na nagpapalit ng unit if found defective with in 7days of purchase.
Good Day,
Mga sir, ok pa rin ba to ngayon? 5800? Quality? And price? Thanks..
ok na sya specially if updated na un firmware, ver.31 na un sken and so far so good havent seen any bugs yet since i updated using OTA on the phone. medyo bumilis na din un reaction time nya compared before na madalas nag-hang. Im still testing the firmware with other apps also and unti-unti na din dumadami un mga apps na pede idownload sa 5800xm not compared before, nakakatuwa na syang phone..hehe
ooh ok thanks.. like what po na mga apps? any link or tips? thanks again..
@kai…you can update un firmware via wifi or in pc suite….
Im from imus, cavite. San kya makakabili ng nokia 5800 in its cheaper price? Thanks!
