Nokia 5800 XpressMusic unboxed!

Finally, we've managed to get our trembling mitts on Nokia's ditty-packed touchscreen tearaway! Yep, we have a 5800 XpressMusic in our possession and we thought we'd share the de-boxing experience with you. So feast your eyes on these lovely snaps.

As for the unboxing and setup experience, we've got a couple of points to make. Choosing the country was a bit of a fiddle - lack of familiarity with the touchscreen and the way the menu worked meant I kept selecting the Vatican or Tobago. It took four attempts in all to get the correct selection.

Also, I put the SIM card in the wrong way up first time round. Obviously Nokia realised this would be a problem as they've put a SIM instruction sheet inside the battery bay (it's the first time I've seen one of these). I reckon people will still mess it up though...

    Please do a review of the 5800. I want to see your thoughts on screens responsiveness and the finger typing abilities with the on screen qwerty.
    I\’ll not be getting the \"Tube\" cause my recently purchased E71 keeps me satisfied. The N97 is another story, it\’s too damned tempting.
