Nokia 5800 in Blue is Vodafone Exclusive – Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic

Joining the existing Red edition of the Nokia 5800 is a new colour variant of the XpressMusic phone, the blue edition of this new music inspired phone has been launched as a network exclusive by Vodafone in the UK.

This means that consumers will only be able to connect the new Nokia 5800 blue to the range of Vodafone pay monthly tariffs, this somewhat limitates the choice of tariff on offer so consumers cannot compare prices from other networks.

Network exclusive launches are not always in the consumers best interest as the number of packages available is limited to just that one network, as an example the customer may require 400 inclusive minutes per month and 1000 text, in this case Vodafone may offer either 300 or 500 in their packages where as Orange offer the exact deal. This means that the consumer will end up paying extra charges each month as they could not connect the blue Nokia 5800 to their chosen networks tariff.

In this latest situation however their is a compromise, although the Nokia 5800 blue is only available on Vodafone the red edition has been released on O2, Orange and T-Mobile pay mothly packages so as long as the consumer is not too fussy when it comes to the colour of their phone they can get the model they like with the correct number of minutes and text to suit their usage.

Both the red and the blue Nokia 5800 are not completely covered in the colour in their desciption, thankfully both model only change the colur of the surrounding accents so the differences are not too noticeable.

The Nokia 5800 has a dedicated Media Bar meaning mobile entertainment is always on hand. High-resolution widescreen video and superior surround sound, with built0-in stereo speakers and an advanced music player. Download new sounds to the 8GB microSD card, and sync your collection with Nokia Music software for PC.

The Nokia 5800 is the first Nokia phone to feature touchscreen technology, the next model is the flagship Nokia N97 due for release soon. This amazing 3.2″ high-resolution touchscreen looks unlike any other and puts everything at your fingertips. Perfectly proportioned for one hand, featuring responsive fingertip, stylus, or plectrum control, automatic screen rotation, and tactile feedback. With a choice of alphanumeric keypad, full QWERTY keyboard, or handwriting for fast messaging.

The Nokia 5800 Blue edition is likely to stay as a network exclusive mobile phone for some weeks to come, once this initial launch period has expired then the other network operators will be able to offer this music phone on their own tariffs. The red edition Nokia 5800 has been launched on T-Mobile, Orange and O2 tariffs along with a recent release as a Pay As You Go phone, there are further network launches expected in the near future.
