Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is the first touchscreen phone based on the S60 platform (5th edition). It costs about half the iPhone’s price, and is consequently aimed at a more mainstream mass audience. Nokia 5800 also have large touch screen with accelerometer. Even though it focused for music, can we use Nokia 5800 as a powerful N-Gage device?

Well, first of all, PocketGamer.co.uk confirms that N-Gage is indeed coming to the 5800. There’s enough screen resolution to do it and the controls could be replicated with on-screen ones and/or perhaps the accelerometer (it’s needed for changing screen orientation just like on the iPhone) so that can work as a gaming control. The platform is also very similar to S60 3rd Edition which is what N-Gage games are written for at the moment, so existing N-Gage developers wouldn’t have too much trouble writing for the 5800.
