Nokia announced that they have just shipped the 1 million Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phones making it one of their more successful phones to date.
Even though it hasn’t been released all over the globe, impressive sales in particular regions like Hong Kong, Moscow and no doubt, the Philippines as well has helped the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic attain this feat at such a short amount of time.
The 5800 XpressMusic has been closely watched because of its potential to rival Apple's iTunes in popularity, especially in Europe.
“The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic has been received very positively and this milestone is further proof that people all over the world want a device that is not only a great music experience, but makes the most of touch-screen technology," said Jo Harlow, VP Nokia.
The phone, which sports a 3.2-inch screen, a 3.2 megapixel camera and supports Flash-based browsing for the web went on sale in October 2008 in just a few countries including Russia and Hong Kong. The 5800 XpressMusic is went on sale in UK a few days ago and is available in the US only as an unsubsidized and unlocked phone.
