Nokia has unveiled a new 5800 Navigation Edition, a Symbian powered smartphone that follows in the footsteps of the 5800 XpressMusic.
The new device comes with lifetime voice-guided drive and walk navigation licenses. It has Ovi Maps software pre-installed and is expected to provide access to full regional maps with zooming capability.
The latest version of Ovi Maps includes new features such as high-resolution aerial images, 3D landmarks for over 200 cities, terrain maps, weather service, premium travel and events content, and traffic and safety warnings.
The new Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition comes with 3.2-inch widescreen and has a touch user interface. It boasts stereo speakers, playback time of 35 hours, HSDPA internet connection, 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and expandable memory of up to 16GB. The new device also comes with a car charger and a car kit to mount the device while driving along with a navigation license.
The Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition is expected to begin shipping in the third quarter of 2009 at an estimated retail price of €285 before taxes and subsidies.
