Nokia takes on Apple and Google

Three touch screen phones compared…

Nokia announced their Nokia 5800 Xpress Music 640×360 touch screen phone (above) a few days ago… also called the Tube, this music phone comes with the Nokia Comes With Music 1-year no limits music subscription service. The Tube/5800 will be available later this year, specs here.

And then there’s the T-Mobile G1 Android-based 480×320 touch screen mobile phone, available in a few weeks on October 22 2008.

TechRader compares the 5800 and the G1 to the original touch screen phone, the Apple iPhone. Areas of comparison were Home screen, media, OS, internet, gaming, camera, maps, texting and email. The verdict: a tie between the G1 and the iPhone.

I’m a little surprised the G1 compared so well to the iPhone, but it’s certainly been a global hit.

I’m not surprised at all about the G1. This phone was probably one of the early signals of the Android’s momentum.
