Yes, it's the long awaited part 2 of Rafe's definitive hands-on preview of the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, a.k.a. the 'Tube', this time covering all aspects of multimedia, from camera to Web to games. The touchscreen and wide display make for a unique form factor among Nokia's current line-up, and Rafe leaves no stone unturned in his quest to evaluate the device.

Extract:

"With its XpressMusic moniker, it'll be no surprise that the 5800 is an extremely capable music device. It ticks the important boxes on the hardware front: 3.5 mm audio jack, fast USB transfers (Hi-speed), stereo Bluetooth (A2DP, AVRCP), stereo speakers, and decent capacity (8GB out of the box). The stereo speakers are able to output a surprising high volume, though the sound quality is best at half-volume. Sound quality is very good, though, as ever, you'll need to replace the in-box headphones to make the most of it.

The third part of the preview will be available later this week or early next week.
