Much thinner than 5800

It appears that Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia is readying a new touchscreen XpressMusic device for us, the Nokia 5900, which has just made it into the wild in a series of supposedly leaked photos. While these photos have great chances of proving real, we must say that this would be one of those rumors that seem to be quite far from the real side of things, so don't be surprised if they prove to be false in the end.

On the other hand, since the pictures are here, we should lay a word on them for you, so that you'll have an idea on what Nokia might prep for us in the near future. For starters, we should say that the new Nokia 5900 XpressMusic is reported to come as the S60 5th edition follower of the popular touchscreen 5800.

Following the said handset, the new 5900 is reported to come with a slimmer form factor, supposedly eliminating the chunky feel of the predecessor, while also including a larger touchscreen, one of 3.5-inches this time. The photo snapper of the phone should also be upgraded, boasting a 5-megapixel resolution, in comparison to the 3.2MP camera on the 5800.

One more thing that can be spotted with the leaked device is the 3.5mm headphone socket on the top, which comes as good news for enthusiasts. As one can easily imagine, the Finnish phone maker hasn't said anything on the handset up until now, so further specs on are not available at the moment. One thing that could happen is for the 5900 XpressMusic to become available in two color options, judging from the pictures.

This would be all that can be said about the handheld for now, so just take a look at the photos that came to us courtesy of mobile.pconline to make an idea on the handset. Hopefully, it won't prove to be just a rumor in the end, so stay tuned to learn more details on the Nokia 5900 XpressMusic as soon as they become available.
