Nokia Tube: UK’s Best Selling Portable Music Player
Nokia’s new adverts in UK claims that Nokia 5800 is the new highest selling portable music player. According to GFK Retail and Technology data, the Nokia 5800 was the top device in both volume and value in Q1 of 2009 in the UK. This makes it the best selling portable music player beating even the Apple Ipod.
The touch phone has well placed itself as a phone cum mp3 player in the market. Nokia 5800’s mega success has surprised the competitors, analysts and even the manufacturers. Nokia’s CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo recently said that the sales figures for 5800 are well beyond their expectations and this device has a potential to become the most sold Nokia phone EVER.
The latest adverts in UK says it all-
‘Nokia 5800: UK’s No. 1 Selling Portable Music Player’
Meanwhile, retailers reported stock shortages on the product in UK. The manufacturer has acknowledged the initial ‘capacity’ problems with the product due to unexpected high demands. Nokia says the N5800 phone is now shipping at one million units per month globally and it now accounts for 20% of all touchscreens sold worldwide.
Nokia’s ‘comes with Music‘ service has also gained a decent user base of 23,000 so far in UK which is increasing sharply.
