Top 10 Nokia 5800 Cases

The Nokia 5800 Xpress Music was a the first touchscreen phone from Nokia.  It’s an extremely popular handset that is geared towards music, photo’s and messaging. If you’ve got one, you’re going to want to keep it protected from knocks and scrapes. There are a wide range of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic cases available, but which style is right for you and which one should you go for? I’ve put our top selling Nokia 5800 cases to the test to see which ones do the best job of protecting your phone.

1. Nokia 5800 Alu-Leather Case
Alu-Leather cases are made from high quality leather and aircraft grade aluminium to provide a tough case that looks great.  The case is specifically made for the Nokia 5800 and has cut outs on the back for the camera, so there is no need to remove your phone when you want to use it.  The fold down cover on the case has space for 2 bank cards, and has an inner layer of aluminium to protect your screen against impact and crush damage. This is by far our most popular case as it offers the best protection for your screen.

2. Nokia 5800 FlexiShield Skin
The back of your Nokia 5800 might start to scratch.  FlexiShield Skins for the Nokia 5800 are thicker and tougher than normal Silicone Cases and will certainly give your 5800 more bounce if you drop it!  It has a non slip feel to it and covers all of the back of the handset, leaving the camera free for you to take your photos.  It doesn’t cover the screen though, so you’ll need to invest in a Nokia 5800 screen protector if you want to prevent your screen from getting scratched.

3. Nokia 5800 InvisibleSHIELD
The InvisibleSHIELD is more than just a screen protector.  Not only does it cover the front screen of the Nokia 5800, it also includes the same tough protective film for the back of your phone. Installation takes a little bit longer than a normal screen protector, but the end result is well worth it.  It covers almost all of your phone and will withstand the toughest of scrapes.  The InvisibleSHIELD has a matte finish with a non slip feel to it. It is great at repelling fingerprints and reducing reflections and most importantly doesn’t affect the sensitivity of the touch screen. As the InvisibleShield doesn’t add any extra bulk to the 5800, you can use in in conjuction with most Nokia 5800 Cases and Skins.

4. Nokia 5800 Krusell Classic Case
The Krusell Classic case for the Nokia 5800 is another phone specific case. It protects all of your phone, with no chance of it falling out of the case thanks to its zip fastening.  The full plastic cover makes this case ideal for those working in dirty/dusty environments. The rear of the case has a fold down cover that protects the camera lens from dirt and scratches and a Multidapt clip that allows you to attach different mounting clips.  A belt clip is included as standard.

5. Nokia CP-305 Carry Case for 5800 Xpress Music
This case is the same one that might have been in the box when you bought your phone.  The design of the case incorporates a series of holes on both sides of the case that let you see if you have any calls or messages without having to remove your phone from the case.

6. Nokia 5800 Executive Case – Book Style
If you want your phone to do more than just carry your phone then this could be the case for you.  Your phone is held securely in place with durabel plastic clips, and on the inside of the cover you’ll find space for bank cards and a spare styles. The case is made from soft leather with white stitching.

7. Nokia 5800 Orbit Flex Case
Krusell make some great cases, and the Orbit Flex range is one of their most popular.  They are designed specifically for touchscreen phones and allow quick and eay access to your phone with out adding any unneccesary bulk.  They have a soft touch lining that helps keep your screen clean while its in the case, as well as storage space for additional memory cards. All Krusell Cases work with the Multidapt range of accessories so you can find the right mounting option for your phone.

8. Nokia 5800 Silicone Case
Silicone Cases are a cost effective way of looking after your phone.  While they don’t protect your phone against knocks as much as a FlexiShield will, they will prevent damage from light knocks and scrapes.

9. Nokia CP-301 Carry Case for Nokia 5800 XpressMusic
This is a really unique case for the 5800.  It’s a leather case with a wrap around front – making a nice change from the standard flip down style cases.  It protects all sides of your phone and when closed it completely covers the screen too. There isn’t a way to attach it to your belt, but it comes with a lanyard that you can attach to your phone. The camera is not covered so there is no need to remove it from the case when you want to take photos.

10. Nokia 5800 Crystal Case
A Crystal Case is an extremely popular way of protecting your phone.  While they aren’t as strong or durable as the FlexiShield, they will still prevent your phone from getting scratched.  In the event that you do drop your 5800, crystal cases are designed to take the impact instead of your phone, it may mean you need a new crystal case, but you won’t need a new phone.  The Nokia 5800 Crystal Case covers all of your phone apart from the screen, camera and charging ports. To protect the screen we’d recommend using a Nokia 5800 Screen Protector.

This isn’t the full range of cases, just a selection of the ones that we think do the best job of protecting your phone.  If you’ve not seen a case here that does what you want, then take a look at all of our Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Cases, or suggest a case that we should be selling using the comments form below!
