I recently stumbled over this beautiful theme for S60 3rd Edition FP1 and FP2 devices which is simply called Touch. It was created by Yan Flahorn and it seems like his main focus was to get this theme to look as close to the original Nokia 5800 theme as possible.

This theme comes in two colors red and blue. The default wallpaper is black with red or blue vertical, wavelike lines just like the original 5800 themes default wallpaper. Actually, this theme is a perfect copy of the Nokia 5800 theme just in a lower resolution.

There are about 600 icons in this theme. Icons for popular S60 applications are also included in those. And as you would expect, the icons are a carbon copy of our favorite Nokia touchscreen phone. With this many icons most of your favorite apps won’t look like as if they are out of place.

The background of the menus are in a simple black just like you would expect it to be if you are familiar with the 5800. The white font colors complete the simple and clean appearance of this theme. Battery and reception bar are in grey just like the date indicator on the home screen. The analog clock on the home screen is also pretty nice. It is grey at the top and fades slowly to black near the bottom. The simple design continues in the calender. Numbers in white indicate the current month and those in grey the previous or upcoming month.

The only difference between the blue and red version of this theme are the indicating colors while browsing the menus of your phone.

After spending a little bit time with this theme I was really surprised at how flawless it actually seems to be. The icons seem to fit and the font and background colors are perfectly in sync.
