Nokia 5310 XpressMusic Reviews

PCMag reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

” the 5310 provides decent Internet connectivity. T-Mobile’s OZ instant-messaging and e-mail clients have been improved from earlier iterations… if you want an inexpensive, attractive T-Mobile phone you can groove to, slip a 5310 into your pocket.”

MobileTechReview reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

“Pro: Thin and sleek looking phone. Great audio quality. 1GB microSD card and stereo wired headset included. USB cable included for side-loading music. A good web browser and a decent camera. Con: Voice recognition doesn’t work well out of the box. Number keys and d-pad are too slippery. Not quad band, missing the 900MHz band used heavily in Europe. ”

Mobileburn reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

“The 5310 is an attractive, ultra-slim phone from Nokia. Although not particularly basic, neither is it hugely feature-rich when compared to other phones on the market. Instead, it excels at the task it was designed for – being a very pocketable phone that plays music well…Pros: Good sound quality, ultraslim form factor, comfortable keypad. Cons: Dated UI, poor camera”

SMH reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

“It’s one of the few phones to sport a standard 3.5-millimetre audio jack, giving you the freedom to use your own headphones such as noise-cancelling earbuds, and the only phone we know of with a bespoke audio processing chip to reproduce your music crisply and clearly. This also helps to keep the music playing smoothly while you carry out other tasks, such as sending text messages or using the two-megapixel camera.”

GSMarena reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

“The display of Nokia 5310 is a 2″ with QVGA resolution, capable of showing up to 16M colors. It excels in picture quality and legibility under direct sunlight. On the other hand, we would have liked it if it was bit larger. ”

CNET UK reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

“The sound quality is impressive, although you’ll probably want to replace the standard headphones that come with the phone, as they’re not as good as they could be. However, replacing the headphones is made easy by the standard 3.5mm headphone jack found at the top of the phone. ”

TrustedReviews reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

“The default black, red and white theme looks good on the 320 x 240 pixel, 16 million colour, 2.0-inch screen, and beneath this the number pad keys are individually shaped and curved upwards towards their centres, making them easy to press at speed…The camera is a less positive story. It has a 2-megapixel lens which puts it squarely in the average camp. It lacks autofocus, self portrait mirror or flash, and when framing photographs you have to hold the phone still to avoid your subject looking very blurred on screen.”

Conita reviews the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic and writes;

“Combining a sleek appearance and packed with wonderful features, it certainly provides its user with much value. If the Nokia 5310 is any indication, the future of the Express Music series looks and sounds better than ever! ”
