Nokia 5310 - Expert Reviews

Review summary: The slim Nokia 5310 XpressMusic, as its name suggests, is a music phone first. The music player is easy to use while the screen looks bright and text looks sharp. The handset supports Bluetooth so you can stream tunes to a wireless headset or speaker syst

Pros: Full-sized headphone socket; decent music player; good screen

Cons: Feels plasticky; no 3G support

Verdict: The 5310 is a decent music handset, but it doesn't offer anything that hasn't been done better elsewhere. We also found the lack of 3G support and plasticky build quality a turn off

Review summary: Decent-enough music phone, nothing spectacular. Music player is fine, as is the radio and basic features. The camera is basic, and Web browsing isn't great because there's no 3G, and it's a small 2-inch screen.

Pros: Thin and light, 3.5 mm jack

Cons: No 3G, Camera

Review summary: nokia 5310 xpressmusic review: The 9.9mm thick 5310, available in the fourth quarter of 2007, offers triband, A2DP Bluetooth and a microSD slot for up to 4GB of song-storing space.

Pros: Music buttons, thin shape, series 40 interface, 2 megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth

Cons: No Ovi connection, not much beyond music features
