 Great size, great features, average reception August 29, 2008

Size: 5+ stars
This phone is tiny, without being uncomfortable. I can barely tell there is anything in my pocket, it is so thin. That being said, I have pudgy fingers but have no problems messaging with the keypad.
Features: 4 stars
The camera stinks. Yes, it is 2megapixels, but the images are blurry, and the colors can be washed out at times. I am rating this based on other camera phones, not comparing this phone to an actual camera. BUT I didn't get this phone for the camera, I got it for the MP3 player functionality, which is GREAT... It automatically adds any music you add to the microSD card to the library, even if you drag and drop in windows. BLUETOOTH as usual is slow for transfers, but it's there and very handy. Plus you can hook it up to your car stereo wirelessly and listen to your MP3's sans cable. The usual tools are there like calc, alarm, countown and stopwatch, etc.. and some new, very handy newcomers are included, like the converter, which will convert anything - temperature, weight, volume, currency, you name it.. even a 'lifestyle' option, which I'm still not sure what that's converting...
!!!THE DEDICATED MUSIC CONTROL BUTTONS LOCK WITH YOUR KEYPAD!!!
This means that if you have it in your pocket, locked so as not to inadvertently call someone while walking down the street, you can NOT skip tracks/change the volume without unlocking it first. In my opinion this misses the point of dedicated music controls entirely... but whatever, it still eliminates having a whole electronics store worth of stuff in your pockets at any given time.
Reception: 3 stars
Coming from a Nokia 3220, I'm a little disappointed with the reception quality of this phone. I used to get reception anywhere, but now I find that I sometimes have to hunt around for a sweet spot in stores, etc... Don't get me wrong, it's as good or better than most of my friends phones, but I guess I just expected more from Nokia due to my past experience with them.
Conclusion:
I love this phone, am glad that I bought it... and am glad that I debranded so I could use the right soft key as something other than 'T-zones'
If they would make the music keys work while the keypad is locked, I would bump it up to a 5.. and if they made the reception better, I would be even happier.
GREAT SIZE + GREAT FUNCTION + GREAT PRICE = GREAT PHONE
 Five stars and worth every one! July 24, 2008

The Nokia 5310, aka "The Music Xpress", is one nifty little phone! Sure, it's no iPhone, but if you want something that got just about as many bells and whistles for a little less money, you want this phone.
The 5130 is available in purple, orange, red and blue (I own the purple). It's very thin and small, but fits easily in the palm of your hand and doesn't give the impression it's going to fall apart if you look at it cross-eyed.
The buttons are raised up just a bit. The display is bright and vibrant. If you have T-Mobile service with this phone, you'll find it can handle the My Favorites plan just fine, with nice little icons and customizable options fo each person.
The phone has several nifty features, including a 2 megapixel camera that takes good-to-very-good quality pictures. It can also function as a video camera, doing both sound and image. There's no flash or self-portrait mirror, but you can make do. The screen acts as a view finder, of course. There's also four different levels of zoom and several different video effects (like black and white, negative, false color, etc). There's a nifty little mini-USB port you can use to move your files to a computer (assuming you have a cable. Thankfully the phone comes with one).
There's also the usual selection of programs, like a calculator, alarm clock, organizer, etc. The system also comes with a few game demos, none of which are particularly memorable.
Ah, but you want to know about the biggie, right? You want to know all about the music capability!
Well, this phone doesn't disapoint. There's external music controls and an external volume control. You can turn it up loud enough to annoy the people next door if you really try. There's also a headphone jack that, thankfully, allows for normal headphones to be used. I have a neat little set I got on a Delta flight, and they work just fine.
When I bought the phone it came with the USB cable I mentioned earlier, as well as a stereo hands-free headset with a detachable mic, and, joy of joys, a 1 gigabyte memory card! That's a really nice thing to have! I've got quite a bit of music on mine and it isn't even close to being filled. Tiny card, too. About the size of a fingernail.
Overall there's no real reason not to recommend this phone. It's sleek and stylish, has a great price point, comes with plenty of goodies and plays music very, very well. It's worth every penny I paid for it, and that's not something I can often say!
Coolest phone I've ever had. July 21, 2008

Hey i'm only 15, so you may not trust my judgment, but coming from the mouth of one of the new tech-savvy generation might be your best bet. This phone is really cool, there are so many features that makes me wonder how the battery life lasts so long. The MP3 player feature on the phone is really developed, its like having an iPod. There is so much to do on this phone that you'll have to buy one to truly experience it. There is nothing that I do not like.
