Nokia 5310


The Nokia 5310 is a fantastic addition to Nokia's growing range of Xpress Music phones. Combining sleek looks with dedicated music functionality, the 5310 is a great update to its predecessor, the 5300.
It's an ultrathin phone, at just 9.9 mm, and has a lovely practical design with a good sized conventional keypad and a 5-way navigation key. The music phone is available in a choice of red or blue.
The music player has support for playlists, album art and an equalizer.
But the 5310 is not just a music phone. As well as making calls and playing music, it will do everything that you'd expect from a mid-range non-3G phone. The camera is a respectable 2 megabytes. It lacks a flash, which is a shame, but in good light it'll take decent pictures.
Although the phone isn't 3G, it supports fast downloads using EDGE and has the Opera Mini Browser built-in, so you can still browse the web, and the screen is large enough to make this feasible.
Encased in a 9.9mm thin aluminum shell and featuring a MP3 player, dedicated music chip for quality sound, a 3.5mm audio jack, and up to 2GB of storage, it really is big on sound but small in the pocket
This is definitely a phone that you can enjoy even when it's switched off, and it's small and light enough to carry anywhere - jeans pocket, shirt pocket or handbag.
