Cell Phones : Nokia 5300 XPressMusic

I'm not a heavy cell phone user. In fact, I rarely use a cell phone at all except to get in touch with the wife and kids from time-to-time. So, I basically found this phone to satisify my needs because I don't have to carry around 2 units to listen to music and make that random call from time-to-time. Everyone complains about the battery life and rightfully so. It does burn up quicker than I previous phones I've had, but then again, I didn't use them very often because I rarely make calls. I use this often for the music player which is very good. Comes with a full gig of mini sd storage and it's upgradeable to a full 2 gigs which if more than enough for me. The ear piece on calls can be a little faint sometime so I find the hand-free option clearer for phone calls. Best thing about it is, everyone at my work thinks it's just about the coolest thing they've ever seen. I'm sure the next generation from Nokia will trump this model, but for now, it's the hottest thing on the shelf!!! Hide Full Review

I just bought this phone and I LOVE IT!!! It was only $60 w/ a two year plan w/ T-mobile. The Speakers are amazing, you can use the phone as a boombox.You can also use your headphones, but you need the attachment ( included ). Overall,,,,,,,,,,,GREAT PHONE!!! Hide Full Review

This phone is the best phone I ever bought. The ones i did buy were the Razr, Samsung t619, some old Motorola phones but this one is the BEST... and quote me on that!!

The bad thing is the battery life is below average.. not2mention it took me at least 15 minutes to remove the battery case w/o thinking i'm going to brake the phone Hide Full Review

Try it. Its worth every penny! Its just the phone i've been wanting. Let me tell you, i dreamt of owning the phone and i now have it. No regrets! My friends are just too jealous. Mine even came with this good memory card that allows you to store just anything. Internet access?please try it. This phone just ROCKS!!! Hide Full Review

This little phone is awesome and I am really liking it so far. The sound quality on the phone itself and the MP3 player is what I would expect from something way more expensive. Really handy when it comes to syncing up with my laptop as a storage device (comes with a 1 GIG mini sd) and NOKIA's PC suite software makes accessing the features on the phone pretty easy. Custom wallpaper, MP3 ringtone...from my own files- really like that. I have yet to experience the short battery life that apparently this model is known for but my usage may be less than that of the other reviewers. Great phone. Hide Full Review
