Parting Shots: Nokia 5310

Our detailed review of the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic phone is now complete. What did we think of the tiny phone that promises to be your music BFF? Well, we loved the external music controls and the music player software is pretty good and allows you to make playlists and organize your music right on the phone. If you're the type who listens to music from dusk 'til dawn, you'll enjoy the decent music playback battery life of the 5310. But the budding photographers among you will not be so happy with the 5310 with its poor camera resolution and the eons it takes for a photo or video to be saved to memory, and we were disappointed that it can't play many video file formats at all. It has basic organizer functions help you keep your life in order, but you'll have to hunt down a way to sync it with your computer. The good news is that it costs only $49.99 when purchased online and comes with all the accessories you need to make the 5310 fit the bill as your digital music player, and is a pretty good value as a result.

Markus Terho, Nokia's director of environmental affairs, said in a statement: "It is clear from this survey that, when mobile devices finally reach the end of their lives, very few of them are recycled. Many people are simply unaware that these old and unused mobiles lying around in drawers can be recycled, or [don't know] how to do this.

Parting Shots: Nokia E66
Added on 2008-06-26 10:19:00
by Alfredo Padilla

We spent the last week with the Nokia E66 and have published our full review. We have to say that we found ourselves liking the phone a lot. The improvements that Nokia has made to the organizer applications are significant, the 3.2 megapixel camera is a big step up over the two megapixel shooter on the E65 and GPS with Nokia Maps 2.0 is a really nice feature. We also found the hardware very easy to use with a couple of notable exceptions, the volume keys are terrible for example. Still, when you use the device for awhile you come away impressed. The problem is that you won't be able to use this device for very long because a combination of a small battery, just 1000 mAh, and 3G connectivity means that the battery life is terrible. We were only able to manage three hours of talk time on the E66, and for a business device that needs to get through a full day of hard use this just isn't acceptable.
