Nokia 5730 XpressMusic

By Joseph Hanlon on 12 March 2009

Nokia's 5730 XpressMusic is like the mullet of mobile phones; business up front, party out the back. This mix of business and consumer features will be welcomed by some, but could leave the 5730 in a techno-limbo.

    OH and, the two main front keys (right and left top corners) are a bit too small, theyre hard to press and i keep on accidentally hitting the menu quickstart button on the left or the clear button on the right.

    • Good: it has everything you could need =D
    • Bad: screen is a little too slow when switching between portrait and landscape, speakers aren't as strong as an xpress music should be.

    this phone is awesome! im really happy with it, although there are a few things that could be better in it, such as the speakers and perhaps the battery life. but all in all this is an awesome phone, its a perfect combination of all that i really want and use in a phone.

    This is the best fone I have ever seen and in my opinion is far more better than the nokia 5800, my mom has the 5800 and i sometimes use it play play some songs, use the wifi and get really frustrated coz it keeps on freezing even if texting and i got tired of using the touchscreen.

    I really hope I will be getting it on my birthday which is in about 4 days..I'm excited by just the thought of having this phone..

    • Good: Very versatile, easy to use, 3.5mm jack, keyboard, GPS, WiFi, Memory, Solid feel even though "plastic"
    • Bad: Nothing to say, maybe fingerprints

    I really like this phone, I won't be dazzeled by the touch screen phone models and am happy to go the traditional way of buttons :-)))
