Tags: nokia, dedicated, battery life, headphones
We like:
Funky design; easy to use; good music features
We don't like:
Poor camera; below par battery life; awful headphones
CNET UK judgement:
The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic may look quite funky and have decent music features, but it's let down by a relatively poor camera and short battery life. If you want a phone that lets you listen to tunes on the go there are much better options out there
