Nokia 5310 XpressMusic user reviews

January 7, 2008

"Almost, but not quite"

What I like:

small size, weight, decent feature set

What I don't like:

apparently original firmware quite buggy

Review:

I'd love to get this phone, but the reviews on other sites scare me off (e.g. the one below).
This is just a software issue that Nokia could easily fix if folks like cnet called them on it. So please do cnet!

Oh my good god. I hate these things. Reason? I work for Carphone Warehouse we've returned almost every single one of these that was ever sold. We've had multiple batches and the phones all do the same thing. If the user has locked their keypad when using the phone and receives a message or a missed call and tries to retrieve it the phone will lock up! There was a stage we had 5 in one day same problem! Avoid in my opinion. I love Nokia's I was using the N95 and 8600 and they are superb, but my god don't buy this 5310! You have been warned.
