Nokia 5130 XpressMusic


Designed as an entry-level music phone, the Nokia 5130 XpressMusic offers remarkably good value for money at just €90 (around £70) before tax and subsidy. For this relatively modest sum, you get a phone with an MP3 player, microSD expandable memory (with 1GB in the standard sales package), a 2" 240 x 320 pixel display, 2 megapixel camera
, Bluetooth, an FM radio and a standard 3.5mm audio socket. There are dedicated media keys on the side plus quite visible stereo speakers.

The Nokia 5130 XpressMusic is a quad-band GSM phone with GPRS and EDGE data. It is relatively lightweight at 88 grams, and the 5130's overall measurements are 108 x 47 x 15mm. Battery life is pretty good with a maximum of 6 hours talktime and 12 days standby time.

It's an impressive package for the money, and it looks really attractive too. The biggest drawback that we can see is that the Q1 2009 launch date means that the 5130 XpressMusic won't be available for Christmas.
