Nokia 5130 Black Red Reviews

The Nokia 5130 is a candy bar style phone that offers a full range of music features, though it is light on most other types of features. If you are on a budget, this is one very affordable mobile, selling for around $30.00.



With the Nokia 5130 Xpressmusic you get a candy bar designed mobile that measures 4.23 x 1.83 x 0.58 inch and weighs 3.10 ounces. This attractive handset features a glossy, black and red finish that is definitely eye catching. The 5130 Nokia cell phone is compact enough to easily slip into your pocket or handbag, and it’s light enough that it feels comfortable to hold in your hand.



The display on this handset measures 2-inches and supports 256,000 colors so pictures will be vibrant, though some graphics might be slightly blurry due to the fact that the screen doesn’t offer an extremely high resolution.



A few of the features that you get with the Nokia 5130 Xpress Music phone include some of the essential functions, such as a phonebook with enough room to keep hundreds of contacts, there is also a vibrate mode, text and multimedia messaging, and an alarm clock, as well as a calendar, a to-do list, and a unit and currency converter. There is also a world clock, a notepad, and a calculator. The advanced features that come built in to the Nokia 5130 Black Red include, a voice recorder, voice commands, and PC syncing, in addition to instant messaging, and web based email. There is also a microSD card slot so that you can expand the phone’s memory up to 2GB.



The Nokia 5130 comes with the standard music player of the Xpressmusic phones that features an easy to use interface, as well as a built in FM radio. There is also a 2-megapixel camera that takes pictures in six different resolutions; in addition, there are several different photography modes included. The camera that comes with the Nokia 5130 Xpressmusic can also record video. The photo quality you get with the camera is good, but not magnificent; the video quality rates about the same.



The call quality you get with the Nokia 5130 Black Red is great, there is a strong signal and voices sound natural. The audio quality of the music player is probably average for a mobile phone, so it’s not great but not too bad either.



The battery life for this phone is rated for 6 hours of talk time and 12 days of standby time. For a budget music phone, the Nokia 5130 Black Red is really a great choice. You get good call quality, some great features, as well as a nice music player, and you get it all for a very reasonable price.
