PRODUCT INFORMATION:
The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic slider stands out from the crowd. The phones music is stored on a microSD card with up to 2GB of capacity .
It is a tri-band GSM phone with GPRS/EDGE. The TFT LCD screen can work with the 1.3 megapixel camera, or for messaging with the built-in IM software. Bluetooth, FM radio and dedicated music keys are other features on the $320 phone. Nokia says the phone will hit select markets within weeks.
The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic offers a comprehensive feature set , including support for up to 2 GB of memory and dedicated music keys at an accessible price. Never before has it been as easy or affordable for consumers to own a mobile phone that also offers a first-rate music experience that compares favorably to any stand-alone music player. With this product launch, we are emphasizing the benefits of the XpressMusic feature brand, which clearly labels those Nokia devices that guarantee an outstanding mobile music experience.
The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic can be slid open with one hand, assisted by a spring mechanism that stand up to heavy usage, and clicks firmly in place both in the open and closed position. With everyday wear-and-tear in mind, the handset can stand up to being dropped multiple times. At 3.76 ounces, it's lightweight but sturdy. Covered in black rubber in the midsection, the same kind of material is used on some sturdier Sprint Nextel walkie-talkie models.
With an LCD display that is one of the most practical on the market, four buttons appear below the screen when the 5300 is closed; along with the Toggle Key with an OK / Menu button in the center. Consumers can use the Camera and Music Player, silence the phone or change the ringtone, receive text messages and access voice mail all without sliding the phone open. Since there are so few buttons around the screen, Nokia manufactured them large enough to easily find without having to look down at the phone. The QVGA, 262K-color display measures 2.0-inches (320 x 240 px resolution).
An inconvenience, users have to remove the back cover to access the microSD slot. The cover also protects the camera lens with a transparent coating, so photographers don't have to remove the back cover to snap a photo. Furthermore, directly to the right of the lens is a small circular mirror to help aim the camera should users take photos with themselves in it. Above the memory card slot, in the top left corner is the Headset Jack, accessible without having to remove any parts.
When the phone is closed the Power Key, Charger Jack and USB Port are all located at the top, but sliding the 5300 open, and those connections shift to the bottom half. For those who exercise, a loop to attach a Hand Strap is positioned on the top right corner.
Functionally simple, the keys are standard - not iPod style scrolls or sticky buttons. Four color coded keys surround the Toggle Key / OK / Menu buttons, making functions easy to remember. The top two buttons (blue), are selection keys, with the top right key also functioning as a back button. The bottom left (green) and right keys are for sending and ending calls respectively. This all takes a bit of getting used to. The menu, however, is standard and easy to follow.
