I've been using 5130 since a couple of years and it has never given me any trouble even though i've mishandled it a lot of times. the music options are amazing. the camera is worth the price. the rate is perfectly affordable. the features in it are worth more than the price we pay. an easy and a long-lasting phone.

Phone is nice but nokia software support sucks. The power saver and sleep timer disappeared from Display setting a year and half ago and they still haven;t managed to fix it! THis means phone screen gets blank every 30 seconds unless you do something. Manual says you can adjust this but you cant.

Supplied free by the service providor, Movistar, 12 months ago, this little phone has been great, and I have always been a Motorola person. The camera is good, the music and radio is good, I have a 4g memory card in mine and its loaded with music and videos. Its been marvelous even if the back has always been a poor fit from new.

Xpress music 5130 is dearth cheap for its price. Battery pack up is simply superb and it becomes more clear when it is contrasted with Sony's mobile. Internet opera browser works quite well. Speed is really good. Music quality is superb, extremely clear, and free from that stridulating noise which now a days forms the feature of all the cheap music phones. But headset which comes with this handset is simply pathetic. You should rather use Philips cushion comfort specially meant for this piece. Another negative aspect of this set is its external speakers which tend to get choppy at higher volume. But in ultimate analysis phone is a real masterpiece. Far ahead of its ilks. Gives you the feeling of being in mainstream with thousands of new themes available.

I have had this phone since February 2010 and I love it. My Nokia Flip phone gave up the ghost and I went out and bought the 5130 without doing any of the normal research I do before buying a new phone. I love this phone, great value and would hightly recommend it. It does everything I want from a phone. I paid 115.00 euros as I live in Cyprus, but it was well worth it.

Let me start out by listing the phones bad points. The battery life is awful. The standby time is only a couple of days at best, and it takes over 1 1/2 hours to charge up. Now the good points. The music player is as good as a phone twice the price and i am using a 4gb memory card. I bought mine at ASDA for �85 just before they had a sale and it was reduced to �45. Overall an average kind of phone
