ive had this phone for 5 years and it still works great the screen is damaged now but i trod on it about two months ago so that was my fault all in all this phone is actually quite hardwearing and the sound quality and volume are very good even better than my new ipod nano this phone is very reliable and i would probably buy it again if it were still in production lol

I've had my phone for a while but have only recently started using it for music. The phone doesnt recognise folders, so in order to have your tracks played in the right order you must manually change the properties of each track. Also the phone continually fails to recognise all of the tracks, even after multiple attempts at uploading my library followed by reformatting my micro SD. Eventually I was able to upload most of my tracks, but when I went to change them I had to reformat again which ruined my Micro SD for some bizarre reason. After buying a new 2 GB Micro SD I have the same problem where only about 60 tracks are recognised. I would not recommend this phone to be used as a walkman.

I realized some people never review their phones if they work well, because they're too busy being happy with their working-mobile, So this is my quick contribution to the 5300 reviews.. I've had this phone now for the better part of 4 years and only days ago the LCD broke. It's true that you should be careful not to drop this phone but no more than any other; I dropped it a few times over the years and it only ever scratched the screen, barely noticeable. This phone has been great and dependable and well worth buying, the only faults I have noticed after its many years of use are that the battery life drains rather quickly and that's whether you use it as an mp3 or not and the internet coverage isn't the best (but that could just be down to my network) Don't be worried about it breaking, it's a great phone.

Bought this on Ebay. From the start, the speaker would be really loud when the phone would ring when I was calling someone, but then it's like it would quiet itself or something. You have to hold the phone JUST RIGHT to hear people, but putting it on speaker phone is great and nice and loud. Unfortunately, ONE DROP cracked the screen, as seems to be very common w/ this phone. GET A PROTECTIVE CASE of some kind. About a month into it, the charger port stopped working, now if I want to charge my phone, I have to manually push the charger in really hard to get it to charge. Also, the slider part is very loose and this phone is starting to drop calls CONSTANTLY. Be very leary of where you buy this. I bought on ebay for about 80 dollars US and the seller I bought it from is no longer a registered ebay user. The phone is crap but I give 2 stars just for the great volums, it's really loud only when on speakrer. Oh yeah, when sending a text, it's easy to accidentally SEND t he message before your done typing because of the way it is designed.

I had this phone and i was quite pleased with it however, it wasn't brilliant. My multimidia messages didn't work and i found that it was very delicate for such a bulky phone. I dropped it on the floor of the coach and that was it. The screen totally broke. My brother also had the same phone and within 3 months his screen was broken completely aswel. Also after i had the phone for about 9 months, it froze often and took a long time to open folders and messages. Overall it was quite good with good games, speakers, space and camera.

DO NOT BUY - design fault with screens means they crack & fail after a few months. Vendors will not replace them they say you broke it by mishandling. Not true see google its a design fault which is why its been withdrawn & was sold cheaply to get rid of it. Poor soumd & low light camera. If it breaks ask for money back in UK under Sale of Goods act 2002. Zero star.

i have had my nokia 5300 for about 6 months and i could say that i am a satisfied user. although the headset that came in with the package is not that excellent (the sound quality is greatly reduced by background noises i.e. when riding on a bus or walking on a busy street), i've switched to the regular-sized 3.5mm headphones. the camera does not have flash or led so i also have trouble taking pictures at night. but the screen resolution is great. photos taken with ample light, and videos converted to 3gp or mp4 are excellent. very nice colors. also, games are readily available on the web without fear of downloading a virus because it is java based. twice i slept with this phone under me (once with the slide open) but it did not break. i also dropped it, face down, but it did not also break. there are scratches on the screen but i guess it boild down to how a user takes care of his phone. all-in-all, i say that nokia 5300 is an excellent buy! for a phone within its price range, i'd recommend it over other walkman phones.

have to wonder how many reviewers on this site get the phone out of the box and write a review within a week saying how outstandingly good it is. the camera is reasonable; it's got a nice loud speaker; the annoying issue with the keylock can be fixed by customising it once you figure out how (try reading the manual)HOWEVER (1) the coils in the headphones burnt out after about 2 months of use :-( and (2) having had this phone for about 6 months the music player software developed some kind of glitch. i updated the software thinking this would remedy it, now when i try to use music player it just crashes completely. the nokia website makes no mention of this issue. there are many questions on their forum asking how to remedy it but no constructive replies. as i had the phone unlocked it is no longer under warantee.... in any case, 2 months after the music player issue developed the screen is malfunctioning (colours all bleached out/no red)... so i think now i'll be selling it for spares or repair. bear in mind i was previously the proud owner of a nokia 3310 which lasted me for years. i'm not one of these people who buys a new phone every year and even if i was, well, this ain't even lasted a full year. disappointed.

Had my 5300 for about a year now and i must say it isn't half bad. My previous phone was a LG KG800 which is nothing but a pretty piece of plastic w/ number dials on it. The 5300 is definitely not the prettiest phone, but its actually designed very nicely. The slide mechanism is extremely smooth, the keypad is very easy to use, and the side buttons are very convenient for quick music play. On the other hand, the batteries lasted only a day and a half, the phone will not auto-lock after you slide it back(VERY VERY ANNOYING), and it only has a 2.5mm jack which to me defeats the purpose of it being an XpressMusic phone. Never the less, i do like this phone better than my old LG.

This phone is absolutely rubbish.All Nokia 5300 phones should be taken of the shelves in shops and crushed. This is the second one my daughter has had in 12 months and both screens went.T Mobile sent the second one away but will not repair it as they say that it has been dropped.It was not dropped the screen started to freeze and then just went blank as my daughter was listening to her music.It seem's to be a trend of T Mobiles to use the dropped excuse as I have read in other forums.There is not a mark on this phone at all, so how can they insinuate that it has been dropped? T Mobile's customer service is absolutely disgusting.Never mind I will just get back in touch with Consumer Direct for the second time and I suggest everyone else should who have had poor dealings with T Mobile. All you people who think this is a great phone beware, it will easily break in the end and don't expect any customer service from Nokia and especially T Mobile! Nokia should be making phones of more durability and not blame consumers for their mistakes!!!!

My nokia 5300 XpressMusic is much easier to use than my previous phone which is a samsung E900. The size of the phone in my opinion is quite chunky. The camera details are poor. Theres is no point in having 8x zoom as it distorts the image at 4x zoom.On a more positive note i would say the layout of the menu etc, is very spread out. easy to use. Howeverr if i was to trial the phone before buying it, i wouldnt choose to buy it. simply because ... 1> Low spec 2> no actual phone memory (relys on memory card) 3> Too chunky 4> nothing 'Pizazz' About it. Its just an average phone. i wouldnt reccomend it. unless you just want a phone for basic use.

I would not recommend this phone. It's a really great phone, if you happen to get one that doesn't break, but as far as I can figure, it's a faulty phone. A few months after getting it, some of the buttons on the front of the phone decided to literally randomly stop working. Hadn't dropped it or gotten it wet, they just died. It had a warranty, so I got it replaced, and now the replacement phone has done the EXACT same thing, only a few months in, and I am getting ANOTHER replacement phone for it. If it dies again after the warranty is up, I'm just going to cut my losses and upgrade to a different phone, it's not worth it for a phone that becomes useless every 3 or 4 months. Other than that though, I really enjoy the music, the camera works well enough, though it takes really poor pictures in anything but true sunlight, and it has a nice layout and design. Good phone, when it's working correctly, and you remember to charge it every night because the battery life really does suck.

I recently purchased the Nokia 5300 XpressMusic phone, I think its a great phone, a great phone for music. I am still worried about the very small space on my memory car, it is only 234mb. Which is very small for quite a few songs, I was just wondering if it is possible to expand the memory, if it is could someone tell me how. Overall great phone.

I bought this phone about 3 weeks ago and starting to lose faith in it. I have encounter both bad outweighing the good. It is easy to use, comfortable tone pad and the music level is excellent, crackly if too loud, but difficulty encountered in downloading from a notebook. The camera is temperamental (one min it takes good pictures, another grainy), difficulty retrieving files saved on my old SIM but the thing that worries me the most is its frailty as the first day using the phone closed, the top slide moves to the left side upon pressing the right buttons. after taking it back, I was advised that is normal. I am thinking of getting my refund as im not comfortable with it given the other complaints heard. Think i'll trade for a samsung j700 (samsung all the way).

so far so good, i love the slider type. the only thing im refraining from now is seeing how reviewers says it breaks easily. Better buy some insurance! this isnt a cheap phone at retail price! anyways all of the features seem to be pretty cool so far. this is the first phone ive ever had that has a music player like an mp3! thats gonna save me from having to hold and mp3 player AND phone, when i go work out at the gym. This phone is all around awesome. Still somethings to work on it, like internet and getting hi-fi ringers asap! cant wait!

This phone has given me nothing but trouble since I bought it a few months ago. It went back for repairs twice within the first 2 months. It was ok for a while, but now it keeps turning off everytime I flip the phone up or down. The battery life is awful - lasts about a day. Def don't buy this phone!

This phone is just brilliant. The screen is the best quality screen (240X320) you can get for it's current price (£49.99). The 5300 has a great camera, the pics you take look great on the screen, the MP3 Player is flwless, and the phone looks great. This is my favourite phone put of all the phones I have owned, i can definately reccomend it.

It's a nice phone, but it's as fat as a 2 weeks old milk. The display is okay large, but it's wournable, my one is damaged on the lcd screen so i can only see the upper part of the screen. It's a great starter phone, easy to use and all that, but the Shell is hard to open. buy it if you need a sellphone right here and right now

I got this phone like 5 months ago and I absoloutly loved it! I had the loudest phone out of all my friends and it had loads of good features, but recently my bag was on the floor and someone stood on it, and when I got my phone out the screen was all cracked and wouldn't turn on properly :( I'm so gutted. I want my old phone back!
