Nokia 5130 XpressMusic review: Reporting for duty

Nokia 5130 XpressMusic review: Reporting for duty - read the full textAt a certain point everyone finds themselves in the situation where all they need is a no-nonsense phone that looks good and doesn't cost a fortune. The Nokia 5130 is exactly the kind...

 

Sort by:

a review from somebody with a predisposed bias towards the operating system has limited value. As far as I can tell the only major fault you could find with the low cost handset is that you didn't like the operating system. when one looks at handset sales you'll find many more prefer it.

I find camera complaints such a joke my original 2 mipxel Point and shoot canon digital camera outperforms all 5 meg and below cell phone cameras. it's all about light gathering and optics not pixel count.

no office document viewer on a product that has no pretense of being a smart phone. some of us do not want a smart phone. doing a few things well (voice and music) is preferred to a handset that does many things either not so well OR at an outrageous price.

no 3G, who wants a data plan or data charges on a low cost handset.

Same old boring design for a same old boring phone. Nokia is releasing the same phones over and over again so stupid fanboys can buy them.
