Nokia owns the bragging rights to being the number one mobile phone creator in the world. I’m sure many would agree. Nokia has acquired so many stars and medals on its uniform, we lost count already. In many countries, Nokia models have become the most popular as well as crowd favorites, for the young and old alike. It’s no surprise that Nokia will come up with another crowd pleaser in the fourth quadrant of 2006. Meet the Nokia Xpress Music 5300, it’s nothing short of exceptional.
Let’s talk design, shall we? The Nokia 5300 is a slide phone that comes in red and white, with the red band on the midsection rubberized for a soft feel. Other color schemes are black and white, and also lilac. The left spine of the unit houses the media controls, on the right is the volume adjustment and camera button, while on the back of the phone is the 1.3 mega pixel digital camera. The phone slides up to reveal a silver numeric keypad with raised buttons and a five-way toggle button. The QVGA screen measures 2 inches and displays 262,000 colors.
