    My girlfriend has just got this phone. Its ok, feels a bit cheap and loose but the sound is good. Menu system is a bit basic. Nokia seem to have lost their way a bit, they are trying to copy Samsung/Sony Ericsson too much with their sliding/twisting/flip mechanisms but can't match them quality wise. The PC software works well which comes with the phone! It includes CD ripping software that compresses the files to about 1Mb per dong. It comes with a 256Mb memory card which is OK but nowhere near Sony Ericssons 1Gb card of the W850i. The battery life is very good, even on its 1st charge it gave 4 days with normal useage. 7/10

                      Hey people i have had this phone for a month and i must say that it is a pertty good phonebut its compettetors in terms of functunality are the SE W-seriese excluding the W900 and the W850 n W830 N of course the W950 although the material of the fone is very cheap it is made of a thin layer of plastic...VERY THIN LAYER OF PLASTIC if you just got the fone you have to be careful when inserting the SIM n the memory card and the battery because you might just crack the thing ir break it the camera is in a very bad possition every time you use the fone toyr index will be on the camera the main keys [D-pad and the other ones on the face are very bad as they are all just one big chunk of plastic so when trying to press one you might just press the other and delete some thing very impt. the performance as in the speed of opening and closing files is very slow just like an old overloaded computer and will crash/freeze while trying to open or close a file and leave you no choice but to turn it off and restsrt it the 1.3 mp camera is of good quality and it has a heck load of effects and you can change the resouloution by a very large range so i would actually reccomend a W810 or even a W710 instead of this and being a musicexpress fone from nokia that are made for music it only comes with earphones with quality worse than that of the i pod earphones so the W series frm the SE all come with high quality in earphones and have a very sleek desigh so DONT BUY THIS FONE JUST GET A SE W-SERIESE FONE!!!!!!!!!!![lol

                            Nokia 5300 is a musical surprise to the ones with an ear to beats and tunes.

                            At prima facie, the 5300 Xpress Music is a slider phone of 3.6 by 1.9 by 0.8 inches. The picture-perfect QVGA display measures 2 inches (320x240 pixels) and supports 262,144 colors. Smoothly sliding up the front face reveals the keypad buttons. Spacious and brightly backlit, the individual buttons are raised above the surface of the phone for ease in typing when one is not looking at the piece.

                            The simple but attractive menus are also a treat to view, and the best part is that Nokia provides a description of unfamiliar applications if you hold the cursor over the corresponding icon.

                            It’s got excellent music controls. Lining the immediate left side of the display are dedicated music controls that give easy access to the music player. Once inside, you can play, pause, fast-forward, and rewind your tracks. Just insert a 2GB memory card and voila! you’ve over 1500 tracks to swing on.

                            The added features include full Bluetooth with a stereo profile, an infrared port, a speakerphone, PC syncing and a mini-USB port too! Other standard offerings include a vibrate mode, text and multimedia messaging, a voice recorder, e-mail and instant messaging, an alarm clock, a calendar, a to-do list, a notepad, a calculator, a countdown timer, and a stopwatch among others.

                            But the Nokia 5300 has everything we look for a in such a phone. It's easy to transfer files to the phone, it's user-friendly with a simple interface and well-designed controls, it has few restrictions, it offers plenty of memory, and last, but certainly not least, it offers exceptional sound quality over stereo speakers. The player supports, MP3, AAC, AAC+, and WMA files. And undoubtedly it’s the ultimate handset to Xpress Music!!!

                              i bought this phone before xmas... it looks great and stylish .. but i think it would be better if he has s60 platform .. it has irda as u can see.. but i cannot find a psiloc remote control as my cousin have on his n6600... The camera would be better if it was at least 2mp .. but on the whole its a great phone! .. i lovin it! thanks NOKIA for firmwares and softapps :)

                                      This is one of the great set by NOKIA I think. Its main feature is very strong - the Music and the sound quality is simply great. You can capitalize on its Universal Headphone option by using a high Bass headphone and feel the great quality Sound!
                                      The camera is also OK (not very great though) - can take good picture with basic quality, one should remember its not a camera based phone - rather a Music Phone.
                                      The Memery card option is impressive and I found some sort of AI to recognize the number type and storage location etc. Good and wide display let you surf the web quite happily.
                                      In a nutshell, I am happy with it. Its a superb one.
