    I went to the store with Sony Ericsson W710i in mind. After buying Nokia 6270 10 months back, I decided not to buy a Nokia again. But having seen the piece I was impressed with the design and the exceptional music performance. However after using it for the last 2 weeks I realized that my earlier decision to not to go for Nokia is correct. The pros of this phone are illusive. It's slim, good design, good looks but all these thing aren't going to benefit you as you use it. But it's cons will definitely bother you a lot. The ring volume is too low at it's maximum and there is every chance that you miss many calls especially when you are in a noisy environment. If you turn the vibrator on...the battery which is weak by default will let you down more quickly than it otherwise does. The battery is very special that it takes more time to recharge than the talk time it supports!! Coming to camera...worst of the 2 MP class. I can't bet to compare this cam with any 2 MP cam of a sony ericsson mobile. Nokia is just cheating the buyers. Even the slightest of hand movement while taking the picture will end up producing a totally blurred snap. To add to it there is no flash...the screen is nice with 16 million colors but to save on battery life Nokia has set a very low brightness level for the screen which the user cannot modify..compare the brightness of the screen with any other model of Nokia and you will realize it. Overall it's phone with nice looks but worst performance. Only good feature is it's music clarity over earphones. My sincere advice is not to buy Nokia they show up their models to illude buyers. To add the package contains a standard charger with three pins.Ofcourse the third pin is non-functional but it disallows you from charging your phone in train or some other place where only 2-pin plug is available...bonus bonanza....I've decided to dispose this piece off as early as possible and go for a sony ericsson...

              and yeah - the sound on the headset was great.. but common - its a phone before it is an MP3 player after all.

                had the 5310 for the past 2 weeks - its slim, lite, and the standard headset jack is a cool touch.. ***BUT: the speakers on that phone are simply not loud enough. im not talking 'listening to music'-not loud enough, but 'not hearing your phone ring!'-not loud enough.. really - big time! kept missing calls/msgs. went to the store and had them check a different phone, it was the same. mine wasnt faulty or anything..
                a real shame, i really wanted to love that little thing. liked everything else about it.. its pretty simple and cool to use apart from that. but hey - these are really the basics..! ended up sending it back and exchanging it for a different phone. :(

                              I'm using this phone since oct, 07. A superb phone as music player. It's sound quality really nice compared to i-pod, muvo or zen. Image quality is also not bad at day light. But, all the 5310 users at Bangladesh is facing auto restart problem. The display turns to white & reboot in very short time, with or without memory card, even while talking. Ringtone volume is sadly below average, which was not expected. Finally, 18hrs non stop playback? It would be possible if you play song without volume(i didn't yet try;-)). Though the battery life is more reasonable. EDGE service is great in this phone.
                              Thanks, soul

                                this is phone is rubbish. very soft ringing tones, lousy vibration strength, "popping" sounds during playback of music, screwed up battery life. slow response during navigation of the menus and sub-menus. all in all, wouldnt take it even if it's free. utter waste of time. might as well get a nokia 2100. lousy POS

                                  This is my opinion on 5310.
                                  Disadvantage:
                                  1. I noticed that it hanged three times already, I would have to open the back and take off the batteries to reset it so I ould use it again. Maybe they gave me a defective handset. Hope I could have it replaced by the time I get back to the Philippines where I bought it.
                                  2. The battery only lasted for a day. Maybe because I had a lot of music listening...
                                  3. Camera is slow, (I dont need anyway, thats why I purchased a music phone) If you want a better camera, buy a digicam...

                                  Advantages:
                                  1. It is very slim and liht. I hardly notice it in my pocket, some times I even thought I lost it, while it was in my pocket all along.
                                  2. The sound quality was superb!
                                  3. It looks gorgeous. Its has a beautiful design.
                                  4. It is very easy to use.
                                  Hope this
                                  helps to those who like to buy 5310s
