Tech Gadget Review

The 5310 XpressMusic has a near twin in the lookalike Nokia 5610 XpressMusic. That is a bigger phone which takes a slider format and has a higher caliber set of specifications. It may yet get a separate review here. But right now my attention is fully on the 5310 XpressMusic.  With most mobiles making a stab at music playing, and some doing the job really well, to style a range as specifically about music seems a little bit like kicking other, sometimes pretty nifty, music playing mobiles in the teeth. To do so when some of the better music mobiles come from your own stable seems bizarre. With that in mind, I’ve generally formed a fairly ambivalent view of the XpressMusic range so far. Add to that the fact that the design of handsets in Nokia’s XpressMusic range is a little, er, quirky at times, such as with the 5700 XpressMusic and I feel pretty justified in being nonplussed about the range.
