Review:
July 2009. Last Updated February 2010.
The 5130 seems at first glance to be an updated
version of the 5310 XpressMusic
phone. But wait ... maybe that should read downgraded. Although
the 5130 is a newer phone, it's a less powerful one. First the size
- there's no other way to put this, but the 5130 is fat. It's longer
and wider too, and heavier. Just bigger all over. But for no obvious
purpose, as the battery life is no better and the screen is the
same size as the 5310, at 2 inches across. And the screen shows
only 256,000 colours, instead of 2 million on the 5310. The memory
card slot supports smaller card sizes too - restricted to 2 GB.
Everything else is the same as the older 5130,
so what exactly is the point of this phone? Well, it's dirt cheap,
and that's its key merit. You'll see from the user reviews below
that the phone has a tendency to freeze. But for the price? Well,
you could do a lot worse.

Nokia 5130 is made for music. And i think that it thrives in that
department. Its not that its the best in the market but it is the
best one to get hold of for its price tag. No other branded mobile
has similar abilities as the 5130 for its price. My first impression
on this phone for its music wasn't satisfying as there was no bass
at all. But i ate my own words when i switched the headphone provided
with this handset with a better one. The bass was astounding. The
sound clarity and loudness is comparable to ipod 4th generation
music players. And i was even surprised when i got to know that
the sound quality of 5130 is comparable to 5800(i compared my 5130
with my friend's 5800). So everyone should switch there headphones
for a better one. Due to its 3.5mm audio output jack, one can connect
it to any music system or home theatre system, thats awesome. This
phone supports 16gb microsdhc cards, so no running out of space,
whatsoever. This phone can easily replace one's ipod, thats guaranteed...

mobile, i can help. Rating:

music player is great, and the sound quality through the headphones
in actuallity is briliant,so far no problems texting or calling.It
feels good in hand and the keys are easy to press and use.The camera
is O.K for 2 megapixels(In all honesty i wasnt expecting much as

@David from Indonesia: The battery life improves after about 3 -
5 full charge and full discharge cycles. I'm looking into getting
the phone next week. I noticed that most guys complaining here bought
their phones from telecom companies like Orange or Tmobile. Well
for some reasons, mobile phones bought with/from networks present
with a lot of problems. While in London 2 years ago, I bought a
motorola V3r pay-as-you-go from Tmobile and it's battery kept discharging
every 5 hours coupled with the fact that it kept losing signal every
now and then even in places with excellent signal. I finally exchanged
the phone and it worked okay throughout vacation until I got back
to Nigeria and it started malfunctioning again. Poor signal, bad
GPRS connection, sms failures etc. What I'm trying to say is that
you all should buying "unbranded phones". Unbranded=Not Tmobile,
orange, 3 or whatever. Just get the phone without it's been attached
to any network and your worries might just be no more. Rating:

more booting or should i say start using time and sluggish mp4 format

This phone is rubbish I got it 3 1/2 weeks ago and am already on
my second one. I had to send the first back as it kept freezing
within the first 2 days. i'll be returning this 1 too when talking
on the phone, very often the other person cannot hear anything at
all or visa versa. batery life so far is good but phone does not
tell you multiple time of missed, received and dialed calls, only
the last time. Also you can not mark items such as vids, pics and
tunes so that you can send or delete them all together. this must
be done one by one. speaker is on the back at the bottom so when
holding the phone in natural position, sound is reduced when using
loud speaker. Also 2day i dropped it for the first time from only
50cm high. the whole phone including batery came apart. DO NOT BUY!!

Pros: - Excellent crisp sound quality - Very good music phone -

tested and 16gb Micro SD cards do work on this phone - Very decent
price and cheaper than Nokia 5310 - Can film video - Attractive
and Fairly small size cellphone. Cons: - Poor camera though it's
supposed to be mainly a music phone - Poor video camera quality.
- Battery life could be better - Average screen resolution - Small
screen - Comes with horrible headset For a music phone it's excellent.
For a camera.. not so much. The cellphone produces excellent sound
quality as long as you buy a decent headset to listen to the music.

in the background as you do other stuff is quite handy. You can
expand the phone memory up to 4 GB (some sites claim you can go
as far as 8 GB but I haven't had the chance to try it yet) which
is just enough to keep those favorite tracks with you at all times.
The battery life is pretty impressive as well. I have been using
the music player on and off all day for a total of 2-3 hours and
the battery charge is still more than half as of the evening. The
sound quality is really good. Although the headset is not bad at
all, you can use pretty much all the headphones on the market because
the phone has a standard headphone input. The music player controls
on the left side of the phone are enhanced by blinking lights so
that the user can easily see which button is which in the darkness.
The camera is adequate with a 2.0 megapixels resolution and the
pictures come out clean and neat. I have to admit though that I've
never been a camera person so it is more than enough for me. Just
so you know, the camera does not have flash. It's a music phone
after all. 5130 is the perfect gift for a teenager or any music
lover with its affordable price and performance. I highly recommend
it. Rating:

Yes, this is going to be a show stealer soon. A well crafted cell
phone for an affordable price. Has loads of features apart from
quite a few shortcomings. But no doubt this is going to be the next
show stealer in a country like INDIA. Lets hope it rules in other
countries as well. Rating:
