What Customers Say About Nokia 5610 XpressMusic Phone, White (T-Mobile):

I could have replaced battery twice with old phone at the same speed.The worst and the last. No, it is not covered by the warranty. I liked my previous Nokia with simple design, user friendly interface, and great reception. You lay phone flat on a surface by either scratching a screen or a lens. It just dies at the third use. Music slider key for MP3 could fall apart any time soon. It sounds a bit muted and less lively as a MP3 player.You may crack rear panel upon removing it to access battery, sim card, or SD card by forcing clip off hook.

No emotional beat-up. No offensive abuse.

Should I say it is better by a hair difference.Audio quality is good. No visible defect.

5610 comes with a nice camera and the lens is placed on opposite side of screen and lined up to the rear panel. My battery charger broke in 2 weeks.

This is a hidden cost and possible irritation.Hopefully, the phone will not freeze on me like other users did. What a smart design.The reception is on par with Samsung Anycall that has no bar in several cities around California Bay area.

Again, placing speaker in the back of phone spoils the fun of music listening.

When this phone works, it's a really good phone. It crashes fairly frequently, and occasional those crashes will be fatal, requiring an exchange of the entire phone.

As much as I love the features of this phone, it is not worth the headache of the buggy software. It frequently crashed while music was playing, and occasionally a multimedia text message would crash it.

This phone has great features. I've owned it for 6 months and have had to exchange it 3 times.

Don't buy it. The camera is great and so is the music player.

The problem is that this phone's software is full of bugs.

the radio is awsome. Bad: takes ugly pictures, is very low on hearing the other person talking to SOSO: it does freze when ur listening to music but is really fast in bringin it up(does not bother me its only like a second)GOOD: mp3 you could download songs from ur home computers library no extra charge for buying songs its great.

and to take video is also great. the radio is awsome.

COLORS are great too. Modern, urban and handy; the minute you put it in your hand you will like it, if not love it. But if I really use it a lot it keeps up for only 3 days. With a 2GB memory card I have like 500 tracks and the sound quality is truly amazing considering that this is the cell phone. TEXTING is very easy and convenient. Most of the key features that the phone has are very good and some of them are excellent in my opinion. Mine is good for 4 days on single charge (I do talk often and text a lot). This is another reason why I find Nokia 5610 Xpress Music to be great.

Other than that it is great not too big and not too small. This phone has been very practical in use. I used to have Nokia 6610 phone back in a day, when phones with colorful display were just getting popular and I did have a complain about the call quality. The sound was not clear and I had a real trouble with it in any loud places. Nokia 5610 Xpress Music technically replaced my ipod I mean it.

MUSIC PLAYER. BATTERRY is decent, but not the best. If you want a multitasking phone that easy fits in you pockets with a great design Nokia 5610 Xpress Music is the way to go. The sound is clear. SIZE. Nokia 5610 Xpress Music is different and different in a good way. I'd like to start with DESIGN and it absolutely grabbed my attention when I bought it.

CALL. For example: I phone - it is big enough to kill bugs and flights that are bothering you in the summer time, which I have to say adds a new feature, but I do like when my phone can easily fit in my pocket. SCREAN is good enough, unless you are using it for games - you may find it a little too small. These days for some reason cell phone technology have a tendency to make mobile devices bigger and I am not a big fun of that.

So the phone is going back and Amazon promised to pay for return shipping. If you aren't going to use music player a lot it won't freeze as much but then why bother getting a "music phone". Reception is weak and I had no bars at my work when my old nokia had 2 bars and coworker's Samsung had service too (same provider). I've had 2 nokia phones before and loved both. 5 stars for Amazon and I will buy another phone from them; sadly only 2 stars for Nokia 5610. Like other reviewers said, phone tends to freeze any time you look at it wrong way. So, I had rather high expectations for this one but was disappointed. Given it comes back to live in just abut 10 sec, it is still very annoying.
