Good Gear Guide

Nokia has designed this phone with a special target in mind, for young people who enjoy listening to music and care less about taking top quality pictures with its camera. It’s fresh, it’s hip, but it’s also pretty expensive. For the performances that Nokia 5300 XpressMusic has to bring, there are other phone models with even slimmer and more elegant designs. The only thing that might grasp the youngsters’ preference is the highly personal touch that this phone offers. It looks friendly, fun and colorful, some pretty basic attributes that can work only in a market segment that looks to stand out.Read Full Review
