VERDICT:

It seems that Nokia is more determined than ever to get its fair share of the slim phone market. Releasing 5310 right after the 6500 classic comes to prove that producing phones less than 10 mm thick is no problem for the Finns. Moreover, Nokia 5310 seems an attempt at winning the hearts of the music loving masses and, as I see it, might just be the right stuff for that.

Definitely not the best music phone available but will do for an average user. Faces fierce competetion from Sony W 800 series.
