2.0 out of 5 stars First time disappointed by Nokia, December 31, 2008

By 

Best Pal (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nokia 5610 XpressMusic Phone, White (T-Mobile) (Wireless Phone)

I've had 2 nokia phones before and loved both. So, I had rather high expectations for this one but was disappointed. Like other reviewers said, phone tends to freeze any time you look at it wrong way. Given it comes back to live in just abut 10 sec, it is still very annoying. 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). So the phone is going back and Amazon promised to pay for return shipping. 5 stars for Amazon and I will buy another phone from them; sadly only 2 stars for Nokia 5610.

2.0 out of 5 stars ITS A MUSIC PHONE..., July 19, 2009

By 

Mark (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nokia 5610 XpressMusic Phone, White (T-Mobile) (Wireless Phone)

The Nokia seemed great from what I saw on Amazon, I decided to finally move away from Apple and it's overly protected music and this was going to be my first step. I quickly began converting music from iTunes into mp3 format and uploading it on my phone, I was rather impressed with the phone, it runs very quickly, the camera is very impressive for its size and the interface is very easy. My only small complaint is that maybe the buttons are a bit cheap, but I was used to the nice keypad on the MotoRazr.

My large complaint is this: after having uploaded all my music on to the phone, I sat down and attempted to plug my headphones into the oh-so-wonderful headphone jack on the top, but to no avail. The headphone jack is a specially designed Nokia headphone jack. This means that I have to use the 2-foot adapter cable that Nokia provides in order to listen to music, not only is it extremely long, but it also has an incredibly large button on it that will play and pause the music whenever it hits anything (there's no hold button.) Nokia also provides their own cheap airline-style headphones with the phone, and THEY need the adapter too... How hard can it be to put a normal sized headphone jack on a phone? I'm now restricted to using one of the two types of headphones that Nokia supplies for this type of jack, so I won't be using either...It almost seems like they don't WANT you to use the music player, I guess Apple wins this battle...
