Nokia 5320 review: Teensmart
August 12, 2008 by admin
Nokia have ditched the swivel and are playing it rather low key on the 5320 exterior. Fair enough, less express in XpressMusic but no complaints elsewhere: FP2, HSDPA. Well geared up in terms of connectivity and running on the latest Symbian, Nokia 5320 will hardly count solely on the XpressMusic branding. What it can sure count on is our careful scrutiny. Let's play.

The bar-shaped Symbian-powered Nokia 5320 has a distinctive youthful appeal and is obviously targeted at the younger audience. The middling feature load and moderate price also come to confirm that. Let's have a look at some of the alternatives that are currently on the market.
