First look at Nokia 5730 XpressMusic

Mobile-review have posted a preview of the Nokia 5730 XpressMusic. Here is their final impression.

Call quality was never an issue with the 5730 XpressMusic, as it easily lived up to our expectations of a Nokia-branded phone. Ring tones sounded quite loud; we also found the 5730�s vibro alert was average strength-wise.

The version of software we played around with didn�t have the Contact Bar like that found in the Nokia 5800, but the 5730 XpressMusic�s presentation hints at this functionality, so we�ll have to wait a while more to see how this feature will work here. Other than that, the phone comes packaged with the standard feature set of FP2 3rd edition, expect for Say & Play and the abovementioned screen mode. While its camera is not stellar, at the end of the day the 5730 XpressMusic is positioned towards the lower end of mid-tier, so it�s hard to expect some bells and whistles from it. Its sales will kick off in April at the price-point of around 220 Euro, which makes it a viable option for those who are in the market for a cheap QWERTY-enabled smartphone. But, again, it�s still a niche product, so don�t expect any breakthroughs from it.

P.S. Later this week you�ll see the official announcement of this phone � probably on Wednesday. Don�t forget to check back for our world�s first review of the Nokia 5730 XpressMusic!
