Say it Out Loud… XpressRadio!

Nokia-5030-XpressRadio-FrontThe new Nokia 5030 XpressRadio is undoubtedly geared towards music lovers and whilst it is true that music phones aren’t a new concept, this model is the first mobile phone to come with an internal FM antenna. This eliminates the need to wear a headset and apart from this, the unit is also equipped with a built-in loudspeaker so you can “share” the listening experience with your friends. The speaker is quite powerful so you get decent sound quality. 
 
The selection keys located at the side of the phone makes for easy channel flipping so it really is quite perfect for playing music on the go. The radio can even serve as an alarm clock.
 
Nokia-5030-XpressRadioNokia offers the XpressRadio in two attractive variants, red and graphite, and you will surely find the classic back cover design detail a novelty. Perfect when you want to make a statement and communicate in style. But lest we forget that the XpressRadio is also a communication device, let’s run through its call and SMS capabilities. Talk time on the Nokia 5030 is about 10 hours and it can hold 250 text messages. You can input as many as a thousand entries into its phonebook. To help you manage your messages, you can make use of the distribution list function. The phone even enables speed dial for both calling and SMS sending. 
 
This phone has an 8MB internal memory and operates on dual-band network. The Nokia 5030 measures 108 x 45 x 15 millimeters and weighs 82 grams – very pocketable.

If you are looking for an alternative to the Sony Ericsson Radio (R300) or the more high-end Nokia XpressMusic phones, the Nokia 5030 is a good choice as it will, no doubt, be a lot friendlier on the budget. The price is estimated at less than 40 euros and is expected to be released into the market during the second quarter of this year.
