Nokia 5730 XpressMusic
The Nokia 5730 XpressMusic is the first music-optimized cellphone to offer a full QWERTY keyboard for easier messaging. Very closely related to Nokia E75, this phone is an S60 smartphone with 3.5G support, WiFi, GPS and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. The real highlight for the Nokia 5730 XpressMusic is the Homescreen for XpressMusic which provides access and dynamic information on music, people, games, email and the calendar.
The Homescreen features an improved contacts bar with up to 20 friends and family members and provides direct access to music, N-Gage and other applications, such as Facebook, Photos, Ovi Contacts, Maps, messaging and more. Usefully, the 5730 XpressMusic comes with an 8GB microSD card, and it even has dedicated media keys.
The 5730 has a better stills camera compared to Nokia E75, using Carl Zeiss optics, but the maximum video capture rate at 640 x 480 pixels is only 15 frames per second, half that of the E75.
The 5730 has access to Nokia’s new Music Store and can share files on Ovi. It’s quite a heavy phone at 135 grams, and it measures at 112 x 51 x 15mm. The 1000 mAh battery provides up to 4 hours talktime and 11 days standby time on 3G. Available color options are red, monochrome, blue and pink.
