  • i want to buy this mobile

  • super phone i am also using.great phone very slim.super sound clarity.and louder don't need any china phone infront of this phone.

  • My Nokia 5220 will complete 4 years this November. Agreed, I am not a person who keeps on changing phones w/o reason...but frankly I havent found a reason to change it so far....though there have been moments these 4 years where atleast 4 times, the software got corrupt and needed a format...but I dont think a Blackberry or an I phone can stay with the user for that long...i bought this phone for one touch music, superior voice clarity, good display and a decent camera...though it cannot at all compete with today's high end, advanced smartphones..personally this phone will remain close to my heart always....as i too for better features will move on to a smartphone soon....Nokia 5220 - a special phone for me...

  • can i buy a nokia 5220 xpressmusic

  • The stereo with earphones are awesome but the speakers are sooo lame and awful,as it's only treble and very low and cannot manage any bass. has low memory at times but it does not prevent you listenin music. otherwise the is pretty much ok

  • hi frnd! m 4th idoit m using dis cell from 2008 still paying 150rs evry month due to its softeware prb...after update software its crupt setting 15 days so my frnd dont buy dis cell. pricessless word from 4th idoit

  • Though it is older virsion of nokia os, it is well

  • you should update the firmware or go to nokia or any local shop they will do if u dont want to put money than downlad phonix softaware and 5220 frimware gud luck

  • mtnl9757

  • i am so dissappointed that it doesnot have wlan.

  • this phone is so bad that it irritates me

  • The majority of mobile phones are assembled in China. You hardly find phones that are not made in China. But the quality of assembly could be varied depending on the final destination.

  • hi, i bought a nokia 5220 and it is made in china does it mean it is fake?

  • i lost the one i had iwould like to make a replacement

  • I cant play through music player. It keep repeating 'not enough memory' both for radio and music player and i have memory card on it.

  • No this man saing not truth because i have this phone when call came the fm will automatcly switch off

  • Yeah, mine too

  • I HATED THIS PHONE!!!! the main point of buying xpressmusic phone is to LISTEN TO MUSIC!, guess what, u can't listen to music on this fail phone!!!! when someone calls u while u playing songs, the phone will hang and restart, u won't be able to know who called and won't be able to answer!!! it happened to me million times that i couldn't even sell the phone!!! the closest fine mobile to this is Nokia 5310 XpressMusic .

  • virus problem is very much

  • Quality of s/w is poor. Once in 2 months u need to take to nokia showroom for s/w upgrade. Doing this consistantly kills the phone where it becomes useless.

  • Hiiiiiiiiiiiii I likes so much Nokia 5220 Xpessmusic. Its my Favourite Mobile & i m satisfied from that mobile

  • what will happen when i enter 12345

  • go to settings and find the restore settings option, and press ok,handset will ask password,and plz type 12345 and press ok.............................

  • pls my own nokia expressmusic is ok but battrey problem.pls how will in knw the original one?

  • i want to reboot my handset. give me way how to do?

  • virus is the main problem & hanging please try to avoid this

  • Very Bad Mobile ,virus problem is the major problem... it get infected again na again .....worst Mobile...

  • nokia ins best phone but i am instaled softwere 3 time but he was hanged

  • yes virus problem is the major problem... it get infected again na again.//

  • Pls i need the housing where will i get one?

  • this is for ones who knows how to work with it.

  • Its suprb Battery Backup is very Good but again & Again virus affection is the major problem

  • everything is fine, but it takes frequent flash when internet is used or the connection is activated....that's why it works 50% of its capacity.

  • How can I get certificate? Plz tell me. I flash my mobile but i can get certificate.

  • this cellphone don´t vibrate

  • Its suprb but virus affection is the major problem

  • if your phone is getting very hang and it is getting switch of automatically, then update the software of ur phn u can check which software is currentaly in ur phn, u can chk by pressing *#0000# then go to www.nokia.com and check the latest software version of your of ur phn download ovi suite not the pc suite because thr pc suite u cannot update ur phn....install ovi suite if u have broad band connection at your home then u can update ur phn by ur self....but note then before installing make the backup of ur phn memory and take out ur memory card....else your memory card can get lock.........

  • What a nice phone when it comes to surfing the net, music playing n camera quality. But d rapid rate of virus infection is a major concern, have flashed mine about thrice, it trips of 4 no just cause, and when u power it on it displays blank screen alone, overall assesment not that reliable.

  • its not 300 baby its now 225 only

  • the most garbage phone ever been created. tired of sending this trash to nokia shop. Avoid this phone or you will suffer endless nightmare like me

  • I also had the same problem with the software. So did you fix it? My 5220 sometimes restarts when i change the themes and sometimes it restarts randomly and the nokia themes which are preloaded in the phone are corrupted. Anyway, i still use it happily untill i lost it. =( I love this phone anyway. 3 years of using. Felt like losing part of my life.

  • the main problem is software getting hang many times and the solution is Rs.300 by updating software

  • i also used from last 3 yrs it is strong no problem even after fall down many times.but the main problem is software getting hang many times and the solution is Rs.300 by updating software.

  • This is some tough phone i have it since 3 and it is still working like a charm... -The music quality is awesome you only have to buy a good memory card to store all your songs and that's it. -The camera quality is pretty good too(2MP camera). -There are practically no bugs at all and its interface is user centered i.e. really easy to use. - And you can use the wap to check your fb of twitter. the only drawbacks of this phone are that there is no WiFi, and is dose not come with a good internal memory(which is of only 20MB) or memory card(like at least 4GB) So if you want to buy a cheap and long lasting phone where you can store and listen your music with a good sound quality this baby is perfect. I would personally give this phone 8/10 specially because because of its robustness which is unfortunately not the case for most of the "new/next generation" phones.

  • 3 years and still goin strong baby...3 years... been thrown from the roof to the ground... been underwater... thrown a couple of hundred times... kaboom! still working! so no regrets wen ah bought this piece o' solid rock baby! Jiyeh!

  • This is best in music only and always coming software problem

  • just go yo nokia care

  • this phone is absolutely brilliant in sound quality camera quality , internet surfing etc. i have this phone from last three years with not even a single problem in the phone.........it is working lyk a new phone

  • like all of u guys.. i had this phone too.. and it sucks! it keeps restarting and hangs up most of the time..i surrendered it to nokia care 5times..still no improvements.. I'm so glad some thief took it! i'm sure he'll be suffering using that phone! haha

  • ver pethatic set i will break it and i advise not to buy it

  • Wel ,the phone is gud but just it admired virus quickly

  • Its sound quality is good stereo widening and 3d affects and battery backup is also good.These are the good points of the set.And rest of all are 'WORST'.

  • Mostly i face software problem .it is virus defeated phone. Only music best every other thing is wrost

  • very worst mobile. its keep on hanging while msging. i'm going to change it

  • one of the best phone ever

  • its third class phone...... dont waste money on this phone..

  • why not Nokia fix this not enough memory problem through internet update or their service centers free of cost? Its same like replacement of defective battery in the past. Selling defective product is like cheating.

  • try to use default themes first, it may remove the "not enough memory" problem.. hard reset.. reupdate your software via Nokia Software updater installable at your own PC.. if problem persists, there's Nokia Care =D

  • Is it possible we do it our self by connecting to PC and net with USB cable. Nokia charge enough money just for there own fault.

  • How much is this?

  • bad phone,dont bye it.Even though the music is good the phone has lot of software problem.Initially it hangs, white screen will appear,restarts automatically,"not enough memory" for music player and radio and finally u will throw away the phone against a wall like me.

  • ive been using this phone since 2008. overall, it is good.the thing that i like most is the music, then the camera, eventhough its only 2mp, we cn get a good photo under enough light,especially during the day time.the one and only thing that im not satisfied is the software. i cant remember how many times i've go to nokia store about the software problem.and now, the software still not good, but im already giving up.

  • an advice to everyone... please avoid buying this phone... you have to tolerate software problem... better stay away... sorry nokia 5220..:(

  • always gives software problem..... otherwise i love this phone.... but now its going in white-light and its damn irritating...i had many walks in nokiacare... now just pissed..

  • very low sound,battery,video...camera is good.accessories not not available...my money lost. dont buy dis.

  • nice but allways software problem

  • A gud phone for music, camera and other factors. But a worst phone for frequent software complaints. If this software problem is solved, its a gud phone.

  • Use navifirm software to download nokia's firmware files or flash files

  • One of the worst phones ever!

  • True, there are many problems with the nokia 5220 like hanging up and "not enough memory" on the music player

  • I delete all authority certificate. How I get authority certificate?

  • This phone looks so cool with its askew shape. The only Express Music phone i have used. Sound's gr8. The camera is also gud. One fault, although, my phone hangs a lot.

  • So ... i have been using this phone for 3 years now i have to say its pretty good s40 phone great sound ... never had hardware problems ... and the battery is good still living till now but yes it have some software problems ... i had problem like restarting ... stuck keys ... camera wont work but these things just fixed themselves i dont know how .. so yes its a good phone

  • Plz dont buy this phone.Or you'll only waste your money.It has many software problems.For music the sound of this set on both output and headphone are really really poor comparing to other x.m sets of nokia.You will only get disappointed.Buy sets like 5130xm 6300 these sets are a lot better than 5220.

  • The mobile is very good but the internet option is very worst if you use internet option your mobile will lead to many problems..,

  • bilkul bekar h mat lena ise isse to achha h ki tum mobil hi na lo

  • nice phone, using for nearly 2 years as a secondary phone, telephony is good, music quality (in headphone) is good, unconditionally stylish, slim, long battery life, using the red one, i think the main Problem is its display, Viewing Angle is so Tight, sometimes it hurt my eyes, mainly in dark, and another is Very Stiff Keys, other than those its okay to have...

  • Its is useless plz don't buy this better that you people can china mobiles and 1more thing vary waste backup

  • dont take it because camera is not good and if u use full volume u wiil get bad output

  • its a very bad cell soft ware problem & much much more problem 1-bettry problem 2-software 3-inter down loding 4-music player 5-no flash player

  • It is an old model now. Even that it is a very nice machine. The build quality is not the best, but it feels nice in the hand. The design is strange but very comfy when talking on the phone. The buttons are very for messaging and playing with the phone. Also they from crystal plastic (the panel also) so if you use it a long time it wond lose any colors :) The software is typical for non symbian Nokia, working smooth, the menu is a little bit slow for me but it is good enough. The sound is very good as expected, battery time is also nice. Good price, good phone, especially for music :)

  • i like so much,this mobile is very good. congratulacions. my adress mail is this [email protected]

  • Hi, this is Dr. P.K an MBBS first year student in Maulana Aazad, New Delhi. I always wanted to have Nokia 5610 xpress music since its launch but could not afford it coz of its higher price tag. I saw 5220 XpressMusic phone for the first time when my cousin sister bought it n I was realy impressed with its features and design n fell in love with it. It takes impressive pictures with its camera in good lighting condition (If u know how to take one). Sound quality is the best n is cristal clear (coz has a dedicated chip for music) when you listen songs in its head phone ( just try with a soft song at 128 kbs or higher bit ret coz more the bit rate better the sound quality n good quality original hedphone of branded company ) afcoz sound is not that good in loudspeakers. The shape is unique. Key pad is very soft n well spaced for convinent typing. Good finishing. Battery last for 2-3 days when fully charged. (Depends upon howmuch you use it). 16-18 hrs of music playback when the vol is 40-50% (again it depends on ur equiliser settings). I'm also a computer gy so i know how to keep my cell safely so that I can take maxm advantage of it. Now few advice for the one who complaint about it. 1. Never utilise 100% of the space available on ur memory card. If possible use only upto 80-85% of the space available n Don't install too much of unnessory games n applications as it will make ur phone slower n slower. Make sure ur phone memory is not full. THIS PHONE IS NOT FOR ROUGH USERS N IS ONLY FOR DECENT BOYS N GLS. N yes never ever use internet on this phone coz its softwere gets affected. Last but not least don't expect performence like N8 n never compare with any other phone. Use it like a phone not like a computer or a PDA. I love my Nokia 5220 XpressMusic coz i take good care of it. Its almost been 2yrs n not even a single scretch on it. I never droped it from my hand. N whenever i take it into my palm i always remember that first day when i bought it. I respect every thing I use be it my pen, my watch, my books so my gadget. N always got respect from them. Remember, learn to respect in order to be respected!!! Regards, Dr. P. K

  • The best phone I have ever used. Initially there was some software issues. But Nokia is providing periodic updates to very firmware. Everything got right after the first firmware update. Even the music quality and loudness improved after every firmware update. According to user manual the maximum allowed memory card size is 2GB. But I used a 4GB memory card at my own risk. But everything gone fine. The only issue I faced was the time taken for updating music library after phone restart. But I cannot blame the phone for this beacause they recommended 2GB and I used 4GB instead which is almost full with around 900 music tracks. I am really satisfied with its exceptional sound quality(really amazing. no other phones I have seen to compete with it) and speaker loudness. Slim, handy, unique phone. Its keypad is one of the best in class. visually we feel a bad impression on the keypad, but in real life use its really good. The positioning of dedicated music keys is also good.

  • Its a vry bad phone, software hangs every other day.. Dunno y nokia has such a product in its bag....

  • in used to have this ,,, phone ,,,, PLS dont buy this ...

  • complite baze phone bcz there r lot of software problems.....

  • i bought nokia 5220 in march 2009, and in this 1.5 year it has given me a very bad experience. it is not a good phone at all. there are very few applications available for this phone. it hangs a lot.its video capture is horrible. sound quality is also not up to the mark as expected from an express music series phone. overall its a very bad phone.good for nothing.

  • may i know the cost of 5220 inbuilt speakers cost

  • hi all! can u plz tell me how to hide my inbox sms? plz.

  • this phone is good and absolutely nice, maybe because of its appearance, this phone has a sleek design that people would love, but the problem is, it always get stuck.. i'm using it for about 2 months.. i hope that these comments (not only mine) would make Nokia to improve thier work in making mobile phones.. :))

  • A great phone, had it for 2 years now and it's still working great. I have a 4 gb microsd card in it and in music player everything is going smoothly when you go through the music library, unlike some other phones. It's also very slim and compact I highly recommend it

  • i like this very much.....slim and stylish one by nokia product....

  • Congrats to NOKIA for making such a worst phone,from the second day itself i started facing problema with this phone,it was my first mobile and could not even think of such a worst experience from a phone it has so many prolems related to its software and functioning,nokia shud be ashamed of making such a phone and also selling it to the costumers,Secondly the service of the Nokia costumer care is worst i visited the costumer care atleast 8 times and they charged rs 250/- each time and no output,within a weeks time the phone got to the same condition. i have switched over to LG now and i am very satisfied,KINDLY MAINTAIN THE STANDARDS OF YOUR NAME AND QUALITY!!!!!! THANKS ALOT

  • I got this phone about two years, and is a good mobile phone has enough features and is good for those who enjoy listening to music and watch videos! But it can cause some problems such as the reboot of the software, or a bad connection with the battery. But these problems are the least important. My phone is giving me problems with the speakers, when I turn up the equalizer, the sound is loud and distorted! A few years later speakers look horribel!

  • I am using this mobile from last 2 years. Its has a very good sound quality..and has follwoing drowbacks: Restarst offen.....We never no when once 5220 will switchoff in the pocket. The battary/structure connectivity is not good.hence offen shuts down..need to format offen

  • worst phone ever after 1 month it self restarts after that music player stopped working and the radio (saying "not enough memory")lost all mu files from the phone memory. Same as the guy who had problems with it. You have to flash the whole mobile. Even with the latest firmware, it's still at it's own state. . Planning to change it with a 2nd hand 3120 classic.

  • ITs a bad set bad, it contain list of problem;; 1.Sudden hang & restart 2.unsmooth video play 3.sometime hang during taking photo. 4.record during conversation beep is too loud. 5.software flash require 6.screen spot. etc

  • amazing phone/ but need to tke good care of it

  • its olways busted! every month i have to pay for its repair! even if i take good care of it...it always ends up in fixing shops!

  • I have been using this model for more than a year now and so far it has been my best mobile phone... I had at least four other nokia models, but that is probably the best choice I have made-5220 red version. Low price, mp3 player, 2mp cam, low weight, thin... I might buy another nokia someday. But not now!

  • it is not a good cell but it looks nice is a cheapest fone in the world

  • this phone is not good... you can't download games to it because of its security issue.. its too bad.. you will not enjoy using it..

  • i recommend everybody not to buy this kind of cellphone.. because its so problematic.. it has no security.. the software can easily be corrupted.. you will spend much money on reprogramming.

  • try to take good care of ur fone; for me it works perfectly, have it for almost a year and nothing changes when i first used it.. gud fone, not that excelent but good enough..

  • After 3 months of using this phone: the earpiece stopped working. I need to use a headset when on call. After 5 months the loudspeaker malfunctioned after a year... The firmware gets corrupted so often. I have to reflash it using JAF at least twice a month! Yes, the phone gets corrupted (wont boot) at least twice a month. So i have to make backup often. But i find it very useful in browsing for free using a tweaked opera mini and listening to music (using my cx95 IEM)..the sound quality is not that good.

  • I had got this phone just 2 months back and it had already been sent to the service centre once and i got it back.... without the problem being rectified....It keeps hanging and switches on and off on its own accord...Please do not buy this Nokia 5220 Xpressmusic...It is awful....Total waste of money...

  • 5220 - full style...Gud music...NOTHING else....

  • very superb

  • Don't think that it is a bad phone. i m using this for last one and half years, and i m totally satisfied with the performance.the best part of the phone is its sound quality, for that u require a good head phone. i suggest go for sony head phone. dont expect to get good quality of music with the nokia head phone.

  • loosing data very often. phone was sent to cell c a month ago and came back in the same condition. please help!

  • bad phone do not buy this phone

  • It is bad fone which ever buld nokia.am using this fone for 2years so many software problem Do not choose nokia5220

  • very bad fone!!!

  • 5220 is no more in nigeria again WHY

  • why do u need gps on a phone do u get lost? the camera is ok. iand you dont need a big screen on a music phone. what i ment to say is it has everything i wanted.

  • @5220luva how can u say it has everything? this fone has a little 2.0 inches screen.. cam is just pathetic.. 2mp without any auto focus.. it has no GPS.. no WLAN.. n yeah battery timing is not gud either.. so i would rate it 4/10 .. yea 3.5mm jack.. o my god.. sumthing's gud finally :P

  • this is an awesome phone it has everything i ever wanted in a phone ppl who say they have problems just dont know how to use it

  • well i guest there must be some certain problems with its users why it turns itself on and off...maybe they cant use it with proper care...

  • its nokia's biggest blunder that can make user's life a 'HELL'

  • the sm farview have this cellphone

  • This is the most horrible Nokia phone ever. I've been using this for a year and in that time it's given me so much of problems. It goes off by itself, apps stop working, the sound quality sucks. Do not go in for this phone.

  • The best phone ever. Has a very loud audio, and very good picture and video quality. I recommend this phone for teenagers it's great!!!!!

  • the worst phone i have seen from nokia

  • this phone is really a crap.hangs now and then.displays goes often .. . used it for 1 year. . . 3 times sent it to nokia care..4th time it became a scrap. so dont go 4 dis .

  • I have bought a Nokia 5220 handset because of its music and to be very honest its one of the best handset Nokia has produced in regards to MUSIC.Nokia 5220 is better then Nokia 5130 in comparison of MUSIC.It's a basic handset and doesnt have many features.I have heard the same song on 5220 and 5130 with the same headset which is of nokia 5800 and the MUSIC was fantastic on 5220.I f you are a music lover go for 5220 but if you wants to access internet play games regularly then this is not a good one.I have read reviews of other people and they stated that battery drains out very quickly ,its correct but when you only use your to listen to music -make and receive calls and messaging it works fine-You cant expect more for such a economical handset . Regards, Sohail Khan

  • There is So Many Prob With dis Phone sometimes turn off automatically.it had a Lot of Software issue All My phone data havae been Removed Automatically.

  • it's not so bad i only suggest,higher phone memory and support java games that can blow up to 1MB+

  • not agood phone have some difficult to insert sim, sim inserting place is immidiately damages its socket

  • this phone is junk, hangs every now and then, loud speaker problem, not good in holding signals, music & camera is better than any other phone i have seen. over all poor performance. i will never recommend nokia 5220.

  • this is the most curropted phone i ever get,, better to buy 7210supernova with almost same specification, leaving the music quality....

  • On my opinion this phone is not so good i can't get an antivirus software and it has low battery life but the music clarity is just awsome when earphones are plugged the most attraction is that it is very slim and stylish

  • The first best feature of this phone is it is so slim.It is a stylish phone.but the battery life is not good.but it had great features.....

  • i am so happy to this mobile

  • this model is really great. but battery life and speakers are a bit poor...rest is fine..picture quality is good and the mobile is stylish.

  • i got this phone a week ago its a relly nice phone/ has some minor glitches but nothing to worry about for its price it is worth it

  • Its a really good mobile phone

  • i want to know that which software is used when software is gone?

  • hi, i just wanted to know does any external WLan exist for nokia 5220 music express

  • Hi there,I am in search of a affordable Nokia music phone.It will be used alot and don't want phone wich gives problems.I've read alot of reviews about the 5220 and the 5130.Any suggestions?

  • it's good....sound is quite good also...that's why i have it...lol

  • i am using this phone. voice clarity is not good with external speakers.other than this it is a excellant phone. picture quality is very good.i like this phone.

  • its designe is good&its sound also.

  • This phone is not good enough,its camera is poor,pictures are not clear.5220 XpressMusic often gets hanged without any reason.It takes nearly 15minutes to work properly after it gets hanged and the only solution to this is to take out the battery!For this reason I updated the software,the trick worked,but only 1 month,after that evrything was the same.I bought this phone for rough use,but these problems forced me to buy Nokia 5130 XpressMusic,though 5130 supports only 2gb card,but it camera is much better though both are 2megapixel and 5130 does not hang,(this phone hangs when a lot of its ram is used,specially if themes of size more than 4mb are used)

  • I thought it is one of the worst phone of nokia.I face so many problem about it such as restarting,hanging etc.Finally phones software damaged.I lost 30$ to repair it.but problem cannot be solved.

  • it has very good specifications and is not hanged.i am using this phone since released and it not gave any problem.this is very good phone for enjoying.

  • this phone i've been using it for 4 months and it works great, not problem and solve me all i need

  • se w890 is better than this.

  • try o update your phone using the pc suit

  • please do not buy this handset....

  • its very good cell phone i like it very much............................................­..

  • I bought this phone at sept 15, 2009. Months later, my phone got problems (speaker broke, rebooted, and hanged) i brought it to nokia care. It fixed. But a month later, my phone turned off by itself, and cant be turned on. The screen was white. So, i brought it to nokia care again. Now, a year from when i bought it, the speaker broke again, n the phone usually rebooted. If u read it, please do some thing for us. . Ur costumer

  • I am using this set just over a year. within the first 3-4 months it has got problem with Speaker. the Spekar got damaged. But after that there were no other problem. I have faced some problem at times while I was calling someone or talking to someone, all of a sudden it starts to vibrate and then it gets turned off. But in recent time am not facing this peculiar problem. But I got to say that its' look and sound system is really cool, and voice clarity through its' headphone is also quite good... Tn brief, its' a decent one....

  • I think Nokia should call back these phone back as Toyota is doing rigth now. I bought this phone last year and the phone went off just like that. i took it to Nokai care, they told me to come back after 7 days, i went back and they told me that it cannot be repaired. I bought another same 5220 and now it has gone off again. its a very bad phone. Nobody should buy that phone again. Its a very useless phone. In fact Nokia should be sued for selling this phone. Nokia should also refund whoever buys this phone.

  • im using this fone right now . and im experiencing a lot of troubles here . when i was texting . it rebooted and when i lOoked at my inbox and messages its all gone . and all the files in my gallery . even the manufactured file . even the alert tones and other

  • my phone deleted all my pesonal information and displayed another menu that i have seen for the first time(PPT)so i want to know will i be able to get it back?

  • agree. i've never ever experienced those bugs or something.

  • im using my 5220 phone for almost 1 1/2 years now.so far i have'nt encountered such big deal problems. the only issue about my phone is the backlight goes dim if using it in action. i mean if you press a button. the light goes dim. then after a few secs, the light goes bright again. it's ok coz i can still see the screen. as a music player, the device is excellent. physically, its easy to put in my pocket coz it's slim and lightweight. the predefined settings on the equalizer are quite good and balanced also. im using my pioneer se-mj5 headphones to listen to my tracks and it gives crystal clear audio. i just cant adjust the bass to the limit coz the output almost distorts. all in all i can say that the device is good and great for music playing. the sound is loud enough so i can listen to it perfectly without adjusting the volume to high.

  • files are not being saved into my nokia 5220 and my blue tooth service is not working

  • i hav bought this phone last january... now its warranty is over...and i m scared how much money this phone will consume for repair work.. always there is a software prob... nokia care executives hav the same answer... virus ...internet....downloading..etc..etc this phone is gud...but lacks stability

  • I think its a good phone. i love it very much but it is not a lifelong set. its software and hardware are too weak. i think nokia have to modify it.

  • there's a problm wid ma fone...its screen got blank nd not working....can anybody help me

  • Just keep updating firmware and it will reduce ur problems

  • My phone gave me problems during warrenty. Took it to Nokia Care who did all patch work. Just after warenty it showed similar problems. Now Nokia Care says that it cannot be repaired. Its pure and simple cheating by Nokia. Whats in a mobile phonne that it cannot be repaired. NOKIA MUST REPLACE THESE PHONES. ITS A DEFECTIVE SUB STANDARD PRODUCT TO START WITH. NOKIA PLEASE REPLY.

  • The most third class and bullshit phone I have ever bought. Nokia must have picked it up from a road side vendor. This is nothing but cheating the customers. The phone was given to Nokia Care thrice in thirteen months. Onexpiry of warrenty Nokia Care has declared the phone as DEAD. This warrents legal action against Nokia.

  • the most ugly

  • good quality, and the sound is louder than other express music.

  • no you cant..its advised not to use any other charger other than the original one given to you with the fone

  • I don't know but it works very well,i don't have any probs with this cell ever since i bought it =) good phone

  • Is it suggestable to buy Nokia 5220 Xpress Music.

  • Some advantages & disadvantages- DAdv: 1. Hangs when I go to photo galary and press "back" button 2. Camera frame rate is low. Sometimes pic come not clear. It depends on your pic taking ability. All pic I've taken is perfect 3. Batarry backup 1.5 day Adv: 1. Music is great(not applicable for the given headphone by nokia), try microlab or better headphone 2. Can support a lot games 3. Camera works really great in low light For any inf mail me- [email protected]

  • I suggest u that u go to mini.opera.com.then u download operamini version 4.2. It will be replaced for your previous operamini which was given with your handset. Then go to www.mobile9.com and register there. After registration u go to gallary and select ur phone.in the part named select catagory u select themes. If u perform all my suggestion properly i am sure that u will now download theme

  • i am very lucky because i am buy this phone. i am very very like this phone because style,colour,performance. i am satisify my invesment is not valuabue.

  • hey frds i too accept with the problems you all have told.,even my fone went to head off 2 times but the second time i dint use my memory card for 2days till now it dint show any problem bcoz i too had this question mark problem...it was bcoz of the virus that i cudin clear from my memory card., the latest software i have in ny fone is 7.23.....overall dis fone depends on user usage.waiting for any of ur comments?

  • I also can't download themes from main browser... However, i can only download themes from opera mini....

  • My calculator also disappeared... I was calculating when all on a sudden it restarted and the calculator disappeared!

  • In my opinion, its not a great phone... Often it can't play the mp4 format.. Moreover i even can't download youtube's videos from main browser. It always shows "No response, try again"... Often it restarts on its own.... But it's camera is very nice... Some photos went upto 700 to 800kb.... It also supports Ext. format songs or wallpapers........ Above all, its a good phone but not a great one...

  • i m also suffering with this problem .can u tell me how can i overcome by this software problem ..regularly this phone default items has going away ...this is 3rd time that all default items has been removed from this phone ... and when we play songs it says "not enough memory" can u tell me how can we set up again this mobile to get the software back. pls if u know than mail me at

  • just go for 5130XM

  • oh, well. i am using this phone for a year already. Don't believe others saying that this phone sucks because honestly, i didn't have any problems with the phone and it has many plus sides. in fact, the problem lies within the user themselves (being too rush in using this phone) BTW, if you have many complaints, why buy this kind of phone in the first place? duh. loser.

  • i am using dis phone since 1 yr n got a lot of probs in it i sent it to d head office thrice.......for 20 days each now also i dont have my phone n it is wid d care....so u go to d consumer corut i am wid u n also believe all d 5220 users all will support u ......it u need any help den send me an email to [email protected] ok.......

  • i am agree that this is a very bad phone!

  • Does this phone support 16GB memory card? Anybody has hands-on experience?

  • Im currently using it, I would not recommend it to anyone. It freezes or blanks out unexpectedly and applications delete themselves.. Like another reviewer said, my calculator disappears too.. Its quite problematic.

  • Unfortunately for you its not better than 5130. 5130 is has better audio quality and better performance.

  • i m using this mob since last 10 months.........its a worst mob ive ever seen..........dont bye this cell....its hangs very offenly...i have problem since this july....and nokia care centers r not responding my problens correctly so now i decided to register complaint in consumer court...............plz tell urs opinions...iam waiting

  • I am a happy user of this phone. Good thing. And, it's really loud when on built-in back speakers. Also the cam is quite cool for a phone (I don't suppose there should be a really powerful cam in the phone, or the user might forget the phone is for speaking and texts). Overall, I could give an 8/10 mark - when you are browsing the internet, battery gets drained quickly.

  • 5220 is very good condition! if you dont know to update the software.. it hangs.. but if you know it works great!!

  • @Omi, What do you mean by "not supporting theme download"? BTW have you ever used the phone? I can download themes and install them,The phone's never froze, and i have it for almost a year

  • yeah i had the same problem with mine it probably6 has viruses in the memorycard take it out and clean everything like photos or videos or music or other files on ur phone it will work clean your phone and memorycard but u dont need to erase contacts it will work i had the same problem mine also froze

  • hey if ur selling any phones like 5220 or 5310 plz contact me to this numb'r 9591034445

  • Today I brought this phone. It's amazing!! I'm in love with it...i think it looks better than nokia 5310. :D

  • all the best

  • Well, I must say that I have always liked Nokia XpressMusic phones. Well, today I went to a phone shop and saw Nokia 5220 XpressMusic. I asked my aprents and they said if I did well in the year-end examinations, they would buy it for me. I am excited and hope that I can do well.

  • ewwww. what an ugly thing

  • u r right.5130 is cheaper than 5220.in my country(india) 5130 costs Rs5400 and 5220 costs Rs7800-900.both this phones have almost same features.audio quality of 5130 is slightly better(i haven't tested it.but iam telling this after reading the review of 5130 by gsmarena).but because of its price nokia5130 is big hit.

  • did you change the resolution?? change it to 320X240 or try 160X120, both at 15 FPS

  • The problem with the video is that it has sound but I can't see the video. I have changed it into every known format and I still have the same problem. We even tried uploading it to my sister's phone then sending it to my phone, but that doesn't work either...

  • i bought a nokia 5220 2 months back and now i really repent buying it...every time i listen to music and remove the earphones and if i receive a call the phone keeps ringing for 15-20 minutes..iam unable to receive the call...none of the keys works at that time..finally i have to switch off the cell and restart it again to get it to normal....even the music its not that load...pls suggest me how to fix the problem

  • Hi, update your phone to the latest firmware(if you dont knw how to, then ask your dealer to do it for you)...this shd solve most of your freez and hang problem. Dont know why but its taking nokia long time to fix the hang and restart problem in 5220...they solved it with the very first firmware update on 5130. abt videos not playing... only two types of file formats will work, ie mp4 and 3gp...so make sure that the files you upload are in this format..else you will have to convert them using a video converter... choose mp4 format for conversion... also resolution shd be 320X240 or less... preferable video codec is xvid and video bitrate around 250-300kbps... Its like you said you can change the font color of date and time and that of service provider....for changing font color of time you will have to change theme or edit a current theme in S40 theme creator or carbide UI... Your phn can also become slow if the memory card is too fragmented...defragment MMC or copy all file to pc, format card and then copy them back. Hope this helps

  • I meant 7K in INR, in USD around $145-150

  • I use 5130 and its gr8...no freezes or hangs. Certainly the main difference is the audio quality of 5130 and the looks of 5220... If you do like the looks of 5220 then go ahead and buy 5220...BTW 5130 doesn't look too bad compared to 5220 but yes the extra thinkness does make it look bulky compared to 5220. The earsets of both phones sucks...If you are on a budget of around 7K...you have two options 1) buy 5220 2) buy 5130 + 4Gb MMC + good quality earphones(philips SHH9700 or creative EP-630). I went for 2nd option coz i like my music.

  • Thanks for your reply 'anonymous' Any other replies would be appreciated! :) ================================= I am hesitating between the 5130 and the 5220. I like the look and feel of the 5220 more, but the reviews and many people are pointing out some errors in the 5220. Some say that the 5220 freezes sometimes for no apparent reason, and that the ear-piece has problems too. Is the 5130 a better buy? If anyone who has a 5220 reads this, please let me know of any problems you are experiencing. I don't need to know it's advantages, I read them already :o)

  • i got a 5220 and i never had any problems.my firmware is 6.51 which is latest.both 5220 and 5130 are same.but sound quality of 5130 is better.5220 is equal to 5310 in sound quality.among the three handsets(5220,5310,5130) 5130 has the best sound quality(see the review of 5130-audio quality).but if u already have 5220 or 5310 there is no need to change to 5130 as all other features of this 3 fones are same.5130 is more cheaper but its thicker than 5220(14mm to 10mm)

  • I only want to know if I am the only one with this problems... I got my Xpressmusic 4 months ago and it: - switches of by itself - most music videos won't upload - freezes (I took out my memory card to see if it that is the problem, but it still happened) Can I please get a way to fix this. I have read through some posts and I have tried some suggested things like moving files into MMC Still the same problem. And when I wanted to take my phone in, then worker there said everyone is coming in with that problem? So should I just buy a new phone? And just something else I want to know, the time and service provider that is shown on the wallpaper, how can I change that color? I saw I can change the color of the month, but nothing else? Other than that, I like the phone, it's small and it has good sound and good quality.

  • New firmware: Version 7.23 is now available at the European nokia software update. Other regions will follow soon

  • New firmware available: Version 7.23 has been just posted on the European Nokia server. Other regions will probably follow soon.

  • today I just updated my 5220 software to v7.23 but I don't know how good it is.Wait and see

  • you can download the calculator app from mobile9.com. its not the correct solution but it shd be enough for now.

  • i was calculating with calculator and a incoming call came and after i ended d call ,the phone display if i wanted to cancell d progam and i click no and the phone hanged ,i then decide to swithoff d phone and after somtime i wswitched on the phone to discover that the space for calculator was no more on the phone till date. i dont know how i can get the calculator restored because i have restored it by going to resoter to factory settings and it didnt.

  • As I said about a month ago: 6.51 was removed from NSU (nokia software update). It is buggy and was temporarily replaced with the old version 5.63. I'm hoping for a new version soon, but nokia support wouldn't say when.

  • UPDATE UR FIRMWARE 6.51 is most stable no hanging prob.

  • 10 reasons going for 5220 Express music. 1.Active standby 2.Snappy camera with dimlight support 3.Dedicated keys for music. 4.Excellent organisar 5.USB port & 3.5in pin for earphone. 6.Full support 3rd party java sofware & Games. 7.Call recording feature. 8.Latest & userfriendly S40 interface. 9.Clicking a music file will directly open in music player 10.Tons of themes & applications available. Bugs/Cons in 5220 Xpress Music 1.Using camera may sometimes crash the phone. 2.Phone will reindex all songs in every startup & card eject. 3.Sim card slot under the battery, very hard to remove & insert. 4.USB is port very thin & special cable needed to connect. 5.Video recording is very poor in its class. 6. No Date & Time display in standby mode. 7. No converter is included. 5220 a winner over 6233 for a.Nokia Maps. b.Dedicated music keys. c.Nice set of enjoyable games d.Very sleek design. e.Clicking a file,directly plays in music player. f.Screen will go Standby mode while playing a song. g.Camera with good photos even in dim & dark light conditions. h.3.5mm audio jack & usb port for data cable. i.upto 8GB micro SD card support.

  • Mr Bhat 5130 do not have active standby...but flight mode is there...it came with no flght mode at first but flight mode was added with firmware update and newer phns come with flight mode...the came quality is same for both 5220 and 5130... But what sets 5130 apart is its awesome sound quality and cheap price...

  • If you really like the Nokia's Active standby feature, Then you definitely go for 5220 XM otherwise go for 5130. This model don't have active standby & flight mode feature.The camera is also too basic. So I strongly suggest you all to go for 5220 Xpress Music Santhosh.S.Bhat Kochi-2

  • well if u people realy understand wat a cell phone is n how it works, so its good for u, but in case u don't understand wats happening inside it then don't buy it, like a friend of mine here in posts said dat some files don't work so my dear frnd those files which r not completly downloaded in this cell can't b used 2nd about hanging or slow phone so i noticed this problm on the 1st day when i bought this phone n when i ws downloading some files into it, n suddenly my cell got hanged n i had to restart it 3 to 5 times then later i understand wat the problm is i moved all my files into the mmc( specialy from the folder recieved files) n after dat my phone is just gr8, working very well the only problm i think it has so its taking too much time in charge :(

  • hi .........yes nokia 5220 has got lots of haging problems.... u cant use mobile more than 15 min........ n it has got many software probs...i suggest u not to take it

  • for slim funky looks and battery backup...go for 5220 for everything else, including music quality..go for 5130.

  • Hi frnz.., i heard that this phone hangs a lot.., and has software problms, but m not sure.. plz , plz frnz plz reply. i am planing to buy one. which is bttr: 5130 or 5220? someone help me..

  • Hi guys can anyone tell me where can i download the nokia unit converter, my phone doesnt have it. I really like the nokia converter above the other brands.

  • This site would be damn boring if it only showed specs... this ways its a lot interesting and you can get real users opinion abt their and other phones... you can check specs in the manufactures site as well...so stop coming here if you think this is a retarded site. Thank You

  • "Maybe you missed or didnt read properly what i wrote...I said i have used both Philips SHH9700(my) and creative EP-630(friend's) on both 5130(mine) and 5220(my friend's). I used same song and 5130 sounded much better, you will know what i mean if your an audiophile...it was also accepted by my 5220 owner friend that 5130 has better quality sound." Are you an audiophile? then why are you using a Philips/Ep-630 headphone shouldnt you be using something like Shure or Sennheiser? They have the same sound quality man, dont use equalizers and the stereo widenning. Just you the flat equlizers. Same sound quality. And regarding the music player theme, dont misled others man, you cant change the music player and radio theme in 5220 and 5130 unless you hack it using oxycube. if a user dosent know how to use it properly their phones will be bricked. And regarding the flashlite player, how many good flash lite applications are there anyway? probably less than 10. Compare that to Java apps which is the defacto applications in S40 phones. 5220 in faster in java apps. Your such a 5130 fanboy lol, post on the 5130 boards pls. Dont make it as if the 5130 is that much better because it's not, man. Both phones are almost the same but 5220 is just a notch better right now. Wait for a 5130 firmware update then maybe it will surpass the 5220 then.

  • i Think you buy 5220 better.bcoz the shape very attractive my friends.about the camera-when you capture and display on the phone is bad,but you see your picture in the computer,its much clear then you think.

  • "5130's camera is not better than 5220 and the sound quality is the same, use a decent headphone and listen to the same song, don't just look at a graph" no one said 5130 has better cam...its same Maybe you missed or didnt read properly what i wrote...I said i have used both Philips SHH9700(my) and creative EP-630(friend's) on both 5130(mine) and 5220(my friend's). I used same song and 5130 sounded much better, you will know what i mean if your an audiophile...it was also accepted by my 5220 owner friend that 5130 has better quality sound. "5220's music player theme is better than 5130. You can barely see the album art in the 5130 player" yes 5220 skins do show album arts better...but, do you know that you can change music player skins...im not talking abt changing to skins already given in the phone... I have installed 5220 red, 5220 blue, 6600 slide, 3600 slide and 7210SN's music player skin on my 5130. you can do the same on 5220 too...So the small album art thing is not applicable for me as i use different skins than the default ones. (you need to install a software on pc for you to access hidden themes and player skins folders of your phone) "Themes look horrible in 5130, red and teal is just bad" this is an idi0tic comment...themes can be changed at will...all XpressMusic skins are available for download from net. "5220 is faster than 5130 both in UI and Java Apps" Its not faster...they are pretty much same. Flash is faster and smoother in 5130. Also UI speed depends a lot on what theme you are using.

  • Guys if you don't have both 5130 and 5220 and just compare the other with reviews and other people's opinion, then you better just shut up because, what gives you the right to comment if you just rely on reviews on the internet and don't have the phone personally to make a unbiased comparison?

  • 5130's camera is not better than 5220 and the sound quality is the same, use a decent headphone and listen to the same song, don't just look at a graph. 5220's music player theme is better than 5130. You can barely see the album art in the 5130 player. Themes look horrible in 5130, red and teal is just bad. 5220 is faster than 5130 both in UI and Java Apps. lastly, why are you such a 5130 fanboy? 5130 is a good phone but 5220 is a notch better. You just gotta accept that buddy.

  • are you are tard? what other phones lasts more than 4 days after heavy use these days?

  • 5220 iz not at all preferable..it has lots of technical problems..itz batt needs 2.5hrs of charging and itz hardly last 4 a day..better go 4 another 1 den dis..

  • ok...now that is a very confusing post...hehe you say 5130 sucks...and then you say it looks cool and has better music sound... then how does it suck?? all other features are pretty much same. If you are simply missing 5220 then understandable. I had 6300 before...got stolen and then bought 5130. though 6300 is no match for 5130 in anything other than screen...i miss it a lot...it was the best looking phn nokia has made.

  • what happened to all the posts???

  • the 5130 sucks ijust got it because my 5220 got stolen by the stupid gardenboy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i wish i had it back.but the 5130 looks kinda cool an dthe sounds good but i miss my funky shaped 5220.I MISS IT ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • plz tell me tat between NOKIA 5130 & 5220 which is da best

  • Can some one please tell me if there is a call blocking software for this phone. Nokia s40 platform. Thnx

  • please dont mislead people who ask for help... cam quality is same on both phones...both use same camera unit and same technology(NIPS). Audio/music quality is definitely better in 5130. You can read the review if you please or test a real phone yourself using good headphones like creative EP-630 or Philips SHH9700. 5130 music quality is equal to ipod touch 2G and iphone 3GS...Its even better than 5800XM iphone 3G and ipods, 5220 is not in the same league. Yes...keypad is better in 5220. 5130's keys are a bit hard to press, it does get very soft over time. And the back is prone to scratches but it looks a lot better than 5220s back cover.

  • hi bluemoon, i purchaesd 5130 because that is the cheapest of all xpressmusic series, i'm satisfied with all od it's features. i don't know about you but if i were you, i'll go for 5130. that is only my opinion, ok?

  • my nokia 5220 has a problem in displaying message. once i recieved a quote from my friends it usually have spaces in between but in my phone it has no SPACES! for example: always rmmber dat u can nver find a perfect partner to love u d way u wanted, only a person who's willing to love u more than wat u r. sm1 who'll accept u for wat u can&can't be.. & that's even better than perfect. AND IT WILL GO LIKE THIS! always rmmber dat u can nver find a perfect partner to love u d way u wanted, only a person who's willing to love u more than wat u r. sm1 who'll accept u for wat u can&can't be.. & that's even better than perfect. HOW COME?!! ive serch all the possible setting in my phone but nothing works. could anyone help me with this problem?

  • U go for 5220 for camera and xceptional MUSIC quality. Keypad too good in 5220, Back cover wnt get scratch unlike in 5130. But for the price.....u have to thnk.

  • pls anybody guide me which has better camera 5220 or 5130?iwant to buy one of them.pls tell me to take right decssion. thnx

  • prototype didnt have stereo speakers on the trim...the speaker was located in the back...it had led lights on left trim just like production model...only site to review the prototype properly is mobile-reviews.com. and the back cover is not made of dots(only the speaker portion has dots)...the dots you are talking about in engraved in the inner layer of back cover whc is covered by a smooth transparent layer(its a dual layer material).

  • hi, which is better for music? nokia 5130express, w395, w350 or 5220 express music in terms of loudness, clarity with good bass in headphones and speakers, both. And which one is better for internet browsing grps 10 and edge 10 class(236.8 kbps) with 3g hsdpa (3.6 mbps)or 2g gprs 32 and edge 32 with hscsd? does it has to do anything with 3g network for better and fast internet browsing on pc becz my network doesnt support 3g services, so pls tell me which wud be better for me even with 3g or without 3g for net on pc. Thanks.

  • hi, hows the bass of this phone? hows the internet browsing on pc by this phone comparitively n73 as i m using it already. hows the battery back up, sure for music? hows the sound comparitively w395, w350 and 5130 express music on headphone and from speakers? which phone is better for music and internet browsing on pc w350, w395, 5130 express music or 5220 express music? Thanks.

  • 5130's battery life sucks compared to 5220, which is crazy because both use BL-5C battery.

  • i use 5220 and my brother use 5130. i think 5220 is better on design. but when i compare both phone on music quality and use same headphone creative EP630 i think 5130 much better than my 5220. and i think the loudspeaker of 5130 is better than my 5220.

  • Um, just because the reviewers like the 5130's backcover doesnt mean its a fact, in fact there are reviews that like 5220's back cover aswell. AFAIK, the production 5130 is different from the prototype 5130. The prototype 5130 had stereo speakers located where the silver trim of the production 5130's are and it had a smooth backcover no "dots", maybe thats the model the reviewers evaluated.

  • way i know the sound, low or high

  • " the silver trim on the sides and the "dotted" back cover looks horrible!" not as horrible as 5220 back cover...actually many ppl as impressed with 5130s back cover. All review sites hails its design and built quality...Simply because you dont like it doesn't make it worse. Now im not a 5130 fan..im a proud 5220 user.

  • 5130 and 5220 have same hardware and all themes and games that work in 5220 will work with 5130. Now 6300 is inferior to 5220 and 5130 as it uses an outdated software. Flash animations are better and smoother in 5130 than 5220.

  • i want to know if sound in ring tone is loud or low ? or the sound is low and being loud?

  • My little lass has had two of these in four months. When they work they are an okay phone but they are made from cheap materials and really do Nokia no justice. Finally made a switch with her provider to a 3120 classic, here's hoping.

  • Lots of 5130 fanboys here lol. Your 5130 aint better than 5220, i tested my cousins 5130 against my 5220 and i can honesty say that 5220 is better. Here's my conclusion: 5220 has a better: design, keypad, battery life, camera, themes, music player, included apps and games, response time in ui and java apps, reception. 5220 and 5130 has comparable: loudspeaker, sound quality in headphones, screen 5130 looks cheap, the silver trim on the sides and the "dotted" back cover looks horrible! 5130 owners your phone aint that good!

  • i totally restore factory setting and nothing happennnnn

  • it's the best!

  • hi i have downloaded nokia 5220 firmware and install it on my pc now pls help me how to load this firmware on my mobile my email id is [email protected]

  • It may b coz u r using a big theme(in size) or u r a heavy gprs user... Try using sum small size themes and if it hsn't helpd u thn clear the cache memory whch z the 8th option in web.

  • dis set is nice a totally girly set and luks nice in hands and i dont think dat da mobile needs charging earlier. the colours of da set r awesum and em having no complaints wid dis set!!!!!!! so best ov luck to da person who buyz it!!

  • this set is stylish looks good in hands and by the grace of ALLAH i am not having any problem in it.. best ov luck

  • From my recent experience i haven't had any hangs that people are talking about. Not with the firmware 4.00 or the latest 5.63. Will also wait for the newer one to test it out. Battery life is good. Interface isn't slow, but not super fast either. I still found some midi files that won't work. Keep in mind that this is a 100% girly phone, buttons are durable for high fingernails. Camera is not worth talking about. The only software problem i have is that applications can't access GPRS. Probably a faulty configuration.

  • Big deal all of you like 5130 My bro has so what It is only compact this phone can actually help to take responsibility Thats why I like it

  • Alright I just got the phone nokia 5220 and my bro got 5130 so far I think that 5130 beats 5220 in light and music but... It doesnt beat it in hardware I put a 2gb memory card and buetoothed some themes and games from 6300 and men this phone rocks Dont listen to people around you critisizing this phone Even me I also read all the oppinions and had second thought about this phone but Its your choice But THIS PHONE ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

  • there is reli no point usin the in built memory get a memeory card.......go to virgin mobile acesories.... 2gb fo a tenner but u can get it cheaper.....

  • 120kb left in phone memory and there no item saved in it used is 4.5mb. so where my space gone. before amonth it has 10mb total space.helpppp...

  • it is good handset but it loses power so fast .. and can not see screen in sunlight

  • To connect your phone to the PC you have to install Nokia PC suit first... It's in your bundle (CD) you purchase with the phone... Then you connect the USB cable and phone will ask which connection type then you should say USB cable... That's all... Good luck brother...

  • However personally I like 5130 more than 5220... Price is very law one fact... Phone is beautiful... 5220 hangs everytime... I hate that...

  • totally agree with you dude...! 5220 is much better than 5130... (Music quality wise) I think people have confused "Sound Loudness" and "Sound Quality" Those are Two seperate things...! Cheers// However I think latest firmware of 5220 increase the sound quality greatly...

  • Like I said my friend, *5130 is beautiful than 5220 *5130 is newer than 5220 *5130 has 16M color screen while 5220 has less *5220 slimer and battery capacity is higher *strength I suppose both are same... (I couldn't check that because even though I can drop my phone I can not drop my friend's phone to check the strength...!) *Audio is louder in 5130 But after all, *But Audio Quality is better in 5220 (But I'm afraid you have to have a crystal clear sound sensitive ear...! You have to know the meaning of Crystal clear sound...) Some people use the same poor headset nokia gives them and compare...! I can only laugh at them... You take creative labs headset and then compare...!) Good Luck...

  • Nokia 5220 is the right phone at the right time. But many of the users including me have experienced a fault on our 5220 which has caused its speaker not to work at all, not even a beep... It just stopped working during playback...pls it has render our phone useless and we don't know what to do.. Pls help us to post possibly solution or send it to +234706 440 0688

  • ah, there they are :D

  • where have all the comments gone? anyway, still waiting for a firmware update, as 6.51 has quite a few bugs.

  • how can i connect my phone with usb cable? I tried a lot to get connected but it never work? So what is the procedures i have to follow ?

  • no good backup and while playig music it hangs many times and if more than 20min we talk it gets heat up and hand out and it restarts many complaints when compared to nokia 6233

  • dont know what u r talking abt...5130 is well ahead in terms of audio quality. to confirm you can read the review of both given by gsmarena...look at audio quality part...5130 equal to ipod touch 2G.

  • convert videos with lower bitrates and it will play well. 320X240@15fps with a video bitrate below 200kbps will play without any hang.

  • Whats the latest firmware for this phone?

  • Dear Rehan... Nokia 5220 not support FLV (Flash Video Format).. You need converter to convert this video in mp4, avi or any mobile device format with urz mobile supports. Regards: Khawar Junjoi

  • I don't like look of 5220 but i like by the look of 5130

  • is 5220 better or 5320

  • If you want to add videos you will have to download a converter... (Search internet for one of these...) But... I'm telling you... This phone really sucks when playing videos... I love this phone and using it for 9 months but I only appreciate it's durability, rigidity and the MUSIC... (Music is great... YOu know...) But Camera, Video recording, Video playback... All those are really really really sucks...!!! I don't even think to play any video song in this phone... VERY SLOW.... Sorry for the dissapointment.. But I love this phone as it does what I want... It plays great Music... It never breaks when I throw it at my DOG... Very slim and still supports up to 16 GB...! (I'm full of MUSIC...) that's all I care...

  • I don't thikn 5220 needs extra care..! I'm using very carelessly and have not faced any trouble than "spreading battery, cover and phone all over the place each time I drop the phone from a height..." No issues.. When I fix the things back.. It works without any prob... I'm using this phone for 9 months.. Now my talk time is more than 500 hours..! and I use this with no care.. I drop it, throw it... But it's my type I think... Nokia is simply great... Because this very slim phone is very rigid and hard than it seems... Believe me...!

  • No... I don't think so... I tested both using same song and same head set... (Creative) Music Quality wise 5220 is ahead of 5130... But sound loudness I think 5130 has bit louder sound than 5220... But for me... I never increase volume in 5220 (which I'm using) than level 4 or 5 usind Creative headset... (Because I don't want to be a deaf...!) So No doubt 5220 is Great than 5130 when you consider Music... But I personally think more beautiful phone is 5130..

  • You fool dont you know that a video has to be converted before transfeering it into mobile. direct video that you have in your pc cannot be supported by your phon. so what you waiting for. go ahead and buy a 2gb converter.

  • Pls buy the the phone its too good, but it needs extra care

  • the phone is fine and comfortable to use but easily attacked by viral informations

  • 5130 is not better, it looks cheap but the build quality is solid

  • i think 5130 is better.

  • i am using this phone for the last 4 months. unfortunately, got some unstable hands for cell phones and dropped it on the floor some times but working well, no technical problems occur. Not a very good phone but no doubt one of best in this price. ear phones are ridiculous. u have to buy new ear phones. m using bh103 nokia, and having a good experience of sound.(can also use ep630) speakers are just ok. but for sure this phone is nokia's and have similar durability as its other phones and a good deal in the price.

  • which is better 5220 or 5130? They say 5130 has much better audio quality.

  • Did anyone can tell how to upload music videos to this phone. Is this phone support to FLV videos... I tried to upload some videos.. but file format is not supported. So can anyone tell how to add music videos plzzzzzzz????

  • To charge this device do not use hole used for earphones. Use instead the hole on top left.

  • how 2 cahrge this phone??i cant put it in plug the hole is so big and the cahrger pin is so small...can somebody tell me plsss wat to do now?Thanks

  • Does this site clear all the opinions once they have reached 100000?

  • ghanta rocks .... .this moble is rubbish 1. the music player n camera gets hanged up frequently 2. it gets switched off automaticlly 2. sometimes,it does not make or receive any call 3. call ringer also dosent work 4. it shows the incorrect time of receiving sms 5. phone memory is almost empty..but still it shows to delete some items as the memory is full 6. whenever we delete a clicked image, it shows "unable to delete" 7. many applications fail to open What else u need now ???? Just dont buy it

  • not good it's too bad................ don't buy tis,,,,,.........

  • hi guys! can you guys please help me? i like this phone and its probably the best phone i can get on my upgrade, should i get it or not? thanks :)

  • Firmware version 6.51 has been removed from Nokia update. They are back to the older version 5.63. No official reason has been given, but 6.51 has been known to cause different problems, themes corruption is one of them.

  • plssssss DONT BUY THIS PHONE if you are really looking for problem then you can go for this.. has everyproblem, it gets hung, it'll get automatically switch off.. and when it becomes 3 months old it will give software problem.. dont ever opt for this phone specially,...

  • If u r planning to buy 5220 then DO NOT BUY this phone. i m using this phone from last 6 months and there r the pros and cons(advantage-disadvantage) cons 1. very bad display if u see from angle then there is a problem with its display. 2. music sound quality both in speakers and ear pieces is not good. and also not too loud. 3.camera is 2 mp but its even worst than vga camera. 4. battery backup is not too good. now pros 1. good design. 2. music lights,when u play music then these lights blink. Now if u want to waste ur money then Go buy this phone,otherwise if u value ur money then DO NOT BUY this phone.

  • Very cool phone!

  • I like it this to what about the price

  • ya u are rite red colour looks funky than blue btw thanks for reply.aite so yo,ChiOw...

  • The firmware version 6.51 improves overall system stability. Here's what I've noticed: I have seen a huge improvement in video playing capabilities. High bitrate files used to skip and lag badly whether in fullscreen or not. This has been resolved. Plus a few shortcuts created by way of additional key mapping in selected applications. Navigation in the menus has been sped up. Launching and closing of apps also seem faster. Music playback volume seems to have been increased with better clarity as well. Good update overall, I reckon.

  • Is that possible to disable mediaplayer while opening files directly from folder?

  • worst design

  • can i download avi player if not than another which i can use in place of avi player . and i want to load any adobe reader so that i can read so of the download papers of my university paper.

  • aite so yo,thanks draza for the information...

  • red is preferable than blue because red is dominative colour than other colours and at the same way panel colour ll not be faded for long time(if it is red)

  • wat a wierd fone!!!!!!!!!!

  • u just update da software. its very easy. u can update it online 4m ur home. if any further details u want then mail me. [email protected]

  • Hello Monika Ur Phone Is Restart In Not Ur Phone Problem Problem In Ur Memory Card There Have Some Virus Check And Delete The Virus Ok

  • @Donut, you just download the latest NSU (Nokia Software Update) software, charge the battery full, switch the profile to General, plug the Phone into USB of your PC, start NSU, it checks for available firmware update (v6.51 is the latest) and asks you if you want to update it. You click yes and then just wait until it finishes, dont touch your phone in the process and dont disconnect it under any circumstances. The update process takes about 15 minutes. First it downloads the new firmware and afterwards it flashes the phone. I have done it yesterday, updated from v4.8 to v6.5, it went smoothly. NSU says "dont panic" during the update, and thats all you gotta do. Just follow the steps above and you'll do just fine.

  • what is a micro usb mean?

  • DoNut says,aite soyo,its me again Donut yall know wat i mean??nvm...hey can somebody tell how 2 download 5220 software??step by step Thanks yall...

The keypads stop working, the phone hangs terribly as though its humiliated and want a revenge. . . A thorough waste of Money and high time disappointer..........

  • Handset is very beautiful bt battery timing is not so gud.i purchased it in blue color.NOKIA Company should improve its talking time.

  • 5220 is the batter one then 5130 and its music better then 5310 so choise is yours choose it & bring it.

Finally my lovely 5220 is shining back on my hand, after 24 hours of recharging the battery, it is not fully charged and died after 2 hours in idle mode. i brought it back to nokia..... after 2 weeks it is still not fixed... this phone is just a crap.. it is not working well, it always malfunction.. it is a waste of money, I am from a poor country and buying handset like this needs a month hard work. but nokia doens't care about it, they dont want to replace it and i don't know why. I will never buy nokia phone anymore...

  • Hey guys, I just updated to v6.51 and it rocks! The best in audio quality since v4.00. No m0re bugs, re-starts or wat so ever. I love dis f0ne! Rock\m/awN!

  • Hi All, I purchased this phone based on the appealing looks and mindblowing features. this little beauty was brought on september 12th 2008 and she disappointed my like never before, started facing problems right from the 2nd month of its purchase. 1) 2month of Purchase:- The speakers of the phone are damamged when it is basically used only for my rintones to be audiable and not for hearing any songs stored in the phone. 2) 2months 7 days :- The phone automatically switches off and restarts by itself and the settings are converted to factory settings. 3) 4th Month:- The phone starts hanging like its drunk the day. 4) 5th month:- unable to receive calls (very often) as the call receiving button does not work, and end up missing the call. 5) 6th month :- the Phone starts vibrating when I am still conversing over the phone when there is any msg received or call waiting ( which makes no sense) 6) 6 months 4weeks:- the Phone battery doesn't even last for 5 hrs. 7) 7th month and so on :- she has become a scrap to me :( every 2 months I get her a visit to a repair store and pained myself within seeing her dismantled but unfortunately the very next week she is again back to her stubborn malfunctions. but she is not the one to be discarded, I have requested for a replacement. But in vain I have lost trust on her functions.... I have also discussed with many of my collegues who have purchased the same model and face multiple other problems apart from the above mentioned.... I still would suggest for ppl who go by looks and not maoney value :(

  • i got it 3 months ago and i only had 1 problem with the sim but i got it fixed and now it is working. There is only one thing i hate bout it doesnt have flash wen u taking a picture

  • does it have flash light?

  • phone not work.begin red text contact service.please answer nokia 5220

  • My new phone broken.Do not open and begin contact service red text.all repair can not phone me

  • no it can not show 16 gb if u tri it with 16 gb it work very slow even to next option it will take 7 or 8 mintus

  • Nuwan: "I through this phone several times but never gave me a trouble..!" Check out this 5220-designed silicon-protection. Fits like a glove - I use it myself. With that wrapped around your phone its likely to survive even more punishment. ;-) The link leads to a swedish website, but you can e-mail them in english. The protection is branded "Capdase". www.screenguard.se/products/Silikonram-till-Noki­a-5220.html

  • anyone know how much is it in dubai?? plz!!!

  • 2da I've bought this phone.Simply it s a great phone spl 4 d internet.

  • its written.. upto 8 gb u dumb..

  • Can only take up to 8Gb

  • Can only take up to 8Gb

  • This Phone supports 8 GB for sure... No doubt about it... But I checked it with the latest firmware installed in my phone.. Don't know whether the old firmware doesn't support or not... So that first of all update your firmware then buy a micro SD card... For 16 GB I believe this phone would support but don't know for sure.. I didn't have any chance to experiment that..

  • It is a great musical phone

  • Anybody knows if it works with a 16gb memory..??? Anybody has tried??? I'm really ansious.. I want an aswer pleaseeeee!!

  • Kindly inform that exchange server works on Nokia 5220 or not.

  • Nokia also mentions that 5130XM supports 2Gb....but it can support 16Gb without any problem.

  • Hi guys. Anyone out there who syncs the 5220 with a Mac? I could not find a good working isync plugin until now. Greetings

  • On Nokia web it is clearly mentioned that it supports upto 4GB but in this web the supported memory is 8GB so which one is reliable either the manufacturer or the third host.....check it

  • I Just fell in love with it's shape....it's a fully fledged phone, with best camera, best sound and best voice clearity..and what to say..for me this is the best phone of the year!

  • Nokia is simply the best... I'm using this phone (5220) now for 6 months and completely satisfactory about it.. Here I'm going to give certain comments (Good and Bad about my experience with this phone..) 1) Sound quality is excellent (I even compared with N70 and w580i, still 5220 is better...! I assure that..) 2) Design is pretty cool, best for hard use (I through this phone several times but never gave me a trouble..! Don't ask why I through the phone..! That's private...!) 3) My call duration is more than 400 hours for this 7 months... My SMS count is 10,000! But no worries.. Much more space for more SMS...! Phone is just as before.. Working so fine... 4) Loudspeaker sound, Original nokia headset sound Sucks..! You better buy Creative EP 630 which will give you an amazing sound experience... (Even Sony Ericsson head set would do better than nokia original head set.. I don't know why nokia people giving us the best music chips with the worst head sets...!!!) 5) Outer cover is made by cheap material.. I mean even though it's so rigid so that durable.. It is having scratches and lines so easily so that beauty of the phone will disappear so soon if you are a hard user like me... (But for me this is not a big issue as I only concern about the Music quality...) 6) Very rarely phone restarts when we do things with a little hurry... But not a slow phone at all... My phone (with 4 GB memory card) is working faster than N70... 7) Forget about the camera because it's totally sucks...! 8) Battery life is pretty good but not the best... I wish I could hear music for several days non stop...! However I have to say this phone has better battery life than most of other Nokia phones... 9) I updated firmware to 6.5 though I didn't feel any big difference... But I feel now it accesses the memory card rather faster... I'm not so sure.... Think this description will help for someone who's going to buy this phone... For me I love this phone (Overall) and I recommend it for anyone who LOVES music...! Thanks...

  • This Phone Is the Best !! it's speaker is great.

  • after some days, I've just figured out that battery running out so fast with 6.51; with the previous 5.20 i can stretch to 3 days with normal useage. But now i can last for 2 days with the same useage. Disapointed!

  • To solve all the problem with the phone:(Just to remind that EVERY PHONE HAS ITS PROBLEM): 1. Warrant 2. Update firmware Don't moan because your particular problem. It's just bad luck when u got a broken phone. Trust me, 5220 is a decent phone.

  • nope, SE walkman sucks

  • I am having a problem with the Music Player's settings regarding the equalizer. It shows java on the settings and when I click it, it says operation failed. I used to remember the different kind of equalizer settings that I can choose from, but it's not available now. I wonder how this java started to appear in the equalizer and how I can remove it, so as to restore its original setting on the equalizer. Please help me anyone, thank you so much.

  • buy a walkman. anything but 5220 trust me

  • no its not it hangs all the time and restarts. go for something else. not this phone

  • cant use this phone anymore. it used to always hang and now whenever i turn it on, it shows the nokia welcome thing with the hands and then hangs and goes to that blank white screen and shuts itself off again. i cant go to the menus or anything. WASTE OF MONEEY! seriously DONT BUY IT!

  • i want to give 5220 xpress music,please tell me is d performance of this phone is good?

  • hi, i'd just like to know whether the 5220 is quad band or not? thank you.

  • janu telenor chor MOBILINK main aaao aur sunao

  • yes,5130 is as good as 5220. I think both of them have nearly the same feature and quality. Don't try to praise one and dumb the other.

  • you can get better in 5130XM, that too at a lower price

  • i am confused between this mobile and nokia 5130. can anyone help me out which one to choose ?

  • wow 6.51 is really good, sound quality improve so much. Good work nokia. 5220 is a decent phone, i doubt you can get a better all-around phone at its price.

  • kindily replace ur sim again

  • I have bought this phone 3 weeks back.I am having a problem with the Sim card. Whenever I put my sim in the 5220XM(Xpress Music)it showing the message"SIM CARD NOT INSERT".I also went to the my SIM connection's(Telenor)head office and get the DUPLICATE SIM of my number after that my phone was working fine but after 12 days i am facing the same problem with my new sim.I also went to the mobile shops they said that there is no issue with the phone their is a problem with your SIM but my sim is working absolutely fine on my other mobile.Could anyone help me?

  • Install "Nokia PC Suite" and connect your phone. Open PC Suite and click the Update-icon. You may have to update the update-app itself first, before you can update the 5220 firmware to latest v6.51. Only update then battery-level is high.

  • oops i mean *#7780*, it's the factory reset command

  • LOL all you have to do is key in *#7370# to reset the settings and the "?" in the loading bar will be gone. tough luck man!

  • depends on your region, my phone is from South East Asia and 6.51 is available already

  • how to make my 5220 express music voice tag

  • I have bought this phone 3 months back.I am using version 4.00.From the past 2 weeks I am having a problem with volume controller buttons.whenever I adjust the volume the song is pausing at regular intervals making me to restart the phone.could anyone help me???

  • hi deepak, if you want best result in suond quality you'd buy 5130 XM. it has the best sound. i had 5310 and 5220 XM before, but sounds suck. so if you wanna buy the best music phone, buy 5130 XM not 5310 or 5220

  • there is firmware 4.86 in the nokia website..where is the firmware 6.5?

  • Im using this phone since the past 6 months and continuesly updating my phone software, how ever when I updated the software to version 5.63 the animation on the loading baar was gone and it showed a "question mark" I re-installed but nothing changed.. then after some time I switched my cell phone off for changing the sim and when I opened it something was wrong ... The phone memory was WIPPED out completely the whole 28MB was free, The default theme was gone, the music player was not openeing, giveing the message not enough memory... the transiction effect, if on then the screen was blinking on every move.. I try to update my phone software but It was not getting detected on my pc any more and when I installed the pc suite it got the phone and still was not able to update the phone. in the end when it says 15 min remaining my phone stuck and it says BBS AGENT driver not installed.. Im seriously confused whats wrong with it and what caused it, I Love my phone and I want it to be the way it was.. Any of you faced this problem? how can I repair it since its a Software malfunctioning issue and not hardware.

  • firmware 6.51 is good, the sound quality improved alot, it's actually much better than 4.00 which previously had the best sound quality.

  • dude, w910i has crappy sound quality it has low volume and it sounds muddy using headphones. 100% volume on w910 = 30% volume on 5220

  • go for 5130XM...best audio quality ever on any phone

  • well, 5220 is such a great phone, i have never regret purchasing the phone... it is truly an express musicccccccccccccc of its class.............................. simplicity with world class spirit.....

  • Guys i want to buy dis phone??? is it gud ??? I m luking 4 a music oriented phn. please help

  • to update u must have install the nokia pc suite that comes with the phone's cd.open it and click the update software icon ( green color ).Of course u must be online. During this period the phone will on & off by itself .Just let it do its job. When its done it will reset itself and thats all.

  • from where to get v6.51??

  • My 5220 is very good. Just update it to v6.51 and am satisfied,so far no more shutting down problems.Its sound is good but the sonyW910i is just a bit better soundwise.Sometimes I find it a bit difficult to differentiate the sound quality with the sony W910i. It is that good.My battery is also very good .See how many g-o-o-d-s i have to say here.

  • sound quality is not good to hear with the loud speaker however is is excellent to hear with the head phones or walkman

  • forgot to say, with fw 6.51 acessing the memory card is WAY faster. so long for the 1s lag between menus.

  • how can i forward da picture message?

  • why isnt Nokia publishing a changelog for the firmware that it releases?

  • or you can buy creative EP-630, Phillips SHH 9700 for good bass in earsets

  • If wanna a good speaker in mobile, better used a external speaker.If wan "bass" in mobile,better buy a subwoofer.

  • its my phone now and its good but a few weeks it is not working well

  • buy 5130

  • i hav been using this phone for 30days now..i bought it for its long battery life n longer music play back time n looks.n im satisfied with its performance..the phone restarted 5times till now...my biggest problem s if i recieve a new message while typing a message the phone pauses for a second..(wen im typing a msg fast, i get a new msg, n the phone hangs for a second n i loose my flow in typing n i hav to wait for a second n continue typing).is this common in all 5220's? i hav v04.86 firm ware...will updating to v05 resolve this prob..i did not hav this prob in my 5300xm.....and wats the difference in features between v04 n v05 firmware??..reply guys

  • 5130 is much better..

  • I recenly updates my phone with firmware 6.51, What I have noticed It really made my Nokia super fast. I'm using 4 GB card still it is fast enough and the old software was so buggy which is 4.00. Another great update is It made my sound more crystal clear, Now I can beat my cousins w810i:D By the way to heck your software version you can dial *#0000#. Cheers.

  • fully flop model more problems in all kinds of parts in this model

  • the best phone forever ..........................nokia is best ...................for best java games and software contact [email protected]

  • My pjone is 3 months old and the screen just went white!!!! HELP I don't like Nokia anymore....this is my fourth Nokia and I 3 had LCD problems...I have always been brand loyal...But not anymore....Nokia has dissappointed me too many times :-(((((

  • i am using since this fthe virus problem

  • The restart issue is solved by updating firmware...

  • The restart problem is solved by updating firmware.

  • I hate all handset model of Nokia's XpressMusic. It turns off and turns on all by itself. Nokia releases new models almost everweek! I hate it!

  • you wont get good bass in any mobile's loud speakers

  • I bought the Nokia 5220 because its a good little Allrounder.Like most mobiles, I think its built in speaker is crap,No Bass. The small twin active speaker is a bit cumbersome being almost the same size as the phone, but exchange the earphones for a decent set and it comes alive. The 8GB Memory card is a must have.

  • "for the front side both are made of similar materials" i meant both 5220 and 5130 are made similar materials

  • yes i have owned 5220...i hated its backcover...made of some cheap plastics...5130 is made of better material.. the back cover is superb..ya and i knw ppl tend to think that anything thats glossy is cheap...those who do get a chance to take a look at 5130 shd look at parts more carefully...its made double layered materials and not like 7210....for the front side both are made of similar materials... loudspeaker of 5220 is better...but i can see a clear difference in audio quality while using headphns... I used creative EP-630 on both phns and 5130 sounds so much better...both phns come with earsets that is mediocre in audio quality... All other features are same...thou 5220 does has active standby and nokia maps Nokia already added flight mode to 5130..looks like they have decided to go big with 5130...they are looking to capture a lot of lower midrange music phn market share with set and more improvements will follow...

  • its very nice and beautiful and i'm using it from almost 1 year and it has'nt created any problem

  • U hav own 5220xm. 5220 is 100% betar than 5130xm. Price met quality. Huh

  • you shd looks the sound quality of 5800 and 5130 XMs

  • 5130 is best...yes i mean 5130 and not 5310

  • Superb superb and superb nokia introduced the supeeerb 5220.. love this set

  • is it good or wa i wanna no

  • dis phone s vry bad becos it s not working properly often it gets strucked

  • Most of the phones which come now a days have the visibility issues under direct sunlight it has got something to do with the display..... Guess we have to live with it.. However i do find a difference under direct sunlight if the phone has 16M color display..

  • @Halal Can you please explain ur exact issue?

  • @Suri With all due to respect to you I tend to disagree with ur points. For sound quality try playing around with ur equalizer.Camera quality is not as bad as u have mentioned. If ur looking for perfect snaps.. pick up a Digi cam, if u want the best sound pick urself a Bose. For what we spend i guess the phone is decent enough.

  • which software type is ti, i mean symbian s60 3rd edition or what?????

  • My handset some time not work properly. Profile & setting tones function are not working properly. please send feedback me for this reason and occurance. Halal Khan

  • i request u all who is thinking of buying ths mobile plz do not buy i just bought it yesterday on 5th may 2009 Ths is worst mobile becoz the sound is not good as we increase the vol its treble is incresed n thr is no bass n while the camera clearity in video mode is really worst it is not as good as even vga camera it is just waste of money n loud speaker is really worst

  • This Phone Rocks.

  • How do u know???...,,!!

  • I agree with u i think 5130 better than 5220 even better than 5310 5130 the best nokia sound

  • those who dont like it...just sell it off...those who had one like mine and enjoy it..good for u..it's a great phone...the price is suitable for it services ...it's a beautiful looking phone...my battery last me 2 days without playing music and last the whole day with music playing most of the time...seriously..i would rather sold my sony just to get this...

  • is the phone speaker louder than 6233? thanks in advance
