Nokia Review

Nokia 5500 Review – The Nokia 5500 Sport belong’s to Nokia’s Active Line of mobile phones. It’s wonderfully durable, with plenty of rubber and steel for protection. The Nokia 5500 also resists water and liquid damage with a highly compacted design. Considering the great durability, the overall weight for the 5500 is suprisingly low at 103 grams.

The Nokia 5500 clearly caters to the sport crowd by including sports tracking capabilities like a stopwatch, calories burned tracker, as well as a steps calculator.

The display on the Nokia 5500 is ok at 208×208 pixels. The Nokia 5500 also supports Bluetooth 2.0, infrared, as well as USB connectivity. EDGE is also supported.

On the back of the phone you’ll find a 2 megapixel cam. The camera supports resolutions as high as 1600×1200 pixels – the phone also has video recording capabilities in 176×144 resolution. The Nokia 5500 has a great 64 MB of built in memory. If this isn’t enough, memory is easily expanded with a microSD card.

There’s an integrated music player in the Nokia 5500 that supports a wide variety of different music formats: AMR, MP3, AAC, eAAC, and WMA. We found the included HS-29 headphones to give pretty reasonable audio quality. The battery life on the 5500 is decent – it runs for up to ten hours when playing songs. Talk time is around 4 1/2 hours and standby is at a good 12 days.

Overall the Nokia 5500 is great for it’s sturdiness, but has a screen on the smaller side for a smartphone. The wireless Bluetooth connectivity along with the durability factor makes the Nokia 5500 phone ideal for athletes who don’t mind the small screen.
