Welcome to the Nokia X5 review information page. To be released in late 2010 this is the uses a design style, the land scape slider that manufacturers have been getting up to over the last 12 months.  It is supposedly related to the regular X5-00 but we think that it is probably a better comparison with the E71 and E72 series.  The X5-00 does have a number of decent features that you will probably like.  How much you like will depend on the price of course!  Until we can test one here are our impressions.

The X5-01 looks like a decent mid range phone based on construction and feature set.  However being an X series music and multi-media phone you can expect the full array of media players and recorders. Since it comes with a keyboard you will be able to email and text to your hearts content without too much complaint too!

Other functionality includes a decent web browser and Wi-Fi – when you 3G data runs low or too slow.  There is also support for internet radio and recording.  The only issue that needs to be addressed is the relatively small display screen.  And finally runs Flash lite 3 so all our wide screen power savers will work on them.

Overall another decent mobile phone from Nokia with a interesting design variation.  If you are after something different then this may be the model you are looking for.

Welcome to the Nokia c1-02 review and information. Released in mid-2010 the C1-02 is another low end mobile phone from Nokia.  A GSM only phone it is directly related to the previosuly reviews C1-01.  It is basically the C1-01 with a redesigned body and missing the camera.

Since it is currently being released as we write this page we can’t say much about the phone apart from point out the best parts of its specifications. The C1-02 can access data but at GPRS or EGPRS speeds, bluetooth, and a FM radio which you can also record off.  So you can see it can’t do much and in this price range you should not expect it to either.  It is a talk and text phone with basic email capabilities. So if that is all you are after than maybe this is the phone for you.

Based on this and that we are very familiar with the S40 system this looks another decent but basic mobile phone.

Welcome to the Nokia C1-01 review and information page. Released in mid-2010 the C1-01 is another entry level mobile phone.  Strangely despite the C1 tag it does not have much in common with the previously reviewed C1-00.

We did not expect to many additional bits of functionality apart from the basics so you shouldn’t either.  However once again we where and so will you be surprised at that is included. Technically it is a GSM only phone but has the ability to access data though the rudimentary GPRS standard.  Other features include a VGA camera, bluetooth and even microSD card expansion.

Until we can test one for real we can’t really say much more.

So far the C1-01 is definitely going to be one of the best price GSM only phones with functionality that will keep quite a number of people happy for at least 12 months before wanting more.
