Among the four phones above, its obvious that Nokia 5130 is value for money as its the cheapest ‘express music’ series phone that any music lover would definitely love to have. Apart from that, if budget is not a constraint and, if you are looking for a better camera phone, then Nokia 6303 classic is a good option too, as it has a 3.2 megapixel camera with LED flash and also supports 8x digital zoom. But another thing you need to know before choosing Nokia 6303 classic is, unlike other 3 phones above, this phone is not equipped with a 3.5 mm audio jack that would be really irritating for people who love to listen music using earphones.

One of my friends was looking for something like this, sent him the link.
That’s a great review. But i guess it would be much better if you compare with other brand models
@Narendra
Thanks for the suggestion. Will definitely keep about it in mind in any of my future reviews.
Prolly u need to make a small correction to ur review, 2700, 5310 and *6303* have 3.5mm jack while 7210 has 2.5 mm jack….
@Anil
Nope, Nokia 6303 doesn’t comes with a 3.5 mm audio jack!
Buddy, my sis is having 6303 classic and I just bought her this coz its having 3.5 mm jack since she needed a phone which can solve the purpose of an ipod…
And in terms of looks I would have given 4.5 to 6303c instead of 5130…..
real good comparison.. thnx a lot for making it precise..
Nice post! “Up” For the author!!
Thanks for the ‘up’ Bhanu!
I want to buy Nokia2700c wat is ure opinion,reply me
@saravana
Guess there are few more handsets launched at that range..
Great comparision i liked it a lot. U have not aded a feature that 5130 has tv output option. Is 2700 has egprs and is it a good phone to purchase.
Nokia 2700 is value for money and it is way better than nokia 5130 n supernova 7210
Thanks for pointing out, Vishal. Yes 2700 is good too, but personally I liked 5130.
@anish
All the 4 phones are almost same, depends upon personal choice
i think all the phones are too good,but my personal choice is 6303.
The Nokia 6303 actually DOES have a 3.5mm jack. In your video, the hole you were describing as the jack is actually where you stick the recharger. The bigger hole beside it is the 3.5mm jack. Also, you left out a very important feature from your comparison: battery life. For me, considering the better camera, substantially longer battery life and looks, I’d have the 6303 (actually will have in a week or so). Other than that, a good review!
which have highest speed of gprs?
@harish
As they are phones under same range, hence I think there won’t be much variations in speed among them.
which have highest speed of gprs nokia 5130 or nokia 6303?
actually approx my 20 friends are having these phones and my father,mother and brother and me having all these 4 phones at last i think 6303 is not up to the mark phone as its camera is not comparable to 3.2 mp image and 5130 has a problem of hanging while high storage and not good at internet surfing.7210 has low battery and doesnt support software applications.the best phone is nokia 2700c as it runs google earth fast internet.good concept of search things at low cost as well as support many applications with a inbuilt flash lite overall marvellous
can u suggest wether nokia 2700 or nova(4.4k) or 2730 is best to buy>>> an its added plus
I have a problem with my 7210 supernova….the mp3 player does not work,it says ‘unsuficient memory’ and also the camera does’nt work when i turn it on it says “camera in stand-by”.and finally,the applications from phone have gone,i don’t know how!the phone memory is now 4mb instead of 30!can u help me,please?
very appreciable working
