80%8out of 10

simply said, this phone is a great phone..
qwerty keyboard that is comfortable to use, dedicated gaming and music buttons, built in WiFi, GPS ++
but if u are aiming for a phone with awesome camera, then this phone is definitey not suitable for you..
the camera quality is pretty bad..and this applies to the sound quality too..

a great phone for it's price..

Pros

- QWERTY keyboard is pretty easy to use
- dedicated gaming and music buttons are useful
- 'say and play' feature is a great feature

Cons

- 2.4 inches screen feels quite small when accessing WiFi
- camera qulity sucks
- sound is quite loud but not clear

93.3%9.3out of 10

this phone not bad for at all..  its lower spec than 5800 but defintely better thn 5530..

here is my exp..

- The keyboard is amazing.. you can type really fast with it plus its comfortable..
- GPS system works fine..
- The new feature "say and play" really really fun..
- The sound quite good but too soft if you set loudspeaker but if you use earphone, the sound really really good..
- the processor only 369 Mhz.. and that kinda slow if you filled up about half memory and play n-gage
- The camera isnt that good.. i expect more than this..
- Dedicated n-gage key make playing funner..
- The video playback almost @30fps.. wow..
- The battery lasts too short..
- Wi-fi works fine..
- you get 1 premium n-gage game at the box

this phone really good for the one who loves slide and like to have music to in 1 handy phone.. for the price seems unreasonable for QWERTY more expensive than 5800 which touchscreen.. but this isnt bad too..

Pros

- The feature "say and play"
- Dedicated n-gage key
- Great keyboard
- Video playback @30fps
- Wi-fi
- The design is great
- Features are great and useful

Cons

- The camera isnt that good plus only with 1 LED not dual LED
- The battery only 1000mAh
- Loudspeakers sounds quiet and soft
- 369 Mhz processor
- Quite expensive than touchscreen

4. NOKIA 5730--QWERTY & MUSIC & GAMING

23 Aug 2009 by TJ

73.3%7.3out of 10

Just got the 5730 yesterday, had the N95 8GB before it.
UPTill now it's really a great phone:

MY EXPERIENCE WITH IT IS---

- The keyboard is great and very easy to use, I got really used to it by typing blindly for like 10 minutes
- The screen wasn't a disappointment, ofcourse annoying after my 2.8" screen but the change wasn't as bad   as I expected, still good.
- Its GPS connects in a few seconds,a real improvement compared to my N95
- It charges via USB
- The camera isn't that good, particularly in low light condition as only single led flash
- When using the keyboard for browsing or so you still need to scroll with the controller beside the screen,        which is kinda annoying.
- The positioning for the menu and C keys is weird that I press them accidentaly alot.
- It's sound quite good not as good as Nokia 5800XM,although sound through earphone is                   minblowing
- The say and play feature is fun but I don't think it's that efficient.
- Dedicated buttons for music & ngage 

- U get the code to activate 1 ngage game

Anyway if you need a good phone with a keyboard without a very high price i really recommend this one, it's cheaper than the E75 with the very same specs, except if you need a real business phone. So get it if you're thinking about it for it's probably the best qwerty keyboard phone that money can buy at the moment
