You know this is the worst mobile I have ever got, it's so bad don't ever try it I have switched it with Nokia 6120 it is much better.
Reviewer: Carlos - London, UK
Date: 29th Mar 2008
I have had this phone & I do think the camera is good but the tiny speaker is not. I have had three replacements since December. The design is nice but not perfect as it is very slippery, when the phone falls the screen scratches. To be honest I would not recommend this phone.
Reviewer: Ismail Ezzalzouli - Marrakech, Morocco

The picture quality on my phone is great, & the sound.
Reviewer: Aloywee - Hougang, Singapore

The Nokia 5610 phone is prefect & wonderful if it got Symbian OS & Wi-Fi is more prefect hope Nokia can upgrade the phone! Other then that the sound is loud, crystal clear, camera 3.2 with Auto focus is good & lastly it support up to 4GB micro SD card.
Reviewer: Liam - Dumfries, UK

One of the best phones I have ever seen.
Reviewer: Victoria - Birmingham, UK
Date: 16th Feb 2008
What a rubbish phone. Never expected such a downgrade from Nokia!
Camera is of a very poor quality, my old Sony Ericsson 2mega pixels is much better, screen is blurry the same 16M colours on Nokia 6300 is much better! You cannot record video clip of more than 20 seconds & yes the speakers are loud & clear but it doesn't help if you cannot put your phone on SILENT!
Even if you follow the guide, put it on silent it will still ring! So you have to mess about & go to settings & change the whole thing to beep once setting. What a disappointment! Don't buy this phone if you need more than just a music player!
Reviewer: Joe - London, UK
Date: 14th Feb 2008
This is the best music phone from Nokia it is better than the 5700 that has too much twisting. Its camera is fabulous it would me much better if it had something to protect it.
The horizontal thing is so cool & is better than most walkmans also the screen colour is good. The headphones would be better if they were 3.5mm & it's speakers are loud.
Reviewer: Gunner - London, UK
Date: 14th Feb 2008
Can someone please tell me where they brought this phone from? Which phone shop? Which one has the best deal? Thanks.
Reviewer: Bobzilla - UK
Date: 9th Feb 2008
This phone is great! If you are looking for a great phone for under £200 this is the one to get! After comparing it with Samsungs & Sony Ericsson's in this price range I can safely say this is by far the best.
Ignore the comments about the bad camera it is extremely good & slightly better than the W810i, I compared pictures taken of the same object in the same conditions & compared them on a high res comp screen.
The sound is good, much better than the average phone speaker, but the internal memory isn't great, however it does come with a 1GB card as standard :).
Reviewer: Jammin - London, UK
Date: 6th Feb 2008
Yes this phone is wonderful, if you have a spare £180 you should definitely get one of these. The sound is loud the videos are clear the cameras a bad boy & if your like me & got a 4gig you can have plenty of tracks & stuff on it.
So BUY the phone!
Reviewer: Folletti - Sheffield, UK
Date: 2nd Feb 2008
After giving this phone a poor review (further down) I decided to go back & give the poor blighter a second chance.
unfortunately I now hate this phone more than I did the first time I reviewed it. Yes the music player is loud but I cannot get over the phone deciding how's best to store your music.
But alas, the volume of the music is now also a downside. Because the built in speaker distributes sound at a fairly decent volume it is now easier for youngster to play their music loud & it annoy me quicker by constantly playing vile RnB stuff on the bus.
I have decided rubbish & pants are the best two words from my entire lexicon to sum up this phone.
Fortunately for me I am loaded so I am off now to pay cold hard cash for a Sony W960i, with my Nokia 5610 either going in the river en route to the phone shop or I am just going to give it to the first homeless person I see.
Reviewer: Chalita - Berks, UK

Hi everyone I got this phone 10 days ago, it is fantastic two little things.
- It would be better with a built in aerial for the radio the lead is a bit long with the aerial lead connected.
- Nokia who stocks the blue one none of the mobile company's do they all only stock the red one for some reason why is this.
Other than that the 6510 is faultless beats Sony 5 Star.
Reviewer: Andrew - Middlesbrough, UK
Date: 28th Jan 2008
I brought this phone today on O2 it is the best phone out I had the Sony k800i I did not like the sound of the MP3 player the 5610 has great sound.
Reviewer: Arvind - Chennai, India
Date: 25th Jan 2008
Hi all, I got this mobile ten days ago & N-Series mobiles. I was not convinced. I was very eager to listen to the crystal clear sound of this mobile phone.
Here came a thunder to my head. When I charged the phone & tried to start. Bam! Nothing like this happened, but it refused to start. Don't think it requires a software upgrade.
But to its Pros, a lot to say.
- Style.
- Super clarity Camera with Flash.
- Crystal Clear Sound. (Love it baby).
- Overall Good one.
People before buying this mobile do check if it has the latest firmware updates in it. Or we need to do this & in each firmware update there is a problem waiting for you.

Buttons take a little getting used to but everything else is PERFECT, NO TROUBLE all that nonsense with bad camera is not true. Nice phone.
Reviewer: Folletti - Sheffield, UK
Date: 18th Jan 2008
This phone is just plain nasty. Once again Nokia have decided that they know best & have made sure the 5610 follows in the footsteps of the N95 & uses meta tag info for any MP3's you upload to the phone, so any compilation folders of all your favourite tunes you just happen to have compiled get split into individual albums for each artist in your own compilation, with the same being done with artists.
I uploaded one folder of music containing 45 rock tracks by various artists, went to the music player, selected albums & was greeted by 27 album folders (27 artists in my one compilation).
You can access your music in the original folders that you upload your music in by going Gallery, Memory Card, whatever you call your music folder but that's by the by. Nokia should stick to plain old phones & leave the music side of the biz to Sony Ericsson, who I am promptly returning to.
Any piece of music your stick on the phone can be applied to various different things, ringtone, message alert tone, etc, except adding something directly to a contact. For this you have to actually edit your chosen contact & add their own ringtone that way, or as I like to call it, the long & annoying way.
No handy little section to remove to get to the memory card, sim battery here, oh no. The whole back is coming off, & unless you have super strong pointy finger nails I'd keep a Bic biro lid handy as its pointy enough to pry the back off & soft enough not to damage anything.
Admittedly the phone does look good & is immensely loud through a decent (not the Nokia ones supplied) set of ear buds (skull candy smoking buds are fantastic) & I suspect this phone will appeal to the folks who post on these review boards who have trouble spelling properly & use words like Innit & Ting but if your used to Sony Ericsson's then stick to your guns & leave this one well alone.
& the Nokia PC Suite software totally strangled my PC, to the extent it took over 2 minutes to get onto Google.

Got this phone 3 weeks ago & so far it rocks. The music's good & clear plus the videos are comparable to a dedicated video player. The camera's OK though it's not all that. Only special thing about it is the flash which really works. The picture quality on the camera is not as good as that on some 2 megapixel phones I've tested. Hope they don't brand it because it'll get really slow. Not frozen, though when viewing pics it moves rather slowly from one pic to the next. Don't know if this is true but I read that clearing the battery life on first use without charging prevents freezing & crashing.
Nice weight & feels strong though the plastic on it makes it makes it feel fragile (contributing to the 90 on design). The screen really attracts fingerprints though it's nothing that can scare you away from the phone. It also keeps sliding up in my pocket & somehow playing the crystal clear videos (hence the 95 on usability). Apart from that it's a great phone considering it's my first upgrade since the 3200 which was rather a toy with only 1 mb of memory.
Overall great phone & would recommend it to anyone who loves music & an easy 2 use phone.
Reviewer: Irving - Hong Kong, China
Date: 6th Jan 2008
I got this phone for Xmas. Here is what I think.
Pros
- Music Slider key easy to access music anytime.
- Pictures from camera are very clear & flash is good.
- 4GB max of MicroSD memory.
- Music quality along with the stereo widening on.
- Equaliser easy & good to use.
- screen resolution is very good & clear.
- Good speakers.
Cons
- Very little internal memory.
- Camera speed is slow (Capturing takes at least 2 seconds).
Overall I quite like this phone :). But, I think the price of this phone is a bit expensive.

This is the best music phone I have ever seen its unique design & stylish look & the great sound with video quality please buy this phone if you are a true music lover.

The best phone I have ever had. Music & Camera quality are superb, features are excellent & the battery life is brilliant.
Reviewer: Nanda Kishore - Hyderabad, India
Date: 28th Dec 2007
Hi. This phone's features are very good but the only problem is the camera lens is out of the backside when the back cover is opened. So it is very easy to get damaged. This is the only problem, there is no Wi-Fi & there are no more problems. Everything is excellent & the sound quality is excellent.
Reviewer: Jerry S - Reunion
Date: 25th Dec 2007
The good, great design with some interesting features, like the new slide button for multiple menus & MP3! The material is great, with very good button to click, smooth & enjoyable to touch! A very nice 3MP camera & all the other functions of the Nokia.
The bad, the colour options is not for everyone & the lack of Wi-Fi.
Conclusion, it's a 'very' well made phone, great for music, good for photos & an amazing design! But is no future proof!
Score 8.6.
Reviewer: Theo - High Wycombe, UK

Great, looks good. Great for storing music. All rounder phone. Very fashionable.
