Nokia unveils three new music phones

Nokia today introduced three new music phones: the Nokia 5730 XpressMusic, Nokia 5330 XpressMusic and Nokia 5030 in a bid to expand its music range to different price points.

Nokia also said that it has sold 425 million phones with built-in digital music players and over 700 million units with an FM radio.

The Nokia 5730 XpressMusic is Nokia's first music phone to come with a full QWERTY keyboard which should be a delight to music lovers who are also into quick and furious messaging.

The phone also has dedicated gaming keys, making it "a true N-Gage gadget".

The Nokia 5730 XpressMusic will roll out in the third quarter of 2009 and will have a price of about 280 Euros (before subsidies and taxes).

The Nokia 5330 XpressMusic meanwhile is aimed at music lovers who wish to always keep tabs of their social networks. It has XpressMusic touch keys on the side for quick access to music, a standard 3.5mm audio jack, and an extended battery offering over 26 hours of playback time.

Nokia said that this model "provides access to sites that specialize in online sharing, including Ovi, Facebook, and MySpace".

It will also roll out in the third quarter of the year and will sell for about 160 Euros.

Finally, there is the Nokia 5030, Nokia's first phone to come equipped with an internal FM radio antenna so headset or external speakers are no longer required to play your favorite FM stations.

Targeting "emerging markets", Nokia said that the Nokia 5030 may be used as a portable radio, thanks to its long battery life (up to a day of listening time and 10 hours of talk time), and a powerful loudspeaker. It will be available in graphite and red models.

It will be available in the second quarter of 2009. The price? A smashing 40 Euros!
