Nokia 5630 XpressMusic bows across Europe

by Chris Ziegler posted Jun 3rd 2009 @ 7:41PM

If you've been desperately seeking a phone that could best be described as the Nokia E52's misbehaving younger brother who can't hold a job and spends most of his time in his mom's basement blaring death metal, look no further than the 5630 XpressMusic. The phone's essentially an E52 clone that's had some of its uptight bits swapped out for funkier ones (just look at that wild keyboard, for instance), emphasizing the music capabilities but toning down some of the productivity goodies like advanced profile support and integrated Nokia Messaging. Interested parties in many European locales can now latch onto a unit of their own -- take Nokia Finland's online store here, for example, where it's selling for a totally reasonable €255 (about $360). No sign of an American release at this point.

Nokia's 5630 XpressMusic hits the FCC

Been hankering for a low-end Nokia XpressMusic device in a familiar and unthreatening form factor? Then you might want to check in with the 5630, a candybar the company just shuttled off to the FCC for review (and dissection, if these pictures are any indication). In case you forgot, the device will sport a 3.2 megapixel camera with built-in flash, GPS, S60 3rd Edition (a personal fave of Engadget Mobile), and the "active toolbar" which we've seen more recently on the Tube... er, 5800 XpressMusic. The phone also supports N-gage games, and though we've been led to understand the device rocks an HSDPA / HSUPA radio, the manual up on the FCC's site only mentions GPRS and EDGE connectivity. For now we'll just assume that some kind of crazy joke (or typical US neutering of Nokia handsets). Check a pic of the gutted device after the break, and hit the read link for the full Commission rundown.

Nokia 5630 XpressMusic gets demoed on video

We've already gotten the official rundown on Nokia's slim new 5630 XpressMusic handset, but nothing completes a cellphone launch like a video of the phone being flipped around atop a makeshift backdrop, and Nokia's Conversations blog has thankfully come through in this case. As you can glimpse above, this one includes a dual-LED flash to complement the 3.2 megapixel camera, and the rest of the specs are certainly none too shabby for an S60 candybar, including HSDPA and HSUPA connectivity, an included 4GB microSD card, stereo Bluetooth and, last but not least, a 3.5mm headphone jack. Head on past the break for the video, or hit up the read link below to check out a higher quality version.

Nokia's 5630 XpressMusic is 12-mm slim, HSUPA fast, and S60 powerful

Like Symbian candybars? Then try this surprising little number, the 5630 XpressMusic. Nokia's 5800-sib is an N-Gage ready, 12-mm slimster with a 4GB microSD card dropped in the box along side a standard 3.5-mm headphone jack to rock whatever buds, plugs, or cans you have an itch for. It's also packing a 3.2 megapixel, "4x zoom" camera with dual-LED flash and HSDPA/HSUPA data to move your pics and videos up to your favorite photo sharing site on a rocket. Dedicated audio keys and Nokia's "say and play" feature makes the 5630 a media all-rounder. Expected in Q2 for around €200 pre-tax, pre-subsidy.
