I've always been a fan of Nokia handsets.  They're generally built to high standards and feature attractive, logical menu systems, and solid features, even if they're a little less trendy than their competitors when it comes to style.  The new Nokia 5300 XpressMusic for T-Mobile brings a little bit of flair to the Finnish phone maker's sturdy style, combining a sporty color scheme with rounded edges, external media controls, and an easy-grip rubberized exterior.  The result is a handset that's both compact and thick, with a pleasant heft and snappy slider mechanism. 

Though it's not quite up to the standard set by Sony Ericsson's Walkman phones (or some of Nokia's own N-Series devices), the 5300's music player is elegant, intuitive, and turns out good sounding music to all but the most discerning of ears.  When you take the included 1GB memory card and benefits of Active Standby on the Series 40 interface into consideration, the 5300 really represents a sweet spot in T-Mobile's lineup.  It's a quality handset with excellent music player and PIM features at a price much lower than a smartphone.  If you're looking to combine your music player with your phone and like the 5300's "fun spaceship" look, it's definitely worth a look.  And a listen.
