 If you're looking for a good music phone on T-Mobile, check out the Nokia 5310 Xpress Music phone, which was slim and responsive with great dedicated music keys, instead of the Motorola ROKR E8, which has no keys at all. There wasn't much to like about this phone. The menus were a jumbled mess; the music player was hurt by the strange scroll wheel design and slow hardware; and, to be frank, the touch-panel-that-feels-like-buttons kind of creeped us out. This is a gimmicky phone, and though we have nothing but compliments for the great call quality and loads of onboard storage, the overall experience isn't worth putting up with. Plus, the phone will retail at launch for $200, the price of an iPhone, when better music phones can be had on T-Mobile for much less. Release: July 2008. Price: $200.
Pros: Unique design for true button-haters. Great call quality. Good battery life. Lots of onboard memory.
Cons: Touch instead of buttons doesn't make this phone better. Poor menu design. Strange scroll 'crescent.' Unresponsive controls hamper music experience.
