2010 has emerged as a great year for new mobile phone models, although this is more of the same progression from previous years, which has followed a great path from oversized units with limited functionality to streamlined new models that offer almost infinite possibilities. Nowadays mobile phone manufacturers are falling all over themselves trying their best to outdo one another in offering sleek and sophisticated new phone models that pack in a lot of features and do it well.

Further expansion can be done using the usually-included 2GB memory card, or anything up to 16GB worth of extra microSD card memory.
Seemingly significantly more powerful than its closest physical match, the 6300, the C5 has a very fast and colorful interface that has intuitively placed shortcuts at the bottom of the main screen, which is useful for accessing the multitude of apps that the phone packs in. This includes a lot of entertainment features, such as stereo FM and a powerful little media player that supports MP3, Wav, eAAc+, WMV, MP4, H.264 and H.263.
