Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
- All round I'd say this phone is very good at doing the basics of any phone but as a music phone it has some issues still.
- Sound quality is excellent when the earphones are replaced with standard issue ipod ones. The great thing is that this phone provides a standard headphone jack, allowing you to use virtually any headphones, something that many phones don't. Radio is very good.
- Album Art is a real problem if thats your thing. I have tagged mp3s that work perfectly in iTunes, WMP , iPods etc. However the chances of the artwork showing up on the 5310 are a bit hit and miss. Check Nokia forums for a further description of this issues.
- Dedicated music keys are really useful for quickly accessing music, however the ease of navigation in the "sort by artist" screen is really lacking. Basically if you want to drill down to an artist beginning with "M", you've got to manually click down through ALL artists from "A" to "L". You cannot even press the corresponding letter on your keypad to quickly skip to "M". This is majorly frustrating when you have a reasonably sized music library. I can hardly believe this oversight from Nokia!
