Nokia 5310 (2020) – Classic Music, Modern Touch – Available Now at Elvatech Kenya
In a world full of smartphones that demand attention, the Nokia 5310 comes in like a nostalgic whisper from the past—simple, focused, and built for what phones were meant to do: communicate, entertain, and last long.
Originally released in the mid-2000s, the Nokia 5310 was the king of music phones, loved for its dedicated media keys, stereo sound, and stylish design. Now reimagined in 2020 by HMD Global, this classic has been revived for the modern user—and it’s available at Elvatech Kenya.
Let’s dive into what makes the Nokia 5310 such a timeless favorite and why it’s a must-have in your pocket or handbag—whether as a secondary phone, a music companion, or a digital detox tool.
Why People Still Love the Nokia 5310
1. Dedicated to Music Lovers
The Nokia 5310 is not trying to be a smartphone. Instead, it excels as a dedicated music phone with:
-
Dedicated side media buttons for play/pause, next, and previous
-
Built-in MP3 player
-
Wireless FM radio
-
Dual front-facing stereo speakers
Whether you’re traveling, walking, or chilling at home, the 5310 keeps your favorite tunes close without draining your smartphone battery.
2. Battery Life That Lasts for Days
One of the biggest frustrations with modern phones is their short battery life. The Nokia 5310, however, is a beast when it comes to power efficiency.
With its 1200mAh battery, the 5310 delivers:

Up to 20 hours of talk time

Over 22 days of standby time
