We’re not great fans of Nokia devices. They have almost always let us down, and the Nokia 5230 Nuron isn’t the exception. We weren’t thrilled about the device when we first heard it, and it doesn’t look like our opinion is about to change anytime soon.

CNET writes, “The Nokia 5230 Nuron has free maps and voice-guide navigation via Ovi Maps, 3G, and excellent call quality, all at an affordable price. It’s also the first Nokia smartphone with a U.S. carrier to offer access to the Ovi Store.”

However, “The Nuron lacks Wi-Fi and a document viewer. Its user interface is clunky and confusing, and we wish it had a capacitive touch screen. No flash for the camera.”

In conclusion, “The Nokia 5230 Nuron for T-Mobile isn’t the most advanced or fastest smartphone on the market, but budget-conscious customers will find an incredible deal here.”
