Is this old Nokia 5130 XpressMusic from 2009 usable in 2024?

Показать описание

The Nokia 5130 Xpressmusic is one of the first phones I had the pleasure to play with. This cutie is now 15 years old in 2024, which is crazy. But despite its age, it's still somewhat usable as you'll see in this video.

OH i have that exact one. It has indian settings because i got it from my grandma who lives in india. I get offered stuff like cricket scores and changing the language to hindi. It's so nice to have as a novelty, especially seeing old videos and photos taken by my parents and grandparents when they were younger. It's gold and makes you feel so nostalgic.

I have that phone as a backup phone in red color back in 2016 until 2019. Man so nostalgic, unfortunately in Late 2019 it went to a bootloop with a message *Contact Service*, it was such a good phone. Typing this sadly on my LG V20 because i don't have that phone anymore.

I now have the LG V20 as a main phone and the LG G3 as my secondary phone this time, even my LG G3 feels good these days except it kinda gets hot while browsing the web but for offline games and listening to music my LG G3 is decent, as for my LG V20 it does very good these days even if it was from 8 years ago.

Aww man I have the blue version of that phone, being able to listen to music while texting is such a great feature back in the day. Back then I had a Nokia 3310 phone and a crappy Coby 128mb USB mp3 player, it's a hassle having to go back and forth, bring it out of my pocket. Not to mention the battery depletes easily forcing me to buy a new double A battery each time. I managed to buy a slightly used Xpress Music unit, and it was worth every penny being able to watch .3gp videos, listening to music, taking pictures and videos, etc. You could even browse java sites and download pictures, themes, etc I loved it very much. It also made my everyday school trip bearable being able to listen to music before going to school. Man I miss those nostalgic simpler times. Lastly you did a great work showcasing this nostalgic Nokia phone.

EDIT: I also remembered you can install a gameboy and gameboy color emulator on that Pokemon. If I remembered correctly I was able to finish Legend of Zelda and Pokemon Yellow as well as Silver. Maan I feel old remembering those fun times hahaha.

Really want this phone. Some time ago I had to use a not that bad, but slow phone (it was the Samsung j5 prime) and honestly when I got a new, modern phone I just felt incredibly overwhelmed. It just made me more aware of the role phones play on our lives.
2G is still easily available where I live, it would be a big jump but... honestly considering using it. It looks great.
Tho I'm a bit scared of buying it because the online ad for it is clearly refurbished and some people are saying it malfunctions.

That speaker hole pattern looks like the blotch on the screen!

I like your content!
Question, what kind of recording setup do you use? Do you record with a camera or a smartphone? the video quality is very good.
