Nokia 5500 Sport

Battery
The specs rate the BL-5B battery between 2 to 4 hours and between 6 days to 12 days of stand by. I didn’t talk too much, but even then the phone did last for quite a long time (over 3 days at least). Even on the last bar, I still managed two days. Good battery life in this phone.

Conclusion
This phone can’t be directly compared to any other. The only other sport-focussed phone (other than the Nokia predecessors to this model) in the market is the Sony Ericsson W710i, but this is the only phone with a built-in pedometer that enables a different level of statistics tracking. And, of course, it plays music, has FM and is dust and splash resistant. Besides, this is also cheaper than the W710i (which is Rs. 14,500). For a fitness freak, this is the phone to buy.
