Nokia 5730 Red 3G 3.15 MP Carl Zeiss Optics QWERTY Keyboard, New, GSM unlocked
New Nokia 5730 XpressMusic units in red, GSM unlocked, with the side-slide QWERTY keyboard, 3G radio, Wi-Fi, GPS, and the 3.15 MP Carl Zeiss camera. Exporters to markets with live UMTS service take it as a sealed messaging smartphone with a brand name, and collector shops value the red 5730 as one of the few QWERTY XpressMusic models.
The Nokia 5730 XpressMusic is a 2009 Symbian S60 3.2 side-slider: a 2.4-inch QVGA screen over a four-row QWERTY keyboard, quad-band GSM with tri-band 3G and HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS, a 369 MHz ARM11 processor, a 3.2 MP autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss optics and a dedicated shutter key, a 3.5 mm jack, N-Gage gaming, and a microSD slot that shipped with an 8 GB card. It is effectively the Nokia 5630 with a keyboard and larger screen. TG Wireless supplies new units in red, GSM unlocked, to exporters for UMTS markets, collectors, and prop departments.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The Nokia 5730 XpressMusic is a GSM/UMTS phone with 3G data and no LTE or VoLTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile ended 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it no longer registers on a US network. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Buyers move it to export markets where GSM or UMTS is still live, to collectors and prop houses, to parts dealers, and to Wi-Fi-only use where supported. Wi-Fi remains usable regardless of cellular status.
Resale fit
- Export to markets where GSM or UMTS service is still live and a Symbian-era phone sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working Nokia handsets from the late 2000s and early 2010s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct phones.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
