Nokia 5300

Since battery technology and other electronic components have evolved, phone makers can build phones that are smaller, slimer and lighter than ever. With these phones, no need to use a belt clip or pouch, you can just drop them in your shirt's pocket and they become as invisible as a small chocolate bar.

Phones included in this slide show all weigh less than 100 grams or have small dimensions that make them practical to carry around.

The following slide show features the latest Small and Lightweight cell phones in chronological order, from the most recent to the oldest. Click "Next" or click the picture to move to the next cell phone. Each Small and Lightweight cell phone picture is accompanied with a snapshot analysis of the phone's strong and weak sides, along with a link to more details.
