Nokia 5530 XpressMusic

red57 — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 13:29:56 +0000

Today we’ll be looking into the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic, the second touch screen model of the Nokia’s music series. The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is the latest to be added to the Nokia mobile phone assortment, following in the footsteps of the 5800 XpressMusic with a slightly lower price tag than its predecessors.

Sporting the Symbian S60 OS 5th edition, the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic has not only the brain of a smart phone, but also a great touch screen mobile phone. It has a 2.9-inch display which you may find a little on the small side, considering it doesn’t fill the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic frame, it is a great device that well functions both as a reliable communicator and as an excellent music player.

And just like with the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, both the microSD and SIM card slots are on the left side of the phone. The volume rocker and the slider that locks and unlocks the phone screen and touch sensitive keys are on the opposite side, along with the camera shutter. The 3.5mm jack is on the bottom side, with the microUSB and charger ports on either side. Finally, the bottom left corner hides the plastic stylus that is not telescopic, but is long enough.

Unfortunately, there are downsides to a low budget mobile phone like the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic. The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic does not offer 3G connectivity, but is equipped with Wi-Fi. While not as high-end as the Nokia 5800, this device is equip with a 3.2MP camera with LED flash, 3.5 mm audio jack that´s mandatory for all music-oriented devices these days, and a touchscreen display offering resolution of 640×360.

And the color support remains the same with 16M colors and image quality in artificial light is decent. The display sensitivity has been seriously improved and the manufacturer has incorporated TFT resistive technology again. You still need to press firmly, but this feels much easier now and doesn’t require much pressure.

Assessment on Nokia 5530 XpressMusic:

- Cheaper than the 5800 XpressMusic
- Feature a 2.9-inch touch-screen, a 3.2-megapixel auto-focus camera, a 3.5mm headphone socket, a FM radio
- Connectivity options: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPRS/EDGE, WLAN, high speed MicroUSB connector
- 70MB of internal memory along with a 4GB microSD card
- A pop-up Media bar to quickly access music, photos, videos, Internet
- A built-in music player support for MP3, AAC and WMA
- Excellent audio quality
- Doesn’t charge via USB
- Not optimized for finger touch browsing

I believe that is what Nokia XpressMusic phones are all about. To deliver a phone with Music Player/Entertainment capabilities on it with an affordable price for all music lover.

New Nokia E75 And E72 Leaked Out

red57 — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 03:53:29 +0000

A demo video of the latest and greatest business messaging devices by Nokia leaked online revealing the yet unannounced Nokia E72 and Nokia E75. This is indeed a hot news! But the sad news is that while I’m writing this blog, the said leaked video’s had been pulled out from YouTube.
Although the YouTube video is most likely an attempt of viral marketing, the polished performance shows one device called the E72 and another dubbed the E75, a slider.
The E75 has a silde-out QWERTY keypad while maintaining some resemblance to the already existing E66 and the E72 has a full QWERTY keypad below the display. Everything about the video looks real as far as we can say and both the E75 and E72 seems like great devices. An accelerometer recognizes which orientation the phone’s being held in, suggesting that the phone’s also set-up for viewing pictures and videos in either orientation.
The E72’s a wider handset than the E72, but looks more like a business oriented talker similar to the existing E61i and E71. The E72 doesn’t sport a slide out keyboard.
According to a promotional video that’s been leaked online, we could say that apart from the QWERTY keypad, both the cell phones have WiFi, GPS, an accelerometer, and may be even HSDPA support, running as usual on Symbian OS.
It might not be a long time till Nokia announces these two new nokia handsets, but until then, we will be happy to bring you more information and updates via leaks and slip-ups that seem to happen much too often nowadays.
I’ve managed to find a couple of pictures and added in this post to show you what you’ve missed on the video leaked on YouTube.
