Pros Connectivity. Music quality. Fast processing.
Cons The screen can freeze occassionally, not often.

The Nokia 5530 Xpress Music, as you can tell by the name, is recommended to be used as a music phone, however with a 2.9 inch screen and a very high resolution touch screen I believe this mobile phone to be just as good as an iPhone. Its great for social networking too! With a customisable... Read full review »

One of the main improvements is the removal of the front button, and the replacement of the touch sensitive line. There are... Read full review »
