Unflappable flap design of Samsung E530 makes a statement with purpose. The well galvanised convex surface of this phone imprints an impression which one may find pleasant in its simplest form. May be Samsung E530 is a little short of a masterpiece of design and leaves a lot to be included on technical front, on a broader perspective of the basic E530 naming convention, Samsung E530 defies all expectations for better results.



Let us take a look on what all has been incorporated in Samsung E530 with the realisation that it was meant to be a basic handset. This shall help us assess Samsung E530 on a more realistic basis. This is an extremely lightweight mobile phone stressing primarily on looks and carrying on the good work in specifications as well. One may get the impression that Samsung E530 has that feminine appeal, but this is not a mistake rather an intentional move. The 256K colours display with 176 x 220 pixels resolution serves the feel good factor impeccably.

Memory expansion slot is not available in Samsung E530 which does not come as a surprise but the 89 MB internal memory testifies the amount of good work put in to make it a desired mobile phone in its category. The MP3/AAC/MPEG4 player adds some fun to what comes out as an irresistible device for those who are given to minutiae in designing. The 1 megapixels camera with video and flash is certainly an upgrade from what is expected out of the basic handsets but yes, with as many quality features one should refrain from calling Samsung E530 a basic mobile phone.

Data transfer/connectivity does not enjoy the privilege of too many options but inclusion of Bluetooth again corroborates the fact that the manufactures have done their homework to the right effect. GPRS, USB and WAP 2.0/xHTML browser are among other inclusions on this front.  is the perfect example of willing to do well in limited sources. One can not help but utter-Well done!
