                I have both Sony Ericsson K550i & K530i. Both sell at around Rs. 7500. If you do not need 3G i.e. fast internet data transfer which still a costly service in India, K550i beats K530i in every aspect, hands down. K550i have EDGE instead of 3G which provides slower data transfer via Internet than 3G, but then who cares.

                Advantages of K550i over K530i ->

                1) K550i has 77 Mb internal memory instead of 24Mb of K530i.

                2) Both the phones uses 2 Mpix CMOS camera module & that’s where the similarity ends. While K550i camera module has Autofocus, the K530i does without Autofocus. As you can guess Autofocus camera modules are costlier than the ones without it and thus produce superior pictures.

                3) K550i has active lens cover protecting the lens from dust & smudges where as K530i has no cover.

                4) K550i has 2 LED lights which can be used as camera flash or torch light where as K530i has no LED’s.

                5) K550i connectivity wise offers not only Bluetooth but also Infra-red port which is helpful to communicate with older mobile phones for data transfer where as K530i has only Bluetooth.

                6) K550i is a quad band phone where as K530i is tri band.

                7) K550i TFD display is brighter than TFT. A TFD display also consumes much less power than TFT, as low as now obsolete STN displays. Thus battery backup is better than K530i.

                Advantages of K530i over K550i ->

                1) Has 3G. Our country has no 3G and even if it is available within a year the cost to have 3G will be a lot.

                2) K530i has a VGA video call camera; K550i does not have one but think how many times you have used it if it was available in your phone? K550i autofocus camera is far superior to the no autofocus camera of K530i.

                3) K530i uses TFT display which is a much recent technology than K550i TFD. Amazingly, though K550i display is brighter.

                4) The K530i keypads are bigger than K550i, so typing SMS in K530i is a breeze.

                A let’s make one thing clear, both K550i & K530i uses the same user interface, the SE A100 platform so they have the same audio, FM, video modules.
                Every other performance aspects of both phones are identical.

                          guyz i will prove u that K530 is better than K550 check it out here
                          I have both Sony Ericsson K550i & K530i. Both sell at around Rs. 7500. If you need 3G i.e. fast internet data transfer which is going to serve India in march,2009. K530i beats K550i in every aspect, hands down. K530i have 3G instead of EDGE which provides slower data transfer via Internet than 3G.

                          1)K530i has TFT display which is has more clear pixel (ie No glaring from the side view) than K550's TFD
                          2) Both the phones uses 2 Mpix CMOS camera module & that’s where the similarity ends .

                          3) K530i has Video Call Camera ,where u can do direct Video Conversation with your friends ,no matter at which place they lives.(international) but K550 it is completly NIL

                          4) K530i has better sound clarity than K550 due to its W880 module embedded in it

                          5) K530i connectivity offers Bluetooth ,PAN,Human interference Device.

                          6)K530 offers GPS with HGE-100.
                          Every other performance aspects of both phones are identical.
                          7) K530,W880,K610,W660,Z610,W850 are the same identical modules including internal memorey ,Cam, etc But K530 is cheaper when compared with the given phone and also having latest user interference.
