    I bought this phone a day a go. the phone is very stylish and very comfortable to use.
    What do you think guys did a make the right decision in picking SE K530 rather than Nokia N70?

      You know this phone is really good.I didn`t have,but I would like to have that phone.Its cheap and with many modifications.In Bulgaria where I live there is maybe 150Euro`s but not really so much.You know this phone may be the "Leader" one.I like the phone cause its have the look of a Teenager.

        I'm from the philippines, I like the design of this phone, and some features, but maybe u do some improvment, like adding flash, Hsdpa, larger screen, and TV-OUT bcoz it is now important to have slide show on the bigger screen like TV. thank you.

          I've had my k530i for only a month, but I love it to bits! It's not as expensive as other phones, but it works really well! I have mine in Warm Silver.

          WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THE K530i:
          - It's a very stylish phone.
          - It's slim, so I can tuck it inside my pocket...and it won't bulge.
          - It's very durable. I must've dropped my phone a million times already (seriously!)...and it's still working on tiptop condition. :) Perfect for people who keeps on dropping their phones. Like me!
          - The battery life. I can use it for two days straight without charging (using the camera and all).
          - Memory is expandable up to 2GB.
          - You can choose the size of pictures you take (VGA, 1MP, 2MP)
          - It's a 3G phone...and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. :)
          - It looks nice enough to be used by women and professional to be held by men.
          - It has an FM radio.
          - You can edit photos, videos, and music.
          - You can record sounds and videos for longer duration (compared to other phones).
          - The picture quality is okay (even if on VGA setting) if lighting condition is good. Even more so if you turn the settings on 2MP. :)

          WHAT I HATE ABOUT THE K530i:
          - Without a proper flash, photos can look grainy in low lights even with the night mode on.
          - The battery cover squeaks when texting.
          - SIM card is kind of hard to place and remove.
          - The screen is not scratch-proof.
          - Buttons are placed too close to each other.
          - Cannot use the secondary camera for taking pictures (only for video calling).
          - Screen turns completely blank when idle (you have to press the volume keys to view the time)
          - You first have to install the SE PC Suite to be able to connect your phone to the computer (unlike my previous phone, Motorola v3i).
          - You cannot create folders to sort messages.
          - It can take so long for it to charge completely.

                  Chals - Oh I see thanks! I actually asked the shop and they said there is no silent button. Tsk tsk. Sorry for the silent button issue

                    >> is this right? No "silent" button when rings?
                    yeah when it rings u are not able to silent it, u can only answer it or end its call

                    Another main problem for me is that, in the address book, If i wanted the name john, I'd type the letter J followed by the letter O, but it doesn't move after the letter J, you'd have to scroll down all the way to your name John from the first name of the letter J.

                    this is annoying, is it just my phone ??
