      goaaale, 08 Jan 2009I have both Sony Ericsson K550i & K530i. Both sell at aroun... moreAnd: camera has suprisingly many features and in good exposure this little thing sometimes delivers very good pictures. I have a Canon IXUS 40 (4mpix) and when the battery runs out (which it usually does) Im lucky to have my k550 digital camera with me to stand in, and not bad to have both flash and video feature to use. I bought a 1 gb M2 card right in the beginning and have never run out of space since. I have no interests in games so that feature in the k550 is hardly known to me. I had Sony Ericsson k750 and k550 was a worthy successor.

                  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.

                                tanya, 05 Jan 2009so wat do u mean...... does thid has file manager bcoz us... moreI dont know wats ur problem with the "File Manager". may be i guess u dnt like the name? Nokia 5310 is not in the same price group, bit expensive. in nokia u get a dedicated 3.5 mm audio jack for better music for which is of course their flagship xpressmusic edition. Nokia display is 16million color(TFT) display is better than se, but se compensate it with much longer standby time(less power consumption for display).
                                currently iam using a k550i.n believe me the music quality i get with handfree is far better than i expected in a cybershot phone.
                                for a 2mp camera k550i better than nokia 5310. but if you truely want best pictures u should go atleast for a 3.15 mp phone(k800,k810,k770..)
                                but for me k550 is truely great value for money( now $150 in dubai)

                                      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.

                                      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.

                                      Every other performance aspects of both phones are identical.
