If you people want to play games, buy Gameboy advance or ps2 (portable) if you wnt to take pictures, buy camera, not phone, but about volume, this is a major pro.... anyway, I am thinking of buying this phone, there is no much of choice, in Lt no Sagems, z530 is one of the best solutions, am I right?

    Hi all, some say that this model supports EDGE... Is there any specific way to find out if this model supports EDGE? Thanks in advance.

      The main display is cheap, and it can't be helped. Pics from the camera are a bit too saturated, and the speakers are very clear but are a bit too quiet. And playing games with the navigation donut is a bit quirky. Everything else is perfect, sometimes beats older high-end phones such as the K700.

      The keypad looks awful at first glance, but it's surprisingly comfortable. Even the tiny shortcut key is responsive.

      I got mine because of its style, its low cost and its Bluetooth support, but MemStick support is welcome too. As i said, the display is cheap, but if you can live with that then this is a great phone.

        I have recently bought a Z530. Overall it is superb. However, I cannot really hear the voices speaking. Is this a common failure; smt wrong particularly with this phoe; with my ears, or is there a way to turn on the volume?

          hi fibru,

          To me,UBC screen has better display when it's under the sun but do not expect a superb quality since it's only a 65k screener. Yet for its cam compare with z520,both were very near the same quality i'm afraid.

          Juz that i noticed some of z530's ringtone is somehow lower volume compare to my previous K300i which i'm alittle bit upset with it. Anyway, try it out b4 u purchase it since u've got urself a z520, i bet u can have a clearer comparison thru ur preferences thr :)

          *another tips* nvr follow reviews too much,always test/try and ask back ourself whether it suit our preferences b4 purchase so tat u wont regret in the end ;) good luck

              i had a plan to bought z530,but there`s one thing that make me little bit confuse...
              About the view finder quality if we compare it with z520,is it better or worse??cz i`ve already use z520 n in my opinion it has a good picture view finder quality too,n right now im curious with z530 cz it offer more feature in data transfer...if we logically think,it maybe z530 have a better quality on its UBC screen better than TFT,but in this forum i found that seems alot people judge that this cell phone is not too good on its cam,is it because its screen????okey who`s already try it both and compare it?????please help me,thank you n sorry if my english not good...

                        it says on the description that it is a 640x480 camera. then it says "interported" into 1.3 MegaPixel. does anyone know what that means? if so, can you post an opinion regarding this?

                          Can somebody tell me whether it is possible to assign a different ringtone for each group, because i wasn't able to find this option. You can only assign ringtones to separate contacts.

                          Otherwise i like the phone very, very much!

                            to zaha,
                            yeap,it can browse n open internet but send/receiving email,this has to go and check the configuration/availability with yr local operator already.

                            to Jaga,
                            Nope,only another model W300 has FA Radio as u can read from its written reviews & specs clearly.

                            hope my replies help! cheers!

                                      I'm buying a new phone and z530 is high on my list. I finaly decided to send my faitfull Moto v50 to retirement. I have question: Can mobile phone (this one in particular) be used as storing flash device? If you connect him via usb with computer, is it recognized as flash device?

                                        No, theres no flash light, and theres nothing wrong with your phone. The ring tone is really soft.
