This is a very cute phone, it stores a camera and is going now for quite cheap. Its very small and compact which is very good for me as we arent allowed mobiles at school and i hide this phone in my pocket. Very easy to navigate around, the menu is creative and the shortcuts on the keypad make it easier to get to your favourite places (messages, camera, phonebook and sound). The only cons are that there is no sound in the video recorder, it only holds 50 photos and about 60 messages. Ringtones are all rubbish, no music player or bluetooth. Otherwise, this phone is very good I give it an 8/10.

right ive read all the other comments about this phone, and ive had probably bout the same thing, i aint gonna start boring u with the same thing but its really annoying coz i really need to send picture messages to my m8s and it says sending failed and the network signal is fine. also the camera keeps takin pictures without me taking them, like if its in my pocket it will take a picture automatically and it comes up as spy picture...weird, also its really scary coz it turns on and off, and te battery only last about 1 day if i charge it for 3days or so:( thats all it gotta say, but dnt waste ur money on the phone, its scary!

this phone is basically a rebadged Samsung phone - as such it's about a 5 year old design. The memory capacity is poor, the phone is slow to use and the camera is one of the most unusable ones i've seen on any phone. Worst of all my daughter has gone through three of them due to the phone's poor build quality - the camera stops working, then the sim holder fails and the phone becomes unusable.
For the price that this phone costs on a pay-as-you-go scheme, you can get a properly made phone like the Samsung D600 which is infinitely better.

would advise anyone that wants to buy this phone... DONT! i've had it for about a year now and on the first day i loved it but then i realised all its faults. you can only store up to 50 photos, the phone sometimes goes all fuzzy when you take more than 4 or 5 pictures at a time. When you recieve texts sometimes the phone automatically deletes them and sometimes the phone just switches off. If you are reading your messages back to yourself you can read about 4 or 5 and the phone turns off. so yeh, im not a great fan. I'm buying a new phone (the samsung d600) so can't wait to get rid of my VK.

I don't have much of a comment about this phone except to say that I was happy with it at first but then after only having it for a month and a half it broke and now I can't get ahold of anyone to fix or replace it. Does anyone out there have a customer service number for the United States that a person can call to find out how to get your phone repaired? I tried emailing the company at their web site but after three weeks I have not heard from them yet.

I was delighted when I first got the Vk530 model. It looks cool, cute, trendy but I have to admit I am very disappointed with it.
It is a very slow phone with little memory.
It often makes a strange crackle noise when i am speaking on it.
I do not mean to moan but we work hard for our cash and should receive a descent phone in return for the money we pay.

i thought the phone was great when i first got it all small and pink! i loved it then after a few weeks when i read my messages it kept coming up with error and i couldnt read them so i had to turn it off and on all the time! it still does it today. Also the camera is blurry and the video has no sound. the most annoying thing is that it doesnt have bluetooth and u cant get any ringtones for it. I would say this phone would be ok for girl about 9. But i wouldnt recommand this phone to anyone
