Full review

Now let me start by stating that really I am not girlie! Apparanlty I have a mans brain. It started off with a pair of girlie pyjamas, then a girlie Ford Ka Design and now a pink Samsung E530.

I got this phone on contract after my hubby got a new phone and I was jealous (Funny the car was the same). It is on O2, and I feel as thoguh I got a good deal from Dial a Phone. And so it arrived. It sat on charge for 12 hours. It was killing me. I just wanted to use it! But it was worth the wait. It looks beautiful. A great replacement for my Samsung A800, and that being a replacement for my Samsung A300.

It is a little deaper than the A800, but not too much. The colour is lavender pink. And comes with a gorgeous shocking pink suedette pouch and carry strap both with Samsung on.

The camera is 1 Megapixel, and gives great pictures for a mobile phone.

There are various categories etc. on this. Including a section so you can keep a check on your periods. This really is a girlie phone. The only thing is for a girlie phone it has a football game on it. I suppose there are alot of girls and women who like football. But the rabbit game is fun! The games are Java and are excellent quality.

The tunes are boring. Infact really dreadful. I need to by a dongle so I can get some tunes downloaded.

I prefer the predictive text on this to the A800. If you had made a mistake you had to go back and erase the whole word and start again. This you don't have to. More like the A300.

My only problem is when it is in your pocket it is not loud enough to be heard. But to me that is a problem with Samsungs. But the other things out way this.

Under the lifestyle, there is -
Fragrance Type, Biorhythm, Height/Weight ratio, Calories Counter, Pink Schedule and a Shopping list

There is video recording and a video player.

It has an MP3 player and 64 polyphonic tunes.

It is dual band and has a good talk time and stand by time of 5.5 hours and 200 hours respectively.

The one thing that stands out with this phone is that there is no huge ariel. It is an intergrated one. My last two Samsungs have had their replaced with a little stubby ones.

I good little phone. Lokks good and works well. Well done to Samsung, Yet Again!
