I already bought this product for since last week. I cannot tell everything about this phone right now because at this time, the phone still in the post office place. I don’t know why Amazon choose USPS for carrying that shipping. 5 days for Amazon to fullfill the shipment, then 3-4 days for shipping to my house. That is so ridiculous. Tracking is also bad at always, go to USPS and it didn’t show anything, go to Amazon and it said Arrival some where I don’t know. Hopefully tomorrow I can get that phone and post another review.

Every 5 or 6t months I change my phone so u can say am expert in phones, why I hate this phone. First a lot of bugs in the software always freezes. Second my first Nokia 5530 stopped working after 14 days so I called Amazon for replacement; they sent me a new one. after 31 days the new one stopped working so I called Amazon again and they said there warranty is only for 30 days through them, so now I have to contact Nokia which is gona take them 60 days to send me a new one after sending them the defective phone, in my opinion save your money, go buy a phone from a store that u can return it directly without waiting this much time, and the phone doesn’t worth more than $50, and at the end its made in china!! Am so disappointed by Nokia’s…..and from Amazon with their 30 days warranty.

I love this phone! I was going for the 5800 however, I didn’t see the need for all of those features that I’m not going to use. So This phone is great value for the money and it’s Nokia, it will last!

I’ve had the phone for 3 days. I like it because it is smaller than the iphone. It is not 3G, so it takes longer to download pages from the internet. It has a stylus. I use it some, but it is unnecessary as I get used to the touch screen. Features are easily accessible. I am using this primarily as a telephone. In that regard it is vastly superior to the iphone. The telephone features of the nokia 5530 xpress are easier to use and fewer menus make it much simpler to make, place, id, and use call lists. This is not the best phone I’ve had (Samsung agh727) but it is a good phone and I am going to use it for awhile until I master it.
