Positioning

Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is the first staffed high quality headphones. Directly for this series, the company has developed a unique type of headset. A well-known to many fans of the company model 5800 is, in fact, a copy of Nokia 5530. The characteristics of the latter, however, are slightly reduced. Our hero has a smaller body size, a more modest screen and memory indicators, the delivery package is also simplified. However, due to this approach, the manufacturer managed to offer functional device at a much more affordable price. So, this phone Suitable to people who are looking for a touch musical device with a small cost from the well-known manufacturer. Nokia 5530 S60 firmware, which also characterizes it from a good side.

Design, Dimensions and Control Elements

The device is made of plastic, with the metal grid here 2 speakers are taken here. They are located on the front surface. The size of the device is 104x49x13 mm with a weight of 107 grams. Since the device is relatively small, it pleasantly falls into the hand. In this model, the manufacturer refused the usual mechanical button "Menu", all keys on the front panel - sensory. A separate button that starts the multimedia line with the application icons is located above the screen. Right lateral side contains a paired volume control key, screen lock function. On the left there is a cover covering the memory card connector, and a SIM card slot. On the top face there is a power button, and on the bottom - 3.5 mm headset connector and the input for connecting the charger. hides the plug, which is extended from the housing. In addition, there is also a stylus.

If you judge by user reviews, the quality of assembly does not cause complaints. Also, the owners welcome the rejection of the screw in the design, since due to this body in the upper corner does not depart. Here is applied inexpensive plastic, rear panel Made a glossy, chrome-plated kant surrounds the screen that gives the device an additional charm.

Some users in their reviews express dissatisfaction with the fact that the phone is not very securely bonded, which causes a certain backlash. Panel need to wear carefully and snap it to the end. When the phone is fully assembled, the backlash is preserved, but it is not very large.

For Nokia 5530, 5 color solutions are provided, conventionally can be divided into 2 groups. The main tint is black or white. Next, you should choose the color of Kant. Total 5 color variations. They are all worthy of attention.

Display

The screen covers the plastic protective surface. The display is almost not immersed in the housing. Work is carried out by hand and stylus. Diagonal - 2.9 inches. The screen displays 16 million shades, the picture is juicy and bright. Nokia 5530 received AFFS technology, which made it possible to achieve excellent viewing angles. The screen unfolds automatically, based on the position of the housing. Change of orientation takes about a second. On the edges of the display are sides. During scrolling on the right, the finger may well touch one of them. However, it does not cause unpleasant sensations. The side is almost impaired. The screen remains readable in the sun. It places 14 text strings and 3 service. The screen is great for viewing large lists, photos and videos.

Battery

BL-4U applies in the device - lithium-ion battery. It has a capacity of 1000 mAh. According to the manufacturer, the phone can work 4.5 hours when talking. It is also assumed to provide 350 hours in case of standby. Music playback period - 27 hours. Video recording with maximum quality can last 140 minutes. Play his phone is capable of 3.5 hours. If you proceed from user reviews, the average operation of the device is 2 days. Complete battery charging takes about one and a half hours.

Performance

Animation in Nokia 5530 depends on the topic used, but the effects work perfectly. Speed \u200b\u200bdoes not cause complaints. The processor here is used arm11. The frequency of it is 434 MHz.

Memory

The volume of RAM in this case is 128 MB. The Nokia 5530 phone after loading has within 70-74 megabytes of memory on the domestic drive. Also available approximately 75 MB in the device itself to save personal data. Included there is a memory card for 4 GB. If you wish, you can use removable media up to 32 GB. Supports the possibility of "hot" memory card replacement.

Data transfer interfaces

In USB settings, you can choose the most suitable of four modes of operation. When working with Data Transfer, the phone's memory is visible, as well as installed drives, no drivers are required. The operating system independently recognizes the phone. You can also activate PC Suite mode, which opens access to the entire variety of equipment functions. Among them there are even backup information. If you select Image Transfer, photo transmission will start. Provided and special mode for transmitting multimedia files. It is called Media Transfer. The information transfer rate is approximately 5 MB / c.

Some users in their reviews complain that during the USB cable connection, the phone does not charge. Bluetooth version - 2.0. Work is provided with EDR. The device supports many profiles. The average information transfer rate via Bluetooth reaches 100 kb / s. User feedback indicate that the possibility of connecting the headset through wireless interface Works without complaints. The device supports Wi-Fi. All basic security standards are provided, settings are maximal. There is a "wi-fi network wizard". This tool can be "in the background" to search for connections and, if necessary, connect to the network.

Music opportunities

The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic phone received a classic player, but the sound quality in this case is at the height, thanks to complete headphones. Their model WH205. This solution Users recognize one of the best in its price category. Some feedback is regrettable about the lack of a telephone control point on the headset.

The list of supported formats is huge. In the case of MP3 files, there are different bitrates, including VBRs. If you synchronize the WMP device, it is possible to work with protected DRM files. It should be noted that the name of the composition, the author, as well as the control elements are displayed on the display. Progressive rewind is provided. The sound quality during the choice of equalizers changes markedly. At the same time, each of these 8-way tools. They are pre-installed 6.

Everything can be edited according to their preferences. Make edits can not only be the default sound. The list of equalizers is as follows: Rock, Pop, Jazz, Classical, Bass, Booster. Sound settings allow you to set the balance of the channels, use the stereo adjust extension, as well as the Loudness function. There is a possibility of accidental playback, the reverse of the entire list of compositions or only selected. The screen always displays data on the song played. The music menu has the ability to sort the list along the songs, playlists, performers, composers, genres and albums.

Another important feature of the Nokia 5530 is the price. You can buy it today for 88 US dollars.

Available year ago. 5530 has selected GPS-navigation capabilities, the size has become slightly smaller, weight is slightly lighter. This phone is deprived of the possibility of working in third-generation networks. The data transfer rate is limited by the HSCSD standard. The display also became a little less - his diagonal is 2.9 inches instead of 3.2, but it is made using AFFS technology, which is the development of S-IPS and provides broad viewing angles.

Specifications Nokia 5530 XpressMusic and positioning

Since our readers have the opportunity to get acquainted with Nokia 5800 in detail in detailed review, It makes sense to stop at the controversial with her, at the same time comparing the characteristics of these two models with the Nokia 5230 phone, which the other day appears on sale. A comparison is more than fair, since all three devices enter the XpressMusic music line and today represent a comprehensive list of Nokia's music phones equipped with a touch screen and sold in our market. Does not apply to musical, but (especially for our inattentive readers from Russia) is not yet sold in our market.

From the whole triple model is the smallest and easy, possessing the smallest, but more technologically advanced screen. Only the lack of a GPS receiver and support for third-generation networks does not allow him to become a killer 5800, fully buried her sales. It is worth saying that I do not fully agree with one of the common opinions that 5530 is an improved 5800, in which everything has been improved and "brought to mind." The world knows many examples of how successful companies once again release new items that are popular and thus destroying the sale of previous products. It is enough to remember Gillette, each new razor system of which in the literal sense of the word devours the previous one, forcing buyers again and again buy the products of this brand, closing their eyes on the goods of competitors. I'm not going to justify anyone in some way, but in such actions, in my opinion, there is logic. Take a look at any store: touch phones Many, in each you will definitely meet samsung Models S5230 STAR, LG KP500, and completely fresh Samsung Corby and LG GD510. But in each you will also meet the model Nokia: 5800, 5530 and soon 5230. At the same time, Nokia phones are always more expensive and are smartphones. You can discuss as much as possible on the topic of prices, but it is quite obvious that each company seeks to achieve such a level when buyers will be ready to pay more than those of competitors similar in opportunities.

Complete set Nokia 5530 XpressMusic

To begin with, I propose to see a small video that gives an idea of \u200b\u200bwhat the phone has been staffed.

Appearance

The phone's stylus Unlike model 5800 has a round cross section. For convenience of extracting on its tip there is a special element for which you can pose a nail.

The phone comes in a black or silver body. Silver, in my opinion, looks prettier, his front panel looks metal, even if such is not. In this case, there are still 3 types, characterized by a plastic insert in the sidewall. In addition to blue (in the picture) there may be more yellow or purple. Together with a pair of modifications of the black case, we obtain 5 possible delivery options as a result.

Plastic rear panel looks unnecessarily simple. The lid seems fragile, although the experience of using 5800 from the same sloping view of the lid showed that it was not provided to break its case.

MICROUSB cable is very short. For the owner of the laptop it is convenient if desktop computer The connector is hidden on the rear panel and you need to go under the table every time, then not very. On the other hand, God knows how much time the desktops have connectors on the front panel.

The headset I liked more than that that was supplied from 5800. Headphones have seals, thanks to which they are not falling out regularly from the ears. True, at low frequencies they turned out to be weaker, juicy bass was constantly lacking.

The kit includes two more couples of other sizes - if you wish, you can choose those with which as convenient as possible.

There is no console on the headset, there is just a block with a bracket for attaching clothes, a call response button and a microphone (black point on the middle shot).

On the right pane are placed (from left to right) Radio for controlling the volume, screen lock lever, camera button. On the left - a long plug for a double jack, which contains a memory card and a SIM card. In the upper part, only the power key, in the bottom - the microusb connector, 3.5 mm headphone socket and a 2-mm connector for the charger.

The plug is extended on the plastic plate.

It does not rotate, but it is long enough to make the cable connection not creating inconvenience.

On the right of the XpressMusic inscription there is a touch button of a special media panel, which could be read in detail in the 5800 review. At the bottom of the three sensory buttons (from the hardware they refused at all). Potentially, this means that when the application hangs, the phone will only be turned off, while the hardware button would switch to the application manager and close the problem. But it is rather the theory. In practice, I did not notice.

The built-in 3-megapixel chamber is mounted with the backlight LED. She seemed to me noticeably weaker than that of the model 5800. However, buyers of musical models camera, as practice shows, worries little.

A long plug is attached by one end to the case. Unlike, let's say Nokia 5730, where it was attached in the center and lost very quickly.

Inside the SIM card and memory card. The plug is rejected, as you can see, almost 180 degrees.

Under the lid there are no surprises. Only the nest for the stylus.

Accumulator capacity 1000 mAh

Comparative sizes with Nokia N97 and N97 mini

Of course, it would be more correct to compare Nokia 5530 with models of 5800 and 5230, but only Nokia N97 and N97 mini turned out to be at hand:

Now all this is on the video and live:

Menu features

Of course, the phone interface is determined by the version of the operating system. All this in details can be seen in the Nokia 5800 review. Here I would just like to dwell on the peculiarities. But most screenshots are shown simply for general acquaintance.

The desktop has three visualization options, 4 link shortcuts can be installed independently.

Topics: Standard, Link Panel, Contact Panel. The latter may contain not 4 references, like 5800, and 20. What is very good.

Phone control menu. It's nice that the placement of the icons can be adjusted by itself, moving the square with the desired applications to the right.

The dialer is standard, with large buttons so that you do not need to get the stylus. In the vertical orientation, the virtual keyboard is telephone. To switch to the sensor QWERTY-keyboard mode, you just need to turn the phone to the horizontal position (which, by the way, was not 5800). Dozen templates will help you quickly send a message (a pleasant thing, but I'm wondering - they actually use someone? I personally forget about such an opportunity, although at least one third of my messages could use one of these texts).

The browser has not changed in any way, installed applications for social networks (We are still waiting for programs for popular with us LiveJournal, in contact and classmates). Of course, the menu has the ability to connect to OVI. Bookmarks in the browser lead there.

The browser does not apply to the most convenient, still do not collect more about it. He knows how much, but for the convenience of the Multitach (and capacitive screen), he probably would not hurt.

Screenshots of system memory, memory cards and music player.

The "Upgrade software" item allows you through the current Internet connection (that's where Wi-Fi is useful) update the firmware or install new applications.

Everything is done easily and simply, you only need to agree with everything (I will like it very much).

Positioning

In the Nokia 5800 review, I allowed myself to open the curtain of the mystery over Nokia plans and tell, in which direction the sensory devices will go. Those who carefully read reviews and participate in the life of the forum, knew about a year ago that in the first half of 2009 an inexpensive version of the Nokia 5800 with trimmed functionality would be announced. This happened later than it was originally intended, because sales of Nokia 5800 exceeded all the most bold predictions, this device was one of the most sold on the market. In the same segment - unconditional leader. What shifted the launch dates for Nokia 5530. Is it good or bad? In my opinion, there is a two-way situation. For us as buyers, this means greater stability of software, as it is similar to those used in the Nokia 5800, the service life of the device becomes less for the company. On the other hand, exactly the same number of months increases the life of the Nokia 5800.

During the victorious procession in the Nokia 5800 markets, the competitors did not sleep, so Samsung released the Star model to the market, which became in the 200-250 euros segment also an unconditional leader. This is one of the most accessible sensory devices. The price plays not the last value, and the Star example is clearly proved. The emerging apparatus from Nokia will have to compete with it, as well as a number of other models, for example, LG KP500, although the share of the latter is small.

Samsung Star:


Nokia 5530 XpressMusic:


The main task of Nokia is the expansion of the model range of the apparatus with touchscreen. IN currently These are three models - Nokia 5800, Nokia N97 as a flagship, as well as Nokia 5530. Expect an aggressive expansion of the number of models in 2009 it is impossible, this is a gradual expansion of the sentence, step by step. Against the background of Samsung activity, such efforts are insufficient, but for Nokia because of the perception of the brand, its share on the market they are justified. The company will have high sales for each of the models in its segments, not maximum in the entire market, but high. This, apparently, is quite enough.

What is Nokia 5530 XpressMusic? Perhaps this is the first musical phone that is completed for a long period of time with high-quality headphones. Especially for the XpressMusic line inside Nokia developed a new type of headset. In fact, we see a complete copy of the Nokia 5800 in a smaller case in size, with slightly degraded characteristics - less screen, less memory, worse than the package. Less cost. Probably, it can be stopped and noted that not everyone is on the Nokia 5800 pocket. It follows the conclusion that this is an offer for those who are looking for a touch musical phone for minimal money and from a well-known company.

Unusual is the fact that Nokia 5530 is one of the most inexpensive smartphones On S60, which also gives him additional benefits. Not everyone understands what smartphones are, why are they needed, so it will be an inexpensive touchscreen device from Nokia, but for the part of the audience this is an interesting offer due to the cost of S60.

Design, dimensions, control elements

And again the device is made of plastic, two speakers are taken with metal grid, which are located on the front surface. The sound applies otherwise than in the Nokia 5800, someone believes that the speakers are worse, someone finds them more pleasant. On my subjective taste, they are not better and no worse, exactly the same.



Phone size - 104x49x13 mm (5800 - 111x51.7x15.5 mm), weight - 107 grams (109 grams in 5800). The model is smaller in size, more pleasant lies in hand. It was possible to achieve this only by the fact that the screen diagonal was reduced.



Comparison with Nokia 5800 XpressMusic:













Comparison with Nokia N97:






To other changes refer to mechanical key Menu, all buttons on the front panel sensory. It may like it or not, but obviously convenient, as there is no difference in clicks on the screen or these keys. A separate key to start the multimedia ruler with applications labels is located above the screen.

On the right side is a paired volume adjustment key, the screen lock slider, it has not undergone strong changes and may apparently, dine, just like on Nokia N97, Nokia 5800, but it is necessary to check in practice, with long use of the device I'm doing at the moment. The left side of the folding cover is made, which covers the memory card connector, as well as the SIM card slot. On the top end - the on / off button, on the bottom - 3.5 mm connector for connecting the headset, the connector is 2 mm for the charger, as well as the microusb connector, it is hidden behind the plug, extended from the case. The stylus is right there.





In my opinion, the quality of the assembly is no worse than in the Nokia 5800, but the design was escaped with the screw, that is, a potentially case should not be outlined in the upper right corner. Plastic inexpensive, the rear panel is glossy, and the chrome-plated Kant around the screen gives the device a specific charm. The back panel does not attach the rear panel too tight, there is a certain backlash, it annoys. You need to wear a panel carefully, snap to the end. In the collected state, the backlash is preserved, it is not too large, but is present.

Five color solutions are available, they can be divided into two groups - the main color is black or white. Further color is determined by the color of the Kant on the side. Total five color variations. They all look good.


Display

The screen is covered with a plastic protective surface, almost not recessed into the housing, you can work both hand and stylus. The display is almost completely similar to that in the Nokia 5800 at first glance, slightly less diagonal. Let me remind you that diagonal in 5800 - 3.2 inches, aspect ratio - 16: 9, resolution - 640x360 points (39x69 mm). Here is the diagonal of the device 2.9 inches. The display displays up to 16 million colors, the picture is juicy, bright, striking.



The difference between the screens is detected at the direct comparison. In the room the picture is brighter, it is better to be visible on the Nokia 5530, there are no differences in the sun. In Nokia 5530, the screen is one of the first to be equipped with AFFS technology, which allows you to achieve good viewing angles. Not sure that the viewing angles are so important, but the picture quality is different.


The screen automatically unfolds depending on the position of the housing. Over the turn takes one second or is less. The display is slightly recessed into the housing, on the edges there are sides. When scrolling on the right, the finger may touch the side, someone will not like it, but in principle there is no unpleasant feeling. Frame is less than in Nokia 5800, it is almost impaired.

In the sun, the screen remains readable, there are no problems here. Up to 14 lines of text are placed on the screen, up to 3 service lines. The display is ideal for watching videos, photos, large lists.


Battery

The phone uses a BL-4U lithium-ion battery, it has a capacity of 1000 mAh (battery capacity in 5800 - 1320 mAh). According to the manufacturer, the phone is able to work up to 4.5 hours in conversation mode, up to 350 hours in standby mode. Music playback time - up to 27 hours, video records in maximum quality - up to 140 minutes, video playback - up to 3.5 hours.



The operating time of the device on average is about 2 days in the conditions of Moscow cellular networks. At the same time, you can talk up to the hour, take a few pictures, write a couple of minutes a couple of minutes and listen to the radio or music to an hour. The time of complete battery charging is about an hour of thirty minutes. For active users who check mail, sit in Twitter, work time is about one working day. My device was discharged guaranteed by the evening. For comparison: Nokia 5800 lived in my hands up to two days, Nokia N97 - one and a half day at least. Therefore, among these models, Nokia 5530 is minimal.

Let's give the maximum working hours in various modes:

  • View video - 1 hour 40 minutes (H.264 in speaker mode)
  • Web surfing (EDGE connection) - 3 hours
  • Listening to music in headphones - 24 hours
  • Radio - 21.5 hours

The reduced battery capacity of almost 30 percent leads to a decrease in work time for similar time.

Performance

Animation depends on the chosen theme, but the effects work perfectly, the speed of work has increased, it is noticeable to the eye. Arm11 processor with a frequency of 434 MHz, which also contributes to a slightly large interface speed (although the main merit is in Softe).

Memory

The amount of RAM in the phone is 128 MB, after loading in the device freely from 70 to 74 MB of memory. About 75 MB of memory is also available to the user to save its data. The kit includes a 4 GB memory card, it will be enough for most users. We checked the work card to 32 GB, the phone recognizes it without any problems. Supported "hot" memory card replacement.

USB, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi

USB. In USB settings, you can choose one of 4 modes of operation:

  • Data TRANSFER (Mass Storage USB) - It is visible both the phone's memory and memory cards, no drivers are required, the OS itself identifies the phone.
  • PC Suite. - Working with Nokia PC Suite, access to all the functions of the device, backup all information and so on.
  • Image Transfer. - Transfer photos.
  • Media Transfer. - Transfer multimedia files (MTP).

The data transfer rate is about 5 MB / c. When you connect a USB cable, the phone charging does not occur.

Bluetooth. Bluetooth version in smartphone - 2.0 with EDR support. The device supports the following profiles:

  • Dial Up Networking Profile (Gateway)
  • Object Push Profile (Server and Client)
  • File Transfer. Profile (Server)
  • Hands FREE PROFILE (Audio Gateway)
  • HEADSET PROFILE (Audio Gateway)
  • Basic Imaging Profile (Image Push Responder and Initiator)
  • REMOTE SIM ACCESS PROFILE (SERVER)
  • Device Identification Profile
  • PHONE BOOK ACCESS PROFILE (SERVER)
  • Stereo Audio Streaming:
  • Generic Audio / Video Distribution Profile
  • Audio / Video Remote Control Profile (A / V Remote Control Target)
  • ADVANCED AUDIO DISTRIBUTION PROFILE (Audio Source)

Bluetooth data transfer rate is on average 100 kb / s. We checked the operation of the transmission of stereo sounds on such a headset, like Sony Ericsson DS970, control of compositions, rewind, runs without problems, at the same time the name of the current song on the screen is not displayed.

Wi-Fi. The device implements Wi-Fi support (IEEE 802.11g). All security standards are supported (WEP, WPA, WPA2), maximal settings. There is a wiz-fi network, he can background mode To search them and, if necessary, connect to such networks.

Music opportunities

Nokia typical player, but due to complete headphones, the device sounds better than Nokia 5800 out of the box. The WH205 model is one of the best on the market among those included with the phone. In its price class, these are the best complete headphones in the phone. It is a pity that there is no control panel for the phone.

List of supported formats: AAC, AAC +, EAAC, EAAC +, MP3, MP4, M4A, WMA, Mobile XMF, SP-MIDI, AMR (NB-AMR), MIDI Tones (Poly 64), Realaudio 7,8,10, True Tones (WB-AMR), WAV. For MP3 files, various bitrates are supported, including VBR. When synchronizing S. Windows Media. Player 11 and subsequent versions It is possible to use protected DRM files (Janus DRM).

Equalizers. Sound quality when changing equalizers is also noticeably changed. Each equalizer is 8-strip, they are pre-installed 6, each can be edited at its discretion, except for the default sound. Here is the list of equalizers: Bass Booster, Classical, Jazz, Pop, Rock. In the sound settings, you can also select the balance of the channels, the stereo tavern extension (stereowidening), plus loudness.

The device has a random play function, as well as the repeat of all songs or selected. In idle mode, the screen displays information about the playable file.

The music menu has sorting a list of songs on all songs, playlists (there are automatic - recently added, never played, etc.), performers, albums, genres and composers. Music Library (read the list of files) is automatically updated when synchronizing with a PC using Nokia PC Suite, if you insert a card with recorded compositions, this does not occur. Interesting option viewing general information about the music library.

Podcasting. - Podcasts are an integral part of the music player, previously it was a separate application. You can access podcasts from the player menu, and you can download the application separately, in the second case there is access to the library, the catalog of podcasts from Nokia, their search, synchronization configuration, and so on. It is possible to automatically load podcasts to which you are signed, is taken into account how to load podcasts (in the native network or only through a specific access point). There are filters to access podcasts, in general, the application is convenient and very useful.

A music shop - Access to the Nokia Music Store, it is possible to buy songs, albums, upload them to your device.

FM radio - Normal radio, when you first start, it offers to choose a region, depending on this will be applied to a particular FM range. There is support for RDS, automatic setting At the station, when playing the frequency of the station in the form of an animated screensaver is shown on the screen. Very nice. Something special about the radio can not be said.

Camera

A CMOS matrix is \u200b\u200bused here, resolution - 3.2 megapixels, autofocus. Talking in the first impressions that the camera is a cheap option of Nokia 5800, I focused exclusively for its value. Comparison in practice has shown that the camera wins the color reproduction with the same Nokia 5800, it looks more interesting. On the other hand, the module itself is really cheaper. In comparison, you can see the differences of the camera, but for now about the settings.

Camera settings are as follows, you can choose one of 3 permissions:

  • PRINT 3M - LARGE
  • PRINT 2M - MEDIUM
  • Multimedia Message 0.3m

There are the following modes (Scene Mode): Automatic, User Defined, Close-Up, Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Night, Night Portrait.

You can set the grid on the screen, set the timer to shoot yourself.

The color effects are as follows: sepia, b & w, vivid, negative. White balance - Automatic, Sunny, Cloudy, Incandescent, Fluorescent. Contrast from -2 to +2. Sharpness for three parameters is set to ISO (Low, Medium, High).

In a word, quite ordinary camera settings. Let's take a look at the photo, you yourself appreciate that the chamber of the stars is not enough from the sky, it is quite comfortable for this machine.

The stunning success of the first touchscreen smartphone from the Finnish company Nokia, perhaps, broke all records of sales. Yes, we are talking now about the 5800 - smartphone with a touch screen of the XpressMusic series. It is logical that a considerable amount of time passed before the release of the next lineup, if 5800 is sold, why to invent something new or simply to bring to the market what can distract attention? But time is coming, the public is inevitably asking "spectacles" and here, meet. The continuer of musical touch smartphones, model 5530. This is a new, compact device with an attractive appearance, but, judging by the characteristics, a slightly smaller functionality than the predecessor. What the hand of marketers affected, and what remained unchanged, read in our review.

The X-series of devices registered by the manufacturer, as not so long ago, we wrote in the news, most likely will be given to XPressMusic apparatuses and, as we have already written in the review of another lineup, 5730, the Nokia rate on this lineup is high and justified. Thus, the appearance of a high-tech apparatus in this series is quite expected, and the rest, the rest will wait - because the "computer" of N97 quite recently entered the market, and he is intended to satisfy his audience to satisfy some other time before the release of followers.

Let's think together what you need young people? Well, in terms of devices, gadgets, electronic stuff? To start - music playerIt is desirable with the radio and definitive function with the jack for classic headphones (mini-jack 3,5mm). Video or video clips, where without them, and with the arrival in our life youtube, their number grows in geometric progression. Telephone, yes, of course, but the phone with the ability to transmit SMS, the installation of various messengers and e-mail. What else? Perhaps games, but games, as it is known to be interesting to play on the big screen or at least more than the standard one. All these "need" and are assembled in our Guest today, a new product of the manufacturer, 5530.

Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: Design and features

Let's start the story about the smartphone from the exterior, in order not to violate the traditions. Before us is a rather compact bar monoblock, without an external antenna. On the sides, the device is skillfully rounded, and on the edges it is simply smoothed, which is felt when used: to keep the smartphone in hand is comfortable and nice. An important role in this is played by the execution materials. This is a mixture of metal and plastic that does not dissone, but rather complements each other. The edging of the front panel, which comes to it to a greater extent in the upper and lower part, covering the speakers - metallic, without additional coating, i.e. Silver. It fuses the display and a small zone around it, covered with plastic. For sidelights, it will rather say, according to an external contour, the device is looking for a blue plastic tape, turning further into a white mother of pearl, ends on the rear panel. Materials Corps are good, plastic is pleasant, and the appearance created by them is attractive.

In terms of the assembly, we have only 2 comments - this is a slight backlash back cover and the point of contact of the metal case with a plastic display: there is a large proportion that dust or garbage will be clogged into these cracks, so the cover for 5530 is extremely desirable.

Dimensions 5530 small and the first impression of the magnitude of the apparatus may be due to the lack of a "hardwrix" keyboard. If it is submitted and evaluated to estimate it, then only the thickness of the device may seem enlarged. In numerical expression, this is 104 x 49 x 13 mm and 107 gr. Weight. In comparison with the same 5800, the novelty looks objectively less, but with the same screen resolution - this is a plus, agree?

We will analyze in detail the element of the design, which in the presence of sensory input is not so much. Dominant front panel and apparatus as a whole is a display. 2.9 "TFT matrix with touch-screen, a resolution of 640 x 360 pixels and the ability to display up to 16.7 million colors. In comparison with the same 5800, the picture 5530 is clearer, because with a smaller display size resolution remains the same. Colors in 5530 are more natural, while 5800, they slightly go into blue. The brightness of the display is good, but the behavior in the sun is comparable to other devices equipped with Touch-Screen - the picture will noticeably fade and have to look out, i.e. You can call, but the other functions either through hot keys, or wait until sunset.

Above the display, slightly displaced to the right, the XpressMusic key is located, which opens up quick access to the musical functions of the smartphone. Above it is a conversational speaker under a grid formed by a metal contour.

Under the display, we see familiar to 5800, 3 keys - receiving and rejecting the call, as well as the "Menu" between them, although, in contrast to the predecessor, where these items were "hardware", in 5530 they are sensory, which is comfortable perceived with a finger, and stylus.

Below the mirror is a grid, under which the second is hiding, already an external speaker of the device. Such a location if the design is justified, it does not quite positively affect when playing with an inverted hull, as you understand.

The keys and elements of the side faces look as follows: On the right - the combined volume swing, the blocking key and the camera button (starting the application and shutter). All items, if not different, then with a length, everything is fine, and it is convenient to use (although the location of the camera key requires skulls - the device of that and looked out of the hand). At the junction of the right face with the bottom we see a hole, followed by a hook for the strap, access to which is open after removing the back cover.

On the left is the impressive non-removable cover, covering the sled cards of the MICROSD memory and the SIM card. In 5800, these items were covered with 2 independent lids, and this species It seems to us more justified - why provoke one of the elements to fallout when you open access to another. In addition, the long plug prevents much more than two short. The stylus penalty is located at the junction of the left facet of the housing from the bottom, and the shank of the pen successfully complements the bending of the structure, which is not immediately noticeable (although the recess to the Penal is present to the extraction). The location of the Penal is somewhat unusual, i.e. If you are right-handed, then the device is logical in your left hand, but also the stylus pencil in the 5530 is on the left. Toli manufacturer takes the stylus with a minimal role, it was not possible to put it technologically to the right, do not take it, do not judge.

The pen itself is a whole-flame white rod, the shank of which is painted into the color of the pearl back panel to create the integrity of the image image. The length of the rod is 92 mm, and it is quite comfortable for work, but the fact that he is somewhat "complicated" does not give him opportunities when invalid installation In the penalty, turn it out there - you have to pull out and make manipulation again.

On the top face, in the center, slightly speaking from the housing, there is a switch-on-shutdown key with a small and tight move. The bottom edge is represented by a classic audio connector (mini-jack 3,5mm), a hole of the charger and the MicroUSB connector, covered with a non-removable cap on an impressive leg. In contrast to the 5800, these items moved from the top face to the bottom, and this is quite justified, not counting the audio connector, it is just at the top.

The rear, pearl side 5530 is notable only to the console of the chamber and the battery compartment lid. Camera console is highlighted in a black spot on a white background of the panel and accommodates the flash light and lens. We will talk about her capabilities later when describing the menu. But what should be said right away - no protection at the element is not, so the need to use the cover is obvious for the second time.

To remove the back cover, we need a nail or, for example, a card to pry the appropriate protrusion at the top of the panel and pull the cover up. Locking 5 protrusions (2 below and one on the remaining parties) we will be able to extract it.

For the battery there is an impressive deepening on the form of the battery in which it is stored only on the power of friction (the minimum ledge in the upper part could not fully hold it into the compartment).

Extraction of the battery is only in one case - the need to get a sim card and even that the SIM card itself is, and more precisely its compartment is located on the left side, does not give her the opportunity to be removed without removal of the battery. Those. Under the battery, we see the hole in which it is necessary to insert the stylus and, pressing the card on the tail, give it the initial acceleration. Why not make a compartment for a sim card with sleds and not to provide it with a "hot replacement" function - it is not clear.

Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: User interface

The software platform on which the 5530 XpressMusic - Symbian S60 of the 5th edition is based. Despite its "sensoryness", the platform turned out to be well acquainted to users of Series 60 and addiction difficulties, or the development was not seen. Of course, the touchscreen display imposes some imprint to use, but the software and "software" plan is not as weighty so as not to know the familiar S60.

Putting alongside 5530 and 5730 (a review of which not so long ago was published on our resource) We tried to compare - and what is so drastically distinguished by the devices? Perhaps the screen sizes - in 5530 it is more eligible. Otherwise, everything is quite similar and the case here is not in the dark themes of design and identical icons of applications.

So, the desktop 5530 is the upper strip, given under the signal level and the battery level, separated by the corners, between which the clock is located (digital or analog), the name of the network of the operator and the current date under it. In the bottom, the touch keys of the dialer and notebook are boiled. The main desktop field varies according to the selected topic and is designed to simplify access to frequently used features. Options only 3: Link panel, standard or contact panel. In the first case - panel quick access To the 4th applications under which the search string is located and follows the current calendar records. Standard - a varical clean desktop (after all, we remember that the upper strip is unchanged and "irreparable"). The contact panels in the top of the fast set of "favorite rooms" icons are displayed, under which the access strip is located. e-mailWhile the link panel shifted into the bottom of the display.

The wallpaper of the desktop can be selected both applied theme and manually from the captured or loaded content and will allow you to change the appearance of the device beyond recognition. Topic in delivery - 5, but all of them are pretty similar in the personification of the menu and differ only in the title picture, but this does not interfere with the user from the first minutes to install any other topic that can change not only the display of the display, but most of the icons by changing the interface practically beyond recognition.

The main menu can be represented in 2 versions: icons, or list. Icons - matrix of 12 icons (3x4) on the screen, with well-drawn static pictures and inscriptions under them. The list is a vertical list of 9 points, the main part of which is the name, and the icon is located on the left. Similar to the second type of display of the main menu, subparagraphs are also made - they are also located a vertical list, but do not always occupy the entire screen field, it all depends on the fullness.

As before, the user is free to rebuild most applications at their discretion, group them in the folders convenient to it, remove from the main menu to the secondary, which opens up ample personification opportunities and fine tuning the apparatus "for itself".

XpressMusic dialer even in the absence of "hardware" keys looks quite a full-fledged tool and the point here is the value of the sensory buttons, and in the classical placement of them - 3 columns of 5 keys in each, given that the lower line is responsible for sending a call, access to the record Book and removal of the last symbol.

As it often happens, with devices on Series 60, we will focus in detail on the basic functionality of the smartphone, given the considerable amount of third-party software, designed if not replaced, then provide the user with freedom of choice - whether to use regular means, or choose a third-party product product.

Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: Telephone service

The book of contacts is one of the strongest sides of the smartphones built on the basis of S60. The number of contacts is limited only by free memory in the phone, which is absolutely typical for all smartphones. There are 3 typical fields (more precisely, three fields with typical marks) for mobile numbers, video calls, telephone numbers, faxes, email addresses, contact addresses on the Internet, postal addresses, and one typical field for a pager, name, surname, notes and dates. The name can be in a single copy, like a birthday (and a couple more), but the number of all other fields is at your discretion. The postal address field includes 7 internal fields. Well, of course, the main "chip" of the Symbian book of contacts did not disappear anywhere - renaming fields (changing the label). The standard may be not only the phone number, but also e-mail, telephone for video link, SMS, MMS. Photoid service What was the same and therefore, therefore, without a third-party program, Nokia deliberately does not change the work of this service. Actually the name of the field "Minikartinka" completely reflects the essence of the case.

Voice dialing works with the help of a synthesizer, that is, voice labels are not required - it is enough to say a name from the book of contacts. Recognition occurs very high quality, in most cases the label is recognized from the first time, the problems occur only in a noisy room or on the street, if there are strong sources of noise. The fast set did not pretend anything unexpected, everything is standard.

You can enter the call log or from the menu, or by pressing the call promise key. Call lists work as before: three types of calls (unacceptable, accepted), there is no single list of all calls here. Call log is able to store information about all challenges within a month (or you can change this interval yourself). Each event can be found in detail, there are various filters when working with the log. Information components as the duration and batch data that displays the duration of the conversations and the volume of Internet traffic are also present.

Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: Messages

The phone supports work with SMS, MMS and E-mail. Nothing particularly outstanding in implementation was noticed, not counting the sensory input, plus almost everything that can be needed to use the service: templates, drafts, storage of messages on the memory card.

The MMS service is also habitually, it is supported by working with up to 300 KB messages, you can insert an image, video clip, audio clip, slide, template, a note, presentation, a subscriber card, and the MMS-message card is transformed from SMS when adding the appropriate content. The flash form is a rated sheet, at the top of which the addressee entry field is located, and in the bottom - sending, duplicating the subscriber key and adding attachments.

E-mail Client supports: IMAP, POP, SMTP -Protsol. Russian codings are present in full, but the old problem with the display of headers of some letters remained. There are settings automatic check Mail on schedule.

There is a possibility of reading incoming messages using a built-in synthesizer. By appearance The emission mode of the letter is similar to SMS, with the only difference that the "Copy" and "theme" fields are added at the top of the screen.

In general, something special is impossible about the implementation of the service messages, everything is at the level of many other manufacturers, convenience and organization leave pleasant impressions.

Separately, we will focus on entering text in 5530. We have 3 options, namely the analogue of the classic keyboard, where the selection of the symbol is carried out. QWERTY - keyboard that automatically changes the "classic" view when changing the orientation of the display (and apparatus) with a vertical to horizontal. And the third appearance is handwritten when using "Rings" on a specially designated area of \u200b\u200bthe screen, you must enter characters that are transformed into letters and numbers. All three options are appropriate and functional - the first for short messages, the second for long letters, and the third, third with a certain skill for both cases in a situation and mood.

Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: Organizer, office

The calendar supports two types of display: by months and weeks (if you do not count a separate summary of the selected date), in the latter case there is a breakdown of the day by the hour. The calendar has four types of events: meeting, memo, anniversary and business. For a list of cases there is a separate display option, plus information about the number of unfulfilled cases is displayed in standby mode.

File Manager - File Manager, which allows you to perform standard manipulations with content on the memory card and a memory card, a supplemented backup function.

Notes - Easy text editorallowing paper on a rated sheet (this is the display of the application) to make records that are further sorted in the vertical list according to the date and time of creation.

The clock application also includes an alarms and a world time function. In the first case, you can set a repeating signal by day of the week and choose a melody, and in the second to choose the city of stay and relative to the home city. View the time.

Calculator - an arithmeter with an extended functionality in the form of a memory function, square roots and percentages.

The 5530 converter allows you to recalculate in addition to the currency, the following values \u200b\u200bare:

  • Area
  • Energy
  • Length
  • Weight
  • Power
  • Pressure

    Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: Camera

    The novelty has a 3.2-megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash. The application interface is focused on the horizontal shooting and when turning the housing, the accelerometer does not regroup the items, as happens with the other applications and the menu. The main field is given under the Frame of autofocus, to the left of which are icons of the type of shooting - from above and charge battery, permissions and meter frames - bottom. To the right, about 1/5 occupy access icons to the settings, including:

    Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: games and applications

    According to the games, 5530 does not boast an extensive set - in the basic supply of them only 2, bounce (three-dimensional variation of the classic game from the manufacturer) and the Global Race, Racing Thunder (ring races with an accelerometer control - the housing deviation).

    In addition, the device supports MIDP Java 2.0, the tests of which were carried out by traditional Jbenchmark tools and with their results can be found in the table.

  • Nokia 5530 XpressMusic :: Overview :: Impressions and conclusions

    The level of reception of the novelty is comparable to other solutions of the company - checking the shaft elevator showed that the sound if it is interrupted, then the conversation itself is not breaking. The volume of the audio speaker was enough to not miss a single challenge during testing, nor on a busy street, nor in the subway train car and even when finding a device in a small shoulder bag. Vibrating alert 5530 is not bad, but not ideal, although in every way tends to this indicator.

    Spoken speaker loud, with a reserve, the microphone also did not receive negative reviews, but already from the interlocutors.

    According to the manufacturer, 1000 mAh The smartphone battery must provide up to almost 5 hours of conversation or 351 hours of waiting. Moscow Networks Beeline and MegaFon with traditional, "test" load, the battery capacity was devastated for about 2 full days, which is quite good for such a device.

    I admit honestly, having received the device in the editorial office, I approached it not quite seriously - the rich experience of communication with devices on the S60 somehow subconsciously did not allow to recognize that the platform could be sensory. But, whether the task is, whether the experience was made with all seriousness to approach the study of 5530 XpressMusic and you need to say, not in vain. For more than a week of operation, the device managed not only to get used to, but also to feel the charm of working with the touch interface on such a familiar platform. In reality, the only limitation can be the lack of a "hardwrock" keyboard, but only for those who are used to typing large texts or actively chat in messengers, although the development of the QWERTY-virtual keyboard can remove this barrier for a relatively short time, while The advantages of a large display are difficult to underestimate.

    The manufacturer has a worthy continuation of the case of sensory entertainment devices in a compact case. On the trimmed functionality compared to 5800 in the form of A-GPS, not everyone will pay attention, and support for UMTS and HSDPA for many in general only abbreviation in characteristics. In the pluses, a more powerful processor and metal in the edging of the front panel, and these are good quality especially for the target audience.

    Open for us is the question of the price - at the time of writing 5530 XpressMusic has not yet been available, so it will not work about the high cost or low cost of the device. The price is justified in the region of 10,000 rubles, it is for this price that the device will be able to decline good fame to himself, and the company will increase sales and influence on the market.
