Nokia 5530 XpressMusic On Its Way

There is a new Nokia handset in the offing from the XpressMusic stable – the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic. This will follow the 5800 in terms of focus, where it will concentrate on both music and entertainment for those living a highly mobile lifestyle, retaining the full touchscreen interface as well as a revamped home screen and Contacts Bar without bloating the hardware with a larger footprint. Features of this new handset will include a 3.2-megapixel camera and LED flash; Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, although the lack of 3G (it maxes out at EDGE) is quite disturbing in this day and age. Movie buffs will love the widescreen display that can handle video playback at 640 x 360 resolution, where the microSD memory card slot ought to be able to hold more than enough portable media to keep you occupied. Expect to see the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic hit the market in Q3 for approximately €199.
