Xenium X530, the latest Philips phone
Posted by: Maria Mihale in Philips
After so many articles about Nokia handsets, Samsung or Sony Ericsson ones, here is a piece of good news coming from a company that is often neglected: Philips. The latest Philips phone to be announced is the Xenium X530, which is branded with the Philips name, even if it’s manufactured by a Chinese company. Don’t worry, it’s practically the same thing, as the mobile division of Philips Electronics was bought by this company.

The phone is an entry-level one, coming with the following features: tri band GSM/EDGE connectivity (900/1800/2100 MHz), a 2.2 inch internal TFT display with a resolution of 240x320 pixels and 262k colors, an 1 inch OLED external display, a 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity with A2DP, music player, FM radio with RDS, NXP 5210 chipset. The new Philips phone measures approximately 99.1 x 47.1 x 18 millimeters.
Anyway, being part of the Xenium family, one thing’s for sure: the device will come a long-lasting battery. In the given context, the X530 provides up to 8 hours of talk time and up to 850 hours of stand-by time.

The phone has recently received the approbation of FCC and it’s expected to hit Asian and European markets only. However, the details about the pricing or the release date are still unknown.
