Comparisons Featuring Samsung i530
Short Review
- The Samsung i530, released in 2004, features a compact design with dimensions of 90 x 55 x 27.5 mm and a weight of 145g, making it portable but somewhat bulky by modern standards.
- Its display offers a resolution of 162 x 176 pixels with a 65K color UFS type, providing decent visual quality for its time, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is powered by an Intel PXA262 CPU running at 200 MHz, paired with 32MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
- The camera is basic, with a 1 MP rear sensor and no video recording or selfie capabilities, reflecting the era's standards.
- Battery specifications are not provided, indicating a lack of modern features such as fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- The device runs on Palm OS 5.2, which may limit access to contemporary apps and functionalities.
- Connectivity options are minimal, with no support for WiFi, Bluetooth, or NFC, relying solely on a proprietary USB connection.
- The absence of stereo speakers and a headphone jack may hinder audio experiences.
- Overall, the Samsung i530 is a straightforward device with essential features, suitable for basic communication tasks.
