about 2 months+ old owner reporting in.. apart from few hard resets in the initial stage, the phone is performing well. another FW upgrade will be good. battery life is good but speakerphone for the other end is bad. the main screen is nice - however, have to sacrifice calendar entries. u can hv calendar entries but hv to switch back to 5800 screen. music speakers is superb.

If the price difference is just RM100, I would still go for ori set because can get a better claim of warranty.

Hi 5530 owners,
I'm seriously considering getting one of these around Christmas, but reviews frequently mention either a wobbly back cover and/or one of the side buttons. How bad is it? I really can't stand rattly parts on phones for some reason. Also, how snappy/laggy is the menu browsing?

some my friends own it n so far love the size. positive on the reliability/quality of the phone.
my personal take on the phone is that the stylus is wobbly in its slot (can some1 confirm tis?) ...the batt cover as many have pointed out, is not firm -just lik the stylus - however, the batt cover is only wobbly if u intentionally 'test' it (by mild force), just very minimal i wud say it wont bother u cuz wont come off. but the stylus , its wobbly i dubious whether it's fall off when unnoticed . my SE G900 stylus is still firm like 1st day, perfect. myb the stylus is abit 'metallic' unlike 5530 plasticky. despite, everything else the 5530 is awesome.
i personally can cash out for tis phone anytime now but the only thg holding me back is i want the grey on black one. there is totally no news about when it's coming out.
I saw the grey on black on the 5800 n i think it's awesome , i know the 5530 is like that also , so it's painful waiting for it.
whats the color availability in kl now? im at kk and color here only red/black (most common) and blue/white. according to gsmarena n some nokia's uk/aus site, there r five colors. pink/white, yellow/white n grey/black
it wud be nice if ppl can share anything on tis

idk y but ive a feeling hp in kk is slightly cheaper than in kl the ori 5530 is rm940 AP can get rm730-740 edi from a REPUTABLE hp vendor shop in a prime shopping mall who claimed the accessories r all original...ofc AP original la... lastime when i bought my SE G900 too, is slightly cheaper than KL cheapest AP G900.
