The Vodafone 533 Lady is an affordable handset

The Vodafone 533 Lady comes with limited technology however its endearing feature is its affordability. Released in October 2009 this unit weighs only 90 g and measures 98 mm x 46 mm wide and is 14 mm thick. It is what many would consider a replacement or a second handset.


The phone comes with a 2.0 inch TFT display screen, which is surprisingly colourful considering its price range. This is due to its ability to display 256,000 colours at a pixel resolution of 176 x 220 pixels. The handset comes with vibration and ring alert types and is able to utilise polyphonic or MP3 ringtones to individualised the phone to personal taste. A speakerphone is provided which offers hands-free conversations which is a useful element.


The phone book obtained within the Vodafone 533 Lady is able to retain up to 500 entries and its call records can retain up to 20 of the last dialled, received and missed calls. Internal memory within the handset is 8 MB however this can be significantly upgraded by utilising the built in microSD card slot and relevant cards, up to a more creditable 4 GB.


GPRS, EDGE, blue tooth and USB are provided as standard within the unit and offer the ability to share files seamlessly as well as synchronise data with a PC if required. Both the GPRS and EDGE connections are class 10.


A 1.3 megapixel camera which operates at 1280 x 1024 pixels is provided with a handset that offers effective snapshots capability. Images taken with this camera are suitable to be displayed on the screen however printing out purposes some may find the images grainy.


Entertainment is provided by an MP3 player and stereo FM radio with RDS capability. Downloaded music files can be played with ease as well as the ability to listen to live broadcasts from a variety of local and national radio stations. In addition, a variety of games are included within the package to further enhance entertainment opportunities.


The Vodafone 541 Black comes with an organiser as well as a voice memo facility and is an endearing slider phone. Although having limited functionality, its price more than makes up for it.
