Philips Xenium X520
Release year: 2009
Philips Xenium X520 is a Quad-band mobile phone, with a 2 MP camera that allows video recording. The novelty of this phone is that it can also be powered by an AAA battery, which in case of emergency allows the mobile device to function for another 2 and a half hours of talk time and one week in stand-by. It is possible to take photographs, add text, music or speech and create a message to be easily sent as an MMS attachment. The Bluetooth technology it is equipped with allows the transfer of voice and data (e.g. images and video) between two devices equipped with a Bluetooth solution, all without wires. It is equipped with expandable memory (microSD) for ample storage capacity for applications, FM radio with RDS, Lunar calendar, WAP 2.0/xHTML and Voice memo.
