The Nokia 5530 XpressMusic is a pretty small device. Heck its even way smaller than my ol’ Nokia N82 which I personally thought was a decent size itself, and its way smaller than the Nokia N97.
With that in mind, here are a couple size comparison pictures of the Nokia 5530 XpressMusic vs the Nokia N97.
Front View :
Here you can see that the 5530 XM is way smaller than the N97 both in terms of height and width. Of course the 5530′s Screen is also smaller.
The 5530 has all touch keys on the front, while the N97 has a hardware slanted Menu button. You’ll notice they’re both completely different designs too.
Both devices have a VGA front facing camera for videocalls, a proximity sensor and a light sensor on the front.
Back View :
The N97 has its 5 Megapixel Carl Zeiss Camera & Dual LED flash covered with a lens protector. The Nokia 5530 XM has a 3.2 Megapixel Nokia Brand Camera, with a single LED Flash with no lens protector.
At the lower right side of the 5530 is its Stylus hidden away.
Left view :
The N97 has its microUSB port (which is also used to charge the device) here on the left side. There’s also its sliding keypad lock switch, and both its stereo speakers at either end.
The 5530 has its MicroSD and SIM card port here which is covered with a large plastic slot.
Top View :
The N97 has its power button and 3.5mm standard audio jack (with TV-Out) here.
The 5530 XM has its power button here only.
Right View :
Both devices have their dedicated Camera Buttons here, along with a Zoom in/out (aka Volume Increase/Decrease) Key.
The 5530 XM also has its sliding screen/keypad lock switch here, in the middle.
Bottom View :
The N97 has a very minimalist look here with only a tiny slot for its mic.
The 5530 has its standard Nokia Charging port here, a MicroUSB port (which cannot be used to charge the device) and its 3.5mm Standard Audio port (without TV-out).
