Why buy the Tecno T530
- Long battery life for a basic phone: The 2400 mAh battery is removable, so you can carry a spare.
- Two SIM slots: Keep two lines in one handset, which helps if you use separate networks for calls and data.
- Built-in torch: The LED torch helps during power cuts or when you walk home after dark.
- FM radio and 3.5mm jack: Listen to radio without data, and plug in your own wired earphones.
- Expandable storage: The microSD slot lets you add music or files, since the internal storage is very small.
