BEIJING, Nov. 19, 2009 (PRNewswire-Asia) -- Himfr.com, one of China's leading B2B search platforms with more than 30 B2B industry websites to its name, forecasts mobile phone price trends as 2009 draws to a close. According to previous months' mobile phone prices, Himfr predicts that as 2009 draws to a close, the price of mobile phones will continue to drop.

Nokia 5530XM -- Down to 1,550 Yuan

The Nokia 5530XM is now a very popular mobile phone that saw its price drop to 1,600 yuan in November. Himfr believes that by the end of this year this popular phone will have a good enough price to attract consumers, with an estimated price that will drop to around 1,550 yuan.

The Nokia 5530XM has a 2.9-inch, 16 million color TFT screen with a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels that supports full-screen touch. The phone also supports WiFi and the WAPI wireless Internet access. The operating system is a Symbian OS V9.4 system S60 V5.0 touch interface, which is the same as the 5800XM. The machine also comes with a 3.2 million-pixel camera with auto-focus, and is equipped with an LED flash but image quality is mediocre.

Himfr Comments:

The Nokia 5530XM with WiFi, from the appearance, is not much different from the 5800XM, although in the hardware configuration is much smaller when compared with the 5800XM. But in music aspects it is not inferior to the 5800XM, and the phone has fell below the 1,700 yuan mark, making it suitable for a variety of buyers.

Nokia N97 -- Down to 3,200 Yuan

The Nokia N97 has seen a recent decline in popularity, in part thanks to the launch of the N97mini, and the prices have seen ups and downs before, but now the price reduction is in an irreversible trend. It is estimated that by the end of the year prices will have reduced to even lower, resting at around 3,200 yuan.

The Nokia N97 uses a side-slider design, and the front is equipped with a 3.5-inch, 16 million color touch screen with a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels, resulting in a highly effective display. The phone is equipped with a Symbian OS v9.4 operating system and touch interface for S60 V5.0, allowing for a more convenient operation. At the same time, the phone has a built-in memory of 32GB, and also supports a 16GB micro SD card expansion. The built-in camera has 5 million pixels, and the largest identified rate can shoot 2584 x 1938 pixel photos.

Himfr Comments:

The Nokia N97 prices have already begun to show signs of loosening, and Himfr believes that with the mini's price also beginning to drop, the N97's price will decline in future.
