Small, light and easy
Easy to carry. Pleasing to hold. The Z520i is a clamshell mobile phone with character. When the phone's open, the keys are clear and well spaced to make text input easy, and the 65,536-colour screen gives clarity and crispness to images, video and other content.

Match your mood
Z520i Style-Up™ Covers are exchangeable front and back covers carefully designed to express your style and taste. They come in several colours, and the surfaces range from a sandy feel to a smooth tactile experience.

Light up
When your Z520i rings or a message comes in, impressive light effects signal what's happening. These are hidden mini lights programmed to display light patterns in various sequences. You can also dedicate a specific light pattern to a friend in your phone book.

External features
A discreet VGA camera is positioned just below the 1" external colour screen to make taking pictures quick and easy. Up top, a built-in loop antenna also serves as a stylish hand strap loop.

Quick and easy camera
This must be the easiest camera around. One press on the camera button, and you're ready to shoot and send. Without opening the phone, you can line up your subject in the external display and take your picture. Then flip open the phone and use the image the way you want.

Messaging – say it in colour
Multimedia messaging is sending a real feel of where you are. Take a picture of where you are and who you're with. Record the sounds around. Add a short video clip and send an irresistible invitation. Come on over.

See, hear and know who's calling
Pictures of your friends can be added to any contact in your phone book, and when they call their picture appears in full colour on the external screen. You see who's calling before you open the phone. To make the effect more impressive, add a Z520i light pattern and a special ringtone.

Style up and express
The Z520i offers lots of ways to customise your phone to express how you feel, who you are and what you want to say. Exchangeable Style-Up™ covers (front and back) are an effective way to give your Z520i a makeover. Newness is nice. You can also change display themes and wallpapers whenever you want.

New York Nights – success in the city
The Z520i's star game is the popular New York Nights by Gameloft™ – a lifestyle game centred around some active outgoing people in New York. In the game you can create a virtual lifestyle for yourself in New York, and interact with several exciting characters. Be one of them. Enjoy success in the city.

Music gets you noticed
