Get a big card up front. You cannot move installed apps between SD cards, you have to move them to the internal memory and then out.

You may be able to use some form of SD card clone software for this, though.

Would you say there's any truth to that?
I don't really notice the screen quality that much. The screen quality is better than the more expensive Samsung that it replaced. I use it as a phone, and as an eReader for those rare times I don't have my Kobo with me. I don't watch video on it or play games.

And, of course the quality is going to be less, it is a cheaper phone. It really depends on what you are going to be using it for.

What I found interesting is that the reviews I read about the 530, before I bought it, never mentioned how it operated as a phone.
