The Motorola VE538 is a compact and relatively inexpensive 3G mobile phone that has pretty good features for a phone of this price. Shaped like a chocolate bar, this is a really compact, lightweight handset. Its small size and rounded shape make it fit well in the palm of your hand.
However, although its size is noticeably small, the VE538 still feels strong and durable. It also won’t slip out of your hands, as an etched circular pattern on the rear battery cover makes it easy to grip.
The Motorola VE538’s layout is nothing too flash, but still more than you’d expect. The phone comes with quite a large display, especially considering the total size of the handset, and has a raised keypad plus five-way navigational pad. The outside of the phone doesn’t have any buttons, excluding the usual volume control keys usually found there.
