One of the key features of the ASUS P526 is the way it can utilize Windows Live to integrate contacts so that users can see who is (and who isnt) online at any given time. Users can then share photos and voice clips through instant messengers or e-mail. They can also use the P526 to keep connected to their friends and online communities via blog updates or even upload mobile photo albums with photos taken by the P526s camera – keeping in touch with friends has never been easier.

Users of the P526 can also enjoy many convenient features with the integrated Windows Live Smart Dial feature. They can automatically pull up contacts when they start typing a first or last name with the P526s keypad. Users can also utilize the search bar that is located just beneath the current time and launch web searches without having to open the browser – making web searches that much more user-friendly.

ASUS P526 is equipped with Quad-band EDGE for faster audio/video streaming, GPS Navigation abilities and contains a host of useful ASUS exclusive software. This phone is also able to merge Outlook with Windows Live contacts, and have users’ Hotmail or Windows Live mails pushed down automatically.
