Vodafone 555 Blue is a low-price feature phone, aimed at emerging markets, optimized for use with Facebook.

If you take a look at the 555 Blue’s specifications, you’ll find a phone that’s much slower than 3Gwith an FM radio and Bluetooth but no wireless Internet access.

It has a 200 Mhz processor that is far too slow for smartphone operating systems but probably fine for a feature phone. The 555 Blue only has 40 MB of system memory and a Micro SD slot for storage (up to 16GB).
