    The Samsung D500 is a really good phone I like it very much.. the one and only bad thing is it only has 96 mb to share between photos, video, MMS, MP3 files and doesn't have a card slot that I know off. It's very durable and you have the sound mate mini external speaker which is good.

    My Samsung D500 phone has been in the wash and it has taken lots of batter, but it still works perfectly......

    The Samsung D500 is the greatest phone so far, beats any new phones as well. Its great, simple easy to use and you can drop it a million times and it will still work, and doesn't dent easily either, best ever phone, lasted me 4 years and still going.

    I just thought I would let people who are thinking of buying a second hand D500, just how good they really are. I use mobile phones as a prime communication tool during my normal working day and not as a fashion item or toy and I can honestly say that I have used in excess of 15 to different models of phones over the years and this is by far the best.I have just had to change to Sony W910i which if you read my review on that you will see that I am not impressed.Anyone thinking of buying a Samsu ...

    All up? I love it! Disregard all those knockers who won't be satisfied until a Samsung employee feeds them grapes while another dials the numbers for them. It's sturdy, stylish, feature-packed and a few admittedly quite bewildering shortcomings aside (WHY CAN'T IT RING AND VIBRATE AT THE SAME TIME??????) I love it to bits and you probably will too.

    Cool look, easy to hold and navigate with, takes pics you can enhance and change, videos, cool ringtones and songs. It's a cool phone. (I know this isn't really review topic but... can anyone tell me the MP3 song on ot that isn't the sunshine baby one? I renamed it and now i want it on my ipod, so if anyone could tell me the song...

    Everything else about it is great. It looks good, feels good, is durable and solid, good reception. Unlike the D900 the screen does not crack when you sign on it a bit to heavily. Great stuff, more of these please Samsung.

    I love my mobile, just one problem. It wont turn on any more. I don't know whether this is because I need a new battery or just a new phone, I have had my mobile for quite a while now and have dropped it a load of times in water and such things but it still worked!

    When I first got this phone I was ecstatic. I thought it was sexy, small, and would last me for ages. The phone's interface is an extremely basic one consisting of nice clean and tidy menus and buttons but with no room for personalisation. You could change the wallpaper, however, it had a tendency to crop the pictures. It is easy to find your way around the phone and it is pretty fast so does tend to keep up with you when using it. The camera, even by today's phone standards, isn't too bad and w ...

    It's now perhaps quite obvious that I speak in very high esteem of both Samsung and this particular model. The design, reliability, service and quality are, so far, unmatched to me. If you want a flashy phone more for the Media and ''DJ's out there amongst us, well... there's probably better, but for everybody else? Go for it.

    Basically, if you want a smart, neat phone which can last you for a few years then this phone is ideal. There aren't many clever or inventive features to this phone apart from the screensaver which has a brilliant way of showing if you have had a message etc. This particular feature makes this phone twice as good. The camera and video is impressive quality and can be used as a normal camera for going to sport events etc. When I went to see Chelsea play Fulham I videoed Drogba's goal and it cam ...

    I wouldn't ever have a Samsung again and I definitely would recommend this to anyone. Get a Sony Erricson instead you can't go wrong. :D

    I have owned the Samsung D500 mobile phone for about 3 months now. It is a good all round phone with good memory, excellent quality 1.3 Mega Pixels camera with Zoom and video player, excellent voice recorder that can record for 1 hour, the colour display is also top quality, and there is enough memory to store loads and loads of pictures and a very good MP3 player to listen to your tunes on. It offers excellent style sliding action, and among other phones the Samsung D500 is top of the range ...

    Firstly, a lot of good things have been justifiably said about this phone. Now it's become so popular, prices have dropped online, so it's a real bargain. Since the good points are probably so well known, I'll focus on the points that are making me change from this to another phone. Firstly, the user interface is not particularly intuitive. For instance, when starting a text message, you never know whether it's going to start on normal text mode, or predictive. Additionally, when you've finis ...

    This phone was great when I first had it, it was stylish and had everything I needed in a phone, with a great camera and easy access to everything on the display, on the screen. I found it very easy to use and the next phone i get will be a Samsung phone probably the D900.

    I have had the phone for almost a year now and its the best phone I have ever had, I must have dropped it a least 30 times and it still works perfectly well! Also, everything is very easy to find and it has a massive memory for videos and songs. All in all, an amazing phone!

    The Samsung D500 is a really gorgeous phone. I love it soooo much, and I have had loads of other phones so I would know. Honestly, this phone is so lovely I would choose it over practically any other phone. It is way better than its more popular sister (The Samsung E370), because the E370 breaks so easily (the slider part). I would totally recommend this phone. And Orange Rocks!!

    The Samsung D500 has good screen quality and memory, however, hard to find songs, the torch, etc.! This phone is mint and is recommended to everyone. It's the best phone I've had yet!!!!
