    eh, really?
    the phone doesn't ring & vibrate at the same time? i consider the feature important, too bad D500 doesn't support it. i'm tired of waiting, the phone has not yet launched in south east asia... pheew! :(

      Fairly decent fone.

      Samsung have always impressed me. They're a type of company that always bring out something new and innovative, and for that i give congratulations.

      However, why doesn't any of the samsung slides have vibrate/ring at the same time? I am aware that we can ring up our carrier, and have our ring time lenthened, but it would be so much easier if it were able to vibrate and ring at the same time. that way, if i cant feel the vibrate, im able to hear the ring, and vice versus.

      Not trying to nick pick the samsung genius.
      Keep bringing out awesome fones. And ill continue to buy them.

            This D-500 is the best in all Samsung's previous models.

              to be honest i don't really rate this phone because there are that many slide phones about it just gets boring watching another one come out

              the fact that the phone as got bluetooth and expandable memory is good i suppose but there is better phones out than this thats why i don't understand why it is so popular

                    No voice activated dialling - what's all that about! Lovely to have bluetooth but what good is a bluetooth headset when you have to pick up the phone to dial the number. Shame, really liked everything else about it!

                          Yes, its true in memory that this phone does not dissapoint. Compare the built in memory to many other phones and you will see a huge difference. Memory card slot though would have been a real bonus. But if you will be regularly using your pc to exchange data with the phone then its enough for you.

                                    To Stacey,
                                    Unfortunately, the Samsung D500 is only available with the silver outline on the Orange network. All other networks, e.g. O2 and T-Mobile only stock it in the full black colour. However, I currently have the D500 on an Orange contract but I highly recommend that you stick to O2 or another company because Orange tends to fiddle with their handsets, e.g. many menu options are disabled.
                                    Overall, this handset is very good (or excellent) and is far superior to most handsets on the market today. Just don't get it on an Orange contract.

                                    Hope this helps!

                                      Actually, both amounts of memory are theoretically correct! The D500 has 96Mb of SHARED memory, but 80Mb of FREE USER memory (free space). However, the preloaded video clips and MP3s that come with the phone CAN be deleted therefore the FREE USER memory can be increased to 96Mb!

                                      Hope this helps!
