    Hi peeps,

    I can't get active-flip to work - does the z510 support it? Eg. when you open the phone while ringing it answers the call, when you close it it hangs up..

    Also my battery life is pretty bad - is that because i've been using it so much?

    Please let this phone have active flip!

        @cassandra
        If I'm correct, U should use the volume 'button' on the side...

          I just got this phone yesterday. With the camera, when holding the phone and pointinh the lense towards yourself, the image is upside down. Does anyone know if/how you can flip it?

              There is a distinct different between the v3 and the v3i.. and There is even a Bigger Different between the V3(i)'s and the Z510.

              If you realised.. Z510 is a 3G and it's also the slimmest 3G phone ever... Good design though.

              The Camera Of the Z510 is rotatable while the V3(i)'s are Fixed...

              I agree it's a shame that the camera is only 1.3MP and the memory is not expandable.. But i reckon Samsung is just pulling off some Magic trick so they can do a something like samsung Z510i which has expandable memory and better camera quality..

              But oh wells.. i'm happy with what i have now!

                  What a dissapointment. The screen is really nice but the software sucks. Do I really need so many steps to send a message? I am now trying to use the bluetooth to pair to my other devices, terrible is all I can say. Nice looking package but don`t look too deep.

                    Hi I am very happy with this phone. It is stylish and has intuitive menus and shortcuts. The camera is very clear.

                    I wish the list of text messages in your inbox would show more than three at a time (although it shows the start of the message which is nice). I wish you could set ALL the text (menus and everything) to be smaller since the screen resolution is so high but it's okay as is.

                    The phone doesn't keep up with really really quick messaging either it seems. The predictive text engine is really good though.

                    Yeah I am really happy with it!

                        thanks for the info about speakerphone, yet another cool feature I didn't know about this phone.

                        As for the keys lighting up, the screen is so bright you don't need them to light up. And its not like this will be the first phone u ever own, so you should pretty much know where all the keys are anyway.

                            it looks like the keys on the keypad don't light up. is that true? i dont' have the phone but to all u users, how do you see the keys at night if they don't light up?

                                I saw videos from D600 in the PC screen. They are in a 352 X 288 resolution and looking amazing, without interrupts and very clear even in fast mooved scenes.
                                I read that Z510 has only a 176 X 144 video resolution. That makes me very sad. Why???

                                Anyway i like this pone for the design and it 's features and i think to buy it.
                                Can any one tell me about the video quality when is watched in the pc screen?
                                Maybe can someone send to me a (short) example video clip via e-mail?
                                Thanks

                                    The phone has a speakerphone - all you need to do while talking on the phone press the middle button and it will ask you if want the speakerphone ON.

                                    I hope this will help. This phone is awesome!!!

                                      " only annonying thing is the front screen doesn't stay on so you can't check the time without quickly flipping it open :-("

                                      you can turn the front display on by holding down one of the keys (side keys or the keys for music) for a couple of seconds. This way you can check the time without flipping open your fone :)
                                      The z510 is awesome! ...

                                        A few comments and some questions answered.

                                        For starters I've had this phone for 3 weeks now, and no probs whatsoever (can't say the same about my former SonyEricsson w550i which was riddled with software problems)

                                        To answer a few of the previous questions.

                                        This phone does NOT have expandable memory... but 140MB is ample for mp3s.
                                        This phone does NOT have speakerphone, but is by far the best phone i've ever used in a crowded place (club, pub, etc) very clear to hear voice, etc.
                                        This phone DOES ring and vibrate at the SAME TIME! Unlike a lot of old samsung phones which do not. And it also vibrates with a message tone.
                                        MP3s CAN be used as ringtones without any conversion. Just use the USB cable and you're away!
                                        Camera is only 1.3MP but is quite good (much better than the 1.3mp I had on my old SonyEricsson). Records video + sound aswell.

                                        To my knowledge you can't change the colour of the menus, but it seems fine to me anyway.

                                        I only have 2 issues with this phone so far :
                                        1: Cannot adjust volume of the alarm tone, the default tones that come with the phone are horrible. My solution was to add my own mp3 file that slowly increases in volume and use that as my alarm tone.
                                        2: I cannot find a way to install new game files on the phone. It doesn't recognise .jar or .jad or .zip files. If anyone knows if this is possible or of how to do this. I would be very happy to share the hundreds of games I have.
