      I got my K508i a week ago and I can honestly say that this phone is great! I would recommend it over many phones. It is probably the best phone I've had the opportunity to use. Sure, it doesn't have BT but I don't need it and apart from that it does everything else you would want. Nokia's in the same price range don't come near it. This phone to me is a replacement for my LG G7100 - which to me has to be one of the worst camera/clam phones ever made and left a sour taste in my mouth. Even if the LG were reliable you soon realise how limited it was in every aspect compared to the 805i. When you take your time and compare the 805i to other models in the same price bracket it stands out. Even more expensive models offer less than this phone. The 805i offers Java, themes, the ability to create your own themes with software, IR connection to a PC or other mobiles, video recording, a decent camera (for a phone), java games, voice recorder, simple mp3 player, speaker phone, the ability to record phone calls and more. I found battery life to be good. I couldn't want any more in a phone. And most importantly - It does everything it claims to do reliably. If I had to say anything bad it would be that I agree with others on the camera shutter sound and would have liked the ability to set your own message alert tone. But, they are minor when you consider how good this is. 10 out 10 for my needs

          Soory I use K508i, i've bought this phone today. for the price, i think it is really worth it. compared to others with the same features, it is cheaper. Right ,.... the shutter was annoying but overall i think this is a really great phone. Hope,... the best i've ever had.

                    This phone menu is easy to use, the features are great (camera pic looks sharp, the recorded sounds can be use as ringtones, pretty good sound, speakerphone that can record the talk, and other nice features). Yes, the camera shutter sound is a little bit annoying. But overall, this phone is worthy to buy.

                        To make Recorded sound as ringtone:-
                        (1) Goto "Entertainment" - "Record Sound" (then record whatever sound u want. Ensure that the source of the sound is near to the phone).
                        (2) "Save" - "More" - "Rename" [rename the file if u want] - "OK"
                        (3) "More" - "Recorded Sounds" [there is list of recorded filenames. Go to the one that u renamed before.
                        (4) "More" - "Manage Files" - "Move to folder" - "Sounds" - Exit to the main by pressing "Enter" button 2 seconds.
                        (5) Go to "Settings" - "Sounds & Alerts" - "Ringtone" - then select the file u have transfered previously.

                            Hi...My current mobilephone is K508i, so far so good mobilephone. The VGA camera is nice (if you shot closer). Though i experienced colors adjustment in this phone. The price of this phone is $200 --Unlocked. I will bring this back home in US. Nice and handy phone. If comes to IRA-- compatible phone is siemens phone.

                                There is just one difference: in f500 there is'n any irritating sound when you take a photo! That's all :-)
