                    I wouldn't suggest this phone to anyone because it just has too many problems.

                    First off, what they say about the keys are true. They break (snap in half) fairly easily if you aren't careful with pressing them.

                    I might just be an idiot, but I've tried looking a bunch of times and the phone does not seem to have a zoom feature for the camera... which really sucks. It is only able to zoom in a certain mode (if I remember correctly) where you take multiple shots or something. Plus, it's only 2.0 megapixels.

                    I bought the phone in August 2007 and the phone has gone bonkers on me and won't even turn on, and I've only had it for about 5-6 months.

                    So I would strongly suggest investing in a better phone than this one, unless you are not very picky about the camera and are buying it for aesthetic reasons.

                    So in the end, I think that people should consider buying another

                          To Farah: don't buy this phone, you'll be sorry after :( It's really good looking phone, but that is all. My keypad has been broken for the third time now. I have S500i for 5 months now, and (when I calculate it) - it has been at the service for 3 months! Buy something else, please...

                                  hi.. S500 users..
                                  just a question.. this phone supports AAC music files right?
                                  My friend has S500 phone, but when I passed an AAC music file via bluetooth (btw my phone is nokia), her phone cant recognize it as music file. it goes directly to "OTHERS" folder..and the music player cant recognize and play it..
                                  please help..

                                    I just recently got one for a close friend and so far it seems to be a great phone, the only problem i have with it is that it doesn't come with a built in flash, which is something i forgot to check before buying it since flash seems pretty standard with the good SE phones. being an owner of a k800 the no flash thing bothers me to the point that i would not have bought it if i knew beforehand.
                                    other than that the phone's great, nice display, i noticed that after i changed the time and date in the setup that the theme background and led lights changed colors, and everything that's expected of SE phones are in there in terms of features.
                                    so i actually think that the phone is better OS wise than my k800, a better camera and a flash would've made this phone gold to me.

                                        Hey there i've had this phone for about 6 months now and its great my keypad still works perfectly and all the functions are great you guys should all check to see the manufacture date of the phone, the ones made from week 28 and on are not supposed to have problems, as a result mine is actually a week 30:)
