I purchased this S500i in ice purple like 4 months ago. For people who are concerned with the keypad issue, it is a matter of how one presses the keys. I used text messaging on a regular based and so far it seems the buttons still haven't crack like it was sad. Seems that my fingers are small, so I can tell you that if you have smaller fingers, it is easier to text. Overall, the phone was very good in all aspect. I love the screen compared to my other samsung cell screen. Pictures are exceptionally clear. And best yet, you can make your own themes the way you like it. Everchanging theme is the best on this though. I leave it on that theme, cuz it changes to the seasons and time. Just like on New Year's Day when it displays fireworks. Definitely a phone to collect if you like SE phones.

Hello! I have this phone for 4 months now. Yes, it has nice themes and it looks great. And camera is great. But my keypad cracked for 3 times since I got it - it was already 2 times at the service for 3 weeks :(
Also, the whole phone makes weird sound when I press keys, it makes crackels like it' made of cheap plastic.
I'm not happy with it :(

Had the phone for about 6 months. all but one key is cracked and the # is actually cracked in half and had fallen apart. While the phone has nice features and looks great with the new lights on the side STAY AWAY FROM THIS PHONE! This is a very disappointing phone. Thought SE would do better.
