Do you want a phone?which should have all features and should take you ahead of all these other phones like 7610, 6600?
Then go for the ULTIMATE D500,SAMSUNG this time comes up with a phone that will Rock the city,D500 is samsung's first phone with BLUETOOTH,MP3 PLAYER and SURROUND SOUND.It's not a SMART PHONE but still WONDERFUL GADGET.
THE OUTLOOK AND DISPLAY
SAMSUNG D500 reminds me of E800.Like many other SAMSUNG phones, the D500 has a slide-up design, which enables a large screen to be placed within a compact phone design.It has a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels and 262k colours.
D500 has one of the best resolution that I have seen in any phone.The display is very COLOURFUL and STYLISH.The operating system is very simple to use and it is faster compared to D410.
OUTLOOK AND DISPLAY 8/10
THE CAMERA AND VIDEO RECORDING
SAMSUNG D500 comes up with 1.3 MEGAPIXEL camera,the Camera is Crystal clear(as u expect a 1.3 megapixel to be).It also has 8x Zoom and FLASH. FLASH is very good and quite helpful to us. It has Video recording upto 1 hour(with 4 x zoom). Like all Other Samsung phones video-recording is clear, MULTI-SHOT is not there in D500.The night mode is Quite clear.D500 also provides option of Capturing Pictures and sending by MMS.
Overall,CAMERA is breathtaking,8x zoom is very helpful to Capture even minor details,video recording is stunning
CAMERA AND VIDEO RECORDING 10/10
ENTERTAINMENT
SAMSUNG D500 has a MP3 PLAYER(the look of mp3 player is superb)MP3 PLAYER also plays AAC files.D500 also supports VIDEO STREAMING.It comes with 3 pre-installed games and also supports JAVA Games.It doesnt contains themes but has Colour schemes.We cant download any more colour schemes from GPRS.
There is no doubt that SAMSUNG D500 provides pure entertainment for its USERS,But there are no themes,just those simple colour schemes.UUUUURRRRFFFF
ENTERTAINMENT 9/10
CONNECTIVITY
D500 is SAMSUNG'S first phone with BLUETOOTH.It also has INFRARED and USB PORT.It can also get connected to PCs, printers very easily.The user cant demand for anything more at least at that PRICE.
BLUETOOTH is of high quality and IR is as always good,But D500 is 1st phone of Samsung that has USB CABLE.Overall,Connectivity is OUTSTANDING.
CONNECTIVITY 10/10.
SOUND AND MEMORY
The sound is stereo-type(surround).The memory is 96 MB which can easily save 15-20 MP3 tracks or 1 hour video/audio recording.D500 has the largest memory compare to any samsung phone,There is no memory card Option,but there is no use of memory card when INTERNAL memory is 96 MB.The ring tones are Simple and clear.
Overall,D500's Sound ROCKS!!!and memory is very high and will be helpful to professionals like me!!!!!
SOUND AND MEMORY 9/10
OTHER FEATURES
It also provides features like SMS(that is quite common in all phones)but it also has MMS and EMS.It also has 7 regional languages.The weight is about 99 grams and it quite lighter to other phones.The battery life is about 7 hours.
I havent seen EMS in any other BRAND and Battery life is very good.Overall,these features are very useful to people who want to live LARGER THAN LIFE!!!
OTHER FEATURES 7/10
ON THE WHOLE
ON THE WHOLE, D500 comes with loads of handy features and stylish enhancements, Plus superb still imaging and video capabilities upto 1 hour will keep you at the forefront of imaging technology.The price is about 21,000 which is very low compared to S700i,6630 and 7710.D500i will Basically appeal to Teenagers(like me) because of its STYLISH LOOKS and SUPERB FEATURES.
