Samsung D500

Advantages: Quality camera, good memory and easy to use.
Disadvantages: None (that i can think of)

...Samsung D500 Well the Samsung D500 is quite an awesome phone; it has the ability to do pretty much whatever you want well excluding things like making a cup of tea of course. It has so much that you can do. There are thousands of people who have bought one of these phones, it can be used as a personal phone for yourself but there are also lots of companies out there who supply them to their employees because they are such good phones. I used to have one of these phones before I upgraded to a D600 which I will also be writing a review about. I had no trouble what so ever using this phone, and it allowed me to do everything I needed to, at the time it was the top of the range phone and I was quite chuffed with the value for money because it's such a great phone. Here are all of the features that can be used with the phone: •...

Samsung D500 Mobile Phone

Advantages: Small, has many features
Disadvantages: Screen, Can be a little fiddly

...environment, then this can lead to you missing a number of calls, or not notice you have messages until long after you received them. All in all, the D500 is a good phone, that boasts a lot of features all of which are squished into a small and compact device. The build quality has proved to be excellent, and I have received no problems from using it what so ever. The battery life is long enough that you can make numerous, lengthy phones calls and leave it on for long periods of time and not have to keep recharging it every other day. The signal quality is always well above average (although this obviously would depend on location and network), and the features allows the phone to become more than just a phone (mp3 player, organiser, alarm clock, calculator etc etc). I don't know if I would actually get another D500 if I were to loose...

Review of Samsung SGH D500

Samsung D500

Advantages: Easy use for all functions
Disadvantages: Poor camera quality

...The Samsung D500 is a reliable phone which does everything a standard phone should do. The camera is quite decent but the pictures can look dull. It has a great memory and holds well over 100 messages and loads of photos. When writing a message you have the predictive text function and the ability to send the same text to multiple people. My one issue with the text messaging is on the send options if you choose to send only and not save if the the message fails you have to retype it out again. There is a clear memory status so you know how much space you have left. From my experience the battery lasts a good three days without having to be charged up depending on use. Due to the flip up top you are protected from dialing numbers by accident. Overall this phone in my opinion this phone is a good product that is durable and will be...

Samsung's Neat Little Netbook

Advantages: Good performance, Good connectivity options, Good webcam, 160GB HDD, Upgradeable
Disadvantages: Not very good accessories, Picks up Fingerprints, Weird button under touchpad

...After my white Asus Eee PC 1000H got stolen, I decided to replace it with a black Samsung NC10. The Asus and this Samsung are what is known as a netbook. It?s sort of a small, low cost laptop to let you surf the net, while you?re out and about. I bought it off Dixons.co.uk for £322 in December 2009 (had a 5% off coupon) but it?s going for around £310 at the moment in most places. CHOICES The NC10 is Samsung's first stab at the netbook market and they?ve done a blinding job of it. I believe it even won an award for it. The NC10 comes in three flavours, those being black, blue and white. I chose the black as it looks prettier. The white one also looks great but I figured that it would start to pick up dirt and go a bit black, especially the keyboard and touchpad. The white version has a matte lid so doesn't pick up...

Review of Samsung NC10

SAMSUNG D500 Mobile Phone

Advantages: Easy to use, Excellent camera, mp3 player,
Disadvantages: tends to slide open when taking out of pocket, no option to add more memory.

...This is an updated review of my Samsung D500 mobile phone. I have had my Samsung for about 8 months now and feel I have good enough experience of it now, to tell others about it. The phone itself is a slide action phone with a 262,144 TFT colour screen?.this just means the screen is very clear and precise. You can even change the colour (skin) of the screen I will go into more detail of that later. The casing of my phone is a dark grey and charcoal two tone effect but a friend of mine has the exact same phone and hers is black casing and I have since seen it in silver too, I prefer the black personally, it just looks more stylish. I got my phone free on the Orange network when I signed up for a one year contract, but you can buy it for varying prices on a pay and go tariff. It pays to shop around. ***Features*** •...

Review of Samsung SGH D500

Samsung D500

Advantages: Nice handset, especially in Vader black, loaded with everything currently available
Disadvantages: A little too big(?), incompatiable with BMW bluetooth car kit, charging cap / cover

...music etc will eat away the battery life, but if used sensibly you could achieve a standby time of over a week and actual useful talktime of several hours. Charging time - takes next to no time for a full charge. Build quality of the phone is excellent, nice smooth sliding mechanism, solid build, only problem I had with the phone was the plastic cap for the charging plug, it has a nice sliding cap for the "add on" speaker why not for the charging point on the base of the phone - *doh*. Just a word of note, the phone is a pain with the OEM BMW bluetooth car kit, it refuses to transfer the phone book and fails to "ring" - an issue I think is more with the BMW car kit then the phone. Unfortunately this was the primary reason I needed the phone, as a result my lucky sister has inherited my sim free D500, with me landing a old (yet BMW...

samsung d500

Advantages: slewek design,easy to use and free speaker included to play your music
Disadvantages: not very robust

...i had this phone for about a year before it was stolen and i have to say this was my favourite ever phone.I originally picked it for its slide design and the fact it was not too expensive and had all the essential i needed. I paid about 139.99 for this phone from the carphone warehouse and it came with charger,headphones,free attachable speaker for music and a software cd so i could load music on the phoneI originally had the grey coloured d500 which i found to be a problem as scratches and paint damage seemed more obvious that on those on the black version.Overall i think that if you want a phone thats simple to use yet stylish then this is the phone for you.The start up menu can be entered using the menu button from which you can then navigate yourself round the phone.It has all the up to date essentials including a good camera...

Review of Samsung SGH D500

Samsung D500 a MUST have!!

Advantages: Small, elegant, smart and cool!
Disadvantages: none really apart form battery life is a bit of a pain

...bill. The battery life is a bit shorter than a nokia but I constantly remind myself to put my mobile on charge every night so I don't get caught short on my battery running out. Sometimes you have to be careful when phone in your bag/pocket, as it has answered a phone call before I have got to it where I have pulled it out of my bag quickly. I soon resolved this by taking off any key answer, you have to actually press the answer key now to answer it. This solved my problem anyway! I think this is a fantastic phone and would def recommend it to anyone. It has changed me and I was always a NOKIA girl before, but now I think Samsung is in the running! I found this phone very easy to use, very easy to navigate around keypad. The functions on the menu are very straight forward so easy to work your way round phone and know what you...

Review of Samsung SGH D500

Samsung but smaller

Advantages: Very compact and lightweight, excellent value for money, great design with brilliant screen
Disadvantages: No dvd drive but this is to save on weight and you can pick up an external one for reasonable

...Having previously had a laptop my wife recently decided to buy a new computer for herself as she felt she was not taking her laptop with her due to size and weight and so decided to opt to pick up the Samsung NC10 netbook. So you may have noticed that this is a netbook and be wondering what this exactly means...a netbook is a smaller, lighter weight laptop that is simply designed to handle internet browsing, e-mail and office software. The question I was asked by my wife before she picked this little gadget up was would this be able to play games? The answer is yes but of a limited variety as this is not designed with the same level of specs in as a normal pc or laptop (you would also need to purchase a cd or dvd drive for if you are looking at playing games that use a cd). Now down to the actual netbook itself...the Samsung is...
