CNET Asia Review
Very good
The good: Proven clamshell design; lightweight and well-featured; ample connectivity options; reasonably priced; TransFlash expansion memory. View score
The bad: No unique features; looks nearly identical to the SGH-E700; operates sluggishly at times.
The bottom line: The Z500 has proven to be a solid, dependable 3G phone that's equipped with a good range of features including dual onboard cameras, MP3 playback, Bluetooth and TransFlash expansion slot.

Supreme 3G functionality in a well tested design
Feb 4, 2006Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Sturdy clamshell design, full featured 3G functions, beautiful screen resolution and color rendering
Cons: lacks the accesibility of features as seen in other brands
Opinion:
The beautifully crafted design is well tested from previous Samsung clamshells. Very sturdy and compact. The main display is brilliant and renders pictures very clearly. Keypad layout is very comfortable even for big hands. Transflash memory expansion, blutooth and 3G are well integrated into the software giving this model a real edge in the 3G arena.
Superb

Excellent features, easy to use, if the battery only lasted as much as any other regular cell phone... it would be perfect.
Still the lightest and hottest 3G phone

She got all kind of connectivity options you need!!!
Light and compact, also easy to drop :) Battery will heat up once turn on video streaming > 1 min and battery bar drop as well. Typically need to recharge daily to avoid no batt :) Used to be a Symbian 60 user, really felt something was missing after switching to this phone, just like ex-Win 95 user using MS-DOS!
