Samsung SGH-500 - User Reviews

  • I don't know who's phone this was in the past. In October 2010, my grandpa found this phone in the attic of our house and gave it to me. When I powered it on, it had problems with the SIM card. My uncle fixed it for me and suddenly it worked. I took it with me to Melbourne, Australia in October 2010. My mum activated a SIM card for me, but I still had the same problem with the SIM. I thought that this was my nana's phone, but it wasn't my nana's first phone.

  • eh. nice phone with everything you really need for a phone anyway. what's really funny is that i dropped it about 3 times (not very hard) and the screen went blank. it still works, but the screen is just blank. so then i purposely threw it on the floor. the screen went on again. it's a pretty phone, but not durable what so ever.

  • The best designed mobile phone ever.It is so different from any other. Too bad that is no new version with mp3 player,calendar, voice memo and: real aluminium- not plastic. I would buy it momentally.

  • cool

  • I think that this model of samsung is a very nice phone.I myself am a owner of sgh-500 and I am very pleased with him.But my only problem is that the battery is broken and I have to recharge her very often but I am looking for A-100.

  • Battery performance is so poor.

  • what`s the price of this fhone?

  • The flip-up design is convinient and the phone has very distinguishable shape. Good menu structure and call logs. No need to lock the keys, they just cant be accedentaly pressed when flip is down. Too bad that the standby is only 50 hours.
