I got this phone a few weeks ago-aslong as you charge the phone for 16 hours when you first get it, the battery will last about 3 days. If you dont do this it will only last a day and a half every time you charge it. If you already have the phone and you haven't done it, let the battery run dead and then charge it for 16 hours.

I am really really curious to know the approximate battery life of this phone. A lot of the people are saying it is short but you never give an approximate idea of how long short is. I want to know how long the battery life is with all the functions(3G, bluetooth etc) turned on and when all the functions are turned off.

I bought tihs phone 2 days ago and i don't regret it. It is a very good phone and it makes my day even better...It is eays to use and the program which comes with the phone is easy to use( if you're into computers though)...The camera has 1, 0 mpixel and takes good photos.. The camera can also be used to make videos( with sound)...The mp3 player in the phone is also very good. It is easy to use and the sound is great...I do recommend this phone, it has all the features you want and it isn't too expensive... One importnant thing : Before using it the first time, you have to charge the battery for about 14 - 16 hours. If you don't do that the batteri life will be poor...thanks

David:
use the samsung software, download it from www.samsung.com if u don`t have the original cd
how to connect it: i prefer using an irda/bluetooth adapter

Ali:
so far i had no problems with nokia and motorola...

my opinion about Z500:
A nice one, as we got used to from samsung, but i would love it if it would have a 2MP camera (and a FM radio, my obsession) :)

Dear all of you
If you are planning to buy this mobile, DON'T!!!
This phone is not worth the price and i recommend to you guys to buy a samsung NV10 instead. The different between the 2 mobiles is that the samsung Z500 has the expandable memory. But the ZV 10 features are more stable and less problems and error than Z500.
I have used the 2 mobiles and NZ10 is a cheap 3G phone and perform better than Z500. (( load faster, Louder speaker, User friendly, and the screen colour seem to look beter than Z500, my opinions )

Install the PC Studio CD in your box and connect the USB cable to your phone

ALL 3G PHONES got a budget batteries. All of them are, because of the 3G service that it's using.
I rang vodafone and spoke to 3 different technicians, all of them said 3G phone batteries should only last about 1 to 2 days and it is OK TO CHARGE YOUR PHONE EVERY NIGHT. I am concern about the batteries life too but thats how it is.
Tips.
1.Turn your 3g service off.
2. Turn off the SUB LCD
3. Don't play your ms3 music at home, just use your PC to play it!!!

cheers

I assume the message memory is shared with the internal memory of the phone- so a hell of alot.. got to 300ish before i sent mine back to vodafone- there was a bug on the phone but got a replacement.

I highly doubt it can support word files, havent tried but i doubt it.

One thing for when you get the phone:

Charge for a full 16hours non-stop for the firt time, then let it fully discharge before you recharge. And to extend the battery life change from the 3g mode, and make sure blue tooth is turned off.

please i have a question that will determine whether i buy this phone or not:
does the bluetooth work with all types of phones (nokia, sony ericson, etc.)?
also how many SMS messages does the inbox fit?

Hi Chris,

The memory card you got will have a smaller version in it. You need to pull it out and that part will fit into your phone.

The bigger part is just the adapter, if you need to put it into the memory card reader that does not take the transflash size card.

Hope this helps
