Battery life is very poor - 2 days at the most I found.

I have used that phone in work and I could say its allright. It has good sharp large display and the keyboard is good for typing too. It has all functions like todays phone have.Menu is also OK. In overall i should recommend it as good and elegant phone but dont expect something superior.

i've had this phone for about a 2 years. It's pretty great but the keypad is a little hard to use, making texting a bit annoying cuz u keep writing the wrong words especially if u're using t9. In spite of this, i still love this phone to death.

I think i might buy this phone,
$220 off the techoni website,
But anyone willing to sell their's?
I was also wondering if the Z510 supports M4A files?
Because I would really like that as I use downsized M4A files on my Sony Ericsson Z610i which i'm getting really tired of.
And does anyone know of an app that downsizes the MP3's without losing too much quality,
To sizes about 1MB for a 4 minute song?

Thanks,,
Daniel

i used this phone for about 6 to 8 months until i brought my nokia 5700 xpress music few weeks ago ... and i gave up the z 510 ... but i must say that the z 510 is a very pretty and a good phone ... the display is way better than i expected it to be its brightness is very good and the menus are very user friendly but it seems the firmware cannot be updated ...

the outside of this phone is metal i guess and painted in black using some kind of a paint ... but this is not good so u better not put it in pockets with coins and sharp things etc. ... also dont accept this phone to do what a smart phone does most of the java or other applications and games cannot be installed ... the mp3 player software in it is very good and powerfull ...

also it got an inbuilt 3d amp to make ur mp3s more louder when playing music without the headphones ... but it use the hearing speaker of the phone as the sound output which i dont like much ...

the battery life of the phone is quite good but not as i expected ... if u start playing music and videos all the time the battery drains very very quickly ... its the same when ur using the video recording mode ...

the rotating 1.3 mega pixel 3g cam is very very nice and it does very very good for a 1.3 mega pixel it maybe surprising in photo shooting ... the flasher is good too not bad at all ...

the keypad is very well built and the external mp3 keys and the external cover display is awesome ...

one thing i hated the most in this phone is that it does not have an external memory slot ... i was very angry with it becuz of that ...

anyway i have to say its a pretty good phone but its not so good as an mp3 player or a video player ... ill give it 8 out of 10 ... and the phone is now outdated ... but if u get it for a less prize go buy it it wont disappoint u at all ... also i recommend u going for this phone than the motorola v3i ...

i used this phone for about 6 to 8 months until i brought my nokia 5700 xm few weeks ago ... and i gave my z 510 to my father ... this phone is slim and pretty ... got so many functions but not the memory card slot or else u cant play videos in full screen rather than that the phone rocks ... i recommend this phone for anyone who needs a cheaper phone with some what good functions ... its display is very very colorful and very good in brightness ... the external mp3 player keys are very nicely designed ... the rotating 1.3 mega pixel cam is very very good on its quality plus it supports video recording , 3g and photo shooting modes ... sometimes u may think that it looks like moto v3 but its not trust me its way better than the v3 ... its firmware cannot be updated since it ain't a smart phone but its menus are very user friendly ... if ur trying to buy a moto v3 i think its better to give it up and go for this phone ... as i know both of the phones are same in there prize so go for the samsung z 510 not the v3 ...

I have had this fone for over a yr. Its a great fone w/ cheap price. Even though, it is kind of similar to Mot V3, it's a lot better: last long battery (mine is up to 2-3 days), nice performance, cute and easily-used mp3 player, small and slim phone, decent screen size ..... You should get this phone if you are looking for an affordable and functional phone.

I've had this phone for 2 years and except for the lack of a memory card slot, there isn't a better phone in the price range. I have had no trouble with this phone, and even though I have dropped it a few times, it had no affect on it at all. I am soon to update my phone as the plan I am on allows for a new phone every 2 years, but there isn't anything out there that comes close to this phone for ease of use,(easy to push buttons for bigger fingers) and reliability, I may have to hang on to this one till Samsung bring out an updated version. This is a great phone!

Is the white version of this phone pure or silvery white? I can't really tell.

awesum fone. got it in white. for all you people who think its firmware is faulty, guess again. it is ur service provider who adds on the excess data and programs to ur fone to link it to the network. all samsung firmware is tested over and over again to eliminate faults. if it screws up alot and u got it off the internet it is probably parallel imported and not built for ur network.

I had this phone for about a year and i always had problems with the buttons freezing and not letting me go to other options so i had to press the end buttons a couple of times and it would let me back into the phone but then last week the biggest problem i had was the main screen went blank and it didn't come back so now it's at Samsung getting fixed i liked the phone but i found it was a bit harder to operate unlike other phones i had in the past so i'm going back to Nokia again.
