        If we are to talk about battery... I am very pleased becouse I talk about 2 hours a day, I use the calendar and events very much, I spend about 5-10 minutes on wap a day,and in this situation my battery turns empty in about 3-4 days.

                        Hi all. I am using K500 for last one year.By exploring it fully and taking this phone to extreme limits, I can draw following conclusion which can help you decide if you want to buy it or not.

                        Plus Points:
                        Excellent camera, Good looks, bright screen, very user friendly, good mp3 playback, camera dust shutter, crystal clear recording, good WAP browser, excellent IrDA

                        Minus Points:
                        Congested keypad,keys get deunct due to heavy moisture, resets during WAP browsing, camera shutter sound, often wrong entries in dialled numbers list, less internal memory, no shortcuts to change profile or settings.

                                        I had this phone before, but now using K750i. K500 is a cool phone, i like the design- juz tht it is not really turgid and hangs alot too. The Joystick is the worst of all, after just 2 months of purchase, it could not respond. No matter how hard u move the joystick, nothing happens. Secondly is the craftsmanship. The silver area around the screen can easily torn off - mine is all gone after 4 months. The 'QuickShare' sticker at the bottom fell off easily.. sigh, its a good design but shame on some functions and especially the craftsmanship. It also lacks of Memory (Not enough for songs if u take 50 or more snapshots). The camera on the other hand is alright for a phone in tht class (i thought it was excellent bfr i got the K750, but still good for the phone!) The sounds are good, but none of these new SE ringtones (midi) can outbeat the previous Z600 ringers.
                                        Overall, its a good money-saving phone. But if SE just change the Joystick to a normal 4-pad navi-keys, i would still be using it. Good phone (design, functions) but bad craftsmanship (Keys, >>joystick
