- The good
- Soft-touch slider performs very smoothly
- Crystal clear tones
- Fun camera effects and frame
- The bad
- No choice of network
- Battery drains fast
- Keys are small and awkwardly placed Labyrinthine menus

Only if you've big bucks to unload or want to be among the few flashing a premium-priced phone.
- The good
- Distinct looks
- Slim form factor
- Durable stainless steel shell
- Scratch-resistant screen
- Two bundled batteries
- The bad
- Way too pricey
- Heavy
- Cramped four-way Navi pad with center key
- Mono headset
- Lo-res camera
Samsung D600
The D600 could be mistaken as the D500's identical twin, but under the hood Samsung has bumped up the camera resolution, increased the quality of the screen, and tweaked the phone's array of features, making a great phone even better. Video output, although innovative, will leave some dissapointed.
- The good
- 2-megapixel camera takes decent shots
- TV output for viewing photos and documents
- Bluetooth printing with PictBridge
- Bright and colourful display
- Quad-band 'world' phone
- The bad
- Poor resolution when outputting video
- Slightly larger than the D500
- Display is a fingerprint magnet
