Reviewed by Zoe Gower on 12/02/2010This phone is the best phone ive had yet, with a 8 mega pixel camera with 9x zoom and has all the qualitys you would want on a phone, such as a GPS , internet, radio large memory and much more! i recomend you get this phone :-) but it does have letdowns such as poor battery life and it freezes once and again. but overall i do love my phone xx Rating: Reviewed by Duncan on 03/02/2010 Just an update following my comments in November 2008 a few weeks after first getting the phone. It worked perfectly until last June when it froze and wouldn't reboot. By that time the dust was getting into the screen but otherwise no problems. The phone was replaced under warranty in 3 days (thank you Carphone warehouse) and as I sync it with the computer on a regular basis, none of my data was lost. The new handset is now 8 months old and looks brand new, no dust and no problems. Upgrade time coming up. what next? Rating: Reviewed by michael /london on 28/01/2010 Charmaine.Same problem. Reception totally and utterly useless. Returned to car phone warehouse four times.After new software installed each time, still the same problem. Do NOT buy this phone.Especially at C.P.W. After paying cash,for faulty goods no way will they consider replacing handset.i8510 rubbish.Ever been mugged!ADVICE my friends AVOID c/p/w. Rating: Reviewed by sonsaa on 19/01/2010 i bought it 2 months ago...so i like it because of multifunction phone and apperance... in other hand, battery life is a big problem that we let down it Rating: Reviewed by michael finn on 18/01/2010 reception when receiving incoming calls very poor. returned to carphone warehouse 5 times. still no better. expect more from £400 phone. Rating: Reviewed by STE on 15/01/2010 I Hate this phone, which has been nothing but trouble to me. It's slow, it says it's 8g memory is full with 25 orinary music tracks and a couple of videos on it, the camera is vey unresponsive, the usb input broke and now i have to use an external charger, and tons of dust got under the scren and I hardly carry i in my pocket. A definite n no from me. Rating: Reviewed by V on 15/01/2010 How I loved this phone! I used it for not quite a year and if only it had had a Xenon flash I would still be using it and probably until it would fall to bits! My previous phones had been Nokia N-series ones and this one works in the same way - only better. It made for a fantastic all round personal organiser and I loved it for that! Schedules, tasks and reminders at your fingertips and the best thing: reminders would be right 'in your face' where for somebody with my poor memory they need to be! The reason why I'm giving it only 4 stars is the dust under the screen problem. It doesn't impair things too badly but is annoying all the same. Seems like the design people weren't quite on the ball on that one! Altogether though (out of a fair few!) it has been my all time favourite phone! Rating: Reviewed by Quentin C on 07/01/2010 This is a good phone but gradually, u cant charge it properly, has to be at an angle :S, had that sorted for awhile now n its doin it again.... like most ppl have commented, mines did have dust behind the screen but got rid of it wen it got the chargin bit fixed.. might need to look for another 1 soon like.... as i cant charge it properly just now!! so annoyin! i would recommend this phone if it wasnt for it to b weird at chargin the fone and dust gatherin behind the screen... Rating: Reviewed by shahnawaz hussain on 05/01/2010 well frds i m just a little confused, let me used this handset for some more weeks then only i can grade this phone properly. Battery life is the biggest problem at the movement just visited all comments who all r saying battery life is very good may be they dont dial or recieve calls their phone is just a show piece for them or might be samsung is paying them to say such thing (battery life is brilliant) lol biggest joke of the century. Rating: Reviewed by Larry seymour on 04/01/2010 I previoulsy owned nokia n95, (still my fave phone of all time)but i8510 is a superb more than adequate replacement. i chose this over the n96 and have no regrets. Superb camera. Only downside is the sensor pad which can be too sensitive at times when selcting options, it would have got 5 stars but for this. Rating: Reviewed by from iran mehran on 08/12/2009 this is good but lively software for instant not befound Rating: Reviewed by Zantinia on 27/11/2009 Again the Symbian OS feels clunky and dated and spoils the phone. Rating: Reviewed by Joanne on 24/11/2009 This phone in the bom its really a great phone number 1 on my list Rating: Reviewed by Inaam on 04/11/2009 The Best ever. Rating: Reviewed by tahirah on 30/09/2009 DONT BUY THE PHONE, IT KEEPS HAVING FAULTS! It is a big waste in your pocket...and its trying too hard to copy the nokia softwares but it cant be the same! This phone is overall a shame :-( and yea i agree with the comemment below...DONT GET A CONTRACT WITH CARPHONE WAREHOUSE! ther cusotmer service is poor and they have a new policy that when you repair your phone numerous times they stil wont give u a brand new one...they make rubbish up like samsung dont authorise it or sumin. Carphone warehouse are jus middle men...who want to con you! Rating: Reviewed by Meti al on 27/09/2009 Samsung I8510 is Excellent Phone it is 100 Times Better then the Nokia N96 N97 Rating: Reviewed by Ishaq on 10/09/2009 The phone itself looks very good and glossy. However the user Interface is very slow. I also had to purchase 2 new chargers as my phone would not charge, only to find out that it was a common problem. Rating: Reviewed by AMG on 08/09/2009 the phone is nice just like nokia N-95 (same operating system) camera is outstanding , but the only thing i hate on this phone is the battery it isnt stay for long time like any normal phone even if u do nothing I agree with Dan from England Rating: Reviewed by carter on 04/09/2009 slow , shuts itself down , camera doesn't offer auto focus when flash is on . . Utter rubbish . . Symbian is rubbish avoid av all costs . Rating: Reviewed by Peter on 30/08/2009 Can't say I've suffered any of the problems listed below. I've had this phone for about 9 months now and I love it as much as ever. It just WORKS. Everything does what I want it to do and apart from a couple of freezes when I've been browsing websites (touch wood) I've had no issues. Thoroughly recommend this phone. Rating: Reviewed by haider on 21/08/2009 excellent sound quality, camera is ok shutter is handy from keeping camera dust free phone is good all around better than nokia n96 Rating: Reviewed by Alfredo on 02/08/2009 A real great Cellular the Samsung i8510 and I loved it very much except that it does not come with a complete Manual, however I was able to download the full Manual today. Only one thing which I never believed could come out of the factory is that the earphone has one side of a cable which is about 5 - 6 inches and the other normal about close to 2 ft in length and I will have to contact SETAR in Aruba on Monday to see if this can be replaced. Hope not to experience any problem with the Symbian system freezing etc., All in all a great unit and I preferred this above the Blackberry's but that is my taste. Rating: Reviewed by Laura on 29/07/2009 I have had the Samsung i8510 for 9 months now and absoultely love it. The only downside has been the short battery life (i have to charge in pretty much everyday). Other then that though it is a great phone and i strongly recommed it. Rating: Reviewed by carla on 29/07/2009 i can not believe the amount of bad reviews on this phone. I too purchased this phone was so excited about getting it and for a while it was great, loved it until one day it stopped charging, went out bought a brand new battery still no joy so bought a new charger still no joy, had 2 send the phone off for repair twice but still its not right, my phone has 2 be charged at least 8 times a day. Now my camera doesnt work and i constantly get messages saying memory full even though the memory is not full! Ive always had samsung phones and never had problems but this one is a nightmare, i wouldnt reccomend this phone to anyone, worst purchase ive ever made!!! Rating: Reviewed by Tracey on 27/07/2009 i had this phone from carphone warehouse and they are not much use,,, my phone went back times and and never seemed ok,, the last time it stopped working and it came back saying water damaged and that was a load of rubbish ,, i sent it off to samsung and they said drop damage which was right,,, don't trust carphone warehouse no more use than chocolate teapot,, steer clear Rating: Reviewed by dim189 on 16/07/2009 This phone owns, the camera is perfect and with the the 8 megapixels the size is great as well. Samsung phones have really improved over the years. Rating: Reviewed by alyssia on 14/07/2009 this phone is shocking! i hate it, it turns itself off all the time- which isnt good if your expecting important phone calls!! it freezes all the time and cuts you off when your on the phone! its not just my phone i have a friend with the same phone and hers is exactly the same only worse! it wont let her take pictures or videos and claims the memory is full even if she has nothing saved!! worse phone i ever purchased. Rating: Reviewed by Gary Drummond on 10/07/2009 This phone is an absolute piece of rubbish. I've had nothing but problems since I got it on the day of release. From the constant problems with the software meaning that the display doesn't appear when I open the phone even thought the backlight comes on, to the fact that the cheap black coating comes off in large chunks meaning that i had to spend ages removing it all to show the silver underneath just to stop it looking completely ruined. Avoid at all costs...If you're looking for something of this generation then stick to the N95 8GB black...If you're looking for something newer then the N97 or the LG-GD900 are far better. Rating: Reviewed by kevin dilworth on 16/06/2009 this phone is rubbish.... and the dust problem is identical on everybody`s phone who i know who have this model... good news is send it for repair to samsung.co.uk (online) not the waste of space carphone and if you have the same problem 3 time after sending it to samsung you can choose a hadset of your choice from them (thats what i have just done) Rating: Reviewed by Matt on 16/06/2009 Had my phone for 6 months, everything fine until a month ago when the phone froze and kept rebooting now way to repair other than to send into workshop for 2 weeks to be fixed. All been ok for 2 weeks, and tonight same issue once again! Looks like another 2 weeks without my phone!! DO NOT BUY this phone, what a piece of junk, pics are rubbish for an 8mp camera! Sony Ericson's seem much better! Have the same problem with dust everywhere under my screen!!! Poor show samsung! Rating: Reviewed by Damo on 19/05/2009 DO NOT BUY THIS! I bought the phone about 6 months ago, and it pathetic. I had high hopes for it, but it's one of the biggest regrets this year. 1. The camera, although 8MP, takes rubbish pics. Blur on most pics, flash is ultra blue, the phone doesn't save camera settings, and the pics don't look as good as they do on the screen. 2. Dust under the screen. Everywhere. Can't get rid of it, and it just keeps getting worse. 3. SSSSSSSSSLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW. I can type an SMS and have it freeze on me. The software on this phone is so slow. To the point I can cancel an SMS, and it waits for about 5-7 seconds before it goes back to the main screen. I'm happy to swap this phone to anyone that has a nokia. I'll never buy samsung again. Rating: Reviewed by Scott on 16/05/2009 Brilliant phone! Battery life was poor to begin with but now goes for around 3 days without charging which is pretty decent. Mp3 sound quality is top notch through headphones. Camera is mostly good, sometimes images are excellent quality, other times they are not, bit of a hit or miss really. As for speed, this phone is not slow at all like people are saying. My girlfriend has an N96 and this phone is much better built than it and ten times faster. Oh and it charges off the usb cable unlike the n96 too! All in all an excellent phone, I have had no probs. Rating: Reviewed by craig uk on 14/05/2009 bought my phone in november 08 i have sam problem as many of you the phone has stopped charging, dust under the screen and the optical sensor has mind of its own when im readin text messagaes just randomly opens a picture message or other texts Rating: Reviewed by Matt on 08/03/2009 The greatest ever phone to have ever been made, its just great, nothing bad can be said about this phone, great buy! If you want an amazing phone, buy this, no other phone comes close to beating it Rating: Reviewed by ????? on 03/02/2009 rubbish look!!dont buy it Rating: Reviewed by Andy on 19/10/2008 Had this for 7 days, was a great phone, except the earpiece lets dust into the screen, thats right under the screen so it affects your view of everything and got worse each time i pulled it out of my pocket, checked some forums and alot of people reporting same issue. Carphone warehouse replaced it with a nokia n95 8gb which has all the same features and no probs with bugs or anything. Shame though cos i loved this phone and what a STUPID problem to have on a flagship phone. Avoid this unless you keep it in a case or live in a vacuum sealed world..
