Samsung P510
Product Rating   
It's amazing how one button can transform the way you use your phone. Now theres no need to waste time opening your clamshell manually when you've got the ease of a motor doing it for you. Just click the hot key and watch it open. Click it again to close. Open. Close. The only problem is, you might find yourself repeating the motion in fascination at such a simple thing.

I love & have always loved this phone, had it when it first came out fell in love with it straight away & although I have had about 4 upgrades since then I still always end up going back to it. it looks good, feels good and is reliable of course the camera is not as good as the more up to date phones but I wish I could find another phone that I loved as much as this one.

This is the most awesome phone I've ever owned. I've had it for years and refuse to swap it for another one. It rocks.

I used to have this phone and never have owned a Samsing before I was pleasantly surprised. I have to say the phone not only met my expectations it exceeded them and at the time there was nothing the phone didn't offer me feature-wise. As to say I was pretty distraught when I accidentally stepped on it and realised my insurance company were unable to replace the handset due to it being discontinued. Since then I have been looking around and generally keeping my ear to the ground but to no avail. If there is anyone who could point me in the right direction I would love to own the P510 again.

I think this phone is really good, I've had it for several years now, had it ever since it came out and I love, though I've planned to buy a new one now. I've never experienced any problems as it has been mentioned by some of uz.. The camera i much better than many of the cameras on new phones, althoguh I miss the sound recording when filming..

I have had my P510 for over two years and for me it's perfect. I can't get pix from other people, but to be honest, I don't care! Email the things! I'm too busy to look at my phone every five minutes! My service provider keeps trying to get me to upgrade, but I don't want to. I love this phone! It's small, neat, and just perfect. OK, it's got pooh ring tones - I would love just a simple ring-ring, but as I've usually got it on silent anyway, it's not an issue. I am now finding both batteries don't last very long at all, but I guess that's reasonable given the age of them! Which is why I'm on this site - looking for new batteries, because I DO NOT want to get another phone. I love my Samsung!

Pure brilliance. I've dropped it numerous times, the antenna has broken off, it's been in the wash, and THE THING STILL WORKS!!! Oh, and the flip is nice too.

I bought this phone off a mate who got with his mobile contract, he used it for a year until his contract got renewed and didnt have a problem with it. Since I bought it from him 18 months ago its been dropped, kicked, stood on, thrown etc etc more times then I can remember and its never refused to do as I ask. Its honestly the best phone Ive ever had!!!

Ive had this phone for a year now and its still really good but the facilities in it are pretty rubbish. if you create a video it has no sound,picture messaging dont work properly, the ringtones are rubbish. But the good things about the phone are the sound is quality and the screen is good the camera is ace! i would not recommend this phone to people who like alot of gadgy things in their phone this is a simple phone!

This phone may look expensive but is actually a very disappointing release from samsung. Initially intended to be a tri-band phone, this is actually only dual band even though all the other phones in the P-series are tri band. Nevertherless, it does have some useful features such as the auto flip button which isn't that big a deal but still handy when ur one hand is occupied and u need to answer a call. The real letdown however has to be the fact that for some strange reason the MMS function is limited to sending and receiving pictures only and NOT sound clips. So the only way to get ringtones for this model is to buy them via WAP. But don't get too excited, the WAP just happens to be another downgrade and is only version 1.2 and not 2.0 as specified on the official site. Some other points: the software is a bit slow and u have to wait a few seconds when you change/save/delete settings, the camera is average and again u have to wait a few seconds for it to activate when selected, memory size is descent (6.5mb) but would have been more useful if it was shared rather than specific amounts allocated to various features, 64-polyphonic sound is impressive but the choice of ringtones is poor and adding ur own tones is made difficult by the fact that MMS doesn't support it. On the brighter side, the display quality of the screen is excellent and the preset animations look amazing. Overall, this model seems to be targeted at those who just want a basic smart looking phone with all the latest technology without any unnecessary functions but the fact the it wasn't loaded with features to begin with means that this model has suffered one too many cutbacks in its specifications.

This phone is such a good little phone! It has all the latest features and has a great apperance. The handy little button on the side is also great as you push it and it opens automatically and you push it again and the 'clam' phone automatically closes.

How can people be so dumb it has no blue tooth function.Internet access should be a stroll in the park for pics and tunes and games uploading and downloading is where its at.Louder ring tones for the hard of hearing and memory cards like mp3s ie flash cards songs pictures and ring tones with ease this phone has an automatic function nice if your james bond or a kid not for me internet access with ease blue tooth.this phone is not worth the money.go for a mobile with blue tooth and free internet on the phone all year round might make it more of an all rounder my freinds. there is better and a lot cheaper.just do your home work (bluetooth)

I rate it a 3 but it would be a 5 if I knew how to lock T9 predictive text... it really irritates me that i have to scroll through all the other modes every time I write a text. Or am I missing something? Is there a secret (not in the manual) way of locking T9? Is samsung punishing me for my former loyalty to nokia? Please somebody...put me out of my misery.
