Amazon.com Product Description

Samsung took the already amazing A900, put it on a crash diet, packed in even better features, somehow lowered the price, and thus was born the M500. With advanced features including a MicroSD external memory card slot, Bluetooth capability, and a GPS feature, The M500 is the perfect choice for tech-connected power users, mobile professionals, and mobile families who need the speed of the Power Vision Network to access information while on the go.

Design
The M500 sports a massive 176 x 220 color display with over 262,000 colors. The outside cover of the handset features a supplementary LCD display that can display pictures, time, call information, battery and signal strength, and more. The external display can even be set to display a large analog clock, a feature that is sure to be a great conversation-starter. The 1.3 megapixel camera lens is housed directly above this display. Up and down buttons for volume control are placed on the left side, and camera controls are included on the right side of the phone, as is the memory card slot, while most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset's control pad. The phone includes 50 MB of internal memory, and because the M500 has an internal antenna, there's nothing to snag or break off. Charging and USB data cable connectivity is available on the phone's bottom edge. Samsung was even nice enough to throw in support for PictBridge direct-to-printer printing (via USB).

The M500 is also E911 emergency location capable, thanks to an embedded Global Positioning System (GPS) chip necessary for utilizing E911 emergency location services where available.

Calling Features
The M500's internal phone book can hold up to 500 contacts, and the phone's picture ID system allows you to assign pictures and ringtones to your most common callers. The phone ships with built-in polyphonic ringtones, but for those times when you want to be discreet, there's a vibrating alert. A built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear, and advanced voice activated dialing makes calling your friends, family, and associates easy. Simply say the name or number of the person you want to call and the number is dialed automatically without using the keypad. No prior voice training is needed. Lastly, because the M500 is Bluetooth enabled, wireless headsets can be configured with the phone for total handsfree operation.

Messaging, Internet, and Tools
The M500 is a messaging powerhouse, with support for Sprint PCS picture and video mail services, you can shoot high quality pictures and video clips with sound and instantly send them to email addresses and or other Sprint PCS phones that are compatible with picture and video mail services. Or upload them to the Sprint PCS pictures Web site to create albums. You can also use the M500 to send and receive email, exchange text messages, or join a chat room. Plus, the M500 features an embedded SMS voice messaging client, a feature that allows you to easily send voice messages to other wireless users or any working email address. T9, a predictive text entry system, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit--a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.

The real power of the M500 comes alive with Sprint's PCS Power Vision services. Relying on Sprint's new EV-DO high speed data network, Power Vision allows you to enjoy full-color video clips or live TV of the latest news, sports, and entertainment from CNN, Fox, The Weather Channel, and more (Sprint Power Vision charges apply).

You can also stream or download music to your phone with Sprint's Music Store service. Download digital tracks instantly to your phone. Choose from hundreds of thousands of full-length songs from virtually every genre. Select songs directly from the phone and listen to them wherever you go. Even download them to your PC.

Use a USB cable and your Sprint Power Vision Phone to connect your PC to the Internet, allowing convenient Internet and email access (additional Sprint charges apply). With a USB connection, the M500 can also be used as a mass storage device.

Direct-to-printer printing via PictBridge is also featured on the M500.

And last but not least, personalized news and information tickers, and downloadable screen savers and ringtones are also available through the Power Vision service.

The M500 is packed with useful tools to make your life more productive and fun. A message dictation system lets you speak your SMS text messages into the phone, while a customizable favorites menu makes it easy to personalize your phone based on the applications you use most frequently. A voice memo recorder lets you record up to five minutes of spoken voice notes. The phone also includes an alarm clock that can be set one time or daily, a calendar with a to-do list and a scheduler, a calculator, a stopwatch, and a world clock. A PC synchronization application makes it possible to sync your phone's data with your PC.

Imaging and Entertainment
As mentioned, the M500 features a powerful 1.3 megapixel camera that can be used to capture and send video and still images. The M500's built-in media player lets you see and hear streaming and stored media. The M500 supports MP3, AAC, and AAC plus audio files. And where will you put all those pictures, videos, and songs? Straight onto the phone's 50 MB of mass storage, or on memory cards. The phone takes gaming to the next level, too, with support for advanced, Java enabled games.

The M500 also sports an airplane mode feature, which allows the user to safely use the non-wireless functions of a phone (such as music, games, or organizer functions) on an airplane during flight.

Vital Statistics
The Samsung M500 weighs 2.79 ounces and measures 3.65 x 1.83 x 0.68 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 3.50 hours of digital talk time. It runs on the CDMA 850/CDMA 1900 frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS PHONE!!!.......2007-03-12

I HAVE HAD THIS PHONE FOR A COUPLE WEEKS, AND THUS FAR... I CAN SAY IT IS THE GREATEST PHONE ON THE SPRINT NETWORK THAT I HAVE HAD. I HAD BOUGHT THE KATANA PREVIOUSLY BUT I STILL FELT IT WAS TOO BIG. THE M500 IS THE PERFECT SIZE. IT'S SO SMALL AND CUTE, I GOT IT IN RED AND IT LOOKS SHARP. PLUS, IT HAS ALL THE THINGS I NEED IN A PHONE, A CAMERA, GREAT COLORS AND CHOICES, EASE OF USE, LARGE BUTTONS FOR TEXTING. IT EVEN MAKES A REALLY PRETTY BEEP SOUND WHEN A NEW MESSAGE COMES IN, VS THE NORMAL ANNOYING BEEPS ON OTHER PHONES. THE RECEPTION HAS BEEN CRYSTAL CLEAR THUS FAR, AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS.

I TRULY HAVE BEEN PLEASANTLY SURPRISED BY THIS LITTLE M500, AND WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A GREAT SMALL VERSATILE PHONE.

I don't think I will need to own another phone!.......2007-01-08

That's how I feel after buying this one. I owned the Samsung A560 prior to this. It was a really good phone too, but had the annoying antenna sticking up out of it that would get caught on things. I like keeping my phone in my back pocket and it gets old, trying to fish it out when the antenna kept getting stuck. No similar problems with this phone!

This phone has a very well engineering form factor. The swivel action on the clamshell is very smooth and sturdy. The screens are large. The menus are very fun and interactive. I like the micro SD memory expansion option. Allows for more picture taking. The video camera feature works really well too. The headset volume is now very loud so there is no problem hearing others when there is a lot of ambient noise around you. I think I will enjoy this product for a long time.

Great phone, no complaints.......2007-01-04

I upgraded my sprint phone from the LG VI125 to this phone and couldn't be happier.

Pros:

- much quicker internet
- sleek and very slim form factor
- mp3 and jpeg support via micro sd
- strong headset volume (lg headset volume was weak)
- perfect clamshell action
- one-click texting from a saved speed dial

Cons (minor but worth mentioning):

- no dedicated speakerphone buttom (2 clicks to turn on while on the phone)
- pretty limited pre-loaded themes and screen savers

All in all not much to complain about, I got my wife the Katana at the same time and this is a much superior phone for the money.
