Hi, I have just read that the Samsung f500 is going to be released just after Christmas from my local O2 shop.
Reviewer: Dale - Sheff, UK

The F500 is a very good phone I can't wait till it is released in the UK if I don't but the F500 which there is a big chance I will then I would have to by the Samsung F700.
Reviewer: Yuko - UK

That phone looks AMAZING LOL, none of the shops have any detail about this phone, personally think this is the best phone so far, it's double sided & I think it's the 1st phone.
Reviewer: Zara - Notts, UK

Where can you get this phone from I really want it?
Reviewer: Tom Baker - London, UK
Date: 7th Sep 2007
I am not saying this phone is the phone of all phones. But you got to admit there's no other phone like it out there. It can be purchased in UK but at the moment it'll set you back few £100s. F510 which is the next generation has a digital tv-put & is out next autumn/winter. So it's best just to wait, that's if you can.

Phone is coming out next month! Got it off from Orange today. I hope the lady who told me was correct!
By the way if you are looking for the one to receive freeview as well you need to look at the f510 (similar to f500 except that it has freeview reception as well :D)

Everyone who is everyone is talking about this wonderful looking phone & yes I may of started the chit chat but I am sure I won't be the one to end it. It is a great looking phone with some really cool features, but the question on everyone's mind is, when is it being released in the UK, well nobody can give me an exact released but I have been advise between quarter 3 & quarter 4 of 2007, which means just in time for my upgrade.
Reviewer: Alban - Los Angeles, US

I had Samsung d900 great screen, features except the screen cracked turned black after a week. This phone looks the same & I would not recommend to anyone unless you have money to buy another one whenever it breaks.
Reviewer: Person - Birmingham, UK
Date: 24th May 2007
I was wondering if anyone knows how much this phone is & if it is out anywhere in the UK?
Reviewer: Chitalu Mwanakatwe - Lusaka, Zambia
Date: 21st May 2007
This phone looks brilliant! I so can't wait until its on sale because I want to buy it! I would recommend this phone to everybody. But the disadvantage is the really little battery life & the small screen on one side. At least it can't get scratched as it can stand!
Reviewer: Jim - UK

Brilliant phone, I would recommend to anyone with the money.
