Which one do you think is better overal?
I got the D500 and i thinks its miles better than the V3, but from just looking at esato the V3 topic is about 17 pages and the D500 is only like 7.
I no a lot of Pxxx users have got the V3 as a second phone but the D500 is about the same size and has better specs.
So people which one do u thing is better overall?

D500, that huge internal memory
IMO the D500 looks better, i prefer the slide mechanism rather than the V3 flip.

Personally i think Samsung phones are awful..
"Great tits and ass but no brains"
Rather: Brilliant displays and good keypads BUT
Huge memory.. theoretically but in real life itīs not dynamic, and thereīs umpteen embarrassing ringtones and a bunch of uninspiring pictures and shite you canīt get rid of. SMS-ing system is abysmal.. No auto Caps when starting new sentence, canīt (couldnīt before anyway) add own words to T9 dictionary.. T9 on by default, funky line breaks in SMSīs. Calendar a joke. Canīt believe Koreans only have one appointment/day?! Email client rudimentary, IRDA crippled, D500 Bluetooth shaky from what iīve been told, no voicedial *like, helloo Samsung, what would you do with a brain if you had one?* Not to mention that their phones look like bling-bling beacons and sound like miniature pinball machines at the slightest touch of a button or even opening the clam *pauses to take a breath* Shall i continue?
True it does have a lot more *IMO meaningless* features than the V3, but the V3 is about class and brilliant basic functions like perfect call clarity, good BT performance and unique style and choice of materials.

Having owned both phones I'm opting for the D500. The V3 is more long winded on the menu system, small memory, screens are good but camera is a bit dodgy, not able to record video, earpiece and speaker sound is good and clear, pre installed pics/themes are pants, bluetooth is very good but is limited, theres a delay from pressing a button/taking a pic/accessing options of sometimes 3 seconds which is slow imo. Other than that its a good phone.
Oh and the instructions are a waste of time.
Sold my V3 for Ģ300 less than a month after buying it.
Guess I'll be opting for the D500 which has become my main phone next to my
's P900 and S700

I love the d500 and WANT ONE!
If i was given the chose of either a free V3 or d500, d500 wins everytime! I think the d500 may bring back "black phones" as its so good looking! IMO anyway

To each his/her own
Fair play to ya both!
Just do me a favour and post back after having owned the D500 for a month or so! I would love to hear what you think once the first love shallows. I am not after a "See, told you so" but a real an honest opinion. Even though i wouldnīt touch it with a 10' pole, i would like an opinion in case any of my non-forum addict friends should want one.
Cheers!

sell the V3? no way
well maybe this one if I can't get it unbarred in UK but if that happens I will still get another.
nah the V3 is for keeps but I've been reading all the D500 posts around Esato and elsewhere and am a little tempted by it though technologically it doesn't really sound much more advanced that many phones on the market at this time
at this time though the JAM is numero uno
