Samsung M510 Black Phone (Sprint) Review

Samsung M510 Phone improves upon its predecessor, the M500, with a more organically rounded design as well as Bluetooth stereo headphone streaming–perfect for enjoying untethered tunes purchased through Sprint’s Music Store.
The phone operates on Sprint’s North American CDMA voice network, as well as on Sprint’s Mobile Broadband Network (EV-DO), which enables you to quickly access audio, video and data applications. The phone features a 1.3 megapixel camera and camcorder, GPS turn-by-turn directions, MicroSD memory card expansion, and voice-activated dialing.

 

With the Samsung M510 Phone, you’ll enjoy full-color video clips or live TV of the latest
news, sports, and entertainment from brands you know, like CNN, Fox, The Weather Channel, NFL Mobile, and more. Power Vision also serves as a portal for enhanced games. Where coverage is available, EV-DO connectivity provides average download speeds ranging from 400 to 700 Kbps, with peak rates up to 2 Mbps.

What’s more, Sprint’s music service is another EV-DO-powered service that makes the M510 all the more desirable. With the Sprint Music Store, your phone is a music player, letting you buy, download, and then jam out wherever you are with new songs or old favorites. Offering a growing selection of more than 1.6 million songs, the store provides you two copies of each song–one for the phone and another for the PC, as well as the ability to burn songs to a CD using Windows Media Player. So I’m sure you’ll love this phone too.

 

As a bestselling phone, the Samsung M510 comes with some really wonderful features, let’s take a look.
Features:

• The Samsung M510 provides Bluetooth version 2.0 wireless connectivity, and includes profiles for communication headset, handsfree car kits, audio/video remote control, and printing. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones.

• 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.
