What's Hot

Price, ease of use, excellent display, light effect feature, A2DP Bluetooth

What's Not

Questionable design of controls and keypad, no 3G, proprietary headphone jack

The Final Word

At this price the S500i is reasonable value, but it doesn’t boast any outstanding features. Its design should appeal, but the keypad and controls may pose some problems.
