Samsung SGH-B520 Review - Simple Music Phone by:Jerry Smith

Music is a universal language

Music is a universal language. To meet the needs of music fans for their mobile phone, the Samsung mobile phone series issued specifically for the latest music lovers, the SGH-B520 which appears as a continuation of the SGH-B200. The Samsung B520 is not equipped with a camera which is a must for a mobile phone these days. However, this is an interesting mobile phone offered, whose capacity is large enough - the internal memory as well as added slot for external memory.

Design

Although the phone is designed for beginners class, the Samsung B520's appearance is quite elegant. Overall plastic material makes it strong enough with the keypad's size being about 10 mm - very ergonomic. A shortcut key to the music and also FM radio is also offered.

Mobile phone screen

The Samsung B520 is a low end mobile phone, using CSTN display, with 65 thousand colors color depth, 128 x 160 pixels resolution.

Internet

Although the phone is in the beginner class, the Samsung B520 does not forget the internet. This mobile phone is equipped with the access-class 10 GPRS and WAP 2.0. But the ability of the browser is limited to vertical visual navigation. Just like the internet facility, the feature of navigation is also made as complementary.

SOS message

For customers who are concerned with the rising crime action, the Samsung B520 may be the right choice. To activate this feature is done by pressing the volume key 4 times as much. Application security can be combined with mobile tracker to do the setting if the SIM card is replaced by the person who is not known.

Music player & FM radio

Without the presence of a music player, this phone can not be more interesting. While a main feature, a music player in the draft standards is presented. The sound quality from the speaker phone is too good. FM radio also features a multi-tasking. Up to 39 channels radio can be saved.

Memory

Memory is one of the benefits of this device. The internal memory is 20 MB of available capacity. And the music files can be stored in Micro SD cards up to 2GB maximum capacity. The Samsung B520 places Micro SD slot under the battery, so if you want to remove the Micro SD, you should turn off the phone first. You need to be careful when inserting the SIM card, as construction inside the phone is very fragile and very easily damaged if not in accordance with the conditions.
