Budget 3G phone duel review: LG CU400 vs. Samsung SPH-M500
You might think that the LG CU400 has the edge in this round with its 3.5G networking, which is faster than the EV-DO network that Samsung's M500 supports...Moreover, the M500 serves up stereo Bluetooth, microSD memory expansion and a higher resolution camera at 1.3-megapixels compared to the CU400's VGA camera...While the M500's keypad isn't uncomfortable...

Samsung M500 Review by LAPTOP Magazine
At three ounces and 3.7 x 1.8 x 0.7 inches thick, the clamshell-style M500 is very light, compact, and comfortable to hold...Songs sounded very tinny on the M500's speaker, which also lacked bass and could have used more volume...

Cellular phones Samsung m500
The Samsung m500 is a flip phone that's just about as thin as LG's vaunted "Chocolate" phone and Motorola's RAZR...The m500 is a fairly stacked phone when you look at it on paper, with an MP3, streaming video, speakerphone, Bluetooth and even a Micro SD slot for expandable memory...Taking photos isn't that bad, and can be considered a brighter spot, along...

Samsung SPH-M500 Overview & User Reviews - Cell Phones - CNET Reviews
No, it's not very original, but that didn't stop Samsung from putting out its new SPH-M500 for Sprint...The design of the phones is identical, but the SPH-M500 does offer some extra goodies, such as an external memory slot and support for Sprint's EV-DO network...Like the SGH-T619, the SPH-M500 is slim, but it's certainly not sexy...Thin-phone...
