Eten Glofiish-X500 Review - Display & Audio
The X500’s display has a resolution of 240x 320. The touch screen is 2.8 inches and displays 65,000 colors. The OEM home-screen of the X500 is awesome. The home-screen plug-in has shortcuts to every program and setting on the phone. The X500 has almost everything on the home screen plug-in but forgot to add the rotate screen function which the P3300 has. Even though there is no home screen option, you can make it a hardware button so when you press the button it rotates the way you want it to. It is always a good idea to buy a screen protector especially for touch screen phones because they tend to get scratched by the stylus. The X500 is great for music lovers, offering excellent sound quality. The phone comes with stereo headphones which can be used for answering calls as well as listening to music. The phone has Bluetooth version 2.0 and supports A2DP. The speaker of the x500 is located at the back beside the camera and is excellent quality.

You have basic calendar functions with appointments, calculator, PDF viewer, tasks and a lot more. The X500 also comes complete with Microsoft Pocket Office which includes Word, Excel and PowerPoint. With Word and Excel you can not only view documents but edit them too. If you use a word processor like Microsoft Word, it may be a good idea to get an external keyboard. There... GPS, Wi-Fi and FM radio are all forms of entertainment and if that’s not enough then you can always download songs, games and applications. The best thing about Windows Mobile is that you can download all sorts of games and software for free without worrying about fees. There is a wide variety of freeware and shareware games available that you will not have time to try them all. A good website is http://www.freewareppc.co... where all program... The X500 is excellent but when compared to the P3300 it doesn’t look as durable. The P3300 feels like metal as opposed to the X500 which feels like plastic. Overall the X500 feels nice due to the black rubber feel on the back of the phone. Overall the phone feels very solid The X500 does not have a built in keyboard and for some a keyboard is essential.
