Giorgio Armani MP3 player

The Samsung P520's MP3 player features the same graphics as the main menu and the basic functions can be operated by two bars. When you slide the vertical bar, you wind or rewind a song. To adjust the volume you have to slide the horizontal bar. On the crossing of the two bars the play/pause button is positioned. This neat, original reproduction makes it a joy to arrange your music. Furthermore you can repeat songs automatically, create playlists and sort music to artist, album genre and composer. The MP3 player remains active in standby mode providing you set this mode in the play setting menu. The headset as well as the loudspeaker produces a reasonable sound.

Samsung P520 mobile phone functions

With the aid of the common agenda you can manage your dates, remember birthdays and tick off tasks. The four available alarms and an alarm clock give you no excuse anymore to oversleep, unless of course you press 'OK' instead of 'Snooze' when the alarm wakes you. That way, I can assure you, the alarm will not go off again! In addition, the Samsung P520 offers a timer, notebook, world time and a calculator. The speech recorder has the same beautiful graphic effects as the main menu and the MP3 player. A unique extra feature is the possibility to view Excel, Word and PDF files through the File viewer. You can also use the 'find' function to find certain specific words inside a document. Moreover, the Bluetooth connection lets you connect directly to an external Bluetooth printer.

Lithium Ion battery

The Samsung Giorgio Armani phone has an 880mAh 3.7 Lithium-Ion battery at its disposal. Based on average use of the handset, like calling, sending text messages and some picture-taking, the battery lasts for six days. When the cell phone is used more frequently the battery has to be recharged sooner. Talk-time according to the specifications is 6 hours and standby time 220 hours.

60MB internal memory

The Samsung P520 is standard equipped with an internal memory of 60MB. If you take high resolutions on a regular base or if you care to take your entire music collection on the road with you, it might be wise to enhance the memory with a microSD memory card. This is possible to a maximum of 2GB. You can store a total of a 1000 text messages and the phone book offers room to one thousand contacts.
