Patrick Hebert The Samsung M2510 is a simple music phone that brings entertainment through music at a very reasonable cost. Since most GSM devices tend to be quite low on the functionality scale, it is impressive how much detail Samsung has put in into making sure that at least this phone can play music nicely. In general, most GSM devices do play music (just pop in a micro SD card, a 3.5mm audio jack and you’re ready to go), but the quality of audio output is not refined. The M2510’s music output is greatly enhanced by the use of DNSe –giving it a sound quality that goes on par with the better Sony Ericsson Walkman phones.
Size, Screen, Sound
The phone is only 99.5 x 46.5 x 15.7 mm, pretty average for a GSM device, but at least this slider packs in a few extra features to make up for the size. And yes, this is a slider phone, so that 15.7mm is pretty much understandable. The weight of the device is 90.5 grams, one of the lightest of the newer phones being released lately. Carrying this phone around or finding storage for it will not be hard as it can easily be placed inside a pocket or a bag without getting in the way. The slide form is very nice to look at too, and Samsung gives a choice of colors: blue and black.
Display-wise, this phone does not deliver much either. But that is what one would naturally come to expect from a GSM device with a 2.2 inch screen. The resolution is 176 x 220 pixels, delivering just enough horizontal lines to make the fonts easy to read. The screen is good for reading messages and checking the music player, as well as playing smaller res 3GP and MP4 files. The 256 thousand color capacity allows users to view image files nicely. Overall, it does what it is supposed to do; delivering users with an efficient screen fit for navigating the phone’s interface and music features.
Speaking of music features, that is where the M2510 shines best. It supports music playback for MP3, eAAC+ and WMA audio files (no OGG, which is a shame). The quality of audio is greatly enhanced by Samsung’s use of the Digital Natural Sound engine (DNSe). This technology help increase audio quality by eliminating most of the noise.
The Phone Camera
One feature that this phone is not to do without is the built in camera. The M2510 has a 1.5 mega pixel camera for taking photos and videos. The video quality has yet to be seen but we can expect it to encode in 3GP format. Images have a max resolution of 1280 x 1024, but this may be decreased as needed.
Power Consumption
The battery life of the Samsung M2510 is not as long as that of other devices. The 800 mAh battery capacity is considered low these days (with most devices having batteries that are well over 1000 mAh). Still, on a full charge, you can expect to have your phone operational for a full 360 hours on standby. Talk time can reach up to 8 hours of continuous GSM network access.
