quite easy to win such a thing. you only need 1 person with one D500 to vote.
the more phones sold of one type the more reliable the numbers are

PLUS the fact that the model is quite new and u can't test reliability after just a few months.Try 2 years..this test doesn't say much being quite expensive.

When i had mine,it wasnt reliable at all! keep freezing and restarting when i was writing texts,would only vibrate not ring,and the slider got really hard to open and close

U should have sent in your vote.

I've always been sceptical of Samsung's... Maybe I've just got an aversion to Korean food. I've never used the D500 but anything phone with a mechanical sliding mechanism ain't getting my vote.
