Ok, so I finally got my S8500 Wave. Firstly, the box is very small so don't expect too many extras inside, unlike the Samsung Omnia, which is packed full of goodies.
Upon opening, it reveals itself as a beautifully slimline, 3.7 inch screened, metal finished, 1GHz Super Amoled Touch Screened Smartphone. In the box you find a: battery, charger, USB Connection Cable (unfortunately not standard mini USB) 8GB Micro SD Card with SD adaptor, walk and talk headset with silicone in-ear phones (quite comfortable and it doubles as semi noise cancelling earpieces), user manual and Kies (the pc software) mini installation CD's.
It is a light, elegant phone that feels comfortable in you hand. Its a nice thing to have Windows Mobile as the platform of the mobile. Since it uses windows, i can use the Windows Mobile version of MXit, which is really a cool thing to have. Its totally different as what your friends use. With the awesome QWERTY keyboard, i no longer struggle with the typing, and chatting just became so much easier.
The Samsung M3200 "Beatbox"
Is the Modern new Phone of 2009 and stil has the best type of application system the phone is a good use for sms's, phone calls, music, facebook and photo's
The negatives are simple that the internet will not work after some time and the music player will switch the phone off and the phone is to much of a damaged prone effect.
Sleek, efficient, affordable - in a nutshell.
I have used Samsung since I can remember. My first mobile was a Samsung back in 1999. But so far the S7350 is a smart looking phone but then its true what they say - looks can be deceiving. On the first day I bought this phone it started with freezeing problems. I took it back twice and got it exchanged, did a sim swop ('cause I thought it could be the sim), the battery doesn't last half a day and it just gets worse. I would advise you to buy this model if you need a good camera and only want to make calls. I'm sorry Samsung but this one is a no-no from me.
Review: Daniel Friedman looks at the Samsung B3410
Submitted by Daniel Friedman on Mon, 2010-06-07 12:31This is a phone for those who want a touch screen phone with some nice messaging functionality but don't want to shell out the amount of money you'll need for a smart phone. It's aimed at young people, and there are many good reasons that the youth would want one of these - it offers just the right amount of technology for users to be able to keep in touch with their friends through social networking without having to pay a premium. Armed with a QWERTY keyboard and a touch screen and integrated support for sites including Facebook, Picasa, Flickr, MySpace and Twitter, the Samsung B3410 is sexy, stylish and useful, and it sticks to the essentials, so while it may lack a few bells and whistles, this helps make it a very affordable option.
A light weight which is easily adoptable for a lay man.
Review: tecktonik_ looks at the Samsung Corby S3653
Submitted by tecktonik_ on Mon, 2010-04-26 23:25I'm absolutely loving it. Got it about a month ago on contract and really love it - the best Samsung I've had. It's also my first touch screen... took a lot of getting used to. Found it to be quite touch sensitive though.
Keep up the good work.
This phone has everything you need, and a little more…
Ever since the mobile phone was invented there has continuously been a trend to follow and also the competition when someone strikes gold. At first there was the race for color, then the RAZR came along and makers scrambled to develop the technologies so as to diminish the scale and weight of the units. Now often diminutive, phones have remodeled into a lot of and a lot of difficult devices, attempting to become mobile computers, assistants, cameras and multimedia players.
