Samsung S100 - User Reviews

  • I was just joking lol.

  • Is there's any relations between the SGH-S100 and 100th Galaxy "S100"!!??

  • Woah, the 100-th version of the Galaxy "S" series, sure does look amazing! Can't wait till it comes out in 2070. I'll be the first to pre-order it, if of course if I will be alive by then.

  • indeed s100 is agood phone, poratable,with a long life battery, easy to use and with mult functions. but has a very delicate screen and very rare to get in uganda

  • I have got s100.the problem it has is ascreen and i have failed to get a new screen

  • It is a very good telephone i am very pleased.

  • hi, I am from Brazil and I have a samsung s100. the display of the telephone broke. where do I get pieces for that telephone? in the brasil he/she is not pieces for samsung s100. thank you very much, good-bye...

  • I have/had this phone. It worked great for 11 months and then the screens started doing strange things. It was still under guarantee so I sent it away for repair. It is still away and I doubt I am going to get it back. This is the only reliability problem I have ever had with this phone and I have never heard of the same happening to anybody else. I liked the phone a lot, I only had two complaints about it: 1. There is no way of adding new words into the T9 dictionary. 2. The screen being STN does not work at all well in bright light conditions. However, these problems are overshadowed by it�s good points. The main ones being the screen size (I have never seen bigger) and the battery life. The stated figures are not massive, however, you will be hard pushed to find anything that lasts longer in reality.

  • i recently got this samsung s 105 from a friend in new york...they purchase the phone from t mobile on a plan it is a gsm phone and i live in the caribbean the only way i can use it is if i can unlock it .....can anyone out there help me??????????????????????

  • how do i send the money.

  • I wonder that samsung s105(usa) vs s100 can be use same battery ? becoz now I have a problem due cannot buy this s105 battery in thailand..

  • I have an S100 but have a slight problem. The screen stopped showing and some local technician told me that it was bad. Might you have replacement screen and how can I be sure that is the problem? Amoni Hart

  • good phone

  • its really fantastic can any1 gave it to me free plz :( bye , i will be thankful to u :)

  • I am currently in the process of searching for a new phone. I have used the 'PHONE FINDER', however find it does not satisfy my request. I am a young student so please remember to take this into account when advisng me. Please could you give me your own personal opinion about which phone you believe to be the correct one for me. I would like my new phone to include the following; colour screen be one of the latest models games (at least one) small size store a large number of text messages (not completely necessary) not have an antenna if possible (not completely necessary) be tri-band be neat be available now Thank you for your time and effort. I find that personal opinions are better. Also please could you tell me what model of phone you have - just another way of knowing another good phone. Thank you again. Best regards, GEMMA LYSYCIA

  • Please could you explain in detail the meanings of the following; GPRS Bluetooth Java Email Client Infared MMS Thank you. Yours sincerely, GEMMA LYSYCIA

  • Well, about your dilema DADA i think that S100 is better choice.I`ve had both phones and they are prety similar but because battery last longer in s100 was to me decisive factor for mine decision regards

  • Can anybody tell me which SAMSUNG model is better: s100, or t100? I would really like to know that, because I am thinking of buying s100...

  • I think this phone is shite. Its texture is shite. Its case is shite. It is all round shite. Shite shite shite. It is pretty dirt

  • To eric: The phone is not launching in Singapore. But S300 is. The phone is much better and is cheaper then this phone. Its already available in the market in Singapore. Why do I know??? Cause I am a phone collector in Singapore and I bought it already with local Samsung warranty.

  • hi to everybody out there, i would like to know will this phone be launch in singapore and when? pls reply thanks alot!!

  • Niko- I'm pretty sure the football game is on the cover of the Moto v720 and not this phone. Anyway it does not have that game pre-instaled. There are plenty of places to get java games though. I have downloaded motoGP which is awesome, and WebView which is a java program that lets you view Actual web sites the way they look on computers. Many, many games are availible for download. If you want the wap address email me.

  • S100, are there ANY Java games for it on the internet? Is the football game on the cover available or is it just a selling trick?

  • Thanks GSMvision. Unfortunatly we have to deal with people like jamo who are purely racist. If the phone was made in the USA I'm sure he would be crazy about it. Anyway I have to say after about 4 months that this phone is has been wonderful without a problem. A big plus is that if you get the s105 from T-mobile (cheaper than the s100), you can easily unlock it with a code punched on the keypad as well change your CSD/GPRS settings. You can connect using your exisiting ISP!!! All you have to do is put in the dial up number and your password! Works great.

  • I'm sick and tired of all you dumb asses talkin' about phones which you actually never even saw closer.You have to use a phone for a while before starting to make stupid comments.And Jamo, this site isn't about food in case you didn't notice so what do you care about Innova's diet? Keep it up Innova, you make sense!

  • When, where this product will be introdued? How much? When it come to Viet Nam?

  • come out in australia or not , and how \ much, anyone tell me or i rape ur mom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • It's very well!

  • You can find some poly ringtones at for free, but you have to use the wap browser.They're also available for other phones like Panasonic gd87, Nokia 72-6610, etc...

  • I want ringtones

  • I am 90% sure that the Samsung R225 or 220 uses the exact same charger.

  • please, can somebody give me authoritative and accurate information about which other model of samsung mobile-phone uses the same/exact travel/house battery charger like(compatible with) the samsung s-100 model....

  • i hate that phone it sucks.

  • its a wonderfull gsm but i would love to know how much it will cost could you please send me the price to my e-mail

  • Unfortunatly it is only 300k

  • How much SMS can memory s100?t100 is bad because of the SMS memory so please tell me that I want to buy s100??!!

  • Dear ashish pls check the price there in mkt..and compare with t 100 ist some what similar but triband and much better. rajnish

  • Well yea just get the 105. It is the same phone without the data cable which isn't worth the extra $. Check out this site for cheap unlocked phones....www.ustronics.com

  • What is the batery life for S100,talk-time 6 hrs,it's a good time for SAMSUNG phones,but is that information correct?and tell me INNOVA if this phone is worth the money?~pay and go~ this phone is 500$!!!!!

  • This is my reply from Samsung about when this phone will be available in the UK: Thank you for your e-mail and we are planning to launch SGH-S100 about 1Q of next year. When it is available in UK, we will announce it on our web site.

  • Naaa!!! It is like $300 LESS than that!

  • This phone is around 500$!!it doesn't worth!!!!

  • we think this is a wicked phone and that we cant wait to get it!!!!!!!!!!!!! thabk you samsung

  • does anybody know which country does support and repair for sgh-s100 gsm tri band phone... thank you!!! jay

  • Just dont buy it if youare in the weak area of signal. Bring the charger with you all the way you go. That's all I need to say about SAMSUNG

  • Can anyone tell me when the S100 model will be available in the UK as no-one else seems to be able to??? I really want one....

  • i just want to know how much is it in Australia?

  • umm..hello.. i am from singapore... can i know if samsung s100 will be releasing in singapore.. if yes... when will it be released...because i really love this phone.... its cool..

  • This isn't an A300! Much better phone here!

  • a300? s'alright i suppose. My only gripe is that when u enter a new number, it asks for a location number, now, unless you're some sort of mind reader and know where ALL your contacts are stored; how are you supposed to key in a location No. if nothings in order?

  • Megan, The only difference between the s100 and s105 is that the 105 doesn't come with a data cable to transfer images and stuff. It is a Tmobile locked phone but is easy to unlock. The external display has a blue backlight and when seen under a light source, reflects with a bright green hologramish glow.

  • i'm interested in this phone. i have 2 questions though. what is the difference between the s100 and s105? also is the external display a blue color or that green color? i hope someone can answer my questions and email with the answers. :)

  • I have only used the slim battery that comes with it. It does also come with an extended battery which is slightly larger. The battery life is exelent compared to my nokia 8290. Considering its color screen and polyphonics...it's amazing. One thing I did notice is that it actualy heats up a bit like a laptop when you use the wap browser for a while.

  • Any opinions on the batterylife? www.gsmarena.com seems to have the wrong info about that.

  • Jamo, you stupid red neck. Anyway, this phone is cool. Keep it up Samsung!!!

  • LOL I hate plants to... =)

  • Yea that last post was mine

  • Jamo... I am from Colorado and I honestly don't care what they eat over in Korea. It doesn't have much to do with this phone. What I have seen however is that you use the same post about all the samsung phones. They eat dogs, you eat pigs....which are more intelegent than dogs anyway...who cares? Yea I'm a vegeterian and always have been. Not because I love animals, but because I hate plants!

  • Why do you insist in being a racist? What different cultures eat is their own business. Do you think that pigs and cows have less a feeling than dogs? If so does that justify the west for consuming pigs and cows? What is your problem Jamo? U are obviously a closet Nazi, probably a homo but at the same time a homophobe. My friend, you need to get help.

  • Sorry to INNOVA, I am a non-NOKIA user!, I am not a KOREAN to use dogs'meat in every meal. Maybe you do not agree with me only 'cause you have no experience of using cell phone. I think, the cell phones made from Korea is the same as made from CHINA. INOVA, please think of the dogs eaten day after day!

  • The last guy doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. The phone has wonderful reception and I know because my nokia 8290 poops out at my parents house all the time yet this guy has FULL signal there. The battery life is wonderful! I don't even know anybody who would need the included extended battery... the normal lasts around twice as long as my 8290..........oh and it doesn't smell like dog meat either.

  • Good features, weak signal, worst battery life. Will you buy a cellular phone which CAN NOT make a phone call or receive phone call when the GSM signal metter comes down to 2 (maximum is 4 or 5). I've had a change on using some of their phones which are : a100, a200, a300, a400, N100, N200, N220, N620, T100... I don't know why samsungs ate alots of battery!!! trust me, NO MORE THAN 36 HOURS OF NORMAL USING.!!!!! all of my friends ask me why my number so hard to dial, I passed thru a test by myself: using my telephone line to dial the cell number and the result is 1/5 means IT CAN ONLY BE CONNECTED 1 TIME AFTER SEVERAL TIME FAIL. Be careful when you buy SAMSUNG if you don't have enough time to pay extension and ussually moving. Finally, I smell Dogs' meat when touching this phone. I swear

  • I just bought this phone unlocked and it is wonderful! Very small and light yet solid! I was woried about the dstn screen but it is bright and crisp. Good job Samsung!

  • There are some very racist comments here... Shame, such a nice and infomrative web site spoilt by ignorant scum like some of you. And for your information, Korea did not win the world cup. As for the phone, i think Samsumg is going the right direction in developing fun and useful phones! Keep it up Samsung!

  • This phone is awesome. It works great and the battery life and signal are really good. I don't know what all you people are talking about, but this phone is really worth $450. I'm an electrical engineer and I know my way around electronics and let me just say that this is one nice phone! =)

  • Everyoone knows Samsung is most leading call phone company in the world... im using this phone right now.. and it has great battery life and strong signal!! maybe you messed up when you first charged your battery.. and 2002 worldcup was succeded.. dont have to hate cuz you are jealous..

  • BUY it here in the UK for �500 at expansys or mphone

  • I agree with Jamo. We cannot trust in Koreans. See how did they do to win the World cup 2002: Dirty!!!

  • Good features, weak signal, worst battery life. Will you buy a cellular phone which CAN NOT make a phone call or receive phone call when the GSM signal metter comes down to 2 (maximum is 4 or 5).
