Samsung B100 - User Reviews

  • Just found an unopened box and unused unit from the drawer :) I am going to put this straight to recycle.

  • 2018

  • 2018 date how test

  • 2017 set to 2006

  • 2016 Works In 1999

  • Oh No! I have purchased an USB cable for my Samsung B100 at ₹120.00, I have wasted my money.. I have wanted to connect with my PC, but it did not worked.. I thought it has a java and I can load java apps for internet.. I tried many of things but I could not got any way to load any files in this phone.. in it's user manual they have wrote in B100's funbox there is a WAP browser.. there I can download.. but I.. I.. do not got any of those.. I hate this phone too much.. Now! I am going to buy an Android (Yu Yureka). Saala Haramjade Switch System Phones, THROW THOSE IN DUST BEANS.. bakwas

  • To set 2016 calendar set calendar of 1999

  • You can load java apps through mms!

  • Where Is The Gprs?

  • thank for solution

  • Hi, I had the same problem. The solution is very simple--Choose year as 2009. Y 2009 has the same calendar as 2015. So, date, month and day of the week will be correct. Only it will show 2009 in calendar application, but that should be okay. Problem solved!

  • This phone has years only up to 2014 for date setting and calendar! Anybody is there any way for firmware update? Just to include year 2015?

  • This phone has years only up to 2014 for date setting and calendar! Anybody is there any way for firmware update? Just to include year 2015?

  • I have a Samsung SGH-B100M, bought 2009 and have a problem putting in 2015, as it doesn't recognise the year. So I have to leave it on 2014 or 2009 to get the right day/date. How can I get it to accept 2015?

  • I am using this phone from 2008. I forgot the month when i bought but i remember the year. Whatever, I have never seen this type of handset. This is so so good and I feel from my hands several times but nothing happens to this mobile. I am still using it and it is working perfect.

  • 05/August 1014 This is the best phone ever. i used mine from 2009 January and is still working. it got lost two times and was found in those times. can Samsung make an updated model of this baby? put in some camera and update its software? . the only problem with it is that its calendar does not go beyond December 2014!

  • i want this set pls send online purchase site id

  • can i use gprs or internet on this? What option?

  • This is the best phone I ever use,Im tell u this phone always fall but it never be off or break.

  • i need its screen for my sats

  • I am from Mauritius and I bought the b100m here. Thanks to Kaushik, I wanted to know password and I searched everywhere on the internet + the samsung site and I could'nt get it.

  • Oh! I'm a user of this mobile and it's really awesome but it's icons has really confused me...

  • This phone is the pinnacle of useless. Working in the mobile industry its the bain of my existence. Users keep asking me why our mobile app wont work but they dont realise with pitiful memory they couldnt download things even if they wanted. Here in South Africa it retails for R400. They should rather sell older model E250's for the same price. It cost that much here before they discontinued it.

  • it is a very good phone ideal for someone who wants the ability to make calls and send and receive texts i use 1 and enjoy it.

  • this set is very good , but its very slow speed set.and but soft to touch its very bad to say for it that it have no silent option without vibrating.

  • Its a basic dual band phone with a torch light and wap browser. 2mb internal shared memory no memory card support which allows you to download polyphonic ring tones and wall papers of very limited size. 1000 mah battery.

  • sorry dude u can't connect this phone with ur pc because it has no browser that to u know already ! so because of lack of browser u can't connect this phone.

  • I have got this phone it's not bad for the price I have only paid 3500/= SL-Rupees but the message sending speed is slow also there is no way to connect with the PC only can connect the ear-phone through the port that used to connect the charger

  • plz suggest me how can i connect this phone with my pc

  • if you looking for a plain and simple phone its the one

  • why its casing are not available in the market this is the very bad product when your mobile casing broken so you have no choice to repaire its casing

  • its message sending speed iz vry bad.....i mean typng speed.it types slowly

  • I have bought Samsung B100 today as a second phone to use with my second line..... Believe me This Samsung B100 ringtone volume is louder than B130 and also louder than Samsung E250 too i have tried all these three phones ... The call volume ,the reception quality and the display are very good and has torch light which it is very useful and able to use mp3 ringtones.... This cheap phone has specifications which very expensive Nokia phones do not have : -Minute minder :alarm which the phone can make to make every minute in your call to help you reduce your phone bill... -Answer machine : you can activate it and make your caller leave you a message in your answering machine inbox -connect tone:a tone which the phone can make once the call has began -Mobile tracker : make you choose some phone numbers to send a message from the phone to help you track your mobile if it has been stolen and changed the sim -SOS message : messages to be sent to determined recipients to have SOS -Also the phone organizes your inbox to normal inbox messages , push messages from network and configuration messages from the Network Believe me if you want a cheap phone and don't want a camera or mp3 player this phone is the right choice for you , Go for it...

  • i have already bought a samsung b 100.itis elegant and cheap.i hope it is value for money. badr egypt

  • today only i bought theis mobile , its nice to use this handset and mobile rate also cheap compare iwth other handset , if have blue thooth or infra red it better for use this hands

  • BAD _ This phone is the lamest phone i have ever owned, it has a real short ring time, it holds about 25 sms,is forever running out of memory, and i dont have any pictures in it or any external mp3 or ringtones. it claims to be MP3 but i havent been able to track down a cable in australia, i bought one of ebay but it didnt work, also the software doesnt work on any computer ive tried it on. without the software (from samsung website) the computer wont recognise it. the hands free is crap, in its favour it does last a long time in battery it has a good alarm program and it was cheap i guess you get what you pay for. ive owned it for about 6 months, I am looking for another phone. This phone is good for someone who just wants a talking phone no frills

  • you can enhance battery standby time by setting custom timing of keypad light. its key pad is made in such a way that you can see it even in dark even if keypad light is off.Battery is very good Performance wise it`s an average phone, very slow as compared to nokia 12oo, 1208, 1209, sound quality is not as good as nokia, small display is another draw back.But it looks nice and a bit different.

  • i really don't know. Does anyone know if this phone has the turn on feature i.e. will it turn on/off

  • I bought this phone on Carphone Warehouse for gbp 4.95. It is a tremendous phone for the money if you just want a phone and not a portable music centre and television studio to carry around with you! What do you want for �4.95? It is a basic phone for people who want a phone and nothing else. It does not have a radio. It does not have a USB socket.

  • My samsung b100 seems to have too bright of a display. I have taken down the brightness from the brightness option in the display settings to 0 but nonetheless it is still too bright and the white letters on a light blue background are barely readable. Is there any way to further reduce brightness/contrast or does the phone have the brightness setting set on a level too high in the factory? If anyone has had the same problem I'd love to hear their solution if they have found one.

  • This Phone is best for basic and you can conect to pc with serial data cable (software for this phone is PC STUDUO 2 & PC STUDIO INTERNET). You can transfer contacts and image,ringtone also. Internet surf with pc also work with it.

  • Hi, purchased this phone today. It has a good keypad and display . Good basic phone at Rs.1600

  • You cannot connect your laptop to this phone. It is a basic entry level phone for people who just want a phone to keep in touch! There are no other connections either for anybody who is interested. The only connection is for a battery charger.

  • Mobile Guru Can you tell me how you go about getting the �10 airtime you have to pay in advance for this phone please?
