Samsung B130 - User Reviews

  • how to delete password

  • its to good. it was my DAD's Phone now its with me. (28-JUNE-2018)

  • my 1st internet phone

  • please be continued this phone

  • hi i used this phone more than 7 years and currently i am still using really this is the best phone.

  • No USB and no games. I use this phone for almost 4 years! I know it well. :)

  • my b130s samsung is not operating with safaricom line in kenya.

  • And I'm not sure about USB.. I don't think it's available..

  • it has GPRS, but it hasn't games.

  • its cute and nunu....i kinda like it as yes,its very user friendly indeed

  • Can you change the casing of this phone? Pls. Reply asap! Thanks

  • i am also having same problem...how to clear

  • Not true... its quite fast for a cheap phone. Has an ARM9 core(PNX4901 SoC).

  • very slow phone.......kepad are very jam...!!

  • I got one these when my HTC went in for repair (and subsequent disappeared) and I think its rubbish!! The only thing that works for me are the sms and alarm. Everything else works but is substandard. Don't waste your money, its junk!!

  • All Manuals, Installation Software and Samsung PC Studio Software (for this Phone), can be downloaded here! Again! I hope that, this helps! :-)

  • Try PC Studio (Download(RS232C)) I think that it is on the Samsung, Website! Hope that, this helps!

  • there are NO games.

  • This is my phone and it's so user-friendly! I LOVE IIIT!!!! :D

  • this phone is cute, yet easy to use, but when i tried to connect it with a USB cable to PC it didn't worked, it only serves as charger on it, sigh....what kind of software will i need then?

  • It is a good fone,but the samsung B130 does not have WAP/GPRS. Its colourscreen,bt cannot receive mms. Specifications are incorrect :-(

  • yes bogs it is available but i think they are running of stock already as there are other new units coming out already. but i still prefer this particular unit for a basic phone

  • is this phone is still available in market?

  • actually yes this is a basic phone but its not that boring. i fell inlove with it the first time i held it. battery life is very very good. as in. it looks elegant in a cheap cost. unlike others like nokia, its so obvious what kind and how much that certain phone is. actually, i had one black samsung b130 and my bf used it, im not able to get it anymore but i still find a way of having it back, planning to get another one but this time, i might get the white one, if not, the brown one version of it. i just love this phone a lot!!! missed it too so so much.

  • The caramel sumsung is so boring to me it looks like just a normal cellphone it's features are not so interesting

  • actually there are two kinds of samsung b130.. one has wap in it and one does not have(this one is a super basic phone.. its borning)

  • just got one of these phones and alrdy felt in love with it. its small and comfortable (the keys are cool). since it has gprs, i can download small mp3's and wallpapers. i dont see a point anymore to have own a expensive cell phone :)

  • i guess active sync doesn't work either... i have it cause i'm using it for my omnia but still it doesn't work with my B130.

  • i guess active sync doesn't work either... i have it cause i'm using it for my omnia but still it doesn't work with my B130.

  • Farhanm - What cable did you use?

  • Check with Microsoft Active Sync this will work with this Phone. I have connected it with USB

  • Actually this phone is really for basics users..yeah ive read it some of this has wap.. but here in our country mostly dont have a wap services.. ohh btw this phone is only good for calls and texts. no more fancy features about this one... the best part of this phone.. is the battery life.. superb!!! it can stay up to 1 week.. by continuous texting and unli calls.. great for second phone!! and also even you have a cable for this unit.. its still useless because the port only accepts headset and charging.. but anyway.. uy better try to experiment with it.. maybe it'll works :D

  • same prob here... i'm having trouble connecting to my PC. i've already downloaded the PC Suite and driver but still it can not detect my phone! btw, i'm from the philippines.

  • Which USB Cable should I use

  • my phone cant be detected by the pcsuite..it doesnt even charge..i want to transfer naruto wallpapers but it seems that it really does not support usb cable too. when i plugged the usb in the computer and phone.nothing happened..pls i need your help thanks

  • You can connect to PC once you connected it to Pc go to your applications in phone and there click the option " Connect to PC" it will start working

  • Battery is superb.

  • maybe you have not yet installed the software/driver so your PC can detect the USB of the phone when you connect it.

  • i've just bought this phone (unlocked) for 9,95 euros with a prepaid (inclusive 10 eur) ! i'm now waiting for a usb cable (maybe it will arrive next week) ! let's see if that works ! about the phone: i have deleted all the wap settings rather easy to use keyboard light is too bright (doesnt change with screen brightness or contrast) !

  • why is samsung is saying this cell b130 has wap but the is no option for you 2 log into the internet or wap even even those mp3, this is not good I work with customers who uses this cell and when they ask where is the internet on this cell where shld i say it is : coz its not even there.

  • When i connect the phone to my pc via usb, the phone only recharges its battery. I can't access it for data transfer. The pc suite don't even recognize the phone. What's happening here? Samsung said you can connect this phone to a pc.

  • how come my unit has no browser??? so unfair!!

  • Why such a small memory?

  • its a perfect basic simple phone... nothing else

  • Can it also get mxit?

  • still no mms messages though :-( but you can download wallpapers etc

  • go to setting... browser settings and type in the www.http/ for your service provider.. in profile name...then...url... mine is then save.

  • Can i down load music from the computre to the phone

  • Can i down load music from the computre to the phone

  • I just bought this phone last Jan 10 at 5th Ave in Trinoma and it only costs for P1,550. Its colored and better menu system and resolution than nokia's 1209 and slimmer too! It's my first time to own a samsung phone and for an entry level it surpasses my expectation. Great value for money. I'm using it as my Sun phone. And for the moron who's asking how to cancel the keypad tone just go to settings then select phone then look for keypad. Sometimes I am amazed by the idiocy of some people. Hello? Every phone has its own manual that comes with the package. Read it to avoid asking stupid questions. okay!

  • hi guys can you help me i don't know how to turn off the warning tone. When i start to delete the msg in inbox or sent items there is always a warning tone in it. I want to turn it off. help guys! thnx

  • mobile tracker is a security feature of all Samsung phones where you can store 2 numbers of your friends or families or relatives..if your phone was stolen, and the mobile tracker is ON, the person who stole the phone will automatically change the simcard right?there, the mobile tracker will automatically send a message to the recipients that you store in your mobile tracker that your phone phone change its number and they will be the one who will contact the number inserted in your phone and will talk to that person to bring back your phone for every time they change their simcard, your recipients will know it..

  • PLEASE can anyone tell me how many SMS this phone can store? i hate to delete msges :(

  • this phone has only 400kb of memory, therefore you must choose mp3 not greater than this size or you can convert mp3s to not heavy formats.

  • Chaibi - can you tell me where you bought the serial cable APCBS21SBE for the Samsung SGH-B130 phone... I can't find a UK supplier anywhere.

  • Does anybody know where to get the serial data cable APCBS21SBE ?. This phone does not work with the USB cable.

  • how come it still says coming soon? Its already available here in the philippines and I even watched a review on youtube about it.

  • this is a gool phone

  • Hallo Chaibi, could you please, post the pin layout of the cable, or maybe the photos or scanns of the connectors. Any answer is welcome here.

  • Had it a few days now and I'm very happy. Slim and light, easy to use and has a really good quality feel/look to it. Nice easy/basic menu setup too, which is all I wanted. I give it 9/12 out of 10 in satisfaction, it looses 1/2 point because when changing sim card/battery date/clock has to be reset but nothing else? Forget that, it gets a 10 since it only cost �5 (with a �10 top up offer) and its unlocked :)
