  • This is an autobiography of samsung c3200 so please read the whole story its intrusting I had purchased this mobile in oct 2010 for 4000 inr in goa and since 1st day of its purchase i have been facing many problem( n nunbers).the very second day i went to the shop from which i had purchased it and explained him the problems such as 1.dam slow bluetooth 2.memory gets courupted every now and then 3.camera gets hang and cannot capture photos at 1600*1200 resolution(2mp) 4. phone was restarting whenever i used try to open any app. Or memory card thus when i told him all these problems he refused to replace a 2day old scraped mobile he told me to visit samsung's repair center and i can tell u that they were so disgusting, slow,careless towards their work and after a paineul hour of standing infront of them the took the mobile and told me that they will call me after the cell gets repaired they dint call me for an month so i went and asked them regarding my phone then dint talk even a single word at retured the phone to me which had many scraches on it i pressed the on key and saw that mobile software was re-installed and after that i tried to find problems and i saw that the bluetooth was slow and other problems remained the same only the hanging problem was being solved so i asked them regarding this problems the told me that the problems are likethat only and cannot be solved. thus i was not satisfied with samsungs service center and the vendor i continued using like that only for past 1and half year untill when in this may 2012 the phone refused to charge i thought the battery must have been having some problem as the phone was out of warrenty i took it to a local repairer who told me that there some shot circuit in some of the ic in the mobile and cant be repaired thus the phone was in coma for last 6 moths and suddenly on 21 nov. Mobile got stared and also started charging.besides from this horrible experience of this problematic phone i experience some good quality music from this phone. i hope u must have enjoyed it but i have got a loss of 4000rs.thank you.

  • NONSENSE! Sony Ericsson handles Java apps better than ANY Samsung. They even have multitasking. I have a W610i from 2008 which can run the Gmail app, Opera Mini 6 and the new Facebook app ALL AT THE SAME TIME! Show me one Samsung non smartphone which can do that. Even Nokia doesn't handle Java apps as well as SE. Compare this Monte Bar to the Sony Ericsson Cedar - specification and user opinions. ITS A NO CONTEST! But both cost roughly the same.

  • it can be used roughly but has software probs

  • regarding the camera I too was experiencing the problem of inability to click pictures of 1600x1200 size that too in Superfine settings. After a service with Samsung I am happy to say I am now able click pictures with the above settings. You too may get your phone serviced with samsung service centre and rectify the problem

  • helloww. i have used this phone for one year its a very simple stylish. very friendly phone specially the keypad and msgng is very good. but its bluetooth is floop it cant open heavy images. its just a beautiful and friendly use mobile phone.

  • Very nice mobile by samsung its performance is best at budget level.

  • its a good set..........but the camera will not work on 2 mp.............and the blutooth is the worst

  • my phone is in service station in 3 months . when i am browsing on this phone strong radiation creates and headache start and feelling omating . sound is low . as campare pl donot purchase samsung mobile .service center are not compitant

  • my mobile is new. but wat the problem is i go to contacts means my mobile automatically get restart. Not tis occuring all time some times. is there any solution for this problem?

  • its not that much good phone for people who all are using phone continuously. u should handle this mobile softly. otherwise it will starts showing its ability like hanging, pink light blinking on the screen, stuck up in all the app etc.... but head ph is awesome... one more thing it hv 0.78w/kg microwave radiation. so its less effective for human brains.. so u can go for this...

  • some times hanging. blue tooth slow, no sound options for service msgs. if u want mute set silent. speaker sound is not sufficient. then do your best

  • Hi I am trying to Install Opera Mini on my C3200. I dont know where its going after download and Why I am not able to see it any of the menu options after installation. Can you please tell me where does it gets downloaded and After installation where do I can see the icon to use Opera Mini.

  • since ur sim is old it shows refreshing sim after a call or msg... so, better u asked to a dublicate sim frm ur service provider, or use other sim...

  • very good phone

  • good handset

  • 10x for your reply. I allready bought this phone. The display is excellent. OboardHeadset is ok, but the loudspeaker is not so great (perhaps is the DNSe, with which i'm not used to, previously i had a E2121B which was LOUD and CLEAR). Also i have one problem: i live in an area where sometimes the GSM signal varies (50%->100%). When this happens, Monte lights it's display for the preseted time which is currently 10s (without touching any key). Does anybody encountered this problem? it is a firmware bug or hard err?

  • it supports downloading just for some few sites

  • Currently battery life seems excellent for my pattern of usage. I have set it to lowest display brightness. I am a rare talker. I have charged phone 9 days ago and it still shows 3 of 5 bars left. My using patter is about 20 min talking in a week and few (~10) SMS. Totally satisfied with this model.

  • In OPERA MINI 4.3 how to download the songs through memory card

  • You can't blame SAMSUNG man did'nt you notice the software bugs in nokia 5130 and look at the colours of nokia 5130 they are just a crap Nokia is no way near to SAMSUNG,SAMSUNG'S GALAXY S2 also beat iphone4.

  • headset problem in this mob ... everything o.k

  • yes it supports .3gp format videos..

  • Man It surely has a 262k colour screen so dont worry about it and do go for it

  • Yup the battery life is also good if you keep the brihtness level at normal but if you keep the brightness level at maximum it will definetly consume more battery

  • @truth can you tell me how's the battery life compared to ussage?

  • I think C3200 is a brilliant phone much better than Nokia 2700 classic in each feature and it has a beautiful look also so Do go for it and enjoy the beauty of Samsung

  • Please clarify 1) connecting to pc through data cable "pc connection only available in idle" what could be the problem 2)Is there any solution to high resolution camera pics hanging 3)Is there any way to know the percentage of Battery backup available. 4) Any latest software update available is so what is the version

  • the superfine option in camera clarity in 2 MP does not work in this model and the phone hangs, correct.

  • Is this set support 3gp video format? please reply..

  • can you tell me how's the battery life compared to ussage?

  • How long is the battery life compared to ussage?

  • Turned out that problems with signal and network was due to an old SIM card. Changed it and now everything runs smooth. =)

  • can anyone suggest me the unlocking code for games in c200?

  • Just bought C3200 in Latvia. I switched from Nokia 5100 - love it's durability. All I was looking for was a good battery life. I picked this one instead of Nokia C1-01, because this seemed to look better while having about the same functions and battery life. 1. First set back was lack of decent manual. Yes, I love reading manuals and getting to now every function available. 2. Unfortunatelly seems that something is wrong with the software. It is loosing connection to network all the time - either by simply not being touched for some time or by doing some stuff. For example trying to open internet (that also fails) removes all connections what so ever. No calls can be placed and no calls can be received. Still it shows that signal is strong. Really weird phone... Will take it to a service point.

  • Try Samsung Kies or New Pc Studio aka NPS. If you want to use music recongnition you must have access to internet through wap. Define your internet profiles first, then if you are able to use internet go to Menu / Music / Find Music and record something. If you want to know what song is playing @ radio go to Menu Apps Fm radio , turn on, then options / find music.

  • how to use music recoganisation in dis phone...

  • Has anyone updated the firmware off this phone? If so, please tell me how to update it because i didn`t succeded with FlashTool_E2_R6 thanks ;)

  • The most samsung phones between rs 3000 to rs 4000 has a problem. It supports opera mini but it can't install it for the first time and if installed it can't work flawlessly like nokia phones. My question is that can i install opera mini and surf internet flawlessly in this phone?

  • Folk, this Phone... is a piece of Crap... Am not sure which sucks more the Handset itself or the Memory card that Samsung includes with it... U might say "Wat do u expect from a low end phone"?? But.. Understand.. the Card does not detect any some of the files you upload to the memory card... that is.. if you are lucky to upload it... Second.. the Camera... Not sure how it turns out like, cause you are not able to access it with a data cable, which is like finding a "needle in the haystack".. Phone has good music.. Phoning is good... Phone turns OFF for no reason... and you wont know it.. until it turns ON again... Sad story from the Makers of the Galaxy and the Wave series..

  • u have two options first- use data cable.. this is right choice for you, here u also install kies in your lappy for accessing INTERNET. Second- use BT 2.0 connection with lappy and your mobile, here this is slow connection and high chance of loose connection.

  • yes! u can type text or play games or surf mobile internet during playback mp3 songs (multitasking). its earpieces sound rocks with very good deep bass and treble mixture, it also have effective equalizer.

  • Hi Guys... I want to connect internet through this mobile to my laptop which has "Windows 7 starter" OS... I don't have USB cable. I am using Airtel postpaid connection. How can I get internet to my laptop using this mobile??? Thanks in advance!

  • It has major firmware problems. for example, if you want to listen to a song converted in aac with album art embeded it shows you "unsupported file". album art works only on mp3 files. if you set camera resolution to max sometimes the phone wont save the image, i`ve tried no transition effect, changed save to memory card, then to phone, none will work. you need to restart the phone or switch to video camera then switch back to camera or lower the resolution. often when i listen to music the audio player wont show me the length of the track, it shows 00:00. java programs, sometimes it freezes and files no larger than 700kb are supported. it`s very hard to make playlists, on nokia phones it`s very simple. this phone includes a nice feature, possibility to search in entire music library but it`s very slow if you have a memory card (i use a 4gb), max supported 8gb. on their website samsung shows that a new firmware exists but i cant update via kies, i dont know why. the speaker of the phone is very low in volume but in headset it`s wow, amazing, clarity, bass, volume, superb sound. beside that i like very much the look, the display and that`s it.oh, don`t forget, it`s a cheap one and no, it`s not 3g compatible. good luck

  • i have the same fone but i cant copy and paste text

  • can we perform multiple task in samsung c3200 while listening music e.g can we type massage while listening music .is it available in grey colour. what is the quality of its earphone simple or buffers

  • very good phone.but still some software probs is thr.while sending msgs,or playing songs,phone gets restart,.plz give me da solution

  • i wanna know whether samsung c3200 is 3g compatibke or not

  • This is truly amazing phone briliant display clarity,crystal clear sound,good browsing speed all these features make this phone excellent. This is one of best phones.

  • This prob arises whn u remove the memory card without switching off the fone... remove memory card only aftr switching off d fne,,.. ur default location wud nt be changed.... :)

  • How is the audio quality (listening to music and FM),which is better Cedar or C3200? I would like to buy after receiving inputs about the above. Krs

  • plz show the correct version of bluetooth of c3200 .....don't blufing with otherz...the correct version is v1.1 and shown every where is v2.1.....

  • I used this cell and well satisfied with its performance. all the features are attractive to select this one. Fm radio with Recording, 3.5mm stereo jack, Dynamic sound and brilliant sharp display is a good additive for this device. Internet access is much faster as i am expecting a low one. the most impressive thing is, its price tag only 3400 INR only.

  • this is a stylish , trendy and total value for money cell. there in call quality is good with 3 days standby. the browser is avg fast for accessing internet. here 3.5mm jack provide a adv feature use in multiple choice for cd, dvd or home theater system, simply plug and play.

  • how to install games in memory card?

  • ...keeps reverting the storage setup from the external card to the internal memory, and you have to continually adjust this when you want to take a picture or it don't work. Anyone knows about this bug?

  • c3200 monte bar can't be compared to se cedar. cedar is miles ahead of any ph upto the budget of 10k. my friend uses monte bar & i cedar. we tried to compare the 2 phs & cedar won at every department. don't try to compare monte with cedar. cedar is coming from paradise & monte from hell............., mind it.

  • I have blocked a number unknowingly. anyone knows how to unblock that?? thanx in advance

  • My wife got this phone recently, it's nice and I found that it has VERY similar features to my Nokia 5130. If I can put my hands on it I will post a full review. Anyway, It has an annoying bug with the camera that keeps reverting the storage setup from the external card to the internal memory, and you have to continually adjust this when you want to take a picture or it don't work. Anyone knows about this bug?

  • Buy C3200, don't buy S3310, it is not worth it, comparing the design and other features like call recording C3200 has that S3310 doesn't.

  • Which samsung phone is better- S3310 or C3200? Pls answer someone.

  • bluetooth is not good sometime it does not detect bluetooth of other mobile all other features are brilliant. go and buy this phon.

  • very good phone with all features stylish but it can not intall java more than 700kb.

  • only problem is that it can not install java applications more than 700kb.

  • M also having dis set..........its realy cool...

  • very beautiful stylish phone just go and buy it thank you samsung.

  • sir i want to ask does this phone have speakers both sids of camera ?

  • This is a good set in terms of price and the feature you get on this cell phone. The only drawback is it has a bad Bluetooth chip and for some reason it will not connect to KIES to transfer contacts and do a backup, the only option you have is get a data cable to tranfer data and backup your contacts. Basically Bluetooth is useless in this set.

  • Not True, call recording feature is available, all you have to do is go to voice recorder during a call through options that is left soft key and record a call. You can record upto 60 minutes of call if you have a Micro SD card installed, if a card is not installed then you can only record a call for 3 minutes. Hope this helps for people asking about call recording feature.

  • Does anyone know what is the price rate of this mobile, down is South Africa. And which which shop/s am i likely to get it?

  • very nice phone. .been using it for the last 6 months. .earphones are amazing. .battery back up is excellent. .complete value for money!!!

  • very nice phone. .complete value for money

  • stylish wid nice color....! i m highly satisfied wid monti bar...! but Bluetooth is slow...!

  • I bought this phone for my wife few days ago. She was using Nokia 2700 Classic before that. Comparing to that, Samsung C3200 has a much much better signal reception, shape and clearer voice, the interface is quite user friendly, sms chat is quite good. Buttons are quite soft. Cell responce is good. Battery life is better than Nokia 2700 Classic. I got 2GB card with it. Data cable was not inside the box but who needs it when you have blue tooth. The blue tooth has normal speed. The radio recording is a very nice feature. only one negative thing is that it gets hanged when you directly save the images on memory card. But you can save the image in phone memory and then transfer it on memory card. The shape is awesome. Camera quality is equal to Nokia 2700 Classic. The recycle bin is a good utility in this phone. One very handy feature is you can access all the logs at a time when you are sending sms or making a call, its very easy to locate anyone from call logs or sms logs. A new feature i found was the fake-call. I like it very much. Overall I suggest that if you donot want to waste money on expensive sets and yet looking for a stylish and reliable set, then buy Samsung C3200.

  • nice cell by samsung. affordable... and stylish...

  • this is the affordable set by samsung. i am using from last three months. very good for low cost multimedia buyers.

  • you are correct vinny. No sony ericsson user will like to have a samsung or a nokia phone.SE has its own standard.

  • i am looking 4 budget mobile around 3k to 4k. thanks to GSM arena team 4 giving correct information and reviews to select a budget branded mobile. i like samsung c 3200 for good features, looks and appearance. again thanks a lot to GSM arena,.. continue your reviews.

  • i brought this mob 25th march... nice phone..it's name is metro power

  • dont buy this mobile its not wrking advanced technologicals ....................

  • i bought this phone a month back. . . i must say this phone is a disaster in terms of operation. 1. sound is good. nice bass. 2. looks good. 3. java applications don't run as expected. i tested phone . like opera mini would display pages without space between words as if no space bar was pressed while typing . 4. bluetooth is the biggest crap . transfer rate too slow. 5. files cannot be saved to memory card directly using java browsers like opera mini, bolt browser and uc web. it will just show memory card drive but will not save to it . means jsr file system error. final verdict - this phone needs a serious firmware update . . . as all samsung phones are there in the market with java platform outdated or sound or network problem . . i was a samsung user from past 2 years and i used sonyericsson for 4 years without facing java errors and with superb sound :-) due to cost now i have to switch to samsung . . . i bet no sonyericsson user will ever be satisfied with samsung . me frm india

  • Does it support the only the regular micro SD cards or even the SDHC micro SD cards? Now a days, the market is flooded with these new cards.

  • samsung says in-build memo is 45mb but gice! do u know that they included default ringtones, wallpapers, themes etc in same phone memory. so u dont think wrong about samsung because they given 3.5 mb memory for recycle bin and 5.0 mb approx. memory for java games (.jar) in phone memo. so total is 36+5.0+3.5= 44.2 mb approx memo. this is a fact in C3200.

Coz Samsung phone is Koreas distinctive product..

  • about the bluetooth it is not 2.0 it is 1.1

  • I have been using this phone from last month. This is a better phone worth of money. The basic design of this phone is awesome. build from old Monte bar...but you will leave ur fingerprint on the back cover of the phone.... this phone has a nice robust design and nice and cute rubber keypad that makes this phone a little bit sophisticated. and about the battery..hmmm lets just say its gud for talking, capturing pictures and listening music also but when u browse the internet then the battery drain so fast.... and in gsmarena it is told that 1000mAh but truly it 960mAh..and a little trick bout the battery- use *#0228# and scroll up and down and u'll see lots of info about the battery better than SE'S battery info... internet is too fast in this phone as it is capable of EDGE but sometimes phone temp increases by using internet, phone's display is brilliant but font is small a bit which I feel it personally... and phone's music quality is decent and FM reception is ordinary.... beside dz U also can text ur friend a much more faster dn ever bcz of the shape of the keypad.tnx to Samsung by designing such keypad...but the D pad button looks weaky sometimes...

  • Some of user review have faced a problem like- in camera mode hangs up, restart phones or not store photos in higher resolution 1600*1200 in superfine mode. I HAVE A COMPLETE SOLUTION FOR THIS... PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!! Actually samsung C3200 have no own camera default settings option except full phone default setting. follow this procedure to get rid of this kind of problem. STEPS (1) click on camera menu. (2) select option (3)select setting icon and click OK. here you set superfine mode and press OK. (4) follow the same procedure(1 to 3 steps) in camcorder mode also. (5)Then switch off the phone for 3 to 5 mins. (6)after 3-5 mins switch on the phone and again wait for 3 mins. (Don't open the menu window). (7)now camera is ready for store the settings of user defined. (8)Ha.Ha.. successfully u win the series of unlimited shooting/video rec by c3200. NOTE- If you restore the phone in default company settings you again start to face a problem again and u again follow the above procedures.

  • nice looks. Good sound on headphones. Very light.

  • How many texts(MJessage memory) it can store?

  • High performance, fell so good white texting with nice rubber keypad! i need a phone for texting with large lcd display in 320x240 pixels, 262k colors for saving battery and soft keypad, this phone is right choose

  • this is eye catching piece by samsung. it copies monte style, good display, decent 2MP camera, good dynamic sound with a backup of 5 days standby. one week later i buy this budget cell. thanx'''s.

  • I purchased this cell two months back and I'm happy with its performance. So far found followings: 1. when I take picture at superfine mode and at highest resolution, it hangs. 2. Blue tooth is not fast enough

  • its really a worth paying mobile thanks to samsung

  • there is lots of software issue in this model, like,continuous vibration,image not saved in 2 mp camera mode,we can't send message to more person and there many problem in this phone.....!!!!

  • dude you got it wrong,it does support google apps..and it works perfectly.

  • this budget cell is intelligent because if we by mistake deleted any important text meaasages or contacts it come to recyclebin. here we get all things retrieved before completely deleted. another thing is very good stereophonic dynamic sound (DNSe)with 3.5 jack which create pleasure form music lovers and last, very good backup for 5 days standby and 9 hours talk time. the only one drawback that is slow bluetooth 2.1..

  • i Don't think so......i have checked it out that iy Doesn't support Google map...............

  • It supports 700 to 1000 kb java applications (Depend only on phone memory). It doesn't support google maps but google shortcut is avliable on home screen so you can easily access gmail, orkut, G maps or search engines.

  • How about its java environment? What is max jar file size it supports? Can it run Google Maps?

  • C 3200 is affordable in price and good in features...

  • Can you tell me what kind of problem you were facing with your cemra and what you did to overcome from this problem...

  • Most of the phones uses the older version of bluetooth(v2.0). And this phone uses the later version(v2.1). Maybe that's why it can't cope with the others. Maybe it will do faster with it's own version.

  • is this support 3g service ?

  • because his bluetooth version is v1.1 and shown on web is v2.1

  • this c 3200 have blue tooth slow problem. another features are quite impressive and this is tight budget multimedia cellphone from samsung. I LIKE IT.....

  • There also has the audio video sync. problem with the 3gp format. Is there any other player to run 3gp which can remove this prob?

  • how can i connect my samsung c 3200 to pc and how it is connected to the samsung pc studio ???????????? please guys tell me

  • samsung c3200 is really a worth for the price i paid, all the features are fabulous just want to know whether i can change the greeting text

  • can tell me from where I can download the full version of Ultra Video Splitter?

  • Use Ultra Video Splitter or Samsung New PC Studio (NPS) for best 3gp converts...

  • No ramanja..there's no solution yet to fix mp4 audio-video sync.. I hv tried mp4 as low as 15 fps but still desync occurs... you can try 3gp at 23 fps..it gives really good clarity.. and justin try a hard reset of the phone by dialing *2767*3855# WARNING:backup phone book and important data before doing this and use at your own risk...

  • Hi. I recently bought this phone and it seems very good, but I have 2 problems: first, the ID3 tags are sometimes recognized and sometimes not. I tried with ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, various settings for the character encoding and nothing! Some songs with tags, others not. Second, is there any way to sort the tracks by track number? I checked all the settings, but it only show me the options to sort the songs by "recently added" and by title, which is not very useful when you want to listen an album in it's right order. Anyone have any ideas? Or is there another audio app to install in this phone?

  • how to canect my phon to the pc for internet? i have no datacabal.... or pc suit for semsungc32oo. please help me...

  • Hey, i tried all these things, but the camera still hangs.. How this fuckin cell can be perfect if it has this major flaw? Why the hell we spend our money on this product?

  • Is there any way to overcome audio video sychronism problem while playing mp4 videos. I am not satiesfied with 3gp quality. If u have any good quality 3gp converter, please tell me.

  • This will always remain one of my most favorite phone ever. I just love it too much. Sometimes I can't stop starring at it. It's so sexy and gorgeous and full of features.Thanks Samsung for this breath taking mobile. And thanks Depon for your awesome review. Mine had a problem with it's camera. Your tips works. Now I can take picz in Highest res. mode. Thank you so much.

  • @deepon First of all, thanks for your intelligent review! I own metro-3310i, which is a twin bro. Of monte.. Both have same problem, that Camera hangs on 1200*1600 resolution. I reached service centre 5 times in first month, but it is not solved. *TIP>> If you want to check the status of your battery, just type *#0228# and navigate up/down for battery info. It is safe to try this, and is very much useful also. > Muzic xperience is great with ROCK, WIDE, SURROUND effects. > Any java (.jar) file above 700kb wont open. Even my fav. FIFA10 of size 701 kb is large for it.. :D > We can make our own themes. Just move the required image to the IMAGES folder in phone memory, and create theme! Cool!! > If you keep extermal sms tone, it will ring for 3 times for incoming sms. >> Install "ENTAGGER MOBILE" app to edit tags like artist, genre, composer, years, etc. in your songs...

  • Nice review!

  • Its been 2 months now that I have been using this set. I got it for INR 3400. I owned a Guru Dual Speaker before. All I have to say is that no other phone in the market can offer this many features for so low a price. Here are a few points I would like to share with all-- 1. Looks are awesome. Sexy backcover. Keypad is excellent for fast texters. The backcover, however, tends to attract fingerprints and looses shine. 2. Screen is 2.0" (compared to Metro's 2.1". Come to think of it, Monte beats Metro in just the looks, otherwise both have the same features with the same OS.) It has a 65k display which has some contrast issues and clarity issues when playing video. 3. Signal Reception, Network Registration, Call voice clarity is excellent. This is what a mobile is actually supposed to do and Monte does it well. 4. Camera is of 2MP with a focal length of 3.7mm. Zoom is not available at a maximum resolution of 1600X1200. This feature is not available in many Samsung phones. I had thought Samsung would change it in this model. But nevermind. For those who are facing problems in saving pictures there is ONLY ONE effective solution- disable 'menu transition effect' (under display settings) then restart phone. Video recording is average at 176X144@15fps. 5. There can be no bad sides to Samsung's UI. It is very simple and intuitive and looks good too. Samsung has also introduced a 'Smart Home' feature which displays several icons right on the desktop for the ease of use. However, the presence of a big clock display in normal display modes (when there's already a smaller clock on the top-left) was unnecessary, or there should have been atleast an option to remove it. You can make custom themes by copying the pictures you like into the phone memory. It DOES NOT support 3rd party themes so don't waste your time and internet. 6. The bestest thing about this phone is the music. Samsung has outdone itself in this feature. The music player is simply superb and easily competes with Sony Ericsson phones of the range of INR 10000 and above. There are several preset equalizer settings (the 'auto' setting is useless as no change can be observed). The earplugs provided have a good bass output and deliver some hard hitting beats. If you are a music lover then this is the CHEAPEST phone for you! 7. I must say that after using Guru Dual Speaker, I was highly disappointed with the phone's speaker. It is an average poor quality speaker and you cannot hear the phone ringing in traffic. I keep it in vibrate but then it drains the battery. Downloaded message tones tend to ring more than once which is irritating. 8. The battery is good. Lasts more or less for 36 hours with heavy use-- calls, music, net surfing, capturing photo/video etc. I'm a very active user and when I mean heavy use, I mean HEAVY USE!!! 9. Video playback is awesome for 3gp formats. However, audio-video sync problems arise when it is in mp4 format. Also, the phone does not support files larger than 150MB. So if you have to watch a movie then split it into parts. 10. Internet is really fast. With EDGE it delivers a really fast mobile internet experience. I have a vodafone connection. It takes about 3mins to download a song of 5MB. You can also install a java app called mTorrent to download torrents.(link- The inbuilt browser is fast enough. I use BOLT browser which is f*cking fast!!(link- With Opera I had some word spacing problems, there were no space between words. Palringo is useless. But the communities option is good with all popular social networking sites. You can watch videos on YouTube in normal quality, as HD is not supported. The playback of the stream was good at first, but nowadays I'm noticing that it has become garbled and jittery. Dunno what the problem is. 11. The Bluetooth is 2.1. What did they upgrade? Slowness?! Don't try to send files larger than 2MB-- you will die of old age. :P 12. Java installs .jar applications directly from memory card just like Nokia. Java applications larger than 750KB are not supported. No java app player like KD Player or TTPod are supported. Newer games like HP7 tend to hang. You can get loads of Java apps here- 13. For connectivity use the 1.5 version of Kies as it is much better in looks and functions compared to the newer 2.0 version which is a complete waste of harddrive space. The data cable is about INR 750 for the original and anywhere between INR 70-150 for a China make. 14. The phone memory is 32MB of which almost a lot is used up by the inbuilt pictures and ringtones that a person rarely uses, but cannot delete them as they are locked. You can expand the external to about 8GB. But remember, the more the memory the more the time it will take to load. 4GB is the best choice. Another thing to remember is that the default camera storage changes to phone memory if the phone is restarted or connected to the computer. You will have to change it manually. A new firmware is probably out. What Samsung needs to do is fix some of the issues mentioned above and also add some more basic functions like call recording etc.

  • blue tooth is too slow when compare to other set in same price........... i am using this set from 3 months it do not support download ....... it has good look and good video clearity but i didnt satisfied with downloading

  • there is a problem with it's camera. It often hangs when taking a picture with the highest resolution(1600x1200). I found a solution for that. Just change the viewfinder mode to "no icons". It might works. If anyone have better solution please let me know.

  • 1000

  • its been a little over a couple of months since i bought this fone... so far d experience has been very good. Seems true value for my money. the only prob being i guess the back cover is pretty loose which i think might be specific to my fone. its battery lasts more than 3 days and Music n FM reception is just awesome.

  • the version of bluetooth shown in spacification v2.1 but actually it is v1.1

  • i think, the problem is not about the size but audio bit rate.This mobile can't play audio files havinag bitrate 320kbps. Just chang bitrate with any converter and try again.

  • Follow these steps. .Make sure before all these steps that internet plan is activated on ur mobile. I think check first this with Rs.5 internet plan. For Rs.5 Airtel is giving 50MB data with one day validity. .First connect ur phone to PC .Then go to start>accessories>communications>new connection wizard. Then a wizard window will open. .click 'next' .select "connect to the internet option" and click 'next'. .select "set up my connection manually" and click 'next'. .select "connect using a dial-up modem" and click 'next'. .write ISP name as Airtel and click 'next'. .write phone number as *999# and click 'next'. .just click 'next'. No need to write anything here. .put a check mark to " Add a shortcut to this connection to my desktop" and just leave it aside. Don't click finish now. .open control panel>Printers and other hardwares>Phone and modem options a window will open with three tabs namely 'Dialing Rules', 'Modems' and 'Advanced'. .click 'Modems'. There click 'Properties'.There select 'Diagnostics' tab and click on 'Query Modem' located on bottom side. Then u can see Response as Sucess in Response box. .Now click on �Advanced� tab and in Extra initialization command box type following matter as it is. AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","airtelgprs.com­","",0,0 .Then click 'OK' and click again on 'OK' in previous window. .Now go to back first window which u left aside and click on 'Finish'. .Now u will see a icon in desktop with a name Airtel .Make double click on that and click on dail. Now ur internet connection is ready.

  • Hi Guys, Yesterday i got this hand set and returned it back to the shop. It cost around 3500 Rs. I found this phone a pathetic, The main function of phone is the receiver speaker quality is very poor. If a person speaks with low voice on the other end, Then the voice u hear on the phone is shaky and broken. It does not qualify for calling purpose. This defeats the main objective. Advantages of this phone: a)Key board keys are very good, this is very good for fast messaging. b) Music quality is fairly decent. c) Phone looks really gr8. d) Camera quality is also good. e) Good Signal coverage Disadvantages a) Call quality is very bad, shaky receiver speaker. b) Loud speaker is very bad, you will not be able to hear until to take ur phone near ur ears.

  • very nice phone

  • very nice phone.

  • very nice phone.

  • Using this mobile for past 5 days , Wat i observe : 1.Awesome battery(1000+mah)...I used to think only nokia gives good battery life but this proved its wrong.. 2.3.5mm jack impressed me a lot. headset sounds so good and looks wise headset rocks.....the answering button is integrated well in it. 3.I think it has 3g as said by samsung website.i noted webpages loading faster..normal phones wont open that fast the web pages.Though did not try on downloading speed. 4.looks-Man it has got killer looks. the best looking mobile currently available at 3700/- . No other mobile looks so good. 5.Bluetooth , though not that fast but ok one compared to sony ericsson . 6.It has many other options such as searching for a particular song in music player,organiser,calender(samsung did not give those in other mobiles),fake call(good one),Advanced Mobile Tracker,Security features as usual samsung rocks with privacy security feature... 7.Music in loudspeaker not that gr8 but who cares with all abv features in it ?? i believe music in mobiles should be listened only in headsets and not in speakers... Finally i can say , 3700/- is sheer value of your money... this is a honest review and people who are abt to buy this mobile, just close your eyes and buy it. No other phone in this price range is so good !! Verdict : 8.5/10

  • When I connect my phone to KIES (updated), and open the 'Tethering' widget, and specify all the settings and click 'connect', I get an error. The screenshot has been posted in the link below.

  • Hi, It seems it has copy paste option in this phone. I just checked it. Works perfectly. Say if you go to memo and type something. Then go to "Options" select "Copy or cut" else just press "4". After that you can mark your text and select copy or cut. Then just go back to menu and select "Messages -> Create Message" and go to msg typing area. Again select "Options" select Paste That's it, done.

  • no, there is no option for copying,cuting and pasting text in messages....dont buy this mobile

  • Hello there Everyone who used Monte Bar GT C3200, I've been using it for last 1 month but i still couldn't manage to transfer any data in to it neither i could send any data to the PC from it!! It says it supports USB 2 ver and it does save stuffs in the Micro SD memory card that it has but as long as these dat r saved can't be transfered to the PC it seems not worthy enough to shout out loud that it supports USB. What exactly did i wrong while trying to transfer da data to PC??!! I did the following; 1. I downloaded the PC suite dat is recommended by SAMSUNG itself dat is; Samsung Kies. 2. I connected the Micro SD memory card through a Card reader...becoz i wasn't given any supported USB cord with my phone. The Samsung Kies says that it will automatically identify once a device is connected but in ma case it never does...so now i'm thinking its the problem with the connectivity method...cable or cord. For your further information i used both the options that were available in the cell phone 'samsung kies suite' and the 'mass storage' but unfortunately none of em could help connecting ma memory card to ma PC!! Now the only question that i have that is; HOW THE HELL WILL I BE ABLE TO CONNECT MY MEMORY CARD WITH THE PC and COULD SAVE MA VALUABLE DATA TO MY PC ...your help will be much appreciated. Thank you and you all take care.

  • Hey i bought Samsung c3200 last month,it was simply awesome...the features in this phone are very good (compared to the price).. It would be good if it has two speaker..but due to single speaker you cannot listen properly in public places,but Earphone speakers are simply awesome..

  • Hi pals, I was reviewing this device for a while thru gsmarena & finally bought it yesterday from a retail dealer store here in SriLanka. Amazing device with great loadsa features. But later on I was surprised to see that the unit I bought does not have a micro USB slot :O( All I have on the side panel/s is the Volume, MemoryCard & Battery slots. But all online reviews/images do confirm that it can be connected via USB! Even the official site confirms it Or is it that the Battery slot is used for the microUSB as well :O) On the settings I do get the 'Data Storage' Option as well. Can someone pls enlighten me, thanks in advance !

  • Its really amazing phone in this price. Total Paisa vasul....

  • 1) Format Factory 2) From local mobile shop. Theoretically any Micro USB cable will work provided latest drivers are installed. I also asked for original, he said its Rs 550. But I bought Chinese one for Rs 80. 3) I use Samsung Kies to connect. New PC studio or PC studio 3 doesn't detect the handset. 4) Headphones are simply awesome with various presets like Pop, Rock, Wide, Surround. One can actually feel the difference. Loudspeaker are not of music quality. If you listen music through speakers then better look for other music phones, but for listening through headphones its way better than other music phones. Also for some specific high quality ringtones the sound is just awesome and can be heard easily. 5) Keypad is spacious, I do not text much, so cant comment much on regular smsing. You do not have to press hard to enter in a key, so can be used with one had easily.

  • @ GETMAN 1) which software did u use for video conversion 2) where did u buy the data cable from ?? 3) did u use kies / npc to connect to PC ??? 4) how's the audio quality from headphones and loudspeaker 5) how is sms experience and ease of texting with one hand ?

  • Watched two and half hour movie of Robot. Awesome battery, could have watched another movie and still have some more left. The movie settings I used for conversion are: 320x240 Data rate: 384 kbps FPS: 18 Total Bitrate: 447kbps Audio Bitrate: 64kbps 22khz sample rate I have tested a HD video converted to upto 1Mbps data rate and 320kbps audio with 44khz sampling. Works smoothly without any problems. An issue I have observed, the video and audio goes out of sync after watching for a few minutes, have to close and open the video file again to wath it in sync. Not a big issue for me since it differs only by a 1-2 seconds.

  • "Samsug New PC Studio" available from the website is different from what we got with our USB data cable cd, that is "Samsung PC studio 3" (new prefix not there). I am talking about the driver cd software Samsung PC studio 3, it checked for update immediately after I installed it and downloaded updates.

  • Is this phone 3G-compatible? The Samsung India website and DOCOMO website say so.

  • Do you mean I need to update 'Samsung NPC'?

  • I do not have any installer of the update, It was downloaded automatically after installing the driver cd. So just click Tools>Check for update...

  • is 3g is compatible in dis phone?dis was selectd as 3g in docomo site?

  • Could you please upload the '19 mb drivers'..

  • I read someone saying that internet cannot be connected through KIES. I just want to say that you CAN connect to internet flawlessly with KIES.

  • Yes, I too have M600 cable. Since this is a new set make sure to update the driver, did you download the 19mb of update? Since it says the usb is unrecognized, the drivers appropriate to the handset are not yet installed, so updating drivers is very important. Since this is the first time I am using a samsung set, I installed whatever is available for it, namely: 1) Driver cd which has Samsung PC Studio 3, updated to latest version 3.2.3 IE2 2) Samsung Kies 1.5.3.10093_82 3) New PC studio 1.5.1.10064_2 downloaded from While writing these version numbers I noticed, Kies last update was in 2009 whereas NPC's last update is in 2010. So if you can download NPC and try it, it might do the trick.

  • Is is an M600 cable? I installed the drivers from the cd I got with cable. Then, I installed KIES and re-started the computer. When I connect the phone, the Windows' task bar says that an un-recognized usb device is connected. My phone automatically connects to the pc and then disconnects itself over and over again. I even master-resetted the phone, but to no avail.

  • The drivers I am talking about are the one which comes in cd with data cable. I installed that cd, it connected to internet and downloaded another 19MB of update. Forget about NPC (New PC Studio) software, its for old phones. Here is the complete walk through of what I did: First installed kies, did not detect, then installed PC studio driver cd, that too did not work. Then another day I installed NPC just to check out, then tried to connect, it worked! Note as fas as I believe NPC is not required at all. I guess a simple restart of PC is all that is required. Also if you are connecting through front USB port, try connecting at the back usb port of CPU. Let us know your results.

  • Yeah, even I bought a china one..the model no. is 'M600'. Where do I get the drivers? BTW, whats NPC?

  • black gold, i got the same. looks very stylish

  • No, it will not work the next day. You have to heat it at 100 degree Celsius in a microwave oven before it can work again.

  • which color looks better and rich dark brown or black gold ??

  • If i put this phone in water by mistake for 1 day , will it work the next day ??

  • please tell me how to unlock Privacy lock

  • What problem are you having with data cable? Did you install the drivers? Actually I bought a cheap china MicroUSB cable and installed the Kies,it did not work initially so I installed NPC. Now it works everytime I connect data cable. Just make sure to select "Samsung Kies" in PC connections settings.

  • Which data cable did you use? And where did you buy it?

  • Do you have an option to actually save the messages on the memory card rather than just backing up. I had Nokia N72 that gave me an option to save the messages to the memory card as well the phone memory. I want a mobile with the same features.

  • Some of the tracks.. especially which are at 320kbps are not supported..

  • Got it.. Charging port is USB to connect the USB cable... KIES too got connected :)

  • Bought this phone today. Just an amazing phone in terms of design and music. Imported VCF contacts from outlook and worked well. I couldnt find the USB port on the phone. Left side has a micro SD card and volume buttons. right side of the phone has a slot for charging. No USB PORT. Also when trying to connect to KIES using Bluetooth, got an error that phone is not supported.

  • Thanks Harshith for the information. ABout font size,if i recieve any call,Disaplay name of the caller is very small. So i just asked whether font size can be increased?

  • and one more thing i would like to confirm before buying this (gr8)phone is that hows the display is it very glaryyy like the nokia 2700c or nokia 5130XM and how it performs under sunlight??? i know at this price point,it looks like,I am asking for just too much!!!! thank you!!!

  • guys can anybdy tel me how can we set paswrd r protect mesages?does it sprt 3g?im usng docmo so can i enjoy 3g?

  • correction: the link is

  • The music quality in the headphones is simply awesome. The quality of the headphones given with this phone are of the highest standard. The bass is gr8 too. There are several preset-modes out of which the '3D surround effect' is the best. Trust me..the preset effects definitely enhance your experience. But on the downside, if you want to hear the music through the external speakers, you'll be slightly disappointed with the volume..but it should do for in-door hearing. Yes, the phone supports java apps. Opera works perfectly fine. ]]It comes with a 1000mah battery..so its way better than other phones in the price range. And the camera is awesome. [FOR DETAILED REVIEW OF THE PHONE, CHECK OUT

  • No, you can't listen to the radio without the earphones. Coming to font, which one are you talking about?..like the font in web pages in the phone browser or the sms-font?

Really Samsung C3200 is value for money, Regarding the USB cable : Yes, there is no usb cable but they had provided the card reader, so we can use it in laptops which has this card reader functionality.

  • have been usin this phone for over a month now. already gave a detailed reiew earlier. abt camera: sumtyms photos of highest resolution are not saved.n none of the remedies mentioned here work all the time. photos are saved only if "Saving.." option appears. if this doesnt happen. easiest thing is to switch to camcorder and again camera and u r done. i hope a firmware update solves this issue. otherwise this is just a fantastic phone.luv it!

  • Could anyone tell me that,while browsing in opera mini, is it can load a large amount of webpage about 400KBytes properly?is it can show full content of that webpage?

  • bought this all new phone for jst 3900 bucks..! nd more than jst satisfied with the features it gives in such a light budget.. The three most impressive features viz. Headphone quality, Superb battery backup and a classy 2MP camera.. the music quality is jst amazing, u can feel the Deepest bass, cool headphones huh..!! next the battery backup is what that will surprise u much, i hav played continuous music with headphones on and volume at 8th level, equalizer set to Rock, and it played for a whooping 15hrs(approx.) non-stop while i ws on a journey.. in between i made calls too, bt thatz wht my Hands-on experience is.. and the camera quality is a classy 1.. ya, it doesnt save pics (i.e. hangs) while in 'superfine' quality and 1600x1200 resolution.. bt works fine when set to 'Fine' quality and same resolution.. moreover, 'Superfine' nd 'Fine' doesnt make such a big diffrnce, so i would appreciate the camera.. Crystal clear images!! internet speed is great, i connected it 2 my laptop via USB.. the phone sports GPRS nd EDGE(Class 12).. m using Virgin GSM nd gettin an avg download speed of 25kbps which is more than enough!! to my surprise, i also found a 'Recycle Bin'! jst in case any of ur contacts, messages, files, etc. gets accidently deleted, u can Restore them frm the Recycle Bin.. great innovative feature i must say.. also u hav gt a backup manager to backup ur contacts nd imp messages.. so what else r u waiting for??? dnt wait a single moment, jst go n get it into ur Pockets!! U can xpect nythng bttr in this price range..!

  • Could anyone please tell me which USB cable to buy? Tell me the name or post a link to it. Thanks.

  • yes you can watch streamin vids :)

  • no dude u dont gt a Usb With the Phone u have to buy it!!!

  • Does USB cable is being provided with this phone in the box or i have to buy it from others ????????

  • Whetr you tube vid. Streaming is possible in this set.?? Reply soon

  • K. Thnk u:) N wat about Text Copy & Paste function..?

  • Just take your mobile to a local mobile shop and ask them for a suitable able. BUT make sure you check it in their computer if it works before buying it. There are many fakes out there in the market..so beware.. You need to download the KIES software from the Samsung website.

  • Thanks Harshith Mannem for answering all my questions. I have one more question any of the C3200 users could help me with info. Can a data cable be purchased separately to connecting to the PC for doing all the operations like moving MP3 / JEPG folders and phone book backups. If so should I install a software in my PC? if so, is the software available in Samsung mobile's website.

  • Plz check Menu > Organiser > Calculator

  • NO, it isn't 3g PHONE!!

  • Yes, you can move the folders as they are. You can delete whatever files you want in the phone itself. You can backup your phonebook to your memory card. SETTINGS >> BACKUP

  • does this phone have 3g?????????????????????

  • i've never seen such quality os in this kind of low end phones.. it is just awesome.. Bluetooth and themes are let down.. but considering the price it's worth it..

  • I have buy C 3200 but i didnot found 'CALCULATOR' in this phone. If any body know about this option plz send a message me on 09835587155.

  • Is is supports 3g..? Bcoz in docomo site it is mentioned as 3g compatible phone. & whether it has text copy & paste function.. Plz reply..

  • I am using Sony walkman mobile.... Planning to pick Samsung c3200... I am so used to connecting my mobile to my PC for downloading MP3 and JPEG files. I understand that C3200 does not come with the software or the data cable to install in the PC for all data management of the handset. I understand that all the downloading can only be done by installing a card reader to my PC (which I am willing to do) Please any one tell me how this works.... Can i move data as folders with several MP3 files or JPEG files to the memory card or can be moved only as MP3 or JPEG files ? If one need to delete any MP3 or JPEG files can it be done from the handset itself or one need to take the memory card out from the handset and do the deletion via PC. Also someone help me with info if phonebook memory backup could be taken? Waiting for the response all Samsung C3200 users Please answer all my questions

  • 1.) I never experienced any slowing down during playing music. But hey, if you use low-quality memory cards, it tends to slow down..but its not the phone's fault. 2.) Yes, you can use it as a modem IF you purchase a data cable. You will also need to download the KIES software from the Samsung website. 3.) As I mentioned in my previous post, the phone comes with a 2GB mem card, a leather pouch, a screen guard and the usual stuff like a charger and ear phones (the ear phones are amazing!!).

  • Please tell me about 1) The music player quality of this phone i.e. does it hang while changing the tracks or not? 2) Can it be used as a modem to connect net with the pc? 3) What are the items in a it's box? (i.e like data cable etc.)

  • I am facing prob while opening inbox & to send sms it is shwing initializing sms can any one facing the prob ,pls send me the solution

  • This phone is the one of the best phones out there in the price range of 3-5k. Yeah, its way better than Nokia 5310 too (i used both of them). First of all, this phone captivates you with its stunning design. The back of the phone is odd..its been designed ergonomically to rest in your hands. Though the external speaker of the phone is on the back, you can still listen properly due to the design of the phone. Coming to the front, the keypad is awesome. Its definitely one of the best out there. I roughly send 25-30 messages everyday and I found the phone flawless in the regards. Coming to the INTERIORS, this phone sports a brand new OS. It offers an experience similar to those of higher-end nokia and sony ericsson phones. You can customize the homepage with all the shortcuts you want. Its of great help in the long run. The menu is easy to navigate and you can enable 3D transition effects which doesn't effect the speed of the phone. My phone has been very responsive and it never hung since the time I bought it, i.e. 3 months back. Though the camera is a low-mega-pixel one, it offers photos of very good quality. On the downside, the phone tends to slow down a little bit when photos are being taken in the highest resolution. Files transferred via bluetooth CAN be directly saved to th external memory. One of the few disadvantages of this phone is that the data transfer through blue tooth is pain-takingly slow. This phone sports a 3.5mm jack and you can use your favorite ear phones. But those prvided by samsung along with this phone are mind-blowing. Thwy are of the highest quality and equal those of sony walkman series. There are various preset equalizer settings and they do add to the hearing experience..especially the "surround effect" setting. I use a 4GB mem card and have 3.6GB of songs and the phone still never slowed down. This phone also offers a very helpful feature..you can search for any song in your playlist or folder by typing its name instead of scrolling for it. JAVA is supported and any app below 1MB can be used. There are some in-built social networking apps such as gmail, facebook, orkut, etc. There's a slo an inbuilt chatting client. Opera browser and Google Maps work perfectly. This phone has a 1000maH battery and it totally impresses you. I talk for around 20 mins, send 30 texts, listen to approx 30 mins music and surf for one hour everyday and the battery lives for 2 days. 3GP and MP4 videos can be played on full screen after resizing them in a computer. Web-surfing it totally fast. But it depends upon your service provider too. Not only opera, but the in-built browser is good too. In it, you can browse both in landscape and portrait modes..which I think is awesome. BUT dictionary mode can't be used while typing while using the web. The signal strength and call clarity are good and people on the other side of the call also didn't complain. But one major disappointment is the lack of call-recording feature. You can't download themes for the phone. But I'm totally in love with the black$green in-built theme. Privacy features are top-notch. You can seperately lock the inbox or the phone book or the memory card with a password too. You can also back-up the messages, contacts, memo and calender events to your memory card. This phone also has a recycle bin. In case you delete any sms or pic or song or contact, it goes to the directly bin. OVERALL, THIS IS A TOTALLY AWESOME PHONE FOR ITS PRICE. ITS FEATURES OVER-SHADOW ITS DISADVANTAGES. this phone is available for Rs.3900 in the market. It comes with a screen-guard, a leather pouch and a 2GB memory card. BUT THERE'S NO SOFTWARE CD OF DATA CABLE IN THE BOX. This phone gives a tough competition for phones even in the 5000 category. TRUST ME, YOU WON'T REGRET A BIT FOR SPENDING MONEY ON THIS PHONE...ITS TOTAL PAISA VASOOL :)

  • * Slow internet connectivity. * Battery standby 2days, talktime 6 -7 hrs.

  • * Slow Bluetooth Connectivity. * Not a great music player even it didn't support some mp3 songs, i dont know for what reason. * Image viewer wont support higher MP pics. * If ur a prepaid user you gonna have hard time with call summary / balance update message which u receive after every call & msg u send, coz that tone cant be stopped or changed that is very annoying. * Data cord & Software CD not included in box. * Even the software is not recognizing the phone when its connected to PC, its recognizing only as removable media. But for this price(4k) its a g8 phone and stunning design.

  • Is its camera always in landscape mode??

  • I have purchased this phone 3 days ago.. I found it very good.. => Its features compared to Nokia 5130xpress music (Privacy Lock, DNSe Sound Engine, Headset Quality is superb than nokia...) => Music is very fine in both ( Loudspeaker and Headset ) => Screen clarity is also superb. => The problem i have found in this phone is.. .. when you start camera and taking pictures at high resolution (1600x1200) then it often hangs. but i also found the solution for it.. ...solution... just start camera and change any setting like turn night shot on and off then take pictures as u want. it won't hang. and the pictures quality are also fine.. So overall.. It is very good phone in its price. I have bought it for 3800 Rs. (Gujarat) and it comes with 2gb microsd card. No data cable is included in box.

  • Thanks dude. U r the best. Can u say abt comparism bw nokia 5130 nd this phone... I lv to hear tht

  • 36 hrs and above..........if u heard song through speakers continously also u get 3hrs of battery back up.good poneeeeeee

  • @newton Battery backup is one day for heay usage.by heavy usage i mean music via earphones for atleast a couple of hours , lots of sms , few calls , a bit of gaming , couple of alarms , atleat half n hour loudspeaker music etc etc... :-) normal usage = 2 days battery backup

  • got this phone today. i got a 4gb micro sd card. 3gb mp3 loaded, result is better than i expected. no problem at all. i also had camera problem; hangin when i took a photo it hanged. menu transition trick worked =) i couldnt find zoom doesn't this phone have zoom feature?

  • PRANAY, Can u say hows the battery backup?

  • Just got this phone the other day, my rate is 5 STAR nice phone. love it

  • @smee i just added 42 songs to a playlist just to confirm ur query. There were no problems with it. Worked fine. And right now i have around 1.5GB of only Mp3 in the phone is handling it quite well!

  • @Nova *mp4 works fine. Full screen view is available.n i found a unique "Mosaic search" feature which would display a few(mostly six) images from different time durations in the video n we can select any part we wanna watch and the video starts from thet point. So we dont have to rewind-fastforward the entire thing. *Internet speed is network dependent n my network has poor speed so cant comment much.But as it has edge net speed of the phone must be good if network supports! *Camera is working fine for me and takes good quality images *On the backside of the box cover 65k QVGA 5.08cm (2") screen is written. but im very sure now that the screen is 265k from the clarity and also same is mentioned everywhere else including this site. @anonymous yes u can connect it as a modem using samsung Kies. But i have not used so not sure. @rohit Search Pranay Bhowmick in facebook :-) @swapan thanks for the info! i dint know that!

  • can this phone load more than 30 songs in a playlist? i used samsung j700 before and that phone was awful when it comes to create and manage playlists. i plan to use this phone for listening mp3s. around 1000 songs will be loaded. can this phone handle it?

  • thanks buddy for your wonderful review.. yeah, i also purchased that brown colour GT C3200.. well, in have no words to explain as it as amazing handset// so give me your email id. i wanna add you in facebook// tk cr buddy/.

  • can i connect dis phn to pc for internet as modem? pls. help me.

  • Wow buddy am blown out by ur review, but plz tel me about internet speed, while downloading songs and videos of more than 5 mb, wats its speed? Is it better than nokia 2700c nd 5130? Is it supports mp4? And last some says in their box, it is written that its screen is 256k but u r saying 65k, why this? Even different sites have given its screen 256k. Plz clear. And plz check out camera prob. Most of the guys facing....

  • Thanks Friend, for ur valuable review. U know i have Nokia 5130. But i want to change it becoz some problem wid it. And i wud like 2 tell u that if u use Nokia n73,n70 and other n series. And if u are in any call and than if u play music player then u can listen the music and ur caller will also listen the music, anyway, I want 2 buy it. I Want only Opera Mini and good camera and great music experience in earphone. Thankssssssssss

  • @swapan *Yes opera mini browser works smoothly and in fullscreen. i have installed the latest version (Version 5.0) *By background music i meant that we can minimize media player. i had mentioned this seemingly obvious thing bcoz in some previous low end samsung mobiles like e2130 we were not able to minimize media player n that was a blunder! *No we cant listen to musc while calling ! ...i think this new service has been launched by some mobile networks service providers where we can have a background music while talkin on phone.

  • Hi, Pranay thanks for ur Review. Again thanks, But friend i have 2 QUESTIONS, 1. Can I download opera mini browser or Can i view full screen on its browser? 2. You write abt Background music, can i use it while calling? Friend please reply me as soon as possible. My email id is [email protected]. Thanksssssssssssssssss.....

  • Thanks for the review feedbacks! @vinay on the box its written 65k but the screen wont disappoint u at all. The screen is bright n clear n actually looks like a 265k! ..n i think its a mistake on the box(i know such mistakes dont happen!) bcoz i have not seen such a bright 65k display.

  • please clarify if it is 256k or just 65k.please check the specifications on box who have bought this phone. please answer me guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • To the guys having problem of phone hanging while taking photos on full resolution or photo not getting saved, plz disable 'menu transition' feature and restart phone...that should solve the problem...

  • I bought this phone. But after two days I've started facing a problem. The camera captures image but doesn't save them. And I can't even save them manually. Any suggestions?

  • thanks yar ur review helping me lotsssssssss.

  • thank u very much, prany. Your reviews help me a lot. It just rushing me to get the ph in my hand :-))

  • Alrite..i got this phone last sunday (for Rs.3800 in Ahmedabad,India)which means almost a week now. First impression - Its awesome. Im more than satisfied! Firstly thanks to all the reviews/comments/replies here that helped me take this decision to buy this really cool handset. I had been using Sony Ericsson k750i since the last 3.5 years...so my comparison would more or less be limited to that. 1.Looks , style n interface Indeed appealing! It feels so good to hold this thing in your hands lolz. its really stylish n light weight n really slim.i got the chocolate colour n it looks cuter than a cadbury! The interface is very intelligently designed keepin in mind the needs of users.hats off to samsung. there are many minor things which will surprise u for good. The "Smart idle" home screen is probably a feature of high-end phones. You can keep shortcuts to anythin on the homescreen like media player,messages, social networkin sites(its inbuilt) , Your buddies(if u want it to be displayed.this is a cool feature and it will notify u about any missed calls or messages from your friend list) The display is cool.On the box its written 65k colors.but still its above average. 2.Media player This certainly did blow my mind off!! i personally feel its better than the walkman series too. The bass effect in earphones is simply awesum.Earphones are similar in looks to the walkman series of sony.Some cool features are *Preset equalizer( normal , pop, dance , jazz, wide , surround,etc) and u can actually feel the difference in sounds when u change it. *Search option - you can search for music files easily .this is very useful *album art , background play , u can give ratings to ur music ,etc etc One thing i dint like is that u cant change tracks with the volume buttons on the side of the phone as i did in my Sony ericsson.But not a big problem as u can do that with navigation keys on the homescreen itself. The loudspeaker is not very loud.its average but not bad.but i listen to earphones n this phone is a banger.the loudness of earphones is sufficient even for the deaf!! lol 3.Camera Camera quality is good. No autofocus or smile shutter etc ..but certainly a useable camera.im satisfied with it.its atleast at par if not better than my Sony ericsson 2MP autofocus camera of k750i. Many of u here have reported that camera hangs but i did not face this prob.good for me :-) 4.Applications Inbuilt dictionary is really useful. Orkut facebook twitter picasa friendster etc are inbuilt though not of much use to me as i use my pc for internet. Instant messenger palringo and google is pre-installed.Mobile prayer is a cool app for the religious ones. FM radio is awesum thanks to the banger earphones. Autotuning was able to find all radio stations. we can record radio n the quality is good. Now about JAVA! ,, this is one thing samsung should improve upon.. We can download n install java games and applications but files larger thn 700kb show error "file too large" ...Also , not all types of formats are supported...many a times "format error" comes. but still im able to install a lot of games n apps after some searchwork on the internet. java engine is good though, racing games like Apshalt n 3D games like Tomb raider are workin smooth! 5.Call n network reception The basic feature of any mobile phone and i found no problems with this till now. calls are loud n clear n network reception is also good. although i cant comment much on this as i live in the heart of the city where i always get full network lolz 6.Battery backup This aspect has been slightly disappointin maybe bcoz i expected more. It takes too long to get fully charged...i think 2 hours atleast or even more..n with heavy usage battery would hardly last 1 day...for normal usage it can be 2 days..My sony ericsson battery was comparatively better whn it was new. But one thing is that battery in this phone is not poor atleast! it is not the best...n not the worst. Now as i m havin a hands-on experience i wud like to share a few more things: 1. the phone never hangs .atleast it did not hang till now.:-) 2.u cannot minimize while playing games. not even if u have received a msg. so i cannot chat n play game simultaneously :-( 2.receiving files on bluetooth works on the background like nokia :-) but while sending files we cant use the phone like sony ericsson :-( 3.messagin is very smooth n fast.keypad is soft :-) :-) 4.the phone interface is fast which is a huge plus point :-) 5.u can chat in sms conveniently using "conversations" option :-) 6.Delivery reports are received as a msg instead of a notification (unlike Sony)which is annoying really :-( 7.java support could have been better..One good thing though is that u can easily quit Java apps just by clickin the red button even when the java file becomes unstable. this is why the phone doesnt hang much. My SE phone used to hang much bcoz of unstable java apps/games. 8.you can create themes but dont expect too much creativity support,but i hardly play with themes etc.so i dont mind! lolz 9.Maximum 40 java apps/games can be installed together and only in phone memory. 10.Default sms capacity is 1000. 11.you can lock messages,My files folder, contacts,call log,memo,calender,task with a password. REALLY cool!! 12. i downloaded the PC software "samsung Kies" but not able to connect to pc using bluetooth.i guess only datacable is supported. Nevertheless ,Overall i lovvve this phone!! n i would surely recommend it to all. My rating : 8.5/10 Thats it! a long review! Hope it helps those who are really interested in buying it. Thank u!

  • Thanks buddy, nw wich mobile should i buy

Even if i have to assign a ringtone to any specific number, I have to convert it into phone memory & then only I can assign the same. The phone memory is nearly full, there are too many ringtones, wallpapers which I really do not wish to keep but I am not able to delete the same. Now my question is how do I increase my phone memory or how do i erase the phone data,not necessary for me?

  • Hi all... I bought this phone 2 days ago and there are some advantages and disadvantages associated with it... Advantages: 1. The sound quality in headphone is awsome and uncomparable to similar ranged nokia phones....it is truly fantastic. 2. The messaging menu gives a very nice and fast interface and also there is a conversation folder which makes the environment of chatting. 3. The processing is quite faster as compared to older samsung phones like s3310. 4. Like all other samsung phones it also has privacy lock system for messaging and other fields. 5. The fabulous feature for saving messages,contacts,etc in memory card. Disadvantages: 1. The connectivity to pc for internet is a problem but i hope it will end soon when there will be some softwares released for that. 2. The camera in 1600*1200 pixels get hanged when taking pictures and the picture could not be saved. I hope the above info will help you in deciding the phone to purchase or not. Do reply if anyone get rid of the above 2 problems... my email id is ([email protected])

  • Nice review buddy, I have this phone and i used email after your suggestions. The main disadvantage is Kies software. Earlier Version NPS is fantastic but this Kies sucks you. 1. Phone Detection is too hard with Kies. 2. Kies is bulky software. around 150 MB. I don't know why. 3. Worst GUI 4. You can't send sms through Kies. with NPS you can. 5. No Internet Connection wingets available. With NPS you can connect internet with ease. 5. Your computer become slow with Kies. 6. You can't pair up through Bluetooth with Kies. NPS doing fantastic. All disadvantage is for Kies software provided by Samsung. Even if you brought higher end phone, problem remain same with all new samsung phones.

  • Dear friends, first of all thanks to all of the user who shared their experiences about c3200, because wheneve i purchase a new set i must read ur opinions. I also buy this set 1 week ago. Its really an awsome set. samsung has been made lot of difference in this set compare to their previous model like... backgroung music play is enabled. better java support eg. now support .jar files instead of .jad file. recycle bin option is good backup feature is also great in this set by which u can save thousands of contacts and msgs in ur memory card. sound quality is awsome color display is good camera result is better than other nokia 2mp cam battry backup is for 2 days after heavy use. overall a great stylish phone. regards

  • Does FM work on speakerphone?

  • the headphone in C3200 is simply... it is provided with kernel type headset... bass quality is good, may not be as good as sony walkphones... overall this is nice cell at an affordable price.. thanks... :-)

  • no buddy... the files in C3200 can directly be saved in memory card.. you need not copy from your phone to memory... all you need to is go to SETTINGS>MEMORY>DEFAULT MEMORY- MEMORY CARD/// so go and get this phone... thanks...soheil

  • i bought this phone few days back.. all i can say is that this phone is awesome and stylish, soft keypad, advanced music features..nice sound. even GPRS speed is good,, easy to hold as well fine voice clarity... To all friends i recommend you this to purchase this phone-as also it comes in an affordable price/// i tried nokia, sony ericsson...etc// but finally voted samsung...... a big thanks to the workmanship and designers at samsung..... i rate it 10 out of 10///// thanks to all my friends....

  • I bought this phone 3 days back and I love it !!! It is stylish yet simple. Has very good features for such a price. Keys are wide and soft. Very good for a frequent texter. The music in earphone is AWESOME. As good as Sony Ericcson Walkman Series phones. Comes with in-ear earphones with great bass effect. The UI is easy and fast. The screen and its resolution are very good. Comes with a 2GB SanDisk microsd card and leather pouch. No data cable provided and the phone is available only in Dark Brown color in India. Awesome phone at this range. Far better than Nokia phones whose reliability have gone down with too many software bugs. Well done Samsung. Keep up the good work.

  • in 3200 the files recieved via bluetooth are saved in memory card or the inbuilt phone memory just like s3310??? in s3310 we cannot recieve more files since we have to time and again transfer the file from phone memory to memory card.. is that the same case with c3200...please answer as m planning to buy one... and what about the music quality in earphones is it better than nokia 5130...

  • howz d earphone? is it earbugs or normal headphone? howz d bass quality in it?

  • how is C3200 loudspeaker quality and earphone quality in terms of loudness

  • how is C3200 loudspeaker quality and earphone quality in terms of loudness

  • Hey guys, What's up just thinking to buy the phone seriously go for it, since having the good quality sound, clearity in 2mp camera, the sttylish look and even more. You cannot buy this type of fone even in nokia as nokia is not the right to provide such type of featurefull phone in just Rs.3800. don't think the ever rocking phone , go for it.

  • Dear Sir, 1. If u need something louder, go buy a jukebox or a Fake Chinese phone for Rs. 3000 maybe. 2. Buy the best phone in the world, fill it to capacity with music & i bet it would get hanged or slow down to death. This is arguably the best budget phone available in market today. And it comes from Samsung, the leading phone sellers now. So plz dont post misleading comments & let people decide what they wanna buy.

  • I bought the phone for Rs. 3890 yesterday for my father. Definitely the best phone under Rs. 4000. Feature packed, good looking, feels good in hand. Camera is nice minus a flash but u really cant expect a Flash at this price. Good for music with 2 GB in box memory & FM recording. 8 java games & other handy applications.... Camera features are better than my HTC Smart. Really.... My first samsung phone and i must say i'm really impressed..... Great job Samsung :)

  • I purchased this mobile alone 2 weeks back. Impressive points about this phone: 1. It's got an fanatastic speaker volume - almost entire room of 10 x 10 can listen to the music. 2. Audio clarity is lovely. 3. It feels comfertable to operate the buttons as the keypad is wide. 4. My experiance about the battery backup - I charge it once in 2 days. With this I am able to talk for nearly 2 hours with battery consumtion of 30% (mean the battery indicator bar is exhausted by 40% only) 5. Much satisfied with the display screen size. But can;t be a comparison as most phone these days have this size of display screen. This inexpensive phone is much better than most of the expensive phone i ever had. I would not refer it to people who use internet /gprs more frequently on phone since the web page display in other phones are much better. Frequent caller and long time talker and music lover, this is the phone for you :-)

  • Yesturday I took this phone and I am really dissapointed about the phone. The sound quality is good in earphone but loudspeaker volume is very low. The phone supports 8GB memory, when added full memory with music, the music player will just hangs and restarts abruptly... I don't recommend this phone. please don't but this phone.

  • Hey, i am planning to buy this unit but i just wanna know first if when full charged and mp3 player is on, how long does the battery last? Does it really sound superb with or without headset? If the answers to my questions are all negative, would you mind suggesting phones with superb sound quality,long-lasting battery, and most importantly ECONOMICAL? Experience-based opinions and answers are much appreciated and considered. It might dictate my decision, LOL! THANKS! : ]
