Samsung E2550 Monte Slider - User Reviews

But guys just for setting a full mode wallpaper,can i hide operator logo,dates and times from standby screen ??? Reply pls !

  • good phone.have lots of facilities comparing to its price.talking time is also big than other ones..(Nokia w2220).dont worry to buy it.

  • can u please tell me the whole step for making for this phone possible to download large jar files...pls rply..a.s.a.p

  • eAAC + is not decoded properly, can be heard only through AAC decoders without the high frequencies. No RDS in radio.

  • no back ground settings for music player. video won't play in full scerene mode. it is waste

  • Can vdo be played through fullscreen ? Does it support mp4 ?

  • Can vdo be played in full screen ? Does it support mp4 ?

  • Is it Dual Sim??

  • Please NOTE: this phone charges from the USB connection, if a powered connection.

  • Change your connection setting in the phone from PC Suit to mass storage. Then Windows Media Player in the image mode will sync with your phone as though it is a flash/stick/thumb (How many more names?) drive. This will allow you to upload and down load your images from your phone.

  • I am sorry to hear of your problem. I too have found that the samsung pc suit software is !@#$%^&*. BUT! change your connection typre to mass storage. Then both the phone and memory card will be accessable by windows operating software. allowing you to move data between the phone and PC. ALSO Windows Media player 10 or later will allow sync with the phone.

  • PS I paid R499 (South African Rand for the phone, about $70. But note 100% import duty on cellphones in SA)

  • I baught the phone after my phones got stolen as a stand in. My verdict: Steady, reliable, great sound quality, Way improofed battery life. A decent phone that sits easy in the hand, but the slider is stiff. So I don't think it will loosen easily. A good phone at a good price.

  • well its a good phone for students !! i am also a student ! the applications of the phone are not so good but it is a good phone !!

  • it the good phone because i am using it am feeling good with phone,some people think this very costly but it is not costly but it looks so attractive

  • I'm a student. I'm thinking of buying this phone. But I'm afraid to buy because some people say that the slider is loosening sometimes. I want the help of you guys! Is it a good phone? Do you recommend it to me? Thanks in advance!

  • It is very nice phone.

  • Samsung is better than Micromax Q55 bling bro. Q55 is a ladies phone!

  • I'm in options of Samsung E2550 and micromax Q55. Any one say which is the best

  • It s Awesom Mobile just i Gift to my Girlfriend and she use dis one and connect with pc also through Datacable

  • Bro can u tell me the full procedure

  • i cant listen to music player with the use of my headset i dont know what to do but when i'm listening to radio i can listen to it can u pls help me to my problem

  • how can i change my message tone?

  • Not possible

  • hello, you can download jar files from wap.getjar.com to increase the maximum jar file that can be downloadable the code is *#52828378# then go to ota test keep 1000kb or more you like, now you can download large file apps easily, i got a 1mb dictionary.

  • This phone is the biggest load of crap ever DO NOT BUY IT - It will not connect to any pc via bluetooth due to the faulty drivers/software that samsung provide, and as for their customer service/support THERE IS NONE. They ignore any attempt at contacting them about this problem

  • thanku

  • it's nice but battery low and volume alos low and video also low quality affordale price is 2500.

  • I bought this phone about three weeks ago and its working pretty well. The loudspeaker is on the rear instead of the earpiece like most Samsung. But my slider is loose its playing around, battery terminal is loose I think its because the distance from the battery and rear cover is quite big i don't know who else has that problem as as well. i cant walk a km without it going off. I'm not saying its a rubbish phone but be sure to check the slider before u hand over the money. On the other hand, its amazing. Very simple and convenient

  • be carefull as this phone maybe considered to be a phone used by an OAP and may reflect on image whilst using........english is a wonderfull language.

  • amsung e2550 is a nice fone, but when i use the music and when i exit that, it will not stand by..

  • careful everyone an OAP is about to considering buying this phone !!!

  • careful everyone an OAP is about to cosider buying this phone !!!

  • carefuly everyone an oap is about to cosider buying this phone !!!

  • you can change the message tone and you can minimize the playing music.

  • just bought it for less than �30. simple to use. good battery life. excellent value for money.

  • good but you have to make it more simpler in handling

  • u can easily change ringtones,go to file manager,in mp3 songs--check option--set as rintone or u can go to seetings then profiles-then options,edit,change the ringtone,very simple.

  • same problem here

  • If you plan to install several apps on this phone, don't bother. Samsung (most of their phones) have a 300kb .jar file limit. Anything over that size and it will not install. No real way to get around. >.

  • The bad: The handset feels cheap and flimsy as though if it were dropped, that would be the end of it. You can't change your message tone. You can't minimise the music player. The menu looks old and is very static. The d-pad feels like a toy phone. On the other hand, if you want a phone that has bluetooth, mp3 and radio --very basic, simple features and don't mind the cons, then this is a good phone with an all right price.

  • How to set Aazan application? I have set the time but not working......

  • where will I find the facility for changing ringtones. Cant find it either in applications or settings ?????????????

  • how many hours does it take in mp3 listening ?

  • does this have 3.5 socket hand set? because i'm going to buy it

  • first copy the ringtone to phone & then set as ring tone......

  • this phone take photo digital zoom how much?

  • the phone is good but they should have included 3G in the Data of the phone

  • the phone is good but they should have included 3G in the Data of the phone

  • It is a good phone but its inter memory is very low and it also not supports 3gp format.it has not background playing.

  • A clear case of misleading advertising by Orange UK. If someone buys a phone and part of the reason for buying it is that it is advertised as having RDS Radio then the consumer should be entitled to a refund of the cost of the phone minus the airtime top up. The MMS is faulty too on this phone in that if you try adding an mp3 of a size to fit in the mmns it says that mp3 is not compatible with the mms which is very odd these days especially if the mp3 has no DRM protection. This was less than 15k in size.

  • this phone does not have an rds radio . its only a standard radio .

  • its a very nice handset....i alwez love a slide one...nd i jus love my handset...

  • Awesome phone ! I buy it yesterday, but my colour is soft pink.

  • Superb phone & User friendly...

  • hi,here in india we have regional langauges in it,but iam not sure about other countries.

  • Hi guys please let me know what languages are available, can I have a full list from someone? THANKS

  • its an awsom mobile,with all the usefull features,and in reasonable cost. i liked it a lotttttttt.

  • man,though it doesnt got 3g,it got edge,mp4 video recording,fm recording,dnse,bluetooth,theme creator,great camera,great lcd display that too for very lesser price,that is less than $80.

  • Seriously? In this day and age what is the point of even bringing a phone of such poor calibar to the drawing board, let alone actually having the poor judgement to put it into production? Bearing in mind the ammount people rely on their phones and the nature of things they are used for, and taking into account the fact that you can pick up higher spec phones for the same or less money I find it astounding that this ever made it off the work bench. Its not even 3G, and lets face it thats more or less a pre requisite for all phones rite now (or at least the ones that should be made) even purpose built low spec basic use handsets. And I say this as a firm beleiver that Samsung are quite possibley the best all round electrical manufacturer on the planet.

  • no

  • no

  • this phone got torch light?

  • is this phone good or???

  • very good phone i like very much any way that phone is a good phone

  • of course u can easily by pressing the middle button and OK. so easy

  • plz help.....if the keypad is locked....nd i want to unlock it...is there any solution to unlock it without opening the slider......

  • well guys i have found the solution, you can not silence it, but still you can reduce the vloume down using the middle button.. this is even better than silencing so you can reduce till it becomes silent :)
