  • it's great .it is my dream.Iwant it .who will bye it for me?please

  • Hye guys . I just about to buy this phone but after i read some of the opinion that given by them , it's make me feel .... blur ??? is it a good phone or not ?? i dont wanna buy a bad phone !! Is this a bad phone or whut ??? can anybody answer me !! i like the size and colour . but how about the function ??

  • it is black!!

  • i want it!!!! i think its great......mp3,video,camera!!! all i need + more

  • Is there a just black version?

  • i like it

  • hello to persons who works in samsung inc in my opinion samsung E860 is a very beautifull phone and its so advanced but the single problem in it is that it doesent have enough memory many other of your phones are the same like d500 please check it and apply more size for memory in them or included memory be successful (Farbod from iran)

  • Mine is dark silver and black

  • why is the photo completely black on the pic for the specification pic but sliver and black on the pics??? wat colour is it really??

  • Hi! Just want to say that the store gave me a new phone and doesn't have any problem!

  • I bought yesterday this phone, but I noticed that the camera sometimes freezes. Does anyone have this problem? I'll go today to the store for an exchange or software update... I'll post later what happened...

  • I get this fone in Slovenia, 4 mounth back... but i wasn`t happy. I missed one inportatn function; if someone was calling u, and u dont`t want to answer the fone, u can not cancel ringing...just cant, if u press the red button, call endend...

  • Man, I really dont get how un user friendly this phone is. Dont the manufacturers look around at what works, what peolpe like & dislike etc?? I have had my phone for two days and already I regret getting it. Sure it's small & good looking, but I am sure they could improve the funtionality by a long way. (my infared & vodafone options dont seem to be working either?? Look at the Nokia 3650; an ugly beast of a phone, but man is it a pleasure to use.

  • the phone is great except the infra red. i can't seem to get it working properly and that's a bummer.

  • Erm... I have the phone for almost three months now and i kinda hate it... you cannot connect it to the comp unless you have outlook 7 (linux discrimination) the infrared is useless, the software is from vodafone only and it sux, the battery flats out in an instant, not to mention the problem of gprs: whenever your download more than 2.5 mb ar there goes 2.5mb through your browser, the connection fail. The problem is in slovenia and austria and all the contries that have these phones with vodafone software. really disappointed. and yes, the phone has space for around 200 SMS + SIM.

  • Samsung E_860 is the best samsung phone ever maked!!!I get this moby before one month,and trust me,it is not dispoint me.It funkcional perfect!!!big down for me is:NO CARDSLOT,but gays this moby have 88MB shared memory!!1That is enough!!! I just don,t know why I can,t activated Infrared port!!!I never see better camera on phone!!!It is brilliant!!! Buy this phone,you will be happy!!!Sorry about my english but i am from Bosnia and Herzegovina and i can not speak very well!!!!VIVA LA SGH E-860

  • Does any body now where could i get softwere for this phone???????

  • hey eveyone, i just wanted to say, that the E860 is the BEST phone. Its is SO much smaller than the D600 and the D600 is disgusting compared to the E860 as the D600 is SO square. ANd the E860 is got such a good shape!!!!!!!!!!11

  • i think the E860 is a fabulous phone as it is good looking, got good features. And is easy to slide up and down, as it is so brillianty done. The only problem with the phone is the menu. I think that it should have more colour and funky movements. But other wise u should definaltly get it.

  • Once again, Samsung creates a great phone but doesn't pay attention to details. They're such in a hurry to slap together a phone and package it and sell it, that they don't bother using common sense. I almost bought this phone but didn't because I tried it out and the phonebook doesn't allow multiple entries within a single name. This was a problem with phones in the mid 90's but should Not even remotely be a problem now days.

  • One big downer...can you drive in your car and call using a voice command (i.e. voice calling) ??. No, I cannot find ANY reference to it. THis is the ONLY reason why I cannot see myself getting this phone.

  • the reason why your battery gets flat quickly is apparantly because these new phones you must never charge longer when the battery is full. apparantly only for 2 - 3 hours. Once its full, take it off emmediatly. If you charge it to long, the battery runs out and then resets itself to the normal lasting hours again.

  • the phone is good but the sound of the mp3 are a bit soft. never the less, you can definitly compare the E860 with the D500.So, what are you waiting for go get you samsung E860!!!!!!!!!

  • why is the battery getting flat quickly. i don't know if i'm theonly one experiencing this.other than that i don't regret buying this phone its amazing.

  • The phone is better then d500, I like the rotating camera and the battery is ok, 3 to 4 days. the plastic on back is very soft, sensitiv.

  • I find that it's not that user friendly, camera's also a bit slow, and battery is very bad, also the bluetooth is very slow, my E340 has much faster bluetooth that this! But it's not such a bad phone

  • Great phone, but infrared port doesn`t work :S

  • Can anyone tell me how to clear or delete the 'recent recipient' list when you send an mms?

  • This phone is the best ever!!!It has infrared port , bluetooth ....good camera ...please buy it ...

  • The phone is perfectly good,and I want to buy it.

  • i love very much this phone

  • well, it says no card slot, thats a big down for me. but looks like one for the sophisticated mind. i like the design, but heck, not for my lifestyle.

  • price in suriname is $1299.85 with sim

  • mmm... i was thinking of buying this phone. so i need some information on this phone. can anyone tell me, how many smses can this phone store??? and how long can the video take??? and can the camera zoom??? and is the keys nice to press??? and does it scratch easily??? and does it caome with a cover and a set of hands free??? please reply!!!!!!! i will really love you if you do!!!

  • It cost Rs.13000

  • has this phone got a zoom and bluetooth i want one for xmas

  • Hi. I'm getting this phone as soon as they have stock, it's soled out already! Can anyone pls tell me how many smses can be saved on the phone? The X600 I have now saves 200 and 20 on the sim.

  • one of The Best Phone !!!

  • This is what I call, A Beauty. It is for matured mind.

  • I really like this phone (Samsung E860) my friend used to own this...but unfortunately..i dont have money to buy this one...hope Samsung would make a new model that has a complete features with FM and cam with long hour recoding video but...a very affordable one.

  • does this phone have 1 hour video recording like the d500/600? cheerz

  • Wow, this is a "must have".I am presently using E810, and in less than a week's time, i will be having this 'beauty'.Well done Samsung!

  • i am a dealer and i think this phone has a good price for its looks and features, some ppl mite need to get to know their phones b4 having a fit

  • to change the view of the camera to upright press the volume keys on the sside of the handset

  • i like this phone its just that the camera is upside down when it is by the flash, is this only with my phone or wat?

  • Why do you need ems when you have mms ems is crap , mms offers you more options of what you`re willing to sent, if you want mms includes ems.........

  • I cant belive it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Iam still waiting for answer!!!

  • Samsung has a habit of making phones with huge internal memory without any card slot

  • yami maybe u know has this phone EMS???

  • I just saw it on Vodafone , I think this phone is great, i`m willing to buy it , on Vodafone it`s around 250 Euros, I think it does worth the money, it is a copy of e800 but with the d500`s performances. At the moment I have a Nokia 6670 but I`m so interested in this phone, I`ll soon have it.

  • has this phone eeeemmmmssss?????? and why not??

  • 180 degree rotating camera :S whats that ?? And how much is it and more PICS PLEASE FRONT BAK AND SIDEWAYS

  • anybody know has this phone EMS and why not???

  • my friend has this phone and when she showed me i woz very impressed

  • a samsung in the 5Q. !!! excellent samsung seems to travel ahead with the same old design.... all samsung phones look alike.... no difference at all ..... come on samsung u have the technology, go for the design now....

  • how can it come out in 5th quarter of 2005, or has time travel changed things

  • nice phone but i still beg to differ from all the other comments (found on other phone comments)regarding the D500. It is if not the best phone, close to being so. So please before critising think becuase its obvious that if u drop the phone it will break. The D500 is still in a class of its own

  • Soundtech is selling in Cyprus Samsung E860 since 1st week of October. It will be one of the best mobiles as it is similar to D500 (same spec) but with Rotating Camera. Strongly suggesting it!
