  • this phone is quadri band

  • Sound is superb and connectivity is quite good. I can even charge it with my car stereo using the usb cable. Still have it and I won't change it for a while.

  • overall this phone looks pretty awesome but it lacks in being user friendly and as of now is kind of obsolete technology which makes some of its features a little more difficult to use now days but for a penny its worth it, its located at cell one, cingular, and t mobile

  • Agreed, F250 has wonderful sound, very nice, love it.

  • Yes, this is a very good phone, super quality sound for music and radio. My favourite mobile phone.

  • its a very sweet phone to use ;)

  • it is avery good phone and beautiful i lost mine last year on the 24 of december and i wish i could trace it back

  • why only expandable to 2gb? has anyone ever tried to put a 4 or 8 gb microsd card in one of these?

  • just erase your pics:)

  • firstly i thought it was very good but after use this phone i believe that its not gud bcoz i take 10 to 12 photos in the phone the phone gets stuck again and again how to solve this problem

  • well, let's see... it's a great phone, it's features work great(except for a little trouble that happens when you are listening music with the headphones and you recieve a sms; the music starts playing out loud in the speaker and you'll have to reboot the phone to fix that), but what seems to annoy people is the purple (or pink) theme that CAN'T be changed... in my opinion considering the technology that this phone has (no 3g, no wireless, no tuch, etc.) this is a trustful phone and from 1 to 10 i give it an 8,5.

  • I have this phone and i hear that everyone said that its perfect and all that. but ive never use it lol explaine me all the features! how can i used more

  • the phone is great...except that the purple theme is permanent.

  • I've got this mobile phone for 1 year and a half, and for me is the most important thing to me , cause i've got an samsung i450, and a w595 and they all failed, but this one , even in the water was and works perfectly...=) Now i've got and htc diamond but it's not because of that , that i will let this off

  • Oh, and the awfull pink/purple theme cannot be change. The phone doesn't support themes!!!!

  • am jaya from Mauritius..i love this mobilephone

  • hi..am using this mobile for 1 year..its very nice..the most amasing thing it that there is reject list which is very helpfull

  • I really love this phone but I'm not biased. I enjoy the music features. This phone handles music almost as well as media players on a computer! The calendar and organiser is awesome, java means Opera mini! but 5 Beta doesn't work properly with it, hopefully opera 5 will work. It works great with getting my emails, the camera quality could be better but the picture editing feature makes up for it a bit though you can only edit pictures that you take with the phone's camera. The pc sync help keeps your contacts backed up as well as texts and appointments. The phone is usable as a modem and the maximum of 2Gig does not show files over 52 Mb total folder size even though the music player plays it. This means you can't bluetooth some files from your phone. Overall I suppose most of these features can be found on lots of phones but the price range of the samsung f250 does give it an edge as well as the music capabilities. If you love music you will love this phone. Oh the battery life stinks when you use the internet alot.

  • its a very nice phone as am using it..n we can even black list those contact numbers which are as nightmare..

  • wow horrible pink screen ?

  • Nice phone, i had it for about eight months untill the screen broke. The screen is too soft.

  • not a good phone!

  • the f250 will look good on the out side but after a while it will start to malfunction.for me it all started with my memory card and then the phone

  • Nice phone....cool desing but !!! congratulations SAMSUNG !!!!

  • ok thanks for the expandible memory insite

  • No it does not have the capabilities for 4 or 8 g memory

  • this phone is great. ive had it for almost 2 years. its quite strong, dropped it a million times, its been dropped in the pool, still working fine. Compared to phones these days, the features arent that good. its a good phone but looking to buy a new phone, getting bored with this (:

  • hello... is this fone by anychance capable of using a 4 or 8 gig memory card? your answer will be quite helfull, thanks for any future answer.

  • its really a good fone, only that its has a 65k display which "turns-off" the fones beauty! misic-wise, its also good but i think it needs a little improvement (album covers should be displayed). (^_^)

  • the phone is a good fone but the slide strip in mines is damage where can i get 1 please help

  • ya,ths fone is jam packd wit featurez! so dnt wori. . coz u cn download operamini 4rm da 4nes browser pluz u cn get wapsitez there! i am usin operamini on my f250. . .

  • I just got this phone and i wanted to know if i can download opera mini and transfer it to the phone or do i have to go online with the phone browser and download it there? Also are there any websites where i can get applications for this type of phone? ...thanks in advance

  • samsung F 250 is very good phone style.....

  • i did have this phone and the main board is broken

  • Yes, a very strong phone indeed but, if you leave it deep inside your locker with all the books there, the prolonged pressure easily cracks the screen like mine did. I still love it though.

  • voice is not good at all.

  • This phone is hot go buy it !!!

  • i love this phone very much...but there's only one thing that bothers me...the housing...mine have some srcatches...the samsung should produce phone housings for replacemet if theres scratches of whatever...

  • GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 !!!!

  • how do I open the phone to get the sim card out?

  • i want to know can i still get the phone if i still want to buy it

  • hey anonymous, it doesnt matter if the phone is an outdated model or the latest model, even lyk me I use a handphone e251 samsung, and i dont really care, as long I have an ipod, and mp3 player, it's enough, I just use my phone for calls and messages .. dat's it

  • I have been using this phone over a week. I have to say, i'm a little dissapointed about the calendar event alarm, it just beep 1 second with a low volume tone and if you are not able to see that you can say goodbye to your event, or task, or appointment, or whatever you have to do and that miss the purpose of having a calendar wich is to remind you that kind of things. I still can't make the sms tones to sound just one time, i mean, I loaded one mp3 tone of 3secs in the phone and when an sms incomes the tone repeats for about 9 seconds, I don't know why is that, but i don't think it can be other way. Anyway, Taking about music, i like it very much, the music player and the radio, and it allows you to write and read sms and do other things while playing music, this is a great point in favor. I would like words on the menu and sms to be smaller and thiner so they can fit in the screen size. But, it is ok, it's a good phone despite those details.

  • this is the best and strongest phone i have ever seen. my phone droped on a marble and tiled floor sometimes from a heigt of 2 metres or more for at least more than 50 times but its stl perfectly funtional and i am writing this review with it! (honest and true storie) i mostly enjoy music recognisation on this phone...

  • Can anyone tell me how to set up an e-mail on my samsung f250 plz my e-mail address is [email protected]

  • got this phone on my upgrade. it's a good phone, nothing amazing but what do you expect from a budget phone? unfortunatly it went through the wash, in using a N81 now but jah, i miss my Samsung spite the not so impressive graphics and the fact that you can't run more than 1 application at a time. i live for my music and this phone is amazing, i would go as far to say its better than alot of walkman phones aswell as Xpress musics.

  • i am a celebrety and i bought this cell phone because i thought its a good phone but when i wanted some things i never gave me it starts saying it an error and sometimes it hangs up..!!! tooo... so i wanted samsung to pleazz.... remake this phone and fill up ur mistakes..!!! pleazz.... thank you

  • hi, ive had this phone for a while now!!! I think its a great phone. Nice big numbers!! lovely phone!!

  • The phone at first is very good, but after having the phone for a while, it starts having problems. It's a stunning phone, but I don't consider it as a good phone. Rather look at Nokia's

  • this fone is cooooooooooooool. it looks sophisticated. black is in 4 this fone. scoop scoop!

  • Can somebody plz help me. The display setting in E250 has black & white in the skin section for the reading of text 2 b in either black or white, ok what i want to know can that be done with the F250, i have 1 & the screen makes my texts so out of touch any help will be good thanx

  • Sorry it's 0206 not 0208.

  • Everyone, this phone sounds real loud once you incorporate the Speaker codes. Type *#0208*8378# go to H/W test - Audio Settings - MP3 SPK then input 15 on ear gain. Very clear sound too. Don't change any other settings. It's sort of like RegEdit in windows. You might get an impression that the speaker is about to burst but just ignore it. If you feel the speaker after playing songs, it feels very hot.

  • I have Opera Mini but not Teashark.

  • huh? my samsung f250 has 2 java files that are in excess of 220 kb. My mom's Samsung M120 only supports 100 kb though.

  • Great Phone with Great Battery Life...reception is awesome...very easy to unlocked and to set up with North America Carrier AT&T.

  • Can any one tell me how to minimize or delete the time/date display bar on front screen? It's too big it messes up the whole wallpaper! By the way, is there any signal to let you know that you are charging (for example the battery moves up and down?)

  • thank you dear anonymous but someone said it cant run .jar files and the limit of java file is 100 kb and have you tried playing opera mini & teashark on your f250 asking this quistion because i have installed both the browsers in my w200i they are .jar and definately over 100 kb so please clarify in detail & please reply soon

  • forgot to say in last message comes with all original accessories and box

  • Dear ashwini,i think this phone is perfect for u and will satisfy all your needs..its price in India is about 6000 bucks which is very cheap compared to the features it offers..the f250 has many features like a call blocker where you can add the numbers of people whose calls u dont wanna receive and the phone just blocks the call..same for the smses...nd many other features like music recognition which is my favourite function...u can install teashark on this phone but i will reccomend you to use operamini which is better than teashark..

  • how do you use any of those codes you are posting? im new to these things. thanks.

  • i was asking the price of f250 i presently have a se w200i and i want to buy a new music phone with a slider form factor at least a 1.3 mp camera with video recording bluetooth in low budget and as someone said does teashark run on it Piyush please reply

  • please, does anybody know if you can record video directly to the memory card or as e250, do you have to save it first in the built-in memory and then pass it to the memory card???????? if you don't mind, mail to [email protected] Thanks!

  • I bought this phone 4 months ago.. And the Bad or good Bad: -Low Loudspeaker -No themes -Poor quality display just 65K -Memory seems like separated from phone, so u need to move stuff from memory to phone if u want to use as wallpaper, ring tone, edit them, etc. Not connected easily - Cad viewer images ig u put in memory card, u should press back button each time u want go to next pic - Not allowed to install any .Jar or .Jad files, u need to download the straightly from internet (but it must smaller than (maybe) 100KB -No any document viewer.. -limited songs in play list -I cant find my phone could persist 4 days without any charging..??? good: -Nice sound through earphone -2 types earphone (include 3.5 mm audio output jack) -Big display -Very Nice Body design, many people got duped n think i have a very expensive mobile phone... haha - NICE PRICE!! Cheap!! -Not Bad Quality of camera n video -Good security But I think I'll find any other phone later, because i need a phone that really compatible with JAVA, and easily installed .jad or .jar files.. as my project in my departement...

  • negative points of this cellular, no themese changeable, no good voice of speaker for listen music, positive and plus points, beautiful dual clock style option available for set on screen,its so fantastic to listen music but through handsfree,ringtone and message tones are loudful (depend on tone).camera is also good for snaps and videos, the plus point is battery,once fully charged,so then it works upto 4 days, the most important having so cuty ,attractive style.

  • go to the folder of music or sound and there open the memory card option,then press button of option ,there you will see the option MOVE.by this option you can move your music or tone or whatever from memory card to phone memory.and also there is option for set as ringtone.

  • move the tones or music from your memory card to phone memory, and then you can chose it as your ring tone without any dificulty. and also then you can chose it as your messenge tone

  • its so easy to use music file in memory card as ring tone, just select the tone and move it from memory card to phone memory.and then select the tone whatever you like. any questions so anytime i am available for give a guideline .the music is too good, just it depend on tones quality, the camera is also not bad, but i dont know why peoples have bad experiances.

  • i've bought tis phone this month.. but my radio can't be functioned even i plugged my s20 pin handset.. my radio can be function only if i plug the 3.5mm headset.. why is it?

  • I love this phone! I've had it now. The speaker volume when you buy it is STUPID! But, you just have to enter *0206*8378# then you just press the H/W Test then Select MP3 SPK and change to 15. Such a big difference. I also love how I can pair with people via bluetooth and browse their files. My favorite pastime has become going to malls,supermarkets,etc. and pairing with people if they get the passcode which is one correct then obtaining music files (but I don't do this anymore since it's copyright infringement) and some images then deleting all their files. So fun.

Pretty much all of the phones that I've ever had, none of them are sold by T-Mobile, but they're T-mobile compatible. So I call them every time I switch a new phone and they'll just reset it. Use your home phone to call.

  • My samsung f250 started hacking up recently. what happens is that there are instances when I received calls and the person name dont show up on the screen - although it used to - only the number. the part of the screen that should show the name is blurred. Then the same person may call at another time and the name and number shows up - meaning it works perfectly. It happened with quite a few names in my phonebook. all of these contacts used to work ok - and as I stated it dont happen all the time. Is there a fix for this - please help. Also sometime when I'm scrolling my contact list, the phone start to scroll through rapidly on its own without me pressing a key - u know like a key is jam (even though the key doesn't seem depressed). It only stop by me pushing the button to scroll the opposite direction. what should I do to resolve these problems ? Otherwise the phone is cool

  • You got to get one of those funny littl screw drivers and take the thing apart (Carefully!) and dry everything inside - then leave it in the light for a while, then put it together. The sooner the better tho, since parts inside will start to corrode and mess up the electronics. Or get daddy to do it.

  • I want to know that external speakes r available free with handset or we have to buy it

  • i been using several samsung phones, the latest is X700, it's true that most samsung phone don't change its themes like SE or Nokia does, and to personalise the sound you gotta keep those sound in the phone's memory, any file that you save in the ext. memory won't do for phone's profile (wallpaper, ringtones, alarm). as far as I know, samsung's cameras are good from VGA to higher resolution, but I don't know bout F250's, I like the design though, almost looks like Nokia N81, nice!

  • the phone looks commpelling,an exellent work of technology,i like it

  • dont buy this phone its complete crap,there is no way to personalise it,and by that i mean the theme cant be change, no skins or anything that wud make your phone look different from anyone elses. The camera sucks,the audio isnt all that gud, the music player is faulty (freezes, restarts, wont open on occasion and so on). it also is a very slow phone, especially when the music player is being used, everything becomes noticeably slower,it just plain out is an insult to the phone industry,seriously to buy this garbage

  • Howzt evry1.. Ok,I hav 2 questions: -How long does the battery REALLY last, when I'm on mxit an hour a day and listening to radio another half hour a day? - and, does the battery life decrease as the phone gets older? -How good is the radio reception in a big city on the road?

  • ok guys i finally have my phone, and i would like to post some pros and cons about it: Pros: great design, great sound (i dont think we need to increase its capacity), great mp3 player, great speakers, great price Cons: really hard to type SMS, i had a samsung p777 before and was really used to sense the buttoms and type very fast, poor camera quality, poor colors, ugly purple theme, battery hard to open...well its always hard to get use to new things, but so far im considering to sell my phone to a friend (she said its "cute"...mmm not too good for guys)...

  • Is a beautifull phone!!

  • hmmm i like d fone....i hook it up to speakers like an ipod and it plays cool...d only this d graphics it sucks real bad

  • OMG! Thanks IDK and Mike! Thank you so much! so now,i can change the msg tone and damn! still cant manage to change the theme!

  • I think it is a gr8 phone and the design is ideal 4 woman i would say... But i h8 the graphics, I actualy expected the phone to hve gr8 graphics because I judged the phone by its design... I just think it would be a perfect phone if the graphics and camera was much better!!!

  • I changed my ringtone for messaging ...Go to settings>Phone Settings>Phone Profiles>Click Edit on Whatever Profile you want>New Messages>Change message alet to Melody and Vibrate OR just MElody> THen Go down and change ringtine

  • To boost up your volume for e.g. if it's a mp3 song, download 'mp3gain'. You can look for in on www.google.com. It's a software that enables you to boost up the volume of mp3. You just have to upload it to your phone. Just be careful boosting too much of the mp3 will dramatically reduce sound quality though.

  • finally received this phone this past wednesday. i don't understand why everyone is making a fuss about the 'speaker'. you have to understand that this is a music PHONE, the speaker capability compared to other music electronics is of course limited. for the price, for the features, the music aspect of the f250 is on point and surpassed all of my expectations. great looks, great reception, clear calling, it's a solid 8/10 for me. i'm telling you guys, i've check howard forums about such 'speaker codes' and there is no such thing. people here are just trying to get your emails so they can spam you. do your research first!

  • can anyone tell me how i can get the samaung sgh-f250 to play louder please email [email protected] thanks very much

  • There is NO 3G on this phone. Check the specs on this site!!!!

  • every time i want to go in to the music player it never topsloding when i take the memory card out i can go in. is my memory card to big?

  • I have AT&T and I want this phone, does anyone know if it will be compatible with the 3G network?

  • Hi, i was searching through the comments as i decide wether to buy this phone or the sony ericsson w910 and since you have this phone i was wondering if you could help me out by letting my know about whe whole deal with the speaker sound everyone seems to be complaining about and if you still have the codes for it would you be kind enough to send those back, or some help on how to find them! Also, can you choose an SMS ringtone.. besides the 4 options it's already got.. thanks so much!

  • Could you please send me the codes for the speakers? Thanks for your time and effort. My e-mail is [email protected]

  • Can anybody tell me if you can change the purple theme?? I want to buy this phone but I DON'T LIKE THAT THEME. :( It would be nice to change it to black (like Samsung's E900 and others). Please, give only usefull info. Thank you.

  • how do you change the background color of the menu window ?

  • Please give me the codes to make the speakers sound loud. My email is [email protected]. Thank you.

  • If you want your messages to go to the sentbox you must send and save them... dont just send them..... People read the booklet your phone came with.... Most of the answer are there....

  • Hey samsung fans, Right so for once I just went out and bought this phone. I normally don't go for samsung but in the past they have been really good. If you are considering this phone well you should go have a look at it. You shouldn't base your choice on they peoples opinions however this is a great phone. Only con would probably be the SMS/text ringtone- once again only 4 choices. However, if that doesn't bother you then I would put this phone at about a 9/10.

  • I JUST HATE SAMSUNG'S SOFT Its impossible config. ring tones, and the middle - center button always connect to the wap server.. sory 4 my enlgis, im from argentina..

  • can other themes be put or used in this phone?? other than the default phones?????? plz only phone users answer

  • I just want to clear up what several of you mean by 'weak speaker'- are you referring to the sound when there is an incoming call, or are you talking about the music player's speaker? also, to zarif, i really don't think you should make baseless comments about a 'volume code' when there isn't one available. many asked for your help, but you just avoid their requests. such a pointless thing to do, in my opinion.

  • is it true that the f25 comes wit 2 portable speakers in its packaging and does this phone have an equalizer. Pls reply. I wanna buy this phone. My e-mail is [email protected]

  • The volume of speaker in the phone can be increasing by only one codes..It will turn soft volume to the high louder quality of volume.The speaker sound same better with Nokia Xpress Music 5610 and Samsung i450.The codes can be increased to the number 5000..If u turn higher than 5000,the sound will be pain in your ear.If u want share with me the codes,please contact me by handphone...cuz i had to go continue my study...

  • I've now had this phone 15 hours and find it extremely irritating and limited. It's well designed and built, but is definitely ained at the teenage clubber scene with the awful noise it makes moving through menus. It's going back in it's box and back to the vendor tomorrow

  • im really thinking of buying this phone. Its between this or the nokia 5300. the only reason i dont want the nokia 5300 is because it doesnt look as good as the F250 and fair few people have nokia 5300. IS IT TRUE that u cant set a seperate ringtone for messages? Is it true that the speaker isnt loud? Do you think i should buy this phone????????????

  • i bought the phone yesterday. there's a purple theme that you can't change but it grows on you [= & yes, you can plug it into the computer (Y) the cable comes with it.

  • is there a phone strap loop on the phone?

  • No...!! The only one better product was Samsung....The design was very elegant and luxury.......Sony just make their phones for music only not all aspect like Nokia and Samsung.. 1.Nokia better in all features. 2.Samsung is the most beautiful and excellent designed their phones. 3.Sony just have a little bit nice in music and have lot ugly design..I never use Sony again.The display was very disturbing.. 4.LG also better in design and same with Samsung.Good Try a new Samsung Live Loud Edition.F250,F330 and i450...sure it will beat any sony ericson walkman phones....Im sure...Thanks

  • Hey guy, I had using these phone and I found the code to increase the speaker volume..truly !!!

  • please help me on the main display it has a small icon of GPRS i tried to stop it but it hasn't got an option,pleaase help!

  • Does a 2G Tri band phone equate to a Quad band device. I'm not certain but on the phone review, its posted as tri band device and when I bought mine the 850 bandwith was included making it a quad and not tri.

  • i had purchased this phone for my brother. notsetisfied with loud speaker soundvery low but style and looks are definatly plus for this mobile

  • My F250 has a purple theme which I guess is standard. You can see it in the menus. Is there a way to change this theme? You can see it here:

  • Please if any1 knows how to make sent messages go to the sent box post it here!!!! iv tryd everything :(

  • this phone is great... you guys are correct, the speaker is really not that loud. because this phone is really not like the i450 that uses bang&Olufsen speaker. but if you use the headset. try to compare it with other phone. its really loud. as you can notice there is a 3.5mm jack for the speaker. so meaning, the phone should be use with a headset. i can help you guys when it comes to the specs but im only available thru 9-6pm central time US.

  • i think it will be better with the yamaha with onboard tweeters

  • Hi I got this phone a week ago, the slide doesnt seem very steady, its already shakey from side to side a bit. as with all Samsung phones speaker quality is weak from the phone, thats a big disappointment for me. Only time the music is loud is when you're listening on head phones. i have missed many incoming calls because of the speakers camera quality as expected from 1.3megapixels, very bad! It LOOKS great though. if the sepaker quality and camera was better, the phone would be perfect!

  • guys plz post here the tips to increase the speaker volum in music plzyer

  • i got dis fone yesterday only.............everything is fine in dis fone except it's speaker volume nd it's price speaker volume is too much...........

  • To Mehdi Sarwrai: You would probably need to go to your message setting, and turn the "Save Sent messages" on.

  • Hi, I was going to buy this phone but just wondering how loud is the ringer. I had used samsung phones in the past but I didn't like the quietness of the ringer at all. It wasn't loud enough, like, if I put it in my purse and have an incoming call, I would barely hear anything. So, how about this phone? Is the ringer loud enough? Thank you!

  • Frm wat i have heard the f250 seems like a pretty good phone. I have vast experience in using samsung phone. I am going 2 buy this one next month. I just want 2 know if the phone's speaker is loud wen playing back music and does its battery last long unlike previous models. Pls reply quickly as i want 2 buy this phone

  • the design of this phone is nice and good, but the color only 65k.... camera only 1.3mega pixels.... no customing ringtone 4 SMS....

  • Yah, I can't get my text to go to the outbox or sentbox either. Also, the customized ringtone for my text msg keeps ringing everytime... like when i get a text it'll play the ringtone like 4 times unless its a default ringtone from the phone itself, then it rings only once. Does anyone know how to make the customized ringtone ring just once?

  • hey guys this f250 is a good phone.ihave never had a problem with it.it does the trick for me and is way better than the e250.you guys need more info just ask me

  • im interested, but need to know all features and any other recommendations other than this...?

  • well i was looking for reviews about the phone and all I found was a war between which company makes better phones(??)...every company has their own style...if you dont like one go to another and don't worry about competion you're not getting anything out of it

  • can i use this in vietnam ?

  • cool phnee ii want iitt but maybe the only problem its the price :S

  • buy F250 instead of E250, their specifications are very much different..

  • Is it true that you can�t customize something so simple like SMS ringtones?? I thought that didn�t happen anymore.... It seems like the perfect phone would have Samsung�s design but Nokia�s durability or performance.... I wanted to buy this phone in exchange of my Nokia 6131, but now I don�t know what to do... O_o

  • I want to buy a samsung phone either F250 or E250, pls suggest the better one. What I observed is that F250 has 1.3MP camera & dedicated music keys as additional features. E250 comes with 1GB card free and for almost Rs.1500/- less. So specify other differences like design, build quality & others.

  • Can somebody tell me which phone to choose from F250 and E250? What I observed is F250 has 1.3MP camera and dedicated music keys, apart from that I didn't find any diff. E250 comes with 1GB Card free for amost Rs.1500/- less. If you know more diff's, pls let me know.

  • great phn with grat look i love f250

  • this is a very stylish phone, too bad the phone hasn't reach my country's shore yet :( would love to own one but one question in my mind. is the phone really a dual-slider like the ones made in N95 and N96?

  • I already have it, sound its good compare to my old v3x, but the camera is not that good though and for features... well... I would still love motorola for it, but for battery, this one is really good though.

  • whats the real resolution,i tought it was 176x220

  • the talk time is 3hr and 30min. Id like to know if this phone is a good one because i am planing on buying it and id like someone who has it to explain its features and its qualities

  • is this phone also has Bang&Olufsen sound chip?

  • whats the talk time?

  • People keep leaving comments about phones saying its very nice but not great camera. Phones are all different and are targeted at different people in different sectors of the market. If your not interested in the phone than it isnt intended for you so than dont criticise it. Move on!

  • it has very good quality sound and high quality headphone comes with packege,but it's very expensive in 1.3 mp camara range, sasung shuld decrease it's price

  • No flash and only QCIF video ! A few years ago nearly all Samsung phones had flash and CIF video. Samsung should made better phones, not worse. Design isn't everything...

  • Samsung design is great and built quality is so much better than Nokia. But features are terrible, no customized SMS ringtones, no full screen browsing from memory card, etc etc...If Nokia and Samsung worked together they would make the perfect phone.

  • to jim: all companies have their own flaws when making certain phones rather... all phones have a specific flaw... but to say the least that samsung's repeated flaw is a slow processor and interface and a bulky design is ridiculous...i ono if u've notice but if u've looked at samsung's ultra slim series of phones and also their general selection of designing phones they're not all or as "bulky and slow" as u unknowingly put it.. as for the sony ericson comment i ono if u notice but they're a relatively new company and has yet to establish themselves as a genuine mobile manufacturer compared to the top 3 companies (1. nokia 2.samsung 3. moto)...and on top of that most of their phones are made in china and a good example of "how great their quality" as u would believe is the s500i... cracked keys and a buggy firmware is somethin i dont think se could win over samsung or nokia or even motorola for that matter.

  • sexy sexy phone, but awful awful specs >___< I wish nokia and samsung could get married.

  • beautiful design!!

  • Oh hey look, its the N81!!!

  • This phone look good but the features it offer is really bad. @Ultra edition i think that samsung cannot beat SonyE. And samsung cant even dream of beating Nokia even if they produce bulky or slow phones [Thats a FACT]

  • This phone has nothing to do with N81 or any Nokia Symbian phone. Another category, not a smartphone. This is a mid seg music phone, fashionable color options.

  • Samsung phones are under-rated. In my honest opinion they ARE more stylish and fashionable than anything Nokia currently has on offer. Nokia phones all seem to suffer from the same problem - extremely slow software. Really retarded response when trying to open any application. Dare I say Samsung is lightning faster, more reliable and stable. Nokias' position as market leader will not last long. People are realizing that there ARE other alternatives(Sony Ericsson, Samsung,Motorola) to the 'boring bland brand'. Just my 2c...

  • To "all da people who want be agaist Samsung Mobile" Do you guys actually know about Samsung Company.? Everyone knows Nokia is Mobile phone company. however samsung is different with that.! Samsung making lots of others as well. and over 50% of their products they have No.1 Technology in the world. such as Micro chip (D-RAM) and LCD also they do supply Mobile phone CPU to HTC and etc. company. Do you guys know ? that over 30% of Apple Iphone's inside parts are from Samsung.! Moreover, why would samsung copy FAT.-! Bulky Design from Nokia.? Samsung's Design Concept being Slim Factor and it is differnt with Nokia Design Concept.! and for the future 4G(WiBro) technology was Developed from Samsung and all the mobile phone in the future need to use samsung 4G(WiBro) chip. from all of these Samsung being totally Different company as Nokia who just making out side of phone.(inside of phone parts are fully supplied by third party)!

  • i personally dont think samsung has to worry about anything... when it comes to mobile phones samsung has innovation and logics to design an exceptional phone...u may think nokia tops samsung in software and friendly ui support but if u take a trip to korea im sure the phones that u see in your country actually do not compare to what samsung has built in their homeland.

  • its a good looking cellphone..i like it,but the problem is that its battery is lame..its soo weak and it doesnt last 4 too long..otherwise its a very cool phone...i love it and im so happy that i hav it

  • Samsung nowdays are very worried about the success about the Nokia mobiles over there success as they are copying every Nokia mobile nowdays as they can"t match Nokia with the software an functions on there mobiles this looks like the N81 so Samsung thought they could compete with Nokia but they have know chance of all beating Nokia

  • It all depend on price ,if it is of $130 so it is Good. And it is very much similar to E250. And is it 64 or 40 channel? If it is 64 so it is not a bad cell phone.

  • And whats so great about this phone? =S

  • yes..it looks like a copy.but i dont think that samsung wants to copy it from nokia.because samsung has good designs for mobile phones.anyway if nokia wants to keep their position further more, they will have to copy all the samsung slim designs.

  • i think it is next generation of E250,chip and good face but no high specs.

  • samsung offers phones with style than the options so if we are buying samsung then we are paying for none other than the style ... style coasts money ... if i need good options in my phone i will probably go for nokia ... but i must say nokia is also releasing so many stylish phones lately but they dont coast much cuz of the style but becuz of the options ... i think nokia is better in everything ... thats why nokia is the no. 1 best selling phone model around the world ... nokia rules ... and everyone this is not a copy of a nokia n 81 i dont think its design is copied from any other phone model if so why is its screen is too small ? ... samsung should have done a better job with this mobile im not saying its bad its pretty looking ... by the way as i know samsung mobiles got the worst battery life of all the cell phone models i wonder when they will consider on releasing a better battery life phone ...

  • Its the same Carbon copy of N81 ! wow wat a copy !

  • i think this ones better if produced with 5 megapixel camera,and 3G provided.

  • Looks good but 160x120 65k screen. Why???

  • shivam n81 was out on internet leaked with pictures and possible specs way back as 7-8 months . please google it a little and u will find it , so whatever you are saying is purely baseless there is no need for samsung to be so unimaginative and stupid in producing this particular phone

  • To everyone who says its a copy of N81, take in consideration that it takes many months to develop a cellphone (its looks, hardware, software, etc.). The N81 has been hardly out for 1 or 2 months and Samsung couldn't possibly 'rip off the design' in that time. I'm sure they didn't go like "Gosh, We've got the software and spec sheet ready, lets wait for Nokia to release a cellphone so we can 'rip it off' ". Use your heads.

  • samsung offers phones with style than the options so if we are buying samsung then we are paying for none other than the style ... style coasts money ... if i need good options in my phone i will probably go for nokia ... but i must say nokia is also releasing so many stylish phones lately but they dont coast much cuz of the style but becuz of the options ... i think nokia is better in everything ... thats why nokia is the no. 1 best selling phone model around the world ... nokia rules ...

  • i would buy this phone to my mom. it looks great, no matter bad camera... i like it :) not bad. and it should be cheap :) i expect it to be around 150$

  • very N81-look-a-like

  • Sorry , but samsung slow technology . Please take idea from nokia or sony ericsson ....

  • I really like the design, very nice

  • the design is soo good for a mid-low end phone...it's better if it's made a mid or high end one...too bad...

  • Not a worthwhile phone to buy, to much like a E250

  • wow, samsung. you're slowly slitting your own throat. when are you ever gonna be anywhere NEAR innovative?

  • This is a low end phone from samsung its designed to be cheap so there is not 5 mp camera qvga screen stuff like that this is 1/5 of the price of nokia's top stuff

  • voting for this phone depend on price .features is low.

  • slick design . . . x

  • wow thats a horrible screen, 128x160 in 2 inches, usually its 240x320

  • copy of N81????!?!?!

  • looks good

  • Im first.
