  • My Dear Friends Please Learn (Training), How to operate ANDROID Mobile. then give your opinion about any android phone.

  • If you want constraint of buying CDMA Android then this is the best phone available in market. Ya its slow but where are more options in CDMA Android. So there are some good handful ways of using the phone are keep checking the task manager and end the not needed apps, switch on GPS, WIFI only if necessary. Doing the things i told above it works cool for me.

  • Very poor phone its working very slowly and mostly ganging proublem battery not workin a day ram is very very low i will sugest totaly borred phone and money is west

  • really nice cell all apps are working only one problem is hanging a bitter but all apps are working and in this phone the front camera is not in this phone thats the minus point and i give 4/5 points to this phone

  • Initial e experiences were stunning. Be it speed, apps, everything. Butt once you start using this, flaws came the way. processor speed smashed down once you download the apps. It slowsdown with basic facebook and watsapp. ram is just 148 mb, which cant support cellular application with 5 external apps. Total wastage of money. only touch is something in this phone. this processor speed cant support CDMA & GSM. PLZ DONT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS PEICE OF SHIT.

  • samsung galaxy is one of the best android smartphone in India. I prefer to buy this one. I suggest all of u to buy it now.

  • Put indicom card internet will become fast

  • This phone is good if you want a GSM + CDMA dual sim phone other than that the net cannot be used via GSM, you cannot connect phone with PC for software update, you cannot use the mobile application installation manually to memory card, by default it will be installed in phone memory which will slower the processing of the phone as momory os less

  • Good phone. But it has following problems: 1) Touch screen does not work properly. You have to press hard & drag. 2) Internal memory is very very low. You can install only a few small sized apps. Without apps, what is the use of having android phone? 3) Lot of memory issues. Phone hangs at least twice daily. You have to disconnect the battery & reconnect.

  • supports video calling?

  • nic phone....

  • I am using this phone since 4-5 months now. Yes bad touch. I'vechanged touch pannel at samsung service. Now no problem at all. Memory is low but memory card is big. Doent matter to me memory issue. Cdma net is faster than gsm. Use tata indicom. They've good speed and schemes also. Battery is low side i must say. But all in all. I m satisfied. Surely never recomend it to any1. Go for htc vc.

  • hey super pilli

  • This is very beautiful , handsome, i love this . i am going to buy this right now, i dont bother about the price . this is price less.. my Beauty SAMSUNG DUOES ACE

  • yeap ...i m also facing the sam problem....:(

  • Does this handset have Mobile tracking feature.

  • hehe

  • anybody facing touchscreen problem... my phone is 2months old. nd touch is not ay all sensitive. have to touch 3-4 times to cut d call .

  • I bought the phone because I wanted to upgrade to an android and because it has dual sim capability. It works well and is sufficient for what I need in a phone. However, I find the battery life to be short and I hate the way the messages display the time it was received versus the time it was sent by the sender. But generally, I am satisfied with this phone for what it is worth.

  • flash is not importaant..this ph

  • i need flash, this is the most important draw back

  • O! Please do not buy this phone because its internal memory is baaaaaaaaaaaad.

  • My brother just now bought this phone....I was in office...n he has come with this phone..:( And when I saw this site...n nowI feel like throwing his phone....because of the comments...no one is praising...only negatives are...there...BTW its android phone I think he is in 9th so its enough for him.

  • get htc desire vc good & batter than samsung

  • f u wanna buy than dont ask any body else.just buy n enjoy

  • very bad exp it is hanging every 15-20 min even if is in standby. bad battery back-up for talktime (2-3 hrs). cannot download heavy apps

  • i plan take this mobile in next week. so all frnds pls give to different types of the own feed back for me

  • Not so good experience. I'm using it just like I used to use Nokia 1100 around 8-9 years back. Just using for outgoing & incoming calls. At times I also play game on it but after playing 2-3 games, 4th game starts hanging. You can't use GSM sim for using GPRS service. Only CDMA will work. I tried downloading & registering iMobile (ICICI banking) using my GSM number which is registered with ICICI. Unfortunately its been a month, not able to o so. To do it I need to first get my registered number changed from GSM to CDMA in ICICI records and then install & configure iMobile application on my phone. Every now and then it starts poping message for no more internal memory left... and so on... Not recommended for high end use. This phone is like a beautiful and sexy girl with whom anyone would want to make Wow! But she is suffering from AIDS. Mean to say if you still want to go for this girl, you would have some constraints. :) Lolzz Enjoy!

  • U r right. This model is problemetic. I m having Indicom SIM & always caller is getting reply as Phone is busy. Also my bills has increaed from 400 to 1000...gr8 keep it up Samsung...

  • According to market news the smartphone market rivals are fighting much for price. while doing that they are compromising in quality. So dont purchase any high end mobiles right now till end of 2nd quarter of 2014. Use cheaper mobiles like micromax and Nokia because samsung galaxy ace duos has brought no enhancements which were required. ace duos 589 and 6820 are of no use both are lacking in quality. I have researched a lot on smartphones and at the end apple was the best choice

  • unfortunatly .i have bought galaxy ace. GSM is not working , i tried everything i'm regreting to buy this phone.

  • dear frnds dont say like this to any mobile if 1 or 2 members are facing problems. it is not pssble to face same prblm to all. plz once use then only get the experiance.... thanx to all....

  • i thought to buy this but after reading all opinions, i decided to buy Sony ericsson live with walkman WT19i. Thanks a lot guyssssss.... My freinds suffering a lot with this galaxy ace mobiles........ Battery back up 00000000000........

  • If you have docomo sim then need OMH sim of it. you can use internet on CDMA card only

  • Bad experience with the phone. from the first day, (apart from the shock I got to find out no internet with Gsm card) it switches off automatically or restarts etc. and does this often or sometimes screen goes blankk and takes a while to come back. Bluetooth also can't pair and connect with other devices. Problem with the keys and other functions of the phone, BUT nothing compares to what happened recently: One morning I woke up and there is NO display. the phone was behaving awkwardly but still working , but no display (and that too the phone hasn't taken a fall or stuff etc.) I took it to samsung service center they said lcd has gone bust. it will take 3 days to repair. Now they call and said your whole phone motherboard is gone, and would take few more days All these issues and the phone is just 1 month old. I have owned several phones incl. smartphones and none of the phones gave me such trouble. If this phone has so many problems why samsung launched it in first place , just fleecing customers.

  • As per my Knowledge Samsung is one of the good & No 1 Mobile company but once i purchase Samsung Ace Duos SCH1589 i was unable to use internet in gsm slot, i was shocked & none of the executive had informed me while purchasing the worst handset. I request all my friends not to buy any samsung handset becoz they don't provide full information and making customers fool & suffer on same. Lets take all take this issue to consumer forum becoz samsung is cheating customers .

  • It's very much possible to use internet with gsm. Contact your service provider to activate settings.

  • Thanks for this feedback , I see most of them have expressed dissatisfaction I was about to buy, but poet this review will surely not touch this mobile.

  • Worst. High radiyation

  • I bought this handset and I cannot use internet with GSM SIM though I have been trying to connect and asked Samsung Showroom people to make settings.

  • from my side its a good phone as it has many features

  • This phone is full of negative points. I had purchase it 2 month back and I got very poor response from this phone.... 1) First of all in this phone GSM will not support of internet/GPRS. You must have to use CDMA sim which is most costly for GPRS purpose... and not even support the 3G network.. :(... 2) Battery life is too Pathetic. 3) Quality for cam is poor 4) Phone get restart most of the time when u r talking to some one or browsing its application 5) It hang a lot while browsing the internet or playing the game. I am not happy with this phone. If you planning to purchase this phone please go with its proper specification and limitation for this handset. Thanks

  • to white colouer

  • cdam of tata indicom will work in this cell phone

  • I am also disapointd that I've bought this phone, my only purpose was to run data on GSM and this phone is indeed full of shits and the shocking is neither the dealer nor samsung bothers to give this info to the buyers upfront while purchasing. For the first time ever I bought a samsung and I am sure this is my last time as well. Samsung has cheated it's customers. I would never ever go for samsung nor would I advise anybody do so.

  • GPRS works only on CDMA, which is not specified anywhere...so only if you have a Reliance CDMA SIM(other CDMA SIMs dont support GPRS), and are ok with GPRS on CDMA( more expensive), then u should go ahead with it..otherwise phone is ok

  • why all negatives regarding Samsung Galaxy Ace duos 1589

  • it isn't true...

  • we plan to buy this samsung i589, but when we read this on website,we get surprice bcoz most of the people gave a very bad comments about this model phone,so we deside to buy nokia,,thanks to our citizens

  • Its not a worthy mobile for 190EUR .. dont waste money

  • I have bought the 1589 with lots of expectations...but now i am feeling bad about why i have purchased this mobile. Because, in a day automatically switch off and on many times, it hangs many times, some time not visible who is calling, GSM internet facility is not available...while sold these information not revealed... This model is quite shocking from Samsung...why did this...Samsung needs to do something for the customers.

  • Yes, I do experiencing the problem of AUTO restart I have been to service center for cople of times but still they are not able to rectify the problem. Speed are very less. I do not recommend this model of samsung :(

  • I was inspired by the look and i'm n thought of buyin tis.. after seein ur comments my thought??????

  • Hi, I also purchased it on 28th April and from the very first day, it started giving trouble. Voice quality is very bad, it's absolutely inaudible particularly in a moving vehicle/train.Touch screen does not respond properly, screen gets on-off volunterily. Battery is too bad. It's a complete waste and such quality is absolutely unbelieveable from a company of repute like SAMSUNG.I even got the motherboard & battery replaced from the service centre, but without any improvement. I feel cheated. If Samsung doesn't do anything, I'm now contemplating to knock the consumer court.

  • so waht to do ?

  • how can i run internet please guide

  • Hi.. friends... I purchased samsung galaxy Ace Duos i589... from starting day i got problem with this mobile wich are AUTO ON & OFF , TOUCH Problem , It doesnt scan Wirless devices, no battery back up, net browsing also tooooooo slow.... i think its no value for money.... dont go for this mobile(samsung ace duos i589).... other galaxy model are awsome.... what do you say?

  • I bought this mobile 1 month back, it is definitly not better than Galaxy pop I559. Also it hangs unexpectedly and is also slow while operating.

  • .....because all those PEOPLE have never ever really used Symbian Belle. Admit ANDROID is a bit simpler in USABILITY but it SUCKs BIG TIME. ANDROID just seems SO Under-Developed while its Camera App & the Music App SUCK Big Time.

  • buying Samsung sch i589 is fully wastage of money

  • My ph loss CPU...how can i solve my ph..I bought this on Feb:. It lost on April:...No Power, No Display, nothing on ph..

  • Don't know how some people say that android is better than nokia belle os.

  • I think that samsung is a good mobile.but by ace duos had design a cdma and gsm.we should have an 3g in gsm also.by buying dis mble i wasted my money

  • huw can browse internet in dis handset using cdma? any1 cud help me out i use reliance cdma....

  • Cannot use internet via GSM card...

  • How can I operate internet connection through GSM.

  • go for micromax a52. i m using. very nice one...just rs.6029 fm mobile store with 2 years warranty......thnks

  • Very bad phone. Do not support GSM internet. Samsung should provide updated version of Android for i589 so that people can use GSM internet on it. CDMA internet is slow and costly.

  • Samsung kies 2 is available for windows and Mac OS...

  • Dear Friends, This phone is really goodin view of getting high speed net which is EvDO service by tata or reliance but only in big cities where it is available and its too costly, tata is charging 2GB@500Rs. And reliance 200 for 500mb.. net speeds are equivalent to 4G but battery problem is the biggest drawback.. u need to recharge it constantly if u r using net throughout. rest gsm network is also good but no net connection on gsm network. camera quality 3mp..bad.. no flashlight.. 822mhz is enough but ram is just 256 personally u need to use net only as and when needed then battery goes good.. but my personal feeling is this is not great to use unless and untill EvDo service gets cheaper like 3g

  • please dear exchange my mobile... i m very 2 buy dis

  • samsung has lost his goodwill by making i589 sorry this feature we can get in half amount

  • internet not woring n gsm network

  • I am agree with you. GSM has no internet facility. this phone hanged during conversation. USELESS MOBILE. I have wasted my money by purchasing this mobile. Company must think over it.

  • I have the same AUTO OFF and ON problem. Other than that I don't have any issues. Battery drains very fast. Samsung should replace with a high capacity battery for the customers at free of cost. Battery doesn't lasts for even a single day.

  • Hai,I am using this phone for the last 2 months.My mobile is getting AUTO OFF & ON.The mobile is hanging problem and not able to use Internet on GSM.Head set jack problem, SIM Tray faulty .It is not worthy to buy this phone at this price.

  • Hai,I am using this phone for the last 2 months.My mobile is getting AUTO OFF & ON.The mobile is hanging problem and extremely slow response to make a call and not able to use Internet on GSM.It is not worthy to buy this phone at this price.

  • then suggess me a good mobile

  • Useless phone simply waste of money... No internet for GSM BAND hanging problem touch pad problem. If we try to clear memory from task manager both the network goes off and it display a msg (ANROID.COM HAS STOPPED UNEXPEDTLY) Samsung should look into it and produce a good GSM AND CDMA PHONE...

  • I am using this phone for the last 2 months problems are frequent hanging extremely slow response it takes minimum of 1 minute to place a call and not able to use Internet on GSM card is very bad Though GPS chipset is installed it wont work no point in buying this phone at this price

  • no front camera .no internet access. it is waste of money, time, expectation it is simply a electronic garbage with beauty and charming look to cheat costumers by samsung NEVER TRUST ON THIS BRAND

  • Advantages Only reasonable CDMA handset available You can use Tata Docomo for CDMA which has ultra cheap Data plans Good design Disadvantages: 1, poor battery life. you must not use internet when away from charger ( or take charger with you). It drains extremely fast.Better use only as a pure CDMA phone. Putting both sims drians battery even fast 2, No internet in GSM mode 3, Sluggish graphic performance. 4, very low internal memory. Basic apps will itself take all memory Performance and battery wise , even Galaxy Y is better but then we do not have that in CDMA

  • No it is not possible physically. Yes it is theoretically possible by rooting device and moving all apps to SD card, but no one seems to know how to root this device.

  • That does not work, I have tried

  • please tell me any possible to increase internal memory i activated reliance 1gb free data activate on my handset

  • Galaxy Ace Duos SCH-i589 can be rooted with unlock root software.

  • Samsung make me laugh on this phone.. the 1st Android 2.2 Froyo in 2012..:)

  • There is no net connection in gsm but we are cheated by samsung again.

  • samsung mobile is best in our world but but duos i589 modell cell wost & waste

  • Waste of Money... Waste of Time... People plz dont think at least for a second to buy this phone. Useless..... 1. Cant use internet 2. No Flash Light 3. Only 3.5 mp camera (quality is also very poor. I feel my another phone nokia phone 5230's camera is much better than this) 4. I bought this phone with lots of expectations and now i feel like this is the the worst decision in my whole life i made. If samsung can do anything on these probs, it would be better..... :-(

  • samsung really cheated us as there is no internet on gsm. Hey samsung i wont be purchasing ur product anymore and suggest all of u not to purchase this phone.

  • Internal Memory Too low, Cannot install games requiring more memory

  • this phone is very bad to use i used it from last 2 months i thing samsung doesn.t make this type of mobiles otherwise the company will be closed due to loosing its images by cheating customers

  • samsung galaxy ace duos 1589 - totally bogus mobile. not to buy this mobile at the rate of rs.5000/- even. even i have a complaint of hang during a 50 times in a day. i complaint at samsung ceo but no responce from him. not to put trust on this brand ultimately korean brand. battery back up for 3 to 4 hours,display-time change automatically, not to pick incoming call, without our knowledge tel. goes to any no. please not to buy this harassment.

  • Can you plz elaborate the pros and cons of this phone i mean to say advantages and disadvantages ...? also any other phone with same functionalities or added with same price range.

  • in this no flash that are a big deficiency that make poor image with all available features

  • i m also use this mobile im not satisfied because internet are not connected. not for GSM & CDMA sim pls

  • in camera there are no flash and 3.5 mg not enoghp

  • Thank buddy, i decided not to buy this mobile. its not worth of it

  • I am agree with you.

  • plz dont buy it no front camera not a 3g mobile internet can be used on cdma only android version 2.3 not upgradable

  • gud im suffering now

  • major drawback is internet on cdma connection.not on gsm.

  • how can we use net.. plz expalin it

  • can anybody tell me how can i start internet on gsm sim..???

  • samsung should have allowed both sims to be gsm, placed front camera and an LED flash.

  • Samsung Galaxy Ace Duos i589 provides internet connection only with CDMA not with GSM. Great cheating by Reliance Communications by not providing 1GB/month free as per their advertisement of their website. Battery discharging is very fast. be ready to charge it again and again. Conclusion is that it is very bad mobile phone and one should not purchase it.

  • I am using SCH-I589...read all the posts before mine on this blog.Things I am facing are 1. No kies/ PC suite received with mobile not even available anywhere including the Samsung website. 2. CDMA is the prime provider for internet..but found much expensive .. 3. Battery - too poor. 4. Not friendly for bulk SMSing...threded SMS is a bullshit.. ridiculous to find an imortant msg arranged by date or like that.. 5. call log not user friendly... 6. No fonts choice... u've to download it. 7. No standby option for calls & msgs when u r playing games on cell. ANYBODY IF CAN HELP FOR ANY ABOVE PROBLEMS ....PLEASE HELP ON THIS PAGE. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

  • This phone is a shit!! Inevitably going to make a big hole in ur pocket..... None of the CDMA providers are having a good data plan to use Internet on.....if one requires just for calling ( GSM + CDMA ) it proves to be a good phone....it's almost a month I have been gifted this phone...I haven't use the Internet the way I used to on other phones...... If you want to look android market on this phone a big NO goes from me to this phone (exceptn you do have a gud wifi connection)

  • No front camera, No LED Flesh Only 3.5 MP No 3G Internet only on CDMA will Make big hole in your pocket. poor Battery back up. Older android How much is internal memory???? Decided not to buy this phone.

  • Samsung should have provided the phone in which we can access internet through 3g or 2g in GSM and only calling for cdma

  • the phone is fabulous .....plz reduse its price

  • This phone is worst for those who want to buy a phone in range near by 14000... i suggest samsung galaxy ace plus and samsung galaxy ace. wait for price to reduce of both this phone nearly end of june....

  • That's right. In my country (Indonesia), CDMA operators are the only ones providing true unlimited data plan without FUP at the same or better speed and a lower price than their GSM counterparts.

  • not a bad phone

  • price is high...plz reduce it

  • very bad picturzooom level very very bad

  • Is there any option in that mobile of all CDMA networks can use Ex:- Reliance, MTS, Tataindicom, etc,. if there is option u can and I can buy, so, friend think and purchase the mobile set. Thanks,

  • Please note that CDMA Data is not always expensive. Do you know the cheapest unlimited 3G is provided by BSNL on CDMA Service? (EVDO Rev A CDMA2000 service) You will get 3.1Mbps unlimited (no fair usage cheating!)3G service @750 p.m from BSNL.

  • Samsung ace duos i 589 is a great mobile the only bad thing about it is that u can only use reliance net on it no gsm net available.......................

  • Will Samsung Galaxy Ace Duos I589 cdma allow to use the BSNL EVDO sim card. anyone have any idea. thanks in advance.

  • Samsung is finally taking a step in the right direction with CDMA/GSM smartphones. The signal quality and strength of Reliance CDMA even deep inside apartments is just awesome. GSM can't hold a candle. People like me need to be available on the phone at all times, a combination of CDMA and GSM in smartphones is just perfect.

  • pl let me know that how can i send the group sms and can i make a group of more then 200 and can i send the sms to all the members of one group

  • samsung galaxy ace duos i589 is more or less same as galaxy pop (cdma) except it has cdma&gsm combination. it is unique that it is giving cdma-gsm combination. thanks for that. camera is bad in low light. like all other samsung phones battery backup is very poor. it is good as stand phone i.e. using it connecting with a charger. but for a day's out, it is miserable.

  • This is DUAL-SIM, DUAL-Standby Phone and is having two SIM slots to hold two SIM, good phone compared to Motorola XT800, But XT800 is better in screen resolution and Camera (5MP). Over all Ace-Duos wins the game here for Android 2.3, 1650mAH, 800MHz and less in price.

  • I bought this phone how can i connect with internet through gsm sim and make a video call?

  • You should go ahead and buy a type writer. A phone is way too technical for you :D

  • In fact, 'DUOS' does not mean it really works with dual SIM card. It supports GSM and CDMA - yes, but not 2 GSM. That's probably the reason why they don't want to release it in other countries. If it would support 2 GSM SIM cards simultaneously + 3G (and +Glonass desirable) I would be the first to buy it. Currently there's only GALAXY Y DUOS on the market - it's screen is too small and has low resolution.

  • In this phone interenet works only on CDMA card, for which heavy internet charges we have to pay. Also note there is no any information on broucher. Now a days internet charges are very less on GSM card. I suggest do not buy this phone those who wants to surf internet.

  • True,its camera too is 3mp,similar features in htc explorer,LG optimus net(dual sim)

  • its a waste of money dont buy this fone..the only advantage ace duos has that it has 16million colours resolution, apart from that no other big advantage..internal memory is not known even on samsung website about the fone..no flash..internet on cdma slot only..no info on upgradation to icecrm sandwch..lg net dual sim and micromax a78 are better fones even galaxy pro duos is a better option..

  • Spending almost 17k on phone with no flash ,3G GSM, is wastage of precious money, what had happened to samsung,; company must sell it on 8k or 9k to get through the stock. And must not manufacture the new stock.

  • this is most worse phone in dual sim, internet option in CDMA E-VDO only means no normal internet and evdo is costly affair in internet in india. Particularly if you are having tata indicom customer then get ready for a big hole in your pocket. Tata indicom thinks that they are providing a life saving drug instead of an internet connection. it is Rs.2/ per MB with lot of other charges. so internet on this phone on indicom evdo connection is an horrible experience.

  • this handset having Internal memory 125MB, OS - Android OS, v2.3 (Gingerbread).

  • my friends purchased 3sets recently and there are happy with specifictions any higher version is available in cdma.

  • i was die hard nokia fan, then switch over to iphone but after i bought samsung note i have switch over my loyalty towards samsung hence im giving up nokia (cdma) & a gsm fone to buy this dual sim i589 phone im sure this fone will be good.!! :)

  • Im planning to buy Samsung Galaxy Ace Duos I589 What is the Ram? What is the Gpu? What version of TouchWiZ ? Internal Memory ?

  • is this handset support internet (on GSM sim) please reply.

  • is this handset support internet (on GSM sim) pls reply.

  • internal memory 512mb..n ram also 512mb

  • That is ace+ ..not ace duos..

  • yes

  • 13599 rs with 5%vat..avlbl at all univercell mobile showrooms

  • good to see

  • is it standby

  • Looks like there is little clarity on specs. Some site say its 2.3, some say its 2.2. Some say it has Adreno 205, some say nothing..

  • Please any one tell me the internal memory and RAM on this phone

  • what about internel memory? handset having internel memory or not? is this handset support internet (on GSM sim)

  • battary back up is very low

  • Great Effort by Samsung to re-enter CDMA territory. The phone runs like a dream on EVDO network. But it would have been great if it supported EDGE / 3G on GSM also. 3 MP camera is a huge let down. Battery back-up is as u expect from an Android smartphone. You need to charge it upto twice a day. I got it for INR 14000 at Kolkata.

  • An option to use either CDMA/GSM or GSM/GSM should be there, so as to please all class.

  • Price (Rs.16990) looks high if it doesn't have 5MP cam, Secondary camera,no video calls, OS:2.3 Android.

  • is this handset support to gprs. as there is no Specifications on box....

  • this handset having Android OS, 2.3 (Gingerbread) not Android OS, v2.2 (Froyo).

  • where did you get your info abauth the phone ?

  • Thanks but that just woun't cut it! i919 is dual standby CDMA/GSM and 4 ChinoMobile only! + its not exactly bearing SG2 full flow features as its single core 1.4Ghz minus Super Amoled! Wat they really need to do is just take SG2 as it is and just dual SIM it on GSM/GSM! SIMPLE! Thanks though!

  • it has 5mp cam and not 3mp. it has 1500 mah battery and not 1600 as mentioned. it has and2.3 and not 2.2.

  • It is a 5 Mpixel Camer with front camera as well....

  • what- no sec cam?? no ICS update promise? no auto focus its a hocus pocus with a price tag-39$/16000rs dont buy. wait for mwc

  • Does'nt it got a 5mp carera & 2.3 gingerbread OS??

  • Really is it with 3 MP camera without flash & no auto-focus ??

  • I was waiting for this

  • no any comment

  • Very true.... + 1

  • its 5 MP and Android 2.3

  • SAN: Have you ever used a good CDMA network ? Doesn't look like you have. Because a good CDMA network beats the shit out of any GSM network. Period.

  • Why do you think that it is only for the Chinese market ? Don't you have any CDMA networks in your area/country ?

  • This phone is a joke with a high price tag.

  • very costly ...Not worth spending money (16,900 /Rs ) on CDMA network like Reliance and Tata

  • price point is the key here. if it is more expensive than the samsung galaxy y duos. then this is just a stupid phone not worth buying.

  • we want both GSM sims features in this mobile.

  • Yes, u r right.

  • this samsung ace duos i589 is not up to my expectations,because its cost is high but it has no dual camera,cpu is below 1000 mhz,i want gsm+gsm sim phone.

  • very costly......anyone like galaxy S .its in range and all feature's.

  • It's using old Android OS, v2.2 (Froyo) probably it's will not get Android ICS update spec same as Samsung Galaxy ACE resolution is same and probably it's will be more expensive than ACE

  • try samsung i919 it's out already, at least in november 2011.

  • Looks like any other xing ling from china :(

  • Why are Samsung NOT hearing the calls of its loyal Dual SIM phones customers? PLIIIZ! For all the SG2 variants and not 1 gsm/gsm duos phone!!! They r about 2 launch SG3 and not any SG2 duos variant. SAMSUNG! get us a gsm/gsm dual SIM phone with all SG2s hi end features + ICS! SIMPLE and I will buy it without thought. If NOT, can u pliz explain y all duos phones have got to be low end stuff only!!!!!

  • this phone is the best phone i have ever had, its with out the freezing .

  • No front video camara no adobe flash player no gsm 3g network what price range Rs16900.00 ¿¿¿

  • No offense but Samsung copied iPhone on this. It looks exactly like an iPhone with the 3.5" screen. Hoping Apple won't sue again. Anyway, i'm loving my Galaxy S II & iPad 2.

  • No gorilla glass? No GPU?, No flash? 3.15 snapper as opposed to 5? Why?

  • mmm...DUOS what??? poor screen for an android device

  • Its dual sim ?

  • No video call,no gingerbread 2.3 , no 5 mp camera, no led flash,low res....very bad

  • this is only android dual sim device I have seen unique phone

  • only cdma/gsm what is this, samsung co thinking ? we want gsm/gsm duos mobil - 8 mp hd camera LED flash - 2mp Secondary 3g call - Android OS, 4 (Gingerbread) - Dual-core 1.2 GHz - 16GB, 1 GB RAM - Standard battery, Li-Ion 2000 mAh - Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Wi-Fi hotspot - Active noise cancellation with dedicated mic - TV-out (via MHL A/V link) - SNS integration - Image/video editor - Document editor (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF) - Google Search, Maps, Gmail, YouTube, Calendar, Google Talk, Picasa integration

  • seems to be for the 'CHANG' market. I mean Chinese market... :D

  • it should be 5 mega pixel led flash

  • Cons: 1.No 3G in GSM. 2.Camera Pixel in low class range phones. 3.CPU clock rate and RAM not sufficient for dual network.

  • duos???

  • I wish it would have been GSM + GSM also it could have been superhit

  • It is dual sim active or standby ?

  • Froyo?? What's with Sammy?

  • woh? Why only 3 megapixel cam? Tsk

  • Only new feature is dual sim

  • Froyo in 2012? Seriously?!!
