Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 - User Reviews

  • Phone Wi-Fi

  • Please updated this. I cant even download snapchat, its not updating. This is a Old Version PLEASE UPDATE!!

  • You can download an update from google make his version 2.3.6

  • Every time I try to Install messenger and Skype, it says that the app is not compatible with the device... what does THAT mean? I uses line too but still cant do video call because the front camera is not working when I try to make video calls... anyone can help me on this? and, how to do the screen shots? Need your help, please? THANK YOU..

  • I cant download other apps its say there is a problem parding the package

  • Press and hold at the same time the home and the back button.

  • I cant download other apps its say there is a problem parding the package

  • How to screen shot with this phone? Help pls tnx

  • purchase by mistake wanting a 2.3 or above. but device is a great sz runs well i just want to see if i can upgrade to 2.3

  • Hi, how did you get that on the galaxy s wifi please?

  • This is an absolutely terrible device. I've had it for just over a year, but it was awful just a month after I got it. It's always lagging, apps take forever to load and crash often, the cameras aren't worth a dime, and it's still slow with an SD card. I don't have a ton of stuff loaded onto this, but I can tell you, it's not worth your time. I also have the LG Optimus Elite, which has the same RAM and only 1 or 2 GB of internal storage, and it's still far better than this. 0/5; do not recommend.

  • I`m rocking the Android 5.0.2 on Galaxy S wifi 5.0!

  • its gud bt the camera is unzoomable... and the os is a old version and it isnt updating...

  • Its not a phone it a mp3 player

  • Well when i brought my samsung galaxy player 5.0 it is an abouslety brilliant device it works fast and the camrea is fantastic ashame that i cant get it on kit kat but you cant have evry thing in life :(

  • Mate how did you get it on andoried kit kat???

  • Love it. I bought it for a cheap froyo and a week ago; Its now an Android Kitkat device. Perfect, all apps are now supported and the battery life much longer. Still own it for a year. Probably deserve to buy if you know all rooting/installation of custom roms. Credits to XDA!

  • Just today (9/8/2014) almost 90% of the apps that I have installed and/or purchassed are now saying are not compatible with my device. I think this mini mini tablet is still a great device, untill today. Now is time to search for a new device... :'(

  • Player 5 wifi update Kikat 4.4.2 :D

  • Hi ive had this device for 2years now and to me, its not a phone? I use it for facebook, games youtube etc. Can it be a phone or would it only be good for skype, facetime etc? What can i do?

  • Sold my ipod touch immediately when this came out, still use it everyday. All it needs is proper Android upgrade from samsung. XDA has kitkat roms for this with awesome performance but the rear camera is broken on it... Best device i've bought...

  • Good tablet. I have been using it for 3 years now without problems.

  • I LOVE this gadget. I use it EVERY day.

  • support

  • how can i remove the back.

  • how reformat the samsung galaxy s 5.0 wifi yp-g70 and how to delete all files in your samsung galacy s 5.0 wifi yp-g70 eccept the application like google, facebook , talk, gmail, youtube, email, play store, calendar, camera, maps,and specially game.

  • it's not a phone

  • no its an android based mp3 playe..

  • can one put in a sim card in it? how do I remove the back cover?

  • I have one it is great it is also a phone I plan on getting another one soon

  • You can use it anywhere, it's not a mobile phone, but a media player (like a tablet). It uses WIFI to connect to the internet, just like a PC or laptop.

  • No, it's a tablet.

  • I wanna know if I can use this in Australia.. Im thinking to buy one, reply asap. thanks

  • thanks ...

  • no sim?????????

  • It's quite good! I have one and been using it over a year and quite happy with the 5 inch screen where ican watch videos without straining

  • For what I use it for, mainly playing videos and music, it's excellent. The camera is good too, but holding it and taking a photo needs practice.

  • i dont play fancy games in this gadgets and i use my old little phone for calls, so i dont need too much processing power. For what i need it, which is: set up a calendar and projects, skype, take some pictures and videos (which dont need to be hd quality), upload and download content, read pdf (its incredible to read on this),surf internet, learn languages (i use flasch cards and babbel apps), scan documents and turn them to pdf, use evernote and dropbox, carry ebooks, use comunication tools, read MS office documents, its the single greatest piece of technology i ever bought. Sure, by now there are more fancy phones over there, but it does what it promises.

  • is it a good device ? please users of galaxy wifi 5.0 answer me !

  • The Samsung Galaxy Player can be upgraded to 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. Look

  • Yess.. iam buy samsung S wifi 5.0

  • if you cant upgrade to jelly bean root and get a rom for it

  • it cannot be upgraded to jelly bean

  • It's not a phone

  • It won't get any Jelly Bean upgrade due to Hardware Limitations, which I fell is odd as Sony had upgraded Sony Xperia Mini Pro (Not X10 Mini Pro) which had lower specifications than this POWERHOUSE.

  • Does any one know if this phone can support sandisk sdxc 64gb??? TIA

  • hi,id like to ask if how did you upgrade ur OS into jelly bean?? thanks

  • Wow, you are using jelly bean? is it rooted? can you tell me/show me link hot to upgrade/root n use jelly bean please... thankyou before

  • Excellent value, plus I'm running Jely Bean

  • very good phone once updated to android :)

  • If you havent updated it since you bought this Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 5.0, well i only installed the Go Launcher I dont know if thats part of it but anyway yeah how can i update it if im not mistaken to 4.2 right? Guys let me know as soon as possible.. Thanks :) x

  • nope you cant make it as a wifi spot, like iPhone4s

  • its an amazing tab....bt couldnt find the calling option....totally unknown cz its manual is in portugese so couldnt find it out..

  • Excellent device! It is very similar to Galaxy Note, except that the Note is 0.2 inches wider, has AMOLED screen, and a bit thinner.

  • Can i make a wifi hotspot?

  • It's a very great device, but its lacking of update especially ICS rom

  • Update it to ics and all the user of this device will be happy .

  • does it have sim slot?can turn into wifi hotspot?

  • what about updating it to 4.0? Is it possible?

  • android v2.3.5 and v.2.3.6 original roms available for this device. more information ; i upgraded to 2.3.6 via odin because kies seem to very complicated to me.

  • @ PsyChoGKK That is where your problem lies; your Firmware is out of date. A lot of Apps these days require Gingerbread v2.3.6 or later to run.

  • 2.2.2

  • Does anyone know if there is an OTG cable available for this player? I have tried several but none of them have worked. I have a feeling that the player isn't compatible with any OTG cable, unless someone knows of one that works.

  • @ PsyChoGKK What version of Firmware do you have running?

  • man i know that im telling that when i pass the apk file and then selecting in from astro or any program it say problem to analysis the file :@@ :/

  • @ PsyChoGKK Goto: Settings> Wireless and network> USB settings, and select Mass storage.

  • @ John If you want to update your Firmware to Gingerbread v2.3.6 then go here for the International ROM: You will find the links for the files you need and instructions for flashing. I live in the UK and purchased my player last week. I was disappointed to find that it was loaded with FroYo and that there was no official update. I flashed mine in less than 10 minutes and it is now on v2.3.6. I didn't have any problems using Odin, but if you decide to take that route then remember that you do it on your own back. The instructions state that you should have Kies installed on your PC, but I've found that Kies is a pile of cack and should be avoided. As long as you have Samsung USB drivers installed on your PC you will be OK.

  • guys do anyone have the same problem with me?????i cant install apk files and i have allowed it to accept apps form unkown resources.it saying when i go to install problem to start install or someing like that.any help?

  • I've been using this tab for a year now & im totally satisfied with it, the battery life is way better than other phone of samsung even if i used it on gaming in a day.. It can txt and call via apps in the market, just look patiently on apps itself. Why would u need a phone in one gadget go buy a simple phone that can txt and call. So u can maximize this on other things. Plus the problem is the user itself why do you want to always flaunt it.. That you want a complete device in one. In my opinion buy it separately so if you lost one of your gadget, its not as heartbeaking..as it will.

  • Oh my gosh you're so studid! It says that it not support GSM. That means NO!

  • Nope this is kind of like of works like an iPod, it's just for having fun and other stuff :)

  • no. there is no sim slot for this device

  • cant we put sim cards in it??

  • can you put sim card in it in the menu is an contact logo but evary one seas you cant put sim card in it im confused :(

  • plz can someone tell me can you put a sim card in it plzzzzz???

  • Are you from the US? Gingerbread upgrade is not available in the Philippines, but that was 4 months ago. I'll try again using Kies.

  • Mr Barbel, There is no TV or HDMI output on this device and the micro USB port does not support "USB host" or "OTG". The only output available is the 3.5mm headphone socket :-( but the 5" screen is surprisingly good for watching videos etc on the device :-)

  • What!? On amazon this ran android 2.3 gingerbread!

  • does anyone know if samsung galaxy wifi 5.0 has a tv out functionality, TIA:)

  • hoping that samsung will take an action to update galaxy wifi to a newer version of android. because 2.2 is getting older and older :/.

  • what country are you in to update it through kies??

  • i wanna buy this one because of its free wifi..does it have built in wifi that i could browse the net anytime?

  • guys this is like a huge ipod touch!

  • I've got this device through my friend and i wanted to sell it but...when i opend it up and started playing around...i sadi this thig is going nowhere...It's great!! hires movies..internet on the go...if u have an ok phone this is a reat addition...

  • What about wifi? Is it good? U can browsing like pc? Open all apps?

  • can i call with it ??

  • Device is actually pretty useless. WiFi doesn't stay connected - has some disconnect problem that seems to be prevalent with WiFi across most of the Samsung phone range. Samsung isn't bothered to fix that and their service is TERRIBLE. I've been a fan of Samsung on other products, but in the mobile market they sell on visual appeal. Sadly their phones are very buggy.

  • on your device, Go to settings>wireless and network>usb settings select samsung kies so that the software will recognize your device when you plug it in the pc. then update when needed.

  • my korean friend said, its a media player... mini tab i guess but Samsung's rival to ipod touch

  • It's not a phone, it's a mini tablet.. it's the like "iPod" for Galaxy phones

  • This device is more of a mini-tablet, it doesnt not have phone features so txting and phone calls are missing.

  • i need help to upgrade this to 2.3 gingerbread... I suck at this..

  • how? i downloaded samsung kies on my computer then when i connect my tab to it. samsung kies cant connect to my tab and i even tried the troubleshooting error. still it wont connect. advice please

  • samsung kies dont work on my samsung galaxy wifi. it dont connect at all. someone please help.. i want to upgrade it to gingerbread...

  • One of the best tablet ever ..........

  • Doesn't have Corning Gorilla Glass? oh

  • you can update it from samsung kies (look at samsung.com)

  • How'd you update it?

  • Dude! The official update is not available in all regions, Dude. Samsung clearly doesn't value money received from all customers the same. Why is the update available in the US, for example, but not in the UK and other places? Why no ICS for that matter! 7 months and still no ICS

  • Not possible through official update. Good luck with risk of unofficial, if possible at all! Thanks Samsung!

  • Dude! Do some research first before you comment. The gingerbread update had been released already a few months ago. It's much more faster and compatible with most apps with the upgrade. And i must say it has superb battery life.

  • how to update it to gingerbread??

  • Two year old operating system with no plans to update. Forget Ice Cream Sandwich - it doesn't even have Gingerbread. No support from Samsung either. Get an IPod Touch instead!

  • Now I just got disappointed by the cost-benefit relationship of the Galaxy Player 5.0. For little ($40) more you can get an unlocked AT&T Captivate from Amazon which works just fine with my carrier.

  • Now that's something worth trying. I really wanna buy this. Taking the words from another comment "at 200 bucks it's a stealth".

  • Has anyone tried the "SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC" on this gadget yet? I know the card is supported by the GNote ans the SGS2 when formated into the phone. Since the card is $67 and the Galaxy 5.0 is $198 on Amazon, $265 sounds like a sweet deal for a WiFi mini tablet with 72 Gb storage (maybe about 68 Gb user accesible).

  • Does mi locker and other widget locker works on this ?

  • good for watching hd movies and playing games

  • Is there a compatible stand with the tablet? Can you listen to music without headphones?

  • Just remember this is not a phone this is more like a mini-tablet, the screen is as good as the new super AMOLED and the game support is great, Modern Combat 3, shadowgun, DeadSpace, Hot Pursuit are games that works just perfectly with no lag or problems, the speakers are louder and cleaner than my mini-stereo it has it's disadvantages like the customization or finding an alternative rom, but if you want a "portable console", music, a GREAT camera, and the louder speakers you've heard this samsung is fot you

  • JUst updated it to gingerbread 2.3.6 by using samsung kies and battery life is better, no issues and it is much more faster than before

  • The Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 has no phone. Internet access is very good using WiFi and it can be used for Skype, video streaming and everything else you might use your internet connection for. It's a bit like the iPod Touch in many respects but much bigger. It also has many other uses and is a brilliant device.

  • i m watching on this review page that,it has no edge,no gprs,no speed.is these crroct?internet is very essencial for every phone user.

  • This is really amazing. Satisfies me..i'll be keeping this item for long for sure...better than itouch and ipad..

  • this device is amasing . it costs less than an ipod an yet is waaay better. i had an ipod touch 4g and this device blows it away. the baterry is incredible , a full day of gaming without a problem ! and the display is fairly nice . for 200 bucks its a steal !

  • Disconnect your router and modem and wait ten seconds to reboot.it's a froyo glitch

  • will be update android 4 for these phone?

  • can someone could tell me about Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0?

  • i saw this being sold for 418 us dollars and thats a bunch of crap. it is double the price of the ipod here in zim but ipod has double its specs but half its screen and the store selling it is a samsung store what a brand. the s2 goes for 800 dollars and the s5570 mini for 350. samsung has become all about profits with their cheap quality plastic phones and i am dissapointed being a former samsung fan. am going to apple!!!!

  • how long does the battery?

  • No!!!

  • I already have an iPod touch 4g (which I love) but thinks this looks amazing! However I've seen there's a new beats audio notebook by HP around and that looks really good what would you recommend? :)

  • Just pair it with Gmate so you can call and send sms on it.

  • can a simcard be inserted in this phone?

  • yes the battery is not removable but i heard it has really good battery life

  • does this have hd recording like the ipod touch 4th gen?

  • Checkout custom roms on galaxy player at xda. ICS/CM7/CM9 are out already.

  • i am thinking to buy this gadget, but heard that the battery can not be replaced, so if the battery drain very fast or totally dead, can i do something about that or the only way just dump it and buy a new one?

  • Does thos device have camera zoom?

  • i maybe restoring your device will fix your wifi problem, if this helped let me know?

  • try to restore your device,maybe it would help and fix your wifi connection problem.hope it helped

  • Hi There, Me also having trouble to scan wifi. Its happening since two days. I try my best to scan internet connection , but it says sorry can not scan wifi or even save . do yo0u know the reason? If you find please let me know. Thanks.

  • Galaxy comes with 2 navigation programs with rute setup. Nice and fine. But having only WI-FI connection it does not work for me on the road. Maps on new areas can't be downloaded in the fly. Even a bluetooth connection to a phone does not make this work out. Totally worthless if I have to preload all places to go in forehand in all zooming levels from home.

  • that is like an ipod touch in galaxy version, only player multimedia, internet, etc, but phone

  • Can You Call With Samsung Galaxy WiFi 5.0 ?

  • it means that it does not have a sim card slot and its not gonna make phone calls ,because it doesnt have a gsm network ,but it does have a wifi to call and text via wifi using the android market apps for calling and texting via wifi

  • under its specs, it says there that it is "not a phone".. den wat it is mean?

  • can anyone give me a kies exe file ? because when i use the one from the website it just keeps connecting :s

  • Been using this mini tablet for about 2 months from now and im definitely enjoying the features of this device the screen size is perfect the portability is average not too big not too small.Samsung just announced the samsung galaxy s70 its more of like an upgraded version of this it has a 1ghZ dual core processor and a 5mp camera.

  • I already upgraded mine to 2.3.6 via kies. Just use kies guys... One thing that I mentioned though, I'm having issues with its wifi. I don't know if it's a defect from my tab itself. :(

  • how did you get 2.3.6 gingebread on this device

  • it runs Shadowgun quite well...:) i had it for about 2-3 month on OS 2.3.6... and it's really a fun device to have...

  • well im using this device for gamings i have bought shadowgun on the android market and it runs pretty smooth. I love this device and ive been using it everyday especially when i'm bored i usually use this for gaming and it's really worth buying for.

  • Can anyone tell me how shadowgun runs on it?

  • hi just a bit of an information i watched the video that you posted and sometimes its not about the device its about the game ,because a 1ghz single core processor was really fast on my opinion although it is not a dual or a quad core device like the samsung galaxy s2 this device is really worth buying for guaranteed i've had this device for about 1 month and it's really amazing especially for everyday use even though it does not have a gsm network.

  • I am very interested in the device but I am kinda scared to buy it at this moment. If the google nexus releases soon or the asus memo 370t. Also when you look at the video you see it crash at the end. So i am still on the fence for this one.

  • yes I am. :) So far, what can you say about its performance? Is is worth it? :)

  • well then buy a freakn dual core or quad core processor device if it a bit slow for you ,that why its just 1ghz single core processor hello well expect it that is not gonna be really fast like the dual or quad core devices.

  • yes i hav it sound quality is great but dont buy it it is a bit slower buy a gingerbread device

  • This device is really worth buying for,because even though it does not have the gsm network you could still send messages and call from U.S and other selected country via WIFI using TEXT PLUS AND CALL from the android market.

  • im planing to buy this unit, but im having second thought because it has no GSM. im asking if its worth'ed? thanks :))

  • is this up-gradable to gingerbread? pleas answer

  • is this up-gradable to gingerbread? pleas answer

  • No my friend,this is no phone

  • Frosty the sound quality of this mini tablet was perfect on my opinion, because it has a soundalive stereo enhancement Samsung created this device for music, games and internet surfing for everyday use I recomend you to get this mini tablet its worth buying for and it has a long battery life.

  • Hey I'm thinking of getting this device, can anyone tell me what the sound quality is like?. I'm really hope it sounds great with headphones!

  • The best tablet on my opinion so far. Not too heavy not too light,Not to big not too small. Just perfect for everyday use.

  • hi would like to know how much are you willing to sell ?

  • I just bought this a week ago and updated the OS to Gingerbread through Samsung Service Center and it is now more responsive after the upgrade . It's my first time to use an Android device and I find this device fun to use. I am currently using a Samsung phone with windows mobile OS. Playing videos and music on this device is great which is my main reason why I bought it. Being able to surf on the internet, play games and install useful application on this device is a good experience and very useful for me since I cannot do it with ease in my old phone with an old windows mobile OS anymore.

  • this one's really great especially when it comes to its battery life. It took me 2 days before its battery drains, within that 2 days I'm playing games, listening to music, taking camera photos and more, it's really awesome. Great samsung product, a must have :)

  • It won't be able to send or receive SMS, MMS etc, since it don't have GSM support. Its only communication ability rely solely on wi-fi.

  • I have tis mini tablet. But i hope can upgrade to higher version. Pls advise how & where can do the upgrade. Tks...

  • i got 1 full set used half year to sell it.

  • hi..is this available now?pls msge me

  • Hi guys just wondering how to root and update the os version to 2.3 on this mini tablet

  • Anyone knows if the WiFi transmitting power is higher then a regular smartphone? I'm looking for a high power WiFi android smartphone

  • there is no slot for sim card...So, no calling or texting...only calls using different internet applications...

  • I take it as an Android equivalent to an iPod Touch 1. With a larger screen - iTouch: 3.5 inches - Galaxy: 5.0 inches 2. Better battery - iTouch: 40 hours music - Galaxy: 60 hours music 3. Expandable memory using MicroSD (up to 32GB) 4. Control and freedom of Android OS (2.2 though) 5. More RAM 5. Faster CPU 5. Flash player Your choice..

  • Its not a phone. Its a simple tablet with wifi

  • is this really a touch-screen phone or a tablet?? i'm quite confused with the description and the comment. i'd like to buy it since its a touchscreen, but i want to confirm if its really a cellphone that can send/receive text messages and call just like the rest of the cellphones.

  • Been using this for over a month....the battery is amazing...one weak point is that it has no zoom for camera...how could samsung miss ZOOM in a camera?? it works better after updating it to v2.3. a really good device, can be considered as a mini-tab...

  • Well that phone is really great on its specs ,but i rather choose the bigger screen rather than the Samsung Nexus even though it has the ICS platform I used this tablet for games and video chat Im not really a Samsung Nexus fan thanks for the info by the way.

  • very considerable price. pero kung gusto niyo ng mas maganda ung totl. head for samsung nexus. :) available na siya sa smart plan 2000 :) the very first ice cream sandwich os in the world. :)

  • after updating to 2.3.5 this thing is amazing much way smoother than my note w/ go luancher 2.80 and longer batt. if this was a phone it could had been my all around cellphone. except the amoled,8gig and 3meg camera. you wont regret this if for surfing,reading,listneng,viewings and play fast!

  • Been using this tablet for about four months now and it's pretty decent. I use it mostly in gamings. I've been waiting for the official Gingerbread or ICS update for this device. HOPEFULLY soon. From Philippines,Cheers!

  • The price actually goes down to 11,500 pesos, but before its 12thousand

  • it's 12k+ :) are you from Philippines also?

  • been using this wifi phone tablet for about 2 weeks from now and i would say its really amazing and pretty fast with 1 gigahertz single core processore and 8gb internal phone memory, Im using this phone for video chatting with my girlfriend and its really amazing with its 5.0 inches display the battery life was really long and powerful eventhough the wifi is on for a day im using this phone 24/7 and its really amazing especially for gamers out there even without a gsm network.

  • you bought it for how much? :)

  • There's already a good ROM for 5.0. Just search around on xdadevelopers. I wonder if sammy will update this product this year.

  • This wifi tablet looks like the Samsung galaxy note without a gsm network

  • Can Anyone pls help me and tell me how to update it...

  • This tablet is very awesome. with its large screen, and long battery life, it's worth it. Just bough it locally (PH) and it's really better than an ipod touch. :)

  • Can i use this in Facebook games?

  • I finally got this phone about 3 days ago it works really smooth,but one thing that i noticed is the multitouch i dont know if its just a factory defect i tried the multi touch test and sometimes the multi touch doesnt respond but everything works really great.im enjoying this wifi phone so much.

  • It's not a Gorilla Glass but the screen is protected very well...no scratches during 4 mouthes excepts glossy back side

  • just the right screen size and weight... but the battery seems to be less than 8 hrs...

  • can I use broadband if wifi is unavailable?

  • This is not a phone! This is just a tablet!

  • this is the best phone tablet ever.nice job SAMSUNG

  • Through Samsung Kies, cant wait for ICT upgrade, hopefully.

  • On the first charge how long does it take? Mine is taken forever.Cheers.

  • you can upgrade it through samsung kies

  • I'm struggling to get my navigation to work after activating the GPS. Please help

  • is the phone have messaging like other phones?

  • Hi! How did you upgrade yours to gingerbread? Thanks!

  • hi guys im just curious abou the screen of this device ,because it does'nt have the gorilla glass scratch protection ,i just wanna know if the screen can easily be scratched or no?

  • i just wanna ask. how to take screen capture on this device? thanks (^_^)

  • Seems odd that they would release a phone which almost 2 times as heavy as the Galaxy S I or II also, being smaller than the Galaxy Note, it is still heavier!! whats going on??

  • How did you upgrade the firmware? thank you

  • Hey guys im confused between the samsung galaxy player 5.0 and the samsung galaxy s wifi 5.0.whats the difference between the two devices>

  • hi guys its me again i would like to ask if this wifi phone supports vibrate mode for notifications and games

  • Im gonna get this phone by this end of the month and im really excited to have it on my HAND,I love playing games and with a 5 inches screen display its amazing for a gamers like me.i would like to know if this phone supports video chatting on skype,and hows the quality of the video?

  • im really gonna get this phone by the end of this month i love games and a 5 inches screen is really amazing for gamers like me.i cant wait to buy this wifi phone

  • thanks a lot from your info.

  • Yes it does support gameloft. I think one of the few things it doesn't support is tera games, except Sprinkle (game). I recommend it. The battery is just supreme. It latst easily a whole day, even with wifi on.

  • can I use broadband connection for my internet if wifi is not availabe?

  • im gonna get this phone soon,for me its the best tablet its like the big samsung galaxy s without gsm network,im just concern about the gaming of this multimedia phone does it support the gameloft games?

  • this is the best tab of all. thanks samsung

  • Incorrect there is no cyanogen mod for the Galaxy Player/Galaxy S WiFi 5.0. You are getting mixed up with the Galaxy S phone. There are however some custom roms on xda with small tweaks/root access.

  • Cyanogen team have already released cm7 they are currently working on cm9 which is a port of 4.0 :) hope that helps.

  • does it have an international keyboard?

  • Have you gone nuts? I use mine all the time, with or without WiFi! It's a great device for videos and games, thanks to full codec support, the big screen and the gigantic battery life. I have over 20 hours of video inside it (with a 16GB microSD card) e dozens of games. Using minimum brightness settings, headphones and airplane mode, it easily achieves 10 hours of SD video playback or 8 hours of HD video playback, I've already tested.

  • Yes, it does, and quite well, actually.

  • No!

  • I will be receiving my new tab 5' . if i have a data in ms excel,can i read this in bigger image and appear automatically . to what extent is the size if my font is 12.

  • Now on Gingerbread.. Worth waiting update.

  • hi, does skype video calling work with this device?

  • you can still use the tab Ways on how to use Samsung Galaxy S WIFI 5.0 1.Download videos through the computer and save it in the said device. 2.Download themes online and transfer it through the device. 3.Take photos and videos. 4.Look at the photos and videos. 5.If you have android games already then play them. that's all!

  • I have it and I have already updated to gingerbread via kies :) checked out again ;)

  • You can use the pre-installed think free office. it allows you to read as well ar create office docs, presentation and spreadsheets

  • Are you sure? i checked the firmware using samsung kies. it said that the pre-installed version, i.e, v2.2.2 , is the latest and that no update is available. if it is available, pls do tell me how to update as i am desperate to use gingerbread on it.

  • Its not a phone therefore you dont have a dataplan, if you have a sim in it it would be classes as a phone... its a pmp.

  • 4.0? ics? where did you gert this? youre the first person (i found) to say this.

  • i have the same problems too. huhu i dont know how to fix it. :(

  • This one doesn't have GPRS or 3G?

  • why is dat my samsung just turned off?? when d battery is not yet low batt? and now i just cant turn it on..

  • I thought it was a version of Samsung Galaxy S and was about to consider this for someone a gift !!

  • Read the text and you see that you CAN'T SMS (Short Text Message) thus you can't text.

  • Do not buy this...what if you don't have a Wi-Fi Connection? Then you can't use this Tab...

  • Can you text on this?

  • any information about its gpu???

  • you can, with polaris office :)

  • What about office? Can i use power point m, word on this device??

  • Great device. Samsung guessed my need. Much, much more than a "player", it is extremely useful. Key benefits: weight, screen, battery life. For me, perfect. A month in use. EXPECT THE GALAXY 6 ... I hope that Samsung NEVER STOP THIS LINE. TOO GOOD.

  • Is it possible to view screen in landscape mode? I tried one at HMV and did not work in landscape mode... JMCFroggy

  • When I turn on the bluetooth of my tab it and make it visible, it will be only visible for 120 seconds. I'm just checking if there are any option to remove the seconds countdown and make it visible permanently. Thanks

  • 2.3.5 is last firmware for this device. 4.0 will be realised soon

  • I've tested it at some local Samsung Store in North Borneo. Basically, is like a Galaxy S without the phone with a bigger screen. Performance is alright and the display is amazing, not as crisp as the Galaxy Nexus but the colours are awesome. You get all those Android goodness :9. Just Imagined the first gen Galaxy Tab with a smaller screen.

  • i want to know that too

  • Can i update its OS to android 2.3 or higher?

  • I love this tab. It's handy & user-friendly. The battery lasts up to 3 days for a mix usage of music & games & it has bluetooth for file transfer.

  • No zoom :((

  • how can i root my galaxy wifi 5.0? anybody who know about this? help. → Go to Search the forums. Guys, I just want to ask its camera has zoom? thanks → Read the manual

  • with 5.0 inch screen, is it difficult to type with this tablet for long hours with thinkfree word document?

  • how can i root my galaxy wifi 5.0? anybody who know about this? help

  • Guys, I just want to ask its camera has zoom? thanks

  • I love this gadget it certainly fits a mini tablet. It's a perfect compliment to my Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro, why? Has more internal memory, bigger screen, long lasting battery (tested on normal use got 12 hrs using 2.2), in between my smartphone and Macbook Pro this one is very handy, perfect weight, perfect size. The price is very cheap but the device itself is rock solid and doesn't feel odd. Stop comparing it to an iPod, this baby can do more especially with Android. Even though it's on Froyo it does well and doesn't really need to be upgraded. But I'm waiting for a custom rom like CM7/8 to bump the speed more. If you already have a high end smartphone this is a good partner for it. My only gripe with it is the charging time, it takes me 3 hrs to fully charge it.

  • I thought this GL S Wifi not coming to Malaysia but yesterday I see it being display on Samsung store..The price is Rm859 not very different with Galaxy Ace Rm789...But this is Galaxy S Wifi is like Ipod touch because it not a phone..

  • i'm using this MP3 Android Device. it comes with 2.2 Froyo Stock rom from Thailand. Yesterday, i just upgraded it via Odin update to 2.3.5 Gingerbread. 2.3.5 is very smooth and better than 2.2 Froyo. Free Ram on start-up is 228mb/376mb while 2.2 froyo is 212mb/376mb (test by click close all programs in GO Launcher EX.) Neocore 59.6 fps. Quadrand : 1681 Aututu : 3000 SO if u are using 2.2 Froyo, i strongly recommend you to upgrade it.

  • bulok ka crazy guy...you dont know what you were making a comment about...

  • izzit can make video call or not?

  • Any plan of upgrading this to ginger bread? Ginger bread has vibra and click in the city the city w/c i think is very useful and trending.

  • ipad is cheaper than this,

  • i think alot of application uses internal memory instead of external memory to store, this is one of the disadvantage due to developers not creating their aps to store in SD card.. however you can opt to root it and get a software to actually recognize ur sd card as an internal memory.. i heard abt this. not sure if it works on every android device.. but you nvr know til you tried it.

  • For me it took 3-4hours to fully charge but usable up to 7hours straight. I use it for my games

  • Ordered and waiting for a non-gsm long battery life android experience. If 7.0 tab was cheaper my choice would be on the tab side. With wi-fi,medium range camera, option to read e-books way better than 3" ones, i think samsung galaxy s wi-fi 5.0 is a great deal for a price of 220$.

  • if the battery is built in?

  • is this the same as the Samsung Galaxy Player 5? because that comes Android 2.3 right out of the box.

  • this phone is cheaper than ipod touch 4g and this phone cant call

  • Try installing Apps2SD or some other similar apps from the marketplace. These programs will allow you to install apps on your sd card.

  • Hi everyone, i just need help regarding the memory of this gadget, i understand that it has only 8GB of internal memory so i bought an external memory of 16GB but everytime i download something on the web (especially videos) it ends up eating my internal storage, and nothing on my external memory. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as i would really want to download more videos into this great gadget but i cant do so because it eats up the remaining internal memory. Tnx a lot in advance.

  • Hi all, I'm looking for a nice, handy, quick and unlocked smartphone (as I'm always travelling and need to change SIM cards all the time). Don't know anything about technology. Need some advises. As I'm travelling to US I though I could buy it there. Any ideas if I can face any technological incompatibilities afterwards in Europe? This might be a silly question... but just wondering if it may cause any problems. Thank you C

  • Can this device be updated to android v2.3? or can this device only have v2.2?

  • Can this device be updated to Android v2.3? or is it just v2.2 it can have?

  • Great choice. I am satisfied. Everything looks better on a 5-inch screen. I said everything. Missing 3g on the road? No problem. I have another Android 2.8 inch screen only for Wi-Fi hotspot. GPS is great. .. Read ebooks is great Games is great ... Samsung is great.

  • 1 Ghz

  • 512 mb

  • Can anyone plz tell how-much RAM it has ????

  • Very Nice.. I like this model

  • whats the difference of having a gingerbread with froyo? is it that big of a gap?

  • what the difference of have a gingerbread with froyo? is it that big of a gap?

  • Price should be updated. No way this is 490euro. This is retailing for less than half that here in the Philippines.

  • Yes you can follow this great guide!

  • i like samsung s wifi

  • my tab froze twice now. Is there a way that I can do a hard reset? Holding the power button does not work. It is so frustrating. It froze for about 4 hours. I was not able to do anything. Am afraid it will happen again. it already happened twice within a month.

  • is there any way to upgrade this to gingerbread? the charging time of this thing is 5 hrs from 0% to full charge is that normal? its my 7th charge already!

  • whats its actual price ? any body help me ?

  • Any idea if this will be upgraded to Gingerbread? By the way, I just noticed that this has no tactile feedback?

  • i bought my samsung galaxy S wifi 5.0 last saturday... i find it soooo nice and portable.. I love the apps.. i was planning to buy the galaxy tab p1010 7 inches but the saleslady told us that it was already out of the market because people preferred the p1000.. TWO THUMBS UP!!!

  • 490 euro for a media player??? Can someone double check the SRP please?

  • The bluetooth on this device is great, I'm currently using it stream audio to my Ford in car audio system. I have also used it to transfer files to and from my laptop, a little slow on large files but still works a treat.

  • Why US version has Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread? :(

  • Hi, Can I download Whats App and ChatOn into the samsung galaxy s wifi 5.0 from market , and could it work like an ordinary Samsung galaxy s or s2.. Thanks..

  • more details. Gpu: PowerVR SGX540 CPU: ARM Cortex-A8 Processor RAM: 381Mb Display : gorilla glass ???? I have no idea...

  • I have one, and im sick of Froyo, can't find upgrade for Gingerbread... i guess im stucked.... its sucks!!

  • Albert: "this is supposed to be a multimedia device, not a tablet nor a phone.." It is a multimedia device.

  • actually it does have a retina display... but without IPS which make iphone 4 screens have wider viewing angle. but everything else in the screen is the same

  • Hi All! Is the device stuck with just Androd froyo 2.2? No plan for gingerbread yet?

  • Actually as we all know the ipod 4th gen it doesn't have retina display as the Iphone 4 / 4S... it has a regualar dispay LCD

  • Sold my ipod touch 4th gen for this. Hands down the better pmp between the two. The only thing I miss is the ipods retina display.

  • 1 question is the Bluetooth capability of this can connect and send some pics or songs from other cellphones? or is just for wireless headset?

  • The device is great. Much better to have separate device for music and video even browsing on the net. I even sold some of my devices to have one. The price is cheaper than what I expected. You can buy this device even in Abensons (mine bought in Market Market). Much better to have small phones than bulky devices, even those cheapest ones that can really fit. Just download good applications to enjoy it more. No need to Root this one, almost all applications that I need has been preinstalled.

  • Got mine, writing my comment with it. This is one of my all time favorite gadget sold my acer iconia tab 7" to this and loving every single minute of it, actualy i got stuck with i touch and this im happy i pick this coz of its monstrous screen size and most importantly the battery life of this i still havent timed my usage yet but this thing lasts loooonnnggg than i expected besides i dont have any credit card for getting an account with apple coz like to pay in cash... Highly recommended and fun!!!!!!

  • How long is the charging time for this one?

  • I'm afraid not. someone know when samsung is going to release the update?

  • where can i buy in the philippines the hard casing for the samsung galaxy s wifi 5.0? please help.

  • you cant compare dell streak 5 to galaxy s wifi 5.yes dell streak is a phone and has great specs but the phone is slugish it hangs most often 2nd the battery of dell is 1530 mah over 2500 mah of galaxy wifi 5, you can use dell as a phone or multimedia but for how long? think twice do you really need a phone with a 5 inhes display on it? naaahhhh!!! i rather have it as a multimedia device only...

  • Camera on the Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 is actually a 5MP, not a 3.15MP, as in the Galaxy S WiFi 4.0

  • Can you update this tab's OS to Gingerbread?

  • you should see samsung galaxy notebook.has 5 inch screen and greater resolution.

  • Villman and Asianic, mostly these stores are located at SM Malls.

  • Villman and Asianic, mostly these stores are located at SM Malls.

  • About the Dell Streak 5, you can buy the item for as low as 13,190 Php to 13,500 Php (for cash buyers only, 15,000+ Php for credit-installment) at Villman and Asianic, mostly these stores are located at SM Malls in the Philippines. I've got the Black one. It's a great Android tab-phone. Great specs and cheap price compared to its competitors.

  • hi, where can i buy dell streak for P13,900 here in the Philippines??? thanks

  • this is supposed to be a multimedia device, not a tablet nor a phone..

  • Ram is 386mb and it has a mic for voip and video calling via wifi

  • these are NOT phones

  • where in philippines can i buy that dell streak?

  • does anyone know how much ram does it have ? and if it has a mic

  • In the Philippines, Dell Streak 5 is hot on sale right now (as of 10/2011), before, the srp was 20k+ ($500+) but right now it's only 13,190 Php ($300+). Isn't that great?! Buying a Galaxy S WiFi 5.0, you better think twice. In Dell Streak you've got plenty of great specs: 5inch (Gorilla) Display, wifi, bluetooth, 2 Gb internal + 16Gb external micro SD card, 512mb ROM and 512mb Ram, lots of pre-installed application made by Dell and it's not just a mid-tablet but it's a phone too! A 3G phone (that could send sms/mms, receive calls), and acts as a portable wifi too...

  • Wifi Hotspot? how can it be a wifi hotspot when the unit itself depends on other sources of Wifi to connect?

  • Galaxy S wifi 5.0 and Galaxy player 5.0 is just the same. Some some screenshots of the galaxy player 5 on the net last night and it shows that it is also YP-G70.

  • Here in the Philippines, our galaxy s wifi 5.0 has froyo os only. Hope we can update our galaxy s wifi 5.0 here from froyo to gingerbread because its unfair if they will only release a gingerbread os to U.S. only.

  • No, this is Samsung Galaxy S Wifi 5.0, not Samsung Galaxy Player 5. This one comes with Froyo and is already out.

  • just bought it, its on 2.2.2 (FROYO) so, you're wrong.

  • it will come with android gingerbread 2.3.5 not froyo 2.2 ..

  • No Sim Card, it is not a phone. The back of the case does not even come off.

  • Wtf you can't SMS on this.

  • Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 can insert a Sim Card?

  • On the Secondary Camera is clear?

  • market, download live wallpaper, select your live wallpaper.

  • 12990 sa MOA. How can I use live wallpaper in galaxy s wifi? Please help!

  • a device without edge, GPRS or 3G ??? what will be one's opinion about such a device? Its only a media player not a phone or communication device...? BAKABASS HAI...

  • you don't

  • Its quite tricky how to use any applications with video chat or calls, haven't used it for video calls and i already download all the apps that offers video calls but any of which is not working.. Please post some reviews on how i can use skype, tango, qik etc., on this gadget... Thanks...

  • does anyone know the RAM of this device and if it has a GPU?

  • Camera & video quality is ok for a 3mp & vga cameras.if ur into taking pictures once in a while it should be sufficient but not really great compared to high end ones available in the market.all really depends on what ul use it for.hope that helps.if u like there are videos available in youtube exhibiting camera capabilities of this device for ur perusal. Have a nice day! (^_^)

  • It's cost IDR3000K (US$350) in Indonesia, +++ free mini wifi router

  • you can use it with skype or another app that can be downloaded from the google android market. You may need to pay for this but it is for sure alot cheaper than any phone service

  • id also like to ask hows the video and camera quality. tnx.

  • how do i use it as a fone?

  • i bought this last week and i must say that i'm quite satisfied with it. i intend to use it as an ebook reader and a music player. the two speakers at the back is sufficient volume wise, the headset that came with the unit was a real disappointment since its all plastic and is not quite as i would have liked. the screen resolution is adequate, i usually keep the brightness at the minimum to save on the battery which usually lasts 2.5 days on standby plus occasional web browsing and video playback, which by the way is superb given its 5 inch screen. all in all, if you want a multimedia player that could adequately meet your daily dose of entertainment on the go, then this device is definitely one to consider... plus, its affordable... bought it from samsung store in a mall here in the philippines for Php11990...

  • I really like this machine. Battery life is EXCELENT (2500 mhA). Not too heavy, good sound (very good indeed, not very loud though), excelent screen (but i have seen better) and, well, Android. I was looking for a machine to replace my old and good Palm TX that died 3 months ago. This certainly meets my expectations. Besides, i have already a phone, and by exoperience i have learned that using one machine for everything is not the best choice if you care about battery life. I'm just missing one thing. In my palm TX, i used my phone as a bluethoot modem to browse the internet from the Palm, and made calls directly from the Palm Address book. I mead, i dialed in the palm and the phone made the call. I still can't do this in Android. Besides that, is an excellent machine. If you love old-school PDA's, you will love this tablet.

  • can anyone here comment on its web capabilities? can this open 2 or more websites at the same time with no log? can it do video call over Skype?

  • hi sir, does it have corning gorilla glass? and how long does the battery life last?

  • how about the GPU for 5.0 and 4.0?

  • Can you use Smart bro's Micro Sim here?

  • i love the features, saw the price, really want it, but its not a PHONE~!!!!!! T.T

  • You can get it for PHP 12,400 at CMK Cellphones:

  • Where can i buy here n the phils.

  • the one that was released here in the Philippines isn't the korean version but i finally realized that it's okay not to purchase that one. that version has DMB tv which only few countries can support and unluckily, Philippines is not one of those countries. please share your opinions regarding this device! you're getting me excited! thanks :)

  • its already out in the market here in the Philippines. i got one and its awesome. you should get one guys.

  • its already out in the market here in the Philippines. i got one and its awesome. you should get one guys.

  • its already out in the market here in the Philippines. i got 1 and its awesome. you should get 1 guys.

  • its already out in the market here in the Philippines!.. i got 1 and its freaking awesome!!. you should get 1 guys!!!..

  • Galaxy S Wifi 5.0 or YP-G70 (YP-GB70 in Korea). it's not yet available in all countries but i can't really wait to buy that one. here's the link for its tvc : :)

  • Hi Janet! Would you please tell me what's the korean version name or model number? Where can I purchase that superb version of this great device? Thx.

  • i love its korean version better, it has 5 megapixel camera and an antenna for mobile tv. i want to buy this device with those features. it should be made available in different countries, for sure a lot of people would buy this device with that version.

  • I think this one is better than the iTouch. Watching videos on this 5� screen would be pure joy! Will be buying one sunday!

  • Just had the chance to test this baby a few minutes. Unlike most people I would purchase it even without GSM phone functionality. Great device to use at home to have a quick look into the web while watching a quiz, show your mother the latest photos, enjoy a video and so on. And for phone functionality you still have VoIP. Out of the house you can pair it with someone who has WiFi either as a hotspot or a GSM-phone with flatrate and WiFi. So you have many possibilities to be online without GSM. Positive - EXCELLENT image quality of the display - all functionality you want to have relaxing at home or staying with friends Caveats - browser did not adjust to wide format in my tests - browser had difficulties with flash - no way to set position in video. I used this for tests: Negative - Android 2.2 only; should be 3.x. I don't think it will be possible to update (Android demands some technical features for devices to operate under 3.x). Nogo - display is 800x480 (10:6). How long will it take them to understand, that a display *must be 4:3? Use a 16:9 window for videos, use rest of display for the userinterface. Those overlays are stupid! Other reasons against 16:9 are photos taken in 90° degree mode, too short display for browser in wide mode...

  • would have been better if this is a phone..

  • is this an apple ipod ?

  • why this not phone ??/ what is this

  • is it dual core?

  • please some tell the price

  • I live in Cambodia and want to know when this baby arrive, this is much much better than ipod touch. sorry apple you are going down.

  • ya u can connect to ur pc or lappi for 3g data.....u just have to download "pdanet" from the android market on ur mobile for ur mobile as well as for ur system...

  • Plz, plz, plz... Samsung, you should release out a kind of 5" inches smart phone/tablet for GSM with similar functions/features/specifications to Galaxy S II! It's really rock!!! I really love such a size phone since it will give more convenience to use multi-tasks/functions with better vision and portable everywhere. It is my wish and like other million people/clients around the glob, and hope Samsung is the one who can realize it! Even though the Dell Streak was already out, but it seems unmet my expectation... So, plz Samsung! You are the giant and predominant branding one who always respond to the client's wand and need with financial balance of the company's profitability and sustainability for the long run! Looking forward to using the mentioned smart phone from you soon. Thanks,

  • can we connect a usb modem for 3g data access ??

  • And LG screens (for Iphone 4 at least).

  • The GPRS, 3G, EDGE are missing whether it will be added in future when its come for the market can any one tell, rest of the option are nice

  • Love is baby waiting for Samsung release

  • Most people still don't get it... Apple is using Samsung chips.. Samsung is way better than Apple phones...

  • samsung was sued by apple 4 this looking like d ipad lol

  • go for S2....

  • Put phone function like Dell Streak, is the best device with 5" screen.

  • i am keen to have a 5 inch phone and tablet too

  • make it a phone...add a 8mp camera, a full hd vid, led screen, duo speed, then its my perfect tablet phone...

  • Cool but should the camera 5MP at least

  • gret phone but charge not available

  • Put this device but not the ipod touch.

  • So great with 5" wide screen, but why don't includle GSM system?

  • are u blind? 2.2 froyo not 3.0 lol

  • Dear Friends I am really astonished to see prices in samsung mobile i have personally bought a good corby from www.adsindex.net i have search all the catagories of that site thats great and number of cheap sets available over there

  • dude i think it is gsm certified, look it up on youtube, i'm so psyched for this thing, i wanna know the price and release date

  • is it support Android OS 3.0?

  • Funny, hovering your cursor over this in the Samsung gallery describes it as an "Android smartphone" This probably contributes to the confusion.

  • I have acer aspire one ZG5 NETBOOK OS Windows XP very cheap in price if this tablet have same or lower price than this one is better to buy but not a replacement of my NETBOOK

  • please please please samsung, make this gsm voice capability and i will wait in line to buy one

  • Pay attention people. It's not a phone. It's 5" tablet with WiFi and Bluetooth ONLY.

  • Looks great ... but no gsm support??? Please do something for GSM users...

  • this phone is dont have pocket internet n hd video. dont buy this phone same price getting galaxy i9003

  • perfect choice for 5.0 inch capacitive screen for who loves, with almost minimal specs. for how much it will be?

  • a rivalry of apple itouch 4th gen... but without an hd video

  • nice cute,.,..,

  • Perfect compliment to my Nokia E72. Cheaper than getting the phone version (and I don't have to give up my E72, which I love). Anybody know if the player has a TV-out function?

  • That is not a GSM. Read the specs. :P

  • stupid samsung could have made an amazing phone and could have beaten the heck outa dell streak.

  • Is it mini Tab, with 5.0 inches screen? like PDA with WiFi? too pity :( maybe samsung launch this to compete Ipod? it's mix between function in samsung Tab and the size of Apple Ipod, with big storage, Internal 8/16GB storage and Card slot microSD, up to 32GB. The point plus is it has Android OS, v2.2 (Froyo) with CPU 1 GHz processor. How about the battery life? Can Samsung accommodate this?

  • it is not availible in malaysia

  • I do like the size of this phone... I wish Samsung to release such a size phone out soon for the GSM with similiar or better specs of galaxy s ii... I n my friends will be their customers promptly. Good luck Samsung to be the giantly dominated smart phone producer sooner or after!

  • This is not a phone. Please read the top line of the page.

  • stupid, dell streak without telephony

  • Its not a phone.

  • This phone was my wish. Thank you samsung

  • It is supposed to be available in the UK around May, and in the US later this year (Late q3 or q4)

  • A 5 inch tablet is perfect for mobility. I am currently using an Aigo 5 inch tablet and it is perfect for travelling. I use it to watch movies and read books in the plane. Gets me through hours of boredom at the airport waiting for my flights. This Samsung 5 inch tablet looks like a winner already. I am ready to replace my aigo with this. Certainly beats my aigo in a lot of ways! Can't wait!

  • Finally a device that out does the Ipod touch in every way. I hope that the Galaxy S 5.0 will soon be available and it comes with a better price tag than that of the Ipod touch, also that the likes of Sony Ericsson, Motorola......... follow suit

  • 5 Inch is a good idea, yet Galaxy S 2 is a better one. Wish GALAXY S 2 came as 5 inch. that would be a killer. And the Headphone is miss-placed should have been at the bottom.

  • not phone..

  • this is a multimedia device only made by samsung to compete with ipod touch... and i think this is better than ipos because it has a larger screen and it is lighter

  • if the specs of samsung galaxy s2 are in this machine... i can say, samsung created perfect mobile. how can the galaxy tab capable of voice call and this thing is not? come on samsung... make this a smart phone and this will be the new flagship... what do you think guys?

  • is very good samsung galaxy s wifi 5,o

  • Clearly this is not a mobile telephone rather a mobile tablet device which uses Wi-Fi as a source of communication.

  • samsung... please make this a phone, i'm waiting for this size like the dell's 5in. although i'm very very satisfied with my galaxy s but it would be much better if the screen size is 5in... please...

  • this gadget like iTouch from Apple.

  • read at the top of the screen "Tablet with no support for GSM voice communication, SMS, and MMS. This is not a GSM phone, it will not work on any GSM network worldwide."

  • this is called galaxy s player in korea. it is like the ipod touch w/front facing camera and an inferior rear camera (3.2mp, korean version).

  • Back cover looks very nice. Would like to have it on SGS.

  • i want this kind of battery on my galaxy S

  • this is not a phone!

  • this is a phone or same thing as ipod touch ? I'm very confuse. watched in youtube they said not a phone and they said mobile , so what is this ? same thing as ipod touch also cool , 5" !!!!! love this baby

  • This site said: "This is not a GSM phone, it will not work on any GSM network worldwide." My question is why is it even on this site? Can you make a call on it using Skype or something? This is not SkypeArena.com This is GSMArena.com. And why did Samsung create such an awesome looking device with no GSM capabilities. I would be firing someone if I was in charge at Samsung. The DELL STREAK seems to be the only serious attempt to make a mid-range phone. All others seem to be too big or sub-standard to the current market just like the Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0. Always on the look-out.... VIP
