Samsung I9230 Galaxy Golden - User Reviews

  • I had bought GT 19230 Gold Flip phone. Now the battery is not available anywhere in Mumbai. The phone is working find. Please let me know from where i will get the battery for the same. Thanks Neha

  • It is important to mention that he continues to receive successors: Galaxy Golden Chinese Edtion (SM-W2014): Galaxy Golden 2 (SM-W2015): Galaxy Golden 3 (SM-W2016): Galaxy Golden 4 (SM-W2017):

  • I like these types of flip phones the camera is just average and has flash which I like and has a secondary camera. 4.4 Stars

  • Iphone is more accurate than androids. I bet you know that.

  • unfortunately the text typing has 3 pages of 160 characters ! then all message will convert to MMS and it will not be sent in our country. we cannot send/receive MMS !!! It is the worst problem of this phone. also it cannot be set for our local language on the key path! also front camera is very weak!

  • Halo, is there any chance you still have the phone

  • iPhone is top seller?? And also it's top money-taker of people such as you :) who believe than handing out around 1000 dollars for a phone is worth just for fashion or cliche. Bet you don't even know 50% of features offered by a fr*aking iPhone. Good luck.

  • Do you still have the phone,wld like to have one

  • i think its already in malaysia bro..jz try search in lelong..

  • Send me the link when you do post it up in eBay

  • p;ease upgrade for version to 5 or uper thankyou

  • HI Allan. Tried to search in E bay of your Galaxy golden phone to buy.but couldnot found.if you still have it pls drop a mail ([email protected])

  • I have a "Samsung Galaxy Golden" used, but in immaculate condition, - I absolutely love it, but I am in construction now and and rather than destroying it, I got a shock and water proof phone ! If you are interested I will be putting it on ebay in the next few days - so keep a look out for it - I am in Australia, and it is unlocked, maybe about half price? ! Allan

  • Can't get it from here malaysia.....what's wrong with sales marketing samsung?I really need this phone...

  • This page is not even for the S6 or a iPhone so why would you even talk about it here??

  • well thats all well and good but the iphones specs are nowhere near the s6 edge, the edge is by far the most superia handset here, im an iphone user and even i think that the samsung is an awesome piece of kit guys :))

  • S6 EDGE and if you want something better than both of them go for Apple iPhone 6. I sold my iPhone 6 for S6 EDGE now I'm selling my S6 EDGE to get the iPhone 6. SAMSUNG/ ANDROID can't be compared to iPhone. iPhone is the highest selling for a reason.

  • It is a great phone for it price. The price is reasonable considering this have super amoled screen on both internal and external display. The internal memory is 16gb which is expandable up to 64gb. It have 1.5gb ram which can only be found on a more expensive phone. The 8mp rear cam is perfect. The build quality is super sturdy just like the old brick phone nokia used to make. No need to put tempered glass in both display, just the external. The internal display is protected inside. Flip phone is very popular among Japanese who dislike smartphone.

  • Hi there, im in aistralia to. Are you having any issues with yours? I am... Pm me if you can

  • I thought this only available in south korea because that is what i read from the news article when it was released. So, there was an international released? I want it but the price scream 'hell no'! So expensive for a small phone. If it actually made from real gold i wouldn't mind at all.

  • I want to buy this phone. What do you recomand me? I like flip-phones but i thnk this one is too expensive for its caracteristics. If we compare with S6 edge, which is better? Thanks

  • i love this one

  • are clip covers available to suit this phone in australia

  • I would rate it a C. Certainly not better than low end flip phones like SH-03E but better than F-02D. Idle is about the same as the Noika 520. 48-72 hours give or take a few hours.

  • any comments on the battery life?

  • download the apk but I couldnt install it: I ran the apk but it did not got installed neither see the icon at menu´s phone.

  • The phone is expensive because it has dual amoled screens. Amoled is a most expensive display type. Regards.. A amoled lover.

  • D phone is expensive nd at d same tym I dnt av it in any of d samsung stores in Nigeria

  • Here is the program ustanovite.Mne helped. Traditional T9 Keypad IME

  • this: "SIMTELEP N9 MTK6572 Dual Core Andriod 4.2 Phone w/ 3.5", K9 Keyboard, 1GB RAM"; avaliable at DX dot com I bought one; t9 keyboard its only for numbers input, can not be used for text input (as I expected).

  • Are there any other smartphones with 9-key?

  • That's actually pretty good

  • This is a pointless and useless phone ever from SAMSUNG.

  • 50$ phone??? Did you saw the spec for this phone?

  • fifty dollor phone for $1000 because its Samsung that makes galaxy phone series what a ripoff

  • because of multi screens

  • why this mobile very expensive? XD

  • haha nice specs...

  • Finally I found a samsung with check but unfortunately this phone is available in Tunisia please is what this phone is available in Europe (Germany, Belgium ...)!!!!

  • I've had my i9235 for a few days now. Loving this phone all my expectations for a smart phone flip have been fulfilled.....but the battery life is shocking. Bluetooth is turned off but I am having to charge every two days.

  • Man I want a flip phone. But its not available here wth man this is racism. Talk about equal rights.

  • Is this phone available on the ISS and on the Moon?

  • This looks badass!

  • I love this phone when will it be available in Italy???

  • I believe it is avail at kimstore

  • Its already available, try at Kimstore and Intogadgets

  • Please make this available in the Philippines.

  • This is an excellent handset. What is it priced at?

  • Heaps better

  • Wait in unkraine this model.

  • And texting in Korean. This phone is for Korea. It's very Eurocentric of you to think that texting is only done with Latin characters.

  • Why do you care? This phone is for Korea.

  • The first Thing is PRICE to big in my country is about 500 euro!!! what is this ?

  • I have also the same problem, please ans some one.

  • Is the flip active? I cannot answer it when I open the flip. I need to swipe it to answer. Plz help me to make it active

  • There should be another flip phone which should be little small than this,with only one main touch screen inside flip,with same camera and with little less price than this. Golden color is giving little oldish look. And it should be more sleek.

  • There should be another flip phone which should be little small than this,with only one main touch screen inside flip and with same camera and with little less price than this. I di

  • I like this phone because it has everything i need.

  • This seems like a cool spy phone

  • you can buy a black one.

  • hi i read your review about this phone. Is it too overly golden and girly or is it fine for a guy to use? my only concern is the golden. is there any way to change it?

  • No matter how much the price is and what low end specification it has...... I love flip phones and I have already ordered one..... Flip phones are stylish and I love style... fashion ...which is my passion......

  • I have it on my review. It's not so elite as priced here in Russia ( I can buy two Samsung Galaxy S4 Active for the same money :) ). Too low specs. Too big and bold gadget. But it's full functional Android with two equal screens. If you're interested in full video review watch in gadgetimho.ru a 2 weeks later from today.

  • totally agree, was eagrly waiting for this phone & when i tried it, it almost covered my whole face !!! too big for ladies i guess ..

  • styling not great,,it would be better if they make it sper slim phone,,why would i carry this phone and flip it out oh my god its too long you cant even use in one hand,,come on samsung people are not the same in hand size..have you ever think of your customer or you just think of your profit?

  • i want this phone soooooooooo bad! i am in love with it please samsung sell it in canada!!!!

  • This is a very good phone without any problem as per it's specification. It is going to be a rough and tough mobile phone like old horse N-958GB.

  • i9235 have lte

  • I'd probably snap-buy this if it had access to American 4G :(

  • oh rubbish fone ! shame on you samsung shame . this is very bad just wate of money. what a phone is this . price is great . but it is not suitable for day to day use. bad s4 is better than this . according to my opinion , this is only a waste of money.

  • ****it's not at all a good phone...im warning all th byers to stop byng this...fr ths pric i would gt 1phon5 or s4,s5...simply waste...wat a shaby old look...nt at al a modern phone...dabba...****

  • its amazing gud one "

  • Dude comon one is spending more than 40000 on this feature less phone and moreover it dosent has a goood quality screen......its just a waste of money. I would prefer note 3 or s5 rather than buying this

  • good one

  • after long time flip phone is released i really miss those classy phones.. now a days all luk same no matter how much money u spend...will buy soon

  • which shop did you visit,because whoever told you that the front screen is fake,misled you,both screen work are are high resolution screens

  • It has been released in Muscat-Oman, so for sure it would be there in UAE ..

  • Where can I buy this phone from? is it officially released in the UAE, I don't have a lot of info about this phone. I admire flip phones, although I did want to shift from Samsung because of the plastic quality and size, this one seems pretty good to me.

  • this phone is super. the only propblem i have is there is two displays. the man in shop said front on doesnt work was just a fake it. Have i been stolen monies from

  • We value our money, we dont simply waste our hard earn dime, have you ever seen the market how many pcs has been sold, if you like it doesnt mean its good phone, has same feature classics looks with two Disply, at what sense you need two Display ? simply Money wasting plan

  • just bought this phone, it's superb except that it's too large for a comfortable one handed use and a bit too small as a full touchscreen otherwise no complaint

  • hope to be in Malaysia market.. just wonderful smartphone ..

  • if samsung really wanted to make this a hit a larger screen,better cpu and sum exciting features would of went well

  • Kindly send the demo model to Porbandar at Earliest possible with detailed information to make final decision. .

  • What you people dont seem to understand is that the phone is classy.. for all you complaining on the price, i guess its not fit for you. i admit i felt it heavy on my wallet but you are getting something new in return. the phone isnt your typical smartphone. it has a leather patch on the back 2 pretty big screens with good resolution and its not plastic like the others. you feel a real piece of work using it. stop bitching about the price.. if you truly want it then get it.. dont wish shit that probably wont happen. theres always second hand units if you people wait a few months!

  • Hi Umesh, Where did you buy it? i want to buy also. Can you help me specify the shop or website?

  • Hello,you got from dubai i9230 or i9235?because i buy too ( im not use right now) but i have i9235 with 4GLTE and i9230 without 4G LTE

  • This is a great phone. I got one from Dubai. It cost me 2999 AED. Features are good same like Android. Its' quite handy especially with easy access front screen. Battery is good for a day. Screen resolution is quite appriciated. The phone is quite heavy for me; but it doesnt matter much once you get used to it. The design is quite attractive and eye catchy. The cameras are good enough. Processor is fast and doesnt give you much trouble interms of speed. For those who like flip open phone this is a better option. What i really dont appriciate is the price. Spending approx 3000 AED for this phone is not worth. I bought it only because i have passion for flip open phones. Overall i am happy with the device.

  • the price is too heigh

  • i wish it were cheaper...im waiting for prices to fall...hope against all hopes?? maybe :(

  • The mobile price should be less if samsung wants to bring trend back he should have started with little. not with huge price the flips are old trend.

  • is the 1820Mah battery sufficient to power the two giant super Amoled screens and the 1.7Ghz processor? err..the battery would last max 4 hours!

  • The device lloks great! If samsung has just made the device cheaper, then they would have profited more... Personally, i would buy it if it was a cheaper.. i really miss the era of the flip phones... :) i still use a nokia n76 despite of having an iphone 5...

  • This phone has two big super amoled screens! That's reason for its price. I'm sorry for my double posts! I wasn't see that they are posted!

  • why this phone so expensive? what the special we can get..only cause of clam shell design...glxy note is cheaper than this phone

  • Samsung thinks because they were the first to slap Android on a flip phone, they should make as much profit from it, rather than promote it.

  • Why is this phone so costly I don't understand

  • #Samsung, When this phone will be in Europe? Any place, please, I will travel there and buy it.

  • I meant to say that browsing through the phone's menu and dialing phone numbers is horribly slow with any touchscreen. There is no fast touchscreen on any mobile operating system yet.

  • Where can I buy one in New York??

  • Why couldn't just make it perfect? Why limited HSDPA and no LTE? Why not just to make 6.0 or at least 5.0 screen size? Touchscreen is only good for internet browsing and texting. For browsing a phone menu it's still annoying!

  • I like this model,samsung 19230 galaxy golden...but i don't when came to malaysia....?

  • I think it's over featured, chunky brick. Who will want to buy it? Not me, for sure..

  • nhi its not possible...

  • ab bol bhi de yar

  • Beautiful Look & Style. appx $815. I simply love it.

  • Why did Samsung released the phone?

  • That's good to know, at least theres hope to get cz i went all over samsung shops in Oman/Muscat they had no idea about it !!!! I think its round 3000 Dirhams yeah

  • It is already released in Dubai and Kuwait

  • i think will i purcharse next year because this is more prise

  • i think maybe next year

  • Any idea if this phone will be sold in Gulf area ??

  • ok.....you used it...............tell me.........is there an onscreen qwerty keypad?

  • ultimet sexyy.......

  • Sexy so so sexy soo sexyyyy!!!! ;-)

  • Samsung wanna be bankrupted or what... so high price for a folding plastic... if this becomes trend... its fine... else... samsung gonna finished

  • can i scratch the "gold" off the sides???????

  • i dont want keep it at your showroom

  • Oh really, this phone for $800. I would rather buy another android phone with same specs and a flip phone and also a tablet

  • i lurve flip-phone but this phone the price is to high..so expensive !

  • I like this phone.I specially like the flip phones.But he price is exorbitant.Can afford only in dreams.

  • too much price.....samsung never setisfide their costomers.....go to hell samsung

  • I definitely want this phone.

  • This Phone Is Available in the philippines?

  • Looks very nice for people those cares about classic button mobiles. I am one of them. But the cost too much high ! I can get a good big screen mobile with other little one with buttons plus a tablet for this price.

  • its too costly

  • all coming up as $800 wtf? for a flip, what is the price.

  • ths pc is very good

  • dont waste ur time...its very expensive piece of junk

  • So retro... :D

  • Why not sick of these boring miserable slab boring lifeless no design all look the same full touchscreen phones.

  • a flip-phone in 2013, like really?

  • am using this phone and it's really good... price is a bit high bt d look and functions of d phone r awsum.. gold finish of ths phone is making it real classy

  • Personally flip/clamshell phones are my favourite (open to answer call and close to end a call). I am looking into getting one myself... given the price is reasonable of course. Samsung brought the stylus back with the Note series, why not the clamshell? They don't all have to look like the iPhone. At the moment, they all look the same... boring.

  • I think I should go for iphone 5c ... how can Samsung decide to sale this phone in this price!!!

  • is Samsung joking with the price, please look into dis matter if they want to sell this phone

  • How can I get it to buy cos I live in Lagos Nigeria? I love the spec.

  • I cannot remember when was the last time i saw a Flip/Flap phone being sold on the market. Well at least not here in South Africa. Looks like Samsung is looking to bring the flip phone back into fashion. The only down side of this sort of phone is the wear and tear of the flex cable but the again Samsung must have come up with a new innovation that sort out the need to change a flex cable every 6-12 months. I must say this is a very Bold move buy Samsung to bring back the flip phone

  • Wat a price

  • hye, is this phone is still available? how to buy? thank you.:)

  • best android mobile

  • nice cell

  • Lol It's $1,100 on eBay. I would get this phone if it came in black and it's not worth the money.

  • Nice Phone

  • hope this will be in dubai

  • would love it but the price is just too much.

  • its a nice phone

  • Hw much did u buy it,hw bst can u convince us to buy it,i mean based on the functions

  • One man's is another's poison,i lv the fone bt the price is too exorbitant samsung should see to ds

  • Hw much did u buy it,hw bst can u convince us to buy it,i mean based on the functions

  • I have been using this beauty of a phone which gives you a good feeling right from the first grip. Though overpriced, the instrument has its own charm for all the admirers of flipphones. I see is as an improvement from N92 Nokia. The feel is all royal and after those large paneled smartys, this looks much like original real phone with appropriate improvements of these days.

  • how strong in the main flex an are available for purchase

  • Beauty design I am waiting to buy it

  • hahahaha

  • Too much costaly

  • Expensive.........

  • Finally something different. It might be overpriced but I'm glade there is something to break the monotony of the modern smart phone design.

  • overpriced mobile.....

  • Hopes Samsung gives a better edition of this phone at 4 inch display and at a lower price !!

  • Can you make it just black and lower the price?

  • Good ideas for Renaissance of Flip phone with high specs.

  • samsung giving again failler model

  • It 's like my Moto Rzor V8 luxury, that i'm using every day along a Note 3 and iPhone 5. That means , pure style, and yes still today bends more necks than the samsung note 3. I hope put hands on this new version, soon, and with today tech' ammenities. Again two thumbs up, you , Samsung guys.

  • Flip phones still do have lots of charms, but in the case of this one, Samsung has killed a would-have-been winner with an expensive price tag. At this price range, there are lots of big screen smartphones that have a lot more appeal, and sense.

  • A very expensive Flip Phone. Cheers!!

  • Amazing how they can fit 3.7 inch screen two of them and still keep weight down this low. Fish I had this back in the days

  • I just love flip phone's very much

  • I just love flip phone's very much

  • yep,

  • Finally! I knew flip phones would return, I loved them!

  • nice & good looking phone with two touch and as well as with the great feature .................

  • When will Samsung launch these specs in full QWERTY model? Because we are BlackBerry users...we need from Samsung this type of Android phone.

  • nice ,sexy ,I need.

  • Very Good phone I just bought it.

  • Why is it so expensive? Is it because of two touchscreen? Unreasonable at all

  • Instead of the outside screen the Keyboard should have been touch screen..to give qwerty option

  • Doesn't need such phone having secondary display. Its useless. better to make a quarty phone having the same spec.

  • No Nokia Best

  • stick to nokia for physical keypads.

  • Also telescopic phone, look funny hit the roof indoors when talking lololol

  • 15mm thickness to thick for me brick days.

  • just because its made by market leader does not mean its good . nokia has also made some crap phones

  • Good job!! Samsung team,will hope that samsung company will goes smooth market. Whish you HAPPY DIWALI to my samsung team

  • I have been very sick with all the touch screen phones , this is another fresh breez for me. It doesn't matter where it may be, am in RSA and i can get from any part of the world.

  • LOL, I heard that this device would get quad-core CPU. It was too good to be true :D. Really nice device (Specs-wise) But wouldn't it be kinda akward, to use this phone....Just saying

  • this is the phone i,v been waiting for.......... clamshell design right....

  • This looks really nice, neat and classic. The specs is enough for the handset including 4.1.2 and processor. Hope S Africa will get them too!!!

  • No

  • Bigger internal screen despite physical keypad and smaller external... Nice job Samsung, LOL

  • this dual screen with the samsung u750 dual flip and e-ink keyboard would be a killer kombo. no joke.

  • Cheaper version with qwerty....plz samsung

  • .huh? T_T

  • I've been waiting for a flip phone, unfortunately this isn't in any way what I expected. 15mm thickness??? 2 huge screens?? For what? It seems Samsung didn't know what it wanted. They made this phone completely idiotic! Why put such a huge screen and keys on the front? It seems stupid to open up the phone! If people wanted a bar phone, they have plenty of choice! It's just sad...

  • Just like how people love using flip phones ,, there are people who love using QWERTY phones ,, so SAMSUNG , please we need a QWERTY phone. You cant just end the evolution of QWERTY phones now.

  • I am really happy to know, that Samsung is launching this Flip mobile , i like Flip phones, but in Samsung its awesome , i will must buy this phone,,,,,,,tnx SAMSUNG.........love u

  • Isn't it ? Overpriced ?

  • When I look at the picture, I see two screens with the same size. When I look here it tells 93.3 mm (3.67") for both screens:

  • Can Samsung make a cheaper version with QWERTY keys?

  • I still prefer the real keypads that's why i'm still using sony xperia with sliding keypad. if i will replace it, this would be my top option.

  • Wats so great in this phone dat i shud pay so mch for it...i love my note 3...its jst awesome..i need not thnk of any phone now for a year or two..

  • i really really want this phone. but unfortunately, Samsung Indonesia doesn't have any plan to distribute this kind of phone in Indonesia. :( i hope they change their mind, cause i believe market for flip phones still exist in Indonesia.

  • This is one phone which does say that the thinking in Samsung is not all that clear and there is someone who still feels that the physical key pad phones are still going to have a share. Yes, phones with physical keypads have a market but that is the lower segment and considering the cost of the phone, people might actually prefer to buy the top end models offering top ends specs rather than this phone which actually tries to please some but in the end, pleases none, but then this is just my opinion

  • It's a great phone it's fast and the battery last for about 3days.. Thanks Samsung... Would reccomend this for my friends..

  • External display should have been bigger instead of internal. Internal could have been a bit smaller preferably.

  • I agree, full touchscreen phones are all piece of trash phones. I9230 might be my next phone because it does have almost everything I want except theres no support for 3g 900mhz. At least it does support 3g 2100mhz.. Battery seems to be quite small, but if the battery is removable then no problem because im sure that seidio or mugen power will produce better battery for the I9230.

  • Launched in India for an unbelievably high price of 50000 rs !!

  • Cheaper model ?w/o external display

  • samsung big victory is diversification of models, samsung w999 version advanced this one, it will hit more in youth section especially for girls side... Thanks samsung. we will expect more flip and slider design in touch series...

  • Yes, Like what I want to say.

  • Currency????? from where I come from, PHP 22K is still expensive. Lenovo has a phone at PHP 14K (around USD 325) that is a quad 1.2, 4000mAH Li-Po battery and 720p 5" screen

  • Its a phone for those who hate touch and bar phones!!! Touch texting sucks for those with big fingers!!!And not all want to buy a case to protect the screen of bar shaped phones!

  • You ever heard of diversity??? There are older people that don't want the latest and greatest phones and want to stay basic. Duh...

  • Samsung should not take us back to this old fashion phone. I'm dissapointed in Samsung

  • PHONE IS NOT BAD |||But price is too cost ||| i am using note3 ||| its nice |||

  • cost is too expencive /// no one can buy this phone // its true dude|||

  • Well i think there is lil bit touch in gold thats why its price so high and the my grandfather have that type of mobile..:D old style flip. samsung.....

  • 590euro go to hell sansun

  • Samsung is a Company that has foresight in their Marketing strategy. This phone brings back the Old nostalgia memory of Phone like the Motorola V series, but with modern technology packed inside the Phone. I will definitely buy this Phone if the price is right. Keep it up Samsung, you deserve to be No.1 All your HPs are with memory Slots and removable batteries and that is what your Consumers want. Good JOB

  • production quantity might cause this handset to be a bit pricey. if it proves to be a bit popular, they will make more of this phone and as a result we will enjoy the economy of scale and see its price dipped to an acceptable level. let's support this kind of phone. :)

  • Too bloody pricey A phone of that specs should be not more that 22-24 k max It too expensive Samsung hello are you there

  • I am in right mind and I would buy it subject to price,its got precision d-pad and I am sick to back teeth of tapping at a silly glass screen..Buttons are meant to be pressed with a nice secure click. I would pay 429GBP sim free for it.

  • What is the purpose of this kind of keypad now just to dial number?????

  • Who, in his/her right mind, would buy it?

  • love the design, love the idea more, but seeing the price tag, i can say that... I'M OUT OF ITS LEAGUE !!!

  • i m samsung fan and i will say nice specs...3.7 inch screen jellybean 4.2.2 super amoled screen 8 megapixel camera 1.5 gb RAM and 16 gb internal memory really great work by samsung........i appreciate samsung work never like negative comments

  • 4G not sported..,

  • Thank goodness someone else likes these clamshell beauties.

  • i m samsung fan and i will say nice specs...3.7 inch screen jellybean 4.2.2 super amoled screen 8 megapixel camera 1.5 gb RAM and 16 gb internal memory really great work by samsung........i appreciate samsung work never like negative comments

  • i m samsung fan and i will say nice specs...3.7 inch screen jellybean 4.2.2 super amoled screen 1.5 gb RAM and 16 gb internal memory really great work by samsung........

  • Nice phone!

  • Absolute ultimate smartfone keep em coming,sick to back teeth of boring monobloack,miserable slab devices.. I don't think there is a need for a huge screen on front tho just a general info screen with D-PAD for precision selection and send/end buttons.What I would like is an E90 Nokia style device,PERFECT.

  • Clamshell style devices were very popular in 2005, 2006, but now it is not. Not even in Japan are not popular these days. Low-end clamshell phones would be a good idea I think.
