  • i have been using this samsung steel 4 about 2yrs now, but, and the screen is faulty, i cant get a better replacement of the flex, both d camera flex too, someone should help me here

  • Had this phone for at least 2 years... it functioned properly... Decent phone and really user friendly... But the sliding is a bit unstable and gives away after a few months... Still it was my best buddy for the whole time... it will not let u down...... :)

  • i had this phone as a present from my friends 2years ago and its the most user friendly...when i broke the screen i changed it very easily....3months ago someone had stolen my samsung steel and i cant stop thinking about it...it was the most mobile phone i was in love with...a phone which is very easy to get but very hard to forget...its just massive

  • I can't use anymore my L8 because I can't press anymore the alphanumeric keys...There's no specs here in our area... How can u help me. Where can I buy the specs needed? Tanx.

  • ever since buying this phone, it can work with SIMs like GP, Aktel and Banglalink, even Teletalk, (can make and receive calls) but not Warid (cannot make calls but can receive calls). just cant understand why? anyone kind enough please help me what I can do about this problem! my e-mail - [email protected]

  • we can not tv on this mobile

  • I Want use internet on my phine l810v Steel how i can use opera mobile site to download program

  • If it was only his comment that is totally illegible here... Why do people create stupid abbreviations and invent words to make their typing more confortable? Instead of taking 5 seconds to understand what they're saying most normal people should take 5 minutes and that should be completely banned. The posting rules here are "English only" and not "alienish or invented language allowed". --- My comments on this phone: 1.Terrible screen in direct sunlight. 2.Crap material quality although good looking on the web. 3.Horrible slide. I'm a bit rough on mobile phones but this one didn't last 3 months without seeming to fall apart on every move.

  • I really like my phone, it is professional looking, and is very customisable - you can add a shortcut directly to a blank message, contrary to what was said below. I do wish the ringing volume were a little louder, and the screen is a bit fuzzy to me. I am not so worried about the camera, its serviceable, and I have a digital camera for taking photos that I want to keep. Overall, I like this phone, it has what I want at the price I was willing to pay for it.

  • Decent phone, nothing special though, back scratches loads, had it for two years and no problem, screen isnt good in daylight however, as previously mentioned, got it for free and selling it to envirophone for �42

  • Hy dudz! yesterday i bought dis fone in Bangladesh. i thot dis is a phone with more comfort by less money. da looking is cool, features r not bad, camera is grt althu no flash and the edge works awesome. Tanx samsunf and voda fone. the scratch on it woud b the main prob i recon. by the way i got the steel phone by 8500 taka( around 122 usd). i bought2 gb memory card by 7 usd, though the phone supports upto 8 GB. All java games supports nicely. cheers.

  • For Gods sake learn to bloody speak..your post is totally illegible!

  • isn't there anyone who can tell me it have equalizer or not? please

  • One of the best design phone around but not having flash with camera is a big let down so don't try to use it at night. Video record quality is also v bad.

  • Hi Its a goo and stylish mobile.I love it very much .but i cant get any software.Please can you tell How could i get applications,Games And themes.How to use mobile tv

  • It have equalizer or not? how's sound quality?

  • Also I forgot to say, its useless in direct sunlight as you can't see wots on the screen doh!

  • V disappointing, I have had Samsung for 6 yrs and functionally this has gone backwards, no shortcut into a blank SMS why???, no flash for the camera, wot is the point of a 3meg camera you can't use in the evening/dark??? Also the Quickshift is useless, it just duplicates wot I can put into the shortcuts doh! I really wish I hadnt bothered.

  • Nice Phone.

  • how to use call divert in this phone?

  • this phn is gret realli fast software good durable body nice keypad vbrythins ryt abt this cell phn ... am usin it for abt a year nou ..nd it hasnt cosd any truble at all ..

  • I think, u may find the (_) symbol by long pressing of the # sign.

  • it's a way lot cheaper than the sony ericsson fones. i think it's a gr8 bargain

  • is dis worth buying??? can anyone help me or advice me... thankz...! (.^-^.)

  • can anyone pls pls plssssss help me with an information regarding this phone? i just can't find da underscore(_) option in this mobile phone neither in the message editor section nor while typing an url. can anyone suggest me what will do?1,* or O?pls help me...:(

  • trust me, DONT buy this phone. (No has no flash, someone asked) Buy sony ericsson W810i instead. I have this phone and it's... well not worth a dime as far as i'm concerned. You cant even get a game on it, coz samsung has some things locked up and u just cant get any costum software on it. I'm very disappointed in it. My next phone gonna be TouchPro2 most probably.

  • does the mp3 have album art and equalizer?

  • i am thinking of buying it...should i? whats with the flashlight-is there or not?

  • I love this phone - I am getting it for free!

  • this is very nice phone.& it use very easy.i think it is nice its camera nice but it has no flash light

  • Anyone who wants software for this phone, visit this site

  • i think its a fab fone the memory card slot really helped me all mi mates think its a great fone 2

  • i've been tired of using this phone coz i can't download any software

  • Yes opera mini 4.2 works on this phone. I have it on my applications.

  • jus switch off the fphone then on again, then now try out the camera one more time, its a thing with samsung phones.......if it doesnt work then take your set back to the dealer for repair or replacement.

  • mine did that, just do a hard reset and it should be fine. to hard reset you take the sim card out and restart the phone without the sim card in, then put it all back together again and hey presto, sorted. hard resets fix all sorts of niggly little software problems. hope this helps

  • Samsung L810 Steel camera failed I bought a Samsung L810 phone. I tried to take a photo with it today and it came up with an error box saying "camera failed". I am hoping that it is something to do with the settings, I hope someone on here can help. that was worked before Regards Jack

  • does this phone support office files.....i had a A701 and it did have a document viewer...can someone please get back to me...

  • beutiful handset. very reliable. great camera!

  • Hi What OS does it have ? Cheers

  • It says the phone has flash, it doesn't. Good phone though.

  • I think samsung is a very nice phone easy to use, if you think is not value for your money why don't you try motorola, than you will be greatful. franch.

  • the camera doesn work anymore. it turns the phone off.

  • This battery only lasted me 23hrs! i am really dissapointed!!

  • ok for �10 per month deal on voda but not a penny more

  • this phone doesnt have a flash this site needs to get its facts right.

  • I've been using this phone for a month, here are my impressions: Pros: 1. great value for the money 2. very loud and clear sound during calls 3. nice business look 4. easy to use Cons: 1. extremely easy to scratch, both metal and screen - I never put it on anything hard but nevertheless it became full of thin scratches 2. materials are not that great - besides the scratching you don't have that feeling that you're holding a metal phone - perhaps because of the weight or the fact that the metal has some kind of polish over it, it feels like plastic when you touch it. 3. the slider became a bit loosy - not much but enough to annoy me.

  • How do you activate the flash on it? cause i can't find out how to and it's bugging me :L

  • seen for �63 delivered on www.littlewoodsdirect.co.uk

  • i like the phone its the best i c so far wats the going price ?

  • does opera mini 4.2 work on this phone?

  • also im on my second of these fones because mine was faulty the camera did not work at all and kept freezin the fone up. this one isnt much better because the camera is unbelieveably SLOW...

  • there is no flash on this fone either which really gets annoyin if your at parties and stuff. i'm lookin for other fones to buy cos mine is USELESS.

  • i have had this fone now for just less than 6 months and believe me it is good to start off with but it does not respond to anything i tell it to do. the screen goes funny and doesn't work for about 5 mins afterwards. it also takes about 3mins to turn on. THIS FONE IS CRAP DO NOT BUY IT.

  • Mat1210 I have this phone and trust me it is a great music phone but I must tell 7-8 hours of mnusic playback is a bit too much.I can guarantee you however that with a fully charged battery you can Get 5-51/2 Hours music and I think thats Ok.Go for it not as loud as nokia but a lot more stylish,and just as capable.

  • can anyone tell me, how does the music playback compare with nokia 5310 as I am tempted with both but can only afford one of them, I need something around this price range that will play music for about 7-8 hours or so (i work night shifts which get very tedious) which I know from personal experience the 5310 does, cheers

  • phones by big brands like samsung and nokia aren't copies of each other. samsung will make a phone to compete with nokia, they wont make copies. its the same story with cars

  • Hi! I've got a samsung steel and I can't put java games into my phone. What's the java code? That doesn't work: *#9998*4678255# Pls help me! Thanks.

  • Does this phone have flash on the camera?

  • This phone is great, very user friendly I bought one unlocked and its working great in Ocho Rios Jamaica,Good camera 3mp not 3.15/3.20 as per specification. I must say i thought the g600 was great but this is better especially for the males it feels tough unlike some more expensive brands that feel so cheap. Keep it up samsung your way ahead

  • Cheap!!!! Wats da price?

LoL:)

  • Hi, you can make your own themes in the theme builder,I've just made one, almoast the same like in the samsung u900 soul. Btw, it's a nice phone,I use it as my second phone,cause my Qtek 9000 is sometimes to big, when I go out and this stylish mobile can go in to every pocket:) Great done samsung:)

  • Has this phone themes? Because samsung's menu isn't interesting. Answer me please. It's urgent. I'm confused about N70, 5300, L810v or Vodafone 810. Thanks : )

  • If anyone want this phone you should know that I have it and is at a very low price. You can contact me at mail above.

  • Does anyone know what speeds the HSDPA can get up to?

  • hi, has anyone tried putting opera mini browser on this handset yet? If so how'd you get on is it simple enough to do?

  • It is Samsung L810

  • hi daman u shod enter a cod probebly [*#9998*4678255# and after dat its activating.after dat select yor jad file go to option and install the java .

  • Im asking how to get java games on this phone. This is the only problem for now that i have with this phone. In all other ways the phone is better then great. Sorry for my english.

  • Your phone is difficult to connect with the pc for using the internet. I don't know clearly to connect it. I had tried for many time but it still not happen with my PC. I really want to use internet in my computer because the phone's screen is too small

  • how to download java games??? They don't work in .jad or .jar.

  • it dois not have arabic lunght

  • does it work with 4GB or 8GB micro SD?

  • does this have a flash or not? conflicting reports on this specs say yes but computer says noooo

  • this might be a stupid question but are the top buttons touch??

  • got a i900 omnia .google it 16 gig internal bought an 8 gig stick.buy this one

  • nice looking phone, but the most up to date pc studio has no driver to support it, so usb connection to your phone doesn't work. Major downside. Phone returned.

  • Shame you can't spell intelligent then isn't Lawrence McGinn. This phone looks like it does all I require of a phone particularly the battery life. However the spec says it has a flash but I have noted the comments that some say it doesn't have one.

  • sure u can use it as modem u can dload new pc suite ,am also using it as modem its working good..

  • Yes, this phone is very easy to connect to Vista and to transfer your pics. I've found that the the battery on this phone lasts much longer than my previous phone, and the camera is pretty good. I love this phone, the only thing is it is a little bit big but I'm willing to overlook that!

  • Why don't you all read your user manuals if you have a question about it's features?? I love my phone.

  • the looks is just like a nokia 6500 slide... copied it ei?

  • Pretty sure Samsung were making slides and flips years before Nokia were saturating the market.

  • Pretty sure Samsung were making slides and flips years before Nokia were saturating the market.

  • A Soul for half the price, what more do you want. I would imagine that 'Mr Intelligent' is in a poor network area. I would advise that he takes his 'fone' to a phone shop and get it checked out.

  • wat is da memory like?

  • The batterey doesn't run out in an hour? My sister has this phone and she was on it all day and the batterey never run out.. seems your phone needs looking at. Anyone whos thinking of buying this phone BUY IT, the battery is good, camera is nice quality, and for the money it's good!! 10/10 samsung.

  • i am a highly intellegent individual and let me tell you something about this fone it has no flash the battery runs out in 1hour and its rubbish hit me back with your comments

  • Is it good to connect to windows vista, to transfer your pictures taken on this phone to your computer????

  • it makes me wet

  • I wouldn't take what VOdafone say on there website as gospel. They often get things wrong.

  • Sorry it has no flash

  • I'm afraid it doesn't have DAB, It only has FM. I only bought it cos some sites say it has DAB but it doesn't

  • Can anyone confirm if it definately has a DAB radio??? So you can listen to stations like Radio-5. Also if it has a DAB radio is it streamed over the net on the phone or received by an aerial in the headphones?

  • It says on this site that this phone has flash, yet mine doesn't seem to do it automatically when taking photos. anyone know if it really does have a flash and if so, how to switch it on?

  • Then why are vodaphone advertising that it does have voice dialing?

  • Samsung phones haven't had Voice dialing for years..

  • I was told this phone had voice activated dialling, so that i could call handsfree by just saying the persons name. But now i have got the phone it does not have it. Why?

  • very happy with mine - looks great and very user friendly, good quality sound.

  • The phone is good, it seems to have everything. Sound quality is good, battery life is decent. Im just not sure how to get the flash to work on the camera. Because the phone is loaded with so much equipment, it often lags but its not a major problem or anything UK readers: the phone is available now, but only at vodafone stores

  • yes

  • Does anyone know if it has passwords to get into your messages, pictures etc. much appreciated if you can help

  • Could someone please comment on whether the phone is actually any good, eg, battery life, sound quality, etc. This would be more useful than just saying it's a copy. Thanks.

  • Heh u all overlooked it got dab radio built in!!

  • This phone is blatant 6500 Slide design rip-off. Shame on you Samsung. Look at the bottom 2 inches that are black plastic, & the top part. The big center D-pad, the 4 soft keys are arranged in the exact same way, the brushed stainless stell exterior, & the speaker even looks the same.

  • stupid people would say that this is a 6500 slide copy but PLEASE! the 6500 is a crappy phone that has no innovation

  • handset is now available on vodafone uk!!!!!

  • steel not good like samsung p960 and g800 and

  • i like

  • Yo, this device is HSDPA 3.6 Mbps

  • Has the same looks like U900.\but without the magical touch. Don't see much different. Opps!! THE MAGICAL TOUCH HAS A BETTER CAMERA ASWELL.

  • the camera may not be as good as the soul but it doesn't have an annoying touch navigator which is unnecessary! Also the interface is much better than the Nokia 6500.

  • UMTS 2100 is only 384kpbs -1.1mbps HSPDA 2100 is 1.8mbps - 7.2kbps

  • Could someone tell me what the differece in HSDPA2100 and UMTS2100 is? Tks

  • No.Looks like Soul (U900) without OLED d-pad.

  • look like nokia 6500....

  • *****Most Samsung Mobiles difficult to upload Java Applications and Games from PC to Phone. If u buy samsung mobiles u must be buy Samsung Java Uploader and Bluetooth Program ete...... it so crazy mobile.i hate samsung OS,Music player,Video player,Camera,Games,Contact or Phonebooke,Display Color ete.....i hate them.but i like samsung body style. believe me,ok?.because i'm a mobile phone seller about 10y ago.i alway check all brand & all model of mobile phone every day. sorry for my english.

  • it might be a nokia 6500 copy but it is better

  • i love it

  • nokia 6500 slide copy!!!

  • a budget soul 3.2mp cam

  • Its a nice phone. But its almost identical to the U900 Soul. Just scalled down a little bit.

  • I like the look of this phone, its almost the same as the Soul though, a bit of a copy!

  • Another exclusive only for Vodafone...

  • looks like nokia 6500s

  • it might look like u900 but it has the camera only 3.15. even though i say thet u900 its much more sexy looking then samsung steel

  • U900 meets 6500 Slide

  • Looks like the U900 to me....
