  • I have got it today and it's a very good fone... I like so much keep up the good work Samsung :D

  • Really great phone, and even for a touch have no problem to send sms because it is very sensitive.

  • graet phone

  • can anyone tell me the battery backup in 2G network...

  • Thanks so much! That is really crucial information.Even I was worried about talk time.9 Hrs with 2G is pretty good.

  • Had a craze for touch screen phones and thought what better than a 3G, wifi touchscreen cheap branded phone in this age. Though the features provided by this phone are one of the best, looking at the price in market, I had mixed feelings about the same. Well the best thing about this phone is that you get 3g (coming soon in India), wifi, decent mp3player, basic video player, good internet explorer and pc connectivity. Some things which i would have wished for in this phone was: 1. Copy paste feature (I had a 4 yr old sony ericsson phone which provided this feature to me!) 2. Playlist creation from folder structure or from PC media manager is not possible. You have to select songs by albums,genres etc on phone to create playlist or scroll through your 8gb/16gb of songs to select your playlist song on touch screen phone! :( 3. Continuous scrolling feature is not theree in this phone, you keep scrolling either through finger or volume key (very uncomfortable if the list is large!) 5. Phone auto-locking during calls make it a bit frustrating to communicate with Interactive voice response numbers as the phone gets locked at very short duration and by the time you unlock the phone, the time limit is crossed! Summary: Now I know why the cost is less :)

  • please god sake any one know where is equilizer please let me know i cant FIND ? HELP

  • yea it has.. collins

  • Yup.. n a gud 1 at that...very user friendly

  • I wanted a touch screen phone but could not afford an I Phone as clearly almost nothing comes close to it when it comes to touch... I had a budget constraint of 10K ... and did not want to buy a Nokia (hv never been a fan of this brand)...the only option and a real good 1 at that is this phone, the touch is excellent the music play loud n clear the camera is pretty decent, download the opera mini for browsing and u have ur horizontal keyboard as well... I think its a steal for the price it is available....check it out urself

  • I have recently tried to look for this phone! But I cant seem to find it anywhere? Why is this? Someone please help me! I really want this phone but its just no where to be seen?

  • Hello everyone, Do this phone has a dictionary inside? Thanks a lot

  • I want know battery back up since it says 3hr. is it for both 2G & 3 G

  • If you write sms a lot then the Corby pro would be a better choice.

  • which is better lindy or corby pro? coz im asking one as a grad gift and idk which one to get. >.

  • Which is better, the Samsung Lindy or the CorbyPro? I like the Qwerty on the CorbyPro but it terms of weight it really does take a toll. I like the Lindy for its weight and that its so cheap yet the connectivity options are aplentiful... In my country (Singapore) the Lindy sells for $48 with a 2 year contract and the CorbyPro at $98 with a 2 year contract (I think it's more expensive cause of its Qwerty.) Please help!!!

  • friends please let me know where i s equaliser is located in lindy please reply

  • It was named Lindy, but it has been renamed to Samsung Corby 3G in India Model number remains the same.

  • Ya thats what I am looking for now, another thing which bothered me about Lindy was its battery backup. I understand its because of 3G. But even Corby Pro has 3G and its backup is better than Lindy. Atleast this is what I have heard. :)

  • what the hell kinda nbame is lindy? its disgusting

  • i really want to have this phone.. it's cheap and yet you'll get a worthy and stylish phone. im really interested in purchasing this phone..i hope i have this before my birthday on April! ^^ weepee!

  • well I don't know about you but qwerty on a capacitive 2,8 incher doesn't give me the idea of ''easy typing'' :P If you need a lindy that could text you should look at the samsung Corby PRO ... it has the same functionality and ads a full qwerty slide out keyboard.

  • Ease of use, and also I can make use of both my hand while typing with a qwerty, that will help me type fast. This is my opinion, don't know about others.

  • why do you and many others need a 'qwerty' keyboard?

  • Samsung lindy is called " Samsung corby 3g " in India. the phone main no is M5650 ...

  • samsung in this competition market showindg good performance and being a samsung promoter i use to enjoy that very much but unsatisfied only in riceiving salary very much delayed.............................. regards,

  • phone looking awsome and worthy for less then 10k,

  • Sory dear. I dnt knw much abt lindy,bt nw thinking abt it as my 2nd handset wid my n86.i hv TRANSFORMER2,VANHELLSIN,300,KAMINEY,SHOLEY,TIME MACHINE,PAA,A WEDNESDAY,PLANET OF APES..(avi format)in my n86 n they run smoothly.they can b played in DivXPlayer or smart movie.bt as per my knowladge these softwares r only compatible with Symbian S60 mobiles..by d way i lv d lindy also due to its luk n capacitive touch screen n planning to buy.hv a gud day guys...

  • Hi I live in Portugal And I have a Lindy. I'm 100% satisfied. The relation quality/price its great. It costs here 150�. The design is great and one of the great features (for me) it's the wi-fi. It also has lots of "widgets" (facebook, picasa, myspace, twitter, lastfm, etc..) I was thinking of Nokia 5530, but for now I will be with Lindy (GT-M5650)

  • this phone is available at 8700 rs only in hyderabad at sindhi colony sec,,bad xlnt phone

  • Hello everyone :) I am thinking of purchasing a new phone and as far as I can see the Lindy could be the ideal one for me. But I have some uncertainties about some of the phone features that coult be a deal braker for me and I hope that someone here can reply in my help :) 1 Can you put a full movie on the phone? If so how does it play? (smooth,laggy etc.) I read in the review that u can only put QVGA clips up but if they play well then it wouldn't be any problem ^^ 2 How is the alphanumeric on screen keypad? 3 How doae the phone behave in the area of responcevness,graphics etc.? Thx in advance for the one(s) that will reply :)

  • which phone is samsung corby 3G ?

  • No I don't have any idea, I dropped the idea of buying it immediately I came to know it didn't had a qwerty keyboard

  • samsung m5650 is grt phone in this budget but disadvantage is flash & gps is not their.but in 10k budget the features are outstanding go for it...thumps up.

  • supper mobil 3g net brous speed good

  • any idea of talkime? in 2g and 3g

  • I think CorbyPRO is better than this one. I have pro, and I'm lovin' every part of it.:D

  • Ok, I just went to the Samsung showroom today. Yes the phone has launched in Delhi s Samsung Corby 3G But I was a little disappointed, it doesn't have QWERTY keyboard.

  • Thanks, will search the markets today.

  • u can check www.univercell.in site and u see the phone and online purchase also avaiable

  • Hey are you sure that this phone is in market now. Does it have the same Model M5650 I am in Delhi and I called Customer care and they seem to have no knowledge about this phone.

  • hi, i am from indonesia, and cant hardly wait for this phone to be launch here..

  • For those people out there wondering whether to get one of Nokia's budget touchscreens like the 5530 or 5230 or the Lindy, I'd suggest you get the Lindy. In this case I'm usinthe 5530 for comparison. Basically you get an ALMOST identical spec sheet ( I'm guessing most of you potential buyers can live with the lower-res screen and the smaller screen size) for Almost half the price. That there is a deal to die for. And if you think the symbian s60 platform is godly, I'm telling you, it sucks. I tested out the symbian on my friends n97, and I can't even describe to you guys how user-unfriendly and stale the UI was. Plus, symbian is prone to lots of glitches. I had the e52 and the 5630 previously, and they both died on me for a million different reasons I wouldn't bother posting here. So my advice is get the Lindy. But if you still insist on getting a nokia s60, I'd say get the 5630. It's got almost the same specs sheet but it isn't touchscreen. Which is actually good. Touchscreens are quite un-reliable sometimes and s60 on a touchscreen simply doesn't blend well.

  • hi, this phone is available in chennai, india. as corby 3g, around 10k. can any one tell what is the talk time in 2g mode?(practically ). otherwise it is possible to change higher capacity samsung battery in same place?

  • Hi guys.

  • More likely easy handset to have but it does not have GPS.

  • s.e. is the best . there audio quality is awesome specialy through headset . and there cybershot cameras rock n roll . only reason tht they are lagging behind in market is tht they dnt want to knw wts the updated demand of the customers and market. e.g. most popular phones today are touchscreen like nokia 5800 or 5530 , lg cookie . samsung star . in other words these are phones of upper or lower middle range with large displays , stereo speakers ,camera with flash and preferably operating on symbian platform . sony dnt have a single phone in these features or price range . sony likes to give high price tags to good looking phones . they should make younger siblings of their large phones like we are hearing about x10 mini called robyn. they can also make aino mini comprising of same or little smal lets say 2.8 inch display with 3 mp camera . stereo speakers . divx xvid support . pdf . they can cut off wifi and 8mp to lower price tag and may be reduce display to 2.8 inch and resolution to qvga .also sony keep doing this to themselves by making good looking phones in midrange like w980 w595 but dropping camera flash and little larger displays and may be document viewer . in short sony ericsson should only knw wts hit in the market or wt costumers want .

  • significant other or not.....just look at the battery life and talk time.....

  • Can any one tell me that Head phone quality is better then sonyericsson or not. and phone speaker loud or not

  • hi..this phnoe is not compare 5530.because 5530s60 unlimited contct & messanging etc.

  • Battery life sucks

  • i have this phone already and its good...

  • its really nice

  • one word. amazing

  • The phone is good in terms of shape and features except the battery. As the phone has 2.8 inch screen along with the power hungry feature WiFI, the battery is not sufficient. It should had 1200 mAh battery at least.

  • great phone, i would love to have phone, this phone is sleek i think so, it has wi-fi and 3G for video call..it has dedicated player keys although the review said that you will it is only usable on the stanby mode but over all this phone is very good and not so very expensive phone which offer good experience and specs..

  • This time the battery is not acceptable! no not for me! negative!!!

  • battery life sucks

  • I really dont know which one is better!! Lindy is more beautiful but 5530 has more features!!! which one do you prefer???

  • i have Nokia 5530 XpressMusic. Is it worth changing it for Samsung Lindy? any opinions?

  • why gsmarena dosent put a full review of Lindy??? Is the sound quality as high as 5800???

  • Is the screen CAPACITIVE or RESISTIVE? Please confirm. Other sites say its resistive but GSMarena says its capacitive. Thanks!

  • Please let me know when is this phone going to launch in India.I want to buy this phone, please let me know at what price will it be in India.

  • this is one of samsung's M series (music phone), so I bet it has a great sound...

  • its 13k

  • This phone have accelerometer sensor?

  • yes, i want know the price too ( price in sg & ind ) this phone can 3G & wifi, correct and corby style, i hope the price not expensive :P

  • wats its price?

  • Look much better than original Corby in real life. Ten times more luxury.

  • hey2 bro what's up i am fro indonesia too i am from palembang u know i can wait too long to see the true samsung m5650 i love this phone

  • hey man sony ericsson is the first who used dedicated music keys and u think nokia is the best i think you are wrong listen wy friend is use nokia 5800 em he droped it once and the touchscreen is broken and you say nokia is the best hahahahaha........ i dont think so

  • can someone tell me when this phone is arrived at indonesia i wont to buy it this phone is preety good i like it

  • please tell me the price this phone

  • hey are you forget sony ericsson nokia is the worst phone in this world. my friend use nokia 5800 he drop it once and the touchscreen is broke is that you call nokia is the best i dont think so

  • Does this phone have a virtual qwerty keyboard or its like samsung Corby???

  • thanks god i found lindy....actually i wanna buy corby. but, once i know lindy i change my mind. i think lindy is better one...

  • thanks for your helpful advice. i text a lot, i'll keep that in mind the next time i buy a touchscreen phone.

  • hi gsmarena, please review this phone for sound quality test. Also does this phone support 3rd party softwares and applications?

  • It has a virtual qwerty.

  • No,it doesn't

  • does it have qwerty for text like the star?

  • Sorry for the wrong spelling just saw it before sending comment.

  • I tought it would be better for me to share my opinion. I work in a retail shop and get to try all the phones. This is a fine phone, it has all the things one should expect nowadays. I wanted a 3G phone with video call camera and wi-fi, and this one sounded the best choise at a lower cost. But there's a catch. I didn't bought it because i'm a heavy sms user and the touch screen response is incredibly bad. It takes ages to write a text in this phone, it keeps assuming other keys on the virtual keyboard even tough you hit the right ones. If you are thinking on buying one try to write a text on it before you purchase. Just tought i sould let you this advice...

  • as far as I know capacitive works with changing the electric field, so you just need to "slighty" touch the screen with your fingers. iphone uses capacitive - thats why everyone think it's great. resistive works via "physical pressure" so you need to touch a little bit "harder". but you can use everything to touch - finger, nails, stylus-pen (capacitive = only fingers). most winmo phones use resitive. in reality both work very well - it's just a little different.

  • lindy should be red.fast,sexy,elegant,lustfull,and allvays hungry for more,in along black dress,ready to bite your neck and leave you for dead whit a morronic smile on your pale face.Lindy should be like BLOOD RAYNE.

  • hi can anyone tell me what is the difference between resistive touchscreen and capacitive one (in simple terms) thank you very much

  • if the touchscreen its really capacitive then its really good

  • Capacitive or resistive?? If it is capacitive, for 149� (really??) this is a good phone, very good I think.

  • It should be resistive touchscreen and not capacitive!

  • Bravo Bravo Bravo Samsung

  • who told you that nokia is first one to have a dedicated music key/button did you forget w series of sony ericsson?

  • samsung touch phones are much better than nokia ones

  • No Qwerty = No Buy. End of story. Does not matter how big screen is.

  • no originality Sam! Nokia is the 1st one to put dedicated music keys. anyway 5530 is far away better than Lindy! the screen sucks.

  • The reason why this phone doesn't have QWERTY Keyboard because the screen is capacitive.... it's hard to type with QWERTY keyboard on 2.8 inch screen with capacitive screens.... :( but, overall it's quite good :)

  • It doesnt have a Qwuerty keyboard???

  • talktime just 3hrs???????????????????

  • The Screen technology are CAPASITIVE or RESISTIVE???, if this phone using capacitive , this can be pretty cool, like i-phone, LG km 900 or nokia X6, any clue about this guy???

  • corby with wifi

  • when will this be available in the Philippines? I went to few Samsung stores but the sales person there doesn't even know this phone.. (sigh)... hmmm... which is better when it comes to lcd sensitivity? samsung wifi or samsung lindy?

  • I don't agree with that. To think just because these phones are affordable they come with design or material faults is not right. Now-a-days its fairly cheap to manufacture touchscreens if you can increase its sale/use.

  • touchscreens are all fragile n these type of phones dont last long..

  • i jst love it i gifted this phone my grlfrinand

  • hate this type of touchscreen...its not good

  • just got the phone. the phone sucks to the core. poor touch response:(

  • yeah it looks nice.but why keep knocking budget mobiles. great for students,teens and so on.but wheres the the hi tech mobiles. when i go to upgrade i dont want the choice of 2 or 3 meg cam so 2005. i want 8/12 or more,wifi, and so on. please samsung bring M8920/W880 to the uk.now thats worth it wait in gold.

  • Who are you asking man??? GSMArena??? I don't think they can hear you

  • go make your own cell phone

  • SAMSUNG get a clue improving the camera and changing the name of a genio touch wont boost ur sales get another quality handset out like the omnia 2!!

  • Secondary Front Cam :(( yes or No)) Video call is a 3G network feature that allows two callers to talk to each other while at the same time viewing live video form each other's phone. To make a video call, both users should have 3G phones which support this feature and they both need to be in range of a 3G network. Replay (( YES OR NO ))

  • if this lindy will have a video confrence connection?

  • Anyone here knows when will this phone be release in the Philippines?

  • dubai88788 YES OR NO email me all Replay me

  • Face Front cam VGA video-call camera?(yes or or no)Secondary Video Call:((YES OR NO )) Replay

  • worst phone in india

  • Shown on this Website The Lindy has a 3.5mm Socket and a vga videocall camera

  • Also Sony Ericsson R300 Radio Browser WAP 2.0/xHTML Radio Stereo AM/FM radio with RDS; broadcast recording Games Yes + downloadable Colors Antique Copper, Steel Black GPS No Java Yes, MIDP 2.0 check the site

  • SE R306 Browser WAP 2.0/xHTML Radio Stereo AM/FM radio with RDS; broadcast recording Games Yes + downloadable Colors Coffee Black, Champagne White GPS No Java Yes, MIDP 2.0 check the site

  • AM = Amplitude Modulation and FM means Frequency Modulation. The difference is just, the technology of broadcast. FM is more clear then AM transmission.

  • Do this phone have fashion jacket like those other corby?

  • FM stands for frequency module, AM stands for Amplitude module. AM transmissions are not popular because they are affected by static and interference because of lightning and other sources of radio emissions on the same frequency. An FM signal is not subject to static and interference in the same way as AM signals. The most popular radio station are FM because of above problem and also because FM tech renders superior sound quality. Don't worry, first check what radio service station are available in you city and how do they broadcast their radio. AM or FM. The one that you want to listen to. BTW there are no mobile phone in my knowledge that support AM reciever.

  • plz help me out here, what is a diferent between fm radio and am radio?

  • nice phone!!!

  • I like balck colour phones.

  • Next is what? Cindy?

  • remember f480? 5mp, qvga 30fps video record, 3.5g i'm afraid this one have the same flaws too or worse - low res qvga 15fps video record - can't play mpeg4 video format at vga res - oh yeah, by the way touchscreen games is so boring...

  • Wrong specification...this has secondary camera

  • 1000 contacts memory and probably only 30 last dialled, received and missed call list. These are limitations of a non smart phone. 2.8 inch QVGA (240x320 pixels)1990s touch screen. But ofcourse its capacitive. Convincing? And no GPS. Just a convincing Wi-Fi receiver. No secondary video call camera. That means no video calling. The 3G will be limited to downloads. Ofcourse you also have that convincing Wi-Fi. Seems like its not convincing enough. Still far behind Nokia 5230. That phone has larger and far better quality touch screen with kinetic scrolling. Amazing processor. And Symbian S60 5th edition OS. Ofcourse Nokia 5230 doesn't has Wi-Fi but it has GPS with Nokia Maps. So make your decision : Wi-Fi, for browsing internet OR GPS, for travel directions that is network independent. Capacitive QVGA 2.8" screen OR a not-so-bad resistive 3.2" 640x360 touch screen with 16:9 aspect ratio and kinetic scrolling. Non smart phone OR a symbian S60 smart phone with an amazing processor. Average battery (960 mAh) with average battery life OR far better battery (1320 mAh) with obviously better battery life. With Wi-Fi its not gonna come cheap. Probably same as Nokia 5230. In the camera dept, Samsung M5650 Lindy does fair better with a 3.15 Mpx camera against Nokia 5230's 2 MPx but this is another reason why it won't be cheap. And not to mention Nokia 5230 also has a 3.5 mm audio jack. Make your choice. Are you convinced? .

  • ALL world People deaf want video calling important Secondary ???Why No Secondary ????????? you right WiFi good??? what happiness No Secondary video calling

  • Why you mad No Video call ?????? i want Video call second cam front

  • Oh god, the mid-area for touch screen phone is sooooooooooooooo HOT now!!! waiting for a cheaper one =))

  • Nokia 5230 u r dead before u r born.Here only lives SAMSUNG 5650

  • Would be best if had S60 OS like i450

  • to =vol= Regarding your serch for phoes with am stations, try searching on the ericssons lineup. R stands for Radio FYI. This phone is definitely something. Corby price, Wifi, 3g plus dedicated music buttons. Winner

  • Verry good, trough ... 3.5 mm jack and an flash 4 the camera would be good.... Also the battery could use an upgrade.. S5230 stays one week in standby with medium ussage.. and it says it stays 700, but this, that says it stays only 300... 3 days perhaps

  • LG has already introduced this concept in its KM330 model. Just check out the spec if you want to. It's got both FM and Am receiver.

  • It will be better if keypad is laid out like that of a calculator for fast/easy input, as in the numeric pad of the computer keyboard. (7-8-9 keys at the top and 1-2-3 at the bottom) It will be possible to configure in a touchscreen, i think. Is there any way we can get it done, or by making manufacturers aware of good suggestions/ideas?

  • Nice feature nice design this phone is succesor of corby, right?

  • no gps :/

  • is there any cellphone out there that has a am radio station? its always fm station are only available in all brands. i like to have a am radio station. i like to hear more on news. guys all brands of cellphone pls invent this, to be unique to others. this is one thing to add your marketing strategies

  • corby with wifi like everyone else said?

  • wow. nice phone ^^

  • A better battery will be a nice upgrade to this one :)

  • It's already on the market, by the Portuguese operator TMN, It cames with wifi, 3g videocall and excluive keys for mp3 player. It's an very affordable device with nice features for only 149,90�. It's very very similar in the design with the Samsung Corby, but it's called Samsung Lindy M5650. For more info go to the official site of TMN (it's in portuguese) www.tmn.pt

  • corby ........

  • An upgrade of the Corby I would say.
