  • my phones speaker's print out was missing from board. i want to repair my phone. anybody give me an answer???????????????pls

  • i have this phone for almost 2 years now and it works perfectly, sometimes the screen blocks/freezes but all i have to do is restart it and it doesn't happen often so it's no biggie. i never had a problem, never had any display problems, slider or any other kind all i have to say it's that it's not made for shock resistance (you may end up with 2 phones instead of one)and that the micro sd card is under the battery, near you sim phone card so i strongly recommend using a data cable since getting the memory card out very often might damage not only the card itself but the phone 2

  • The slider display was gone and only when i connect it to charger only keypad lights lit but the slide part is blank.so i tell not to buy this phone

  • I've been using it for more than a year... and it hasn't given up on me since. The sound quality is good. Internet connection is slow because it's not 3G. Camera quality is decent. I've never had any flex problems. For its price, it's a very good phone.

U can change settings to Mobile phone 320 x 240 while converting files and this works fine on Samsung S3500. I have 8 GB Card in my Samsung S3500 and i have almost 20 Movies and around 200 songs with pictures and other details on Memory Card. It still have space to store more data. Due to 16 Million colours on S3500 the clarity is awesome. While travelling i see aleast 2 Movies on my way.... battery last long if you use earphones. Enjoy S3500.

  • >This phone is quite good comparatively with other brands like sony ericcson and LG(i do not want to compare it with nokia) within the range. >It has good display but do not persist a good wide viewing angle. >Audio output is good. >Phone recognizes the complete number when user dials a part of number, which other brands lack. >We can add new themes only by creating rather than downloading themes from internet. >Bad battery talk time. >Not that user friendly as phone has navigation problem in browsing external memory. You just cant switch from one song to another song or image to image with some short cut key, rather user need to get back to the list and view/listen. >Blue tooth transfer/receive is slow. >Can add play list to overcome the above problem with songs but images or wallpapers no chance. >While switching a song with in a users play-list is very slow while compared to All-tracks option. >Cannot use mp3 songs as ring-tones and images as wallpapers unless and until they are copied on a phone memory. >very bad thing about this phone is speed dial gets emptied whenever we reinsert the Sim.

  • I have got the phone in aug 2009.....I got many problems with in waranty period..inspite of my visits to customer care,they didn't check out my phone.they asked to give the serial number

  • I had bought this phone in June 2009. It was working perfectly except for a small problem. Sometimes it did not recognise the memory card. I had to switch off the phone and then switch it on to make it recognise the memory card. In July 2009, the keys stopped working. I had to take it to the Samsung authorised centre in Anna Nagar, Chennai. They traced it to the FPCB. I believe it stands for front panel circuit board. They were able to replace it in 2 days. Now it is working fine. However, while the FPCB replacement cost was Rs.135, the service charges were Rs.250 plus taxes. I wish samsung considered reducing the service charges to atleast Rs.150.

  • where this phone is discontinued, its still in the market and running well, i am also planning to buy it, i think its a good phone little bulky but due to its large lcd good mp3 output and reasonable cost we can defenately go for it. Javed (cellphone technician)

  • my personal experience wow..really a good handset with fine features in d range of 4k. main advantages. awesome clear large display better camera n gud recording self theme creator,dialing display & font mobile tracker & fake call g8 sound clarity with equalizer short cut toolbars in home screen privacy lock disadvantages poor battery.. no screensaver.. no 5 way navigation for wallpaers n photos in memory card except in phone memory... wallpapers n photos cannot be viewd in full screen in memory card.we hav to zoom in.but it is not so in case of phone memory... for setting wallpapers/photos from memory card in homesreen it gets automatically copied to phone memory n den sets in. rest features r ok.... apart from d 1st disadvantages rest can be compromised . mobile companies doesn't offer all features in a handset as dey hav got different products in same line...1 enters another exits.. so we hav to be satisfied witin it... conclusion a gr8 phone with better features!!!!8.5/1o explore it.....

  • hangs a lot...grrr...

  • hangs a lot...grrr...

  • is this handset worth 5K, i think its a cheap gimmick

  • its a supper handset.....i really enjoying...

  • This ia a superb phone there are many ways in which you can get every feature like java applications, and many more just say what you want in this phone.

  • Its a good phone in all aspects

  • Cheap phones comes cheap features. thats how it is. However, this phone is far more better than my previously-owned inexpensive phones, be they NOKIA or ERICSSON. In short, it is worth the money i paid. Lesson: If you want to have a mobile phone that will meet your expectations, secure for high-end and expensive ones.

  • This is very very bad phone with numerous problems. Phone memory dosn't support the data on phone, atomatic switch off, no good battery back up. So this is my humble request don't buy this phone.

  • to convert jar to jad file , download jad maker from the net and connect ur phone to pc through pc suite .......next thing is just to click and drag the JAR files less than 500

  • This model does not support hold call....which is a major drawback.....if sum1 knoz abt dat option nd regdn internet can reply....

  • the looks is great,,, the screen is clear. But it hangs frequently,,, and the battery wont last, and its difficult to install java, Nice phone but lack of features.

  • It is a gud phone in which we can record songs frm radio with gud sound quality

  • the battery only last for less than 2 days... and it can't play some music and video..

  • this is one the waste phone that i have ever seen . there r many problem with this phone like i will hanged every time when ur card was full. and pls dont purchase samsung mobile because there the center r so bad in there service this is very poor phone it will hanged so much plss dont purchase this phone plss this is my request to all peoples my e mail ID is [email protected]

  • ya dats true i m also having same prob their is prob of sliding also else mobile is gud in this range

  • this handset is quietly nice...i really love its features...I just got my phone through line subscription...this is one of the best phone i've ever had...but unfortumately I just lost it for about 2 weeks already...the resolution of the camera is really good,and the sounds is clear when your doing some sounds triping over your music saves within.. though the battery dont usualy stays longer...I am planning to buy a new handset of this model again..

  • this handset is just name sake and the format of vedios is only mp4.. u cant use any other format.. foul set!

  • Its hang on or switches off only if the your sim is defective or your sim contains virus. so if it is hanging many times, please change the sim

  • The battery backup of this fone is really bad...also the memory is said to be upto 8gb expandable but evn a 4 gb memory card dsnt work...it keeps hanging...n then switches off...

  • good look.but battry backup is an extreme problem for this phone.i recomand to every one to not to buy this handset.

  • Its too good handset..... but battery back up is also too poor...

  • this set is very gud bt my only cmplaint is with battery back up. it is very low

  • As i am using the handset, i found the camera is quite good but the battery backup is very slow as it required charging at frequent gaps.

  • I am using this phone and seriously the camera of the phone is very amazing..but the only major problem is its battery that require charging at frequent gaps.

  • i love its design.. its sleek.. also.. its camera is better than any othr cellphone in its class.. BUT.. the battery is so bad.. so so so so bad.. all i ever do is charge.. Samsung.. seriously.. uve got major battery issues.. ALSO.. java apps dont work.. apparently uve got to convert it to jad or something.. thats fine, Just that ive no idea what that is or how is it that you convert.. so.. samsung.. i'm disappointed.. Isnt java something that evry othr fone has?? I REGRET BUYIN THIS FONE.. anyway.. How is it that you do this jad thing again??

  • The only solution is to send the file to your phone memory rather than memory card and then install..... or send to memory card using bluetooth...... the problem occurs because JAD files tend to be file directory sensitive...... they change their target directiry when sent through bluetooth or when run from phone memory........ i dont guarantee this to work always,,,,,,, but it worked with me........

  • Everytime I install around ten odd java applications using JAR+JAD, the phone starts hanging while installing further java applications every single time.... I deleted all the applications i had installed thinking the problem might be available space but then even deleting did not help....... now i couldnt even install applications which had installed perfectly earlier........ i tried samsung funclub applications but even they did not work........ i gave my phone to a service centre..... they took it for more than a week...... wiped of all phone memory.... installed back mobile software and gave it back...... then the same problem occured again..... it installed a first few applications nd then it did not install any further application....... i am fed up...... someone please help.........

  • I would agree on the previous posts that the phone is very elegant looking and is worth its price. Samsung did it again.

  • according to me its worth for its cost still i dont find any difficulty it in. its a cool phone really. an advanced sliding technology is used in it. nice camera clarity & sound clarity too.

  • yes it is possible.....my frnd has a samsung phone n he can see everything in othrs phone if d bluetooth is connected.....n without a hacker...

  • u can charge using data cable... just connect it to computer using data cable..

  • hello every one... i purchased a samsung s3500 some days back.. right from that time the problem is, it fails to connect a call immediately after attending or making a call... and messages also.. while i try to forward a msg to some of my friends, first recepent receives a msg quickly... but for next recipents message sending will be failed... no doubt NOKIA IS BEST AND USER FRIENDLY.

  • average phone(3.6/5)

  • People are never satisfied... Its a great phone for wat u pay, ok, its not the best phone in the world but it isnt the worst! im impressed, its charmy, very elegant and with great features too, and sounds better than the corby. if u want a basic phone i recomend this, but as i said people are never satisfied!

  • s3500 has more worth for money... here some one asked that is it possible to access friend's phone without password...??? its absolutely not possible..

  • now i understand why samsung & nokia mobile prices is to lower than sonyericsson coz no one compaired with sony ericsson phone its father of all mobiles

  • i cursing myself for buying this worst phone. its battery backup is too low. its screen resolution is worst than nokia 2700 or other nokia phones, we couldn't make calls silence. we couldn't c pic in memory card by navigating key. we couldn't install java application more than 500kb we couldn't c giff images more than 100 kb i would suggest all the frnds and guys please buy nokia 2700 or nokia 6303

  • 3500 is worst phone that i ever had, we couldnt see continously memory card, images, or full size, there is no navigation option. its battery back is too cheap. its sound clearity is lower than nokia 5130 or 5310 we can not install java application without converting them into jad, also we couldnt use more than 500kb applications we couldnt c giff images more than 100 kb we couldnt c whole webpage of like orkut yahoo in its browser, or in opera , its shows only html. we couldnt make incoming call silence like in nokia i bought this phone 12 dec 2009 i want to sell this phone in 4500 if anyone intrested pls call me 9717795796 i would suggest nokia 6303 classis

  • i have this phone for a week now and i found out the ff: A. Pros Nice form factor solid design good feel to the hands. Music player is good the sound is not that bad. Bluetooth headset can be used since its support a2dp Themes can be created to suit the taste of the user. Up to 8 Gigs extra micro sd. Fake call can be useful sometimes. Camera has panorama mode. B. Cons Memory card not hot swappable its still at the back of battery Battery life of 800mah sucks. just after i pull the plug from charging its already lost 1 bar. If you are in a budget. this is your phone.

  • Alas,finally got this set...! The phone is superb in terms of its usage n design..But still got some unsolvable questions... 1. How to transfer the songs,images etc from pc to mobile thru usb cable? I've tried installing the driver n all. But still the phone is not being detected by the pc.. 2. Can't v do any operation when the slider is closed? Coz, when the slider is closed v need to open n then only access it. Aren't there any such way to avoid always opening the slider...? 3. How to avoid the kind of tone which comes every time when we send the msg'es n when we check the balance? 4. When the downloaded tones are assigned to msg'es it plays twice are thrice but that's not the case with default ringtone..How to avoid this? Apart from these minute issues the phone is superb especially the theme creator option. Its a fun to use. Guys pls help me out to solve this minute glitches..Thank you..

  • All those phones u mentioned just dont match nokia n-series, technically. I av been using nokia n78 for more than 6months now, its just wonderful. I av friends dat use d S3500 & u should c d screen after a year, it would av been better if it came with a stylus pen..damn, u do everything wif ur fingers. I think d 6303 is fair too but i'd go for an n-series..anyone from n73 upwards is good.

  • Its an awesome fone!! u cant get anything better dan dis in such a price range in any case..... * i m loving it*

  • Very Nice Performance phone. I like it.

  • Ive purchased a sam s3500i two months back. I want to install a dictionary in my mobile . kindly give me an advice.

  • hi boss and anonymous i m agree with thasleem in some points samsung s3500 is behind than nokia for all ur question, there is only one answer..chk it out below!!!! 1. Songs, Pics, Videos etc. stored in Memory card can't be navigated thru left or right buttons. You have to come out of that pic/song etc and then again choosing the next. However, navigation to next stuff is possible if it is in phone memory. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 2. There is no option of full screen in Pics viewing. You can only zoom to make it big. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 3. No themes can be applied except defualt three which comes with phone. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 4. Almost all games are from EA Sports and are demo version. Nothing you can enjoy with it. If you click to play it is locked & says buy it to unlock. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 5. Battery suddenly wipes out and phone is off though you have charged it full just 5-6 hrs. before. (it happened 2 time within 2 months) ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ...

  • I just bought my S3500 cellphone (unblocked!). It's great, but I have 3 complaints: 1-USB driver won't install on my system (Win7 64 bits). Even the new PC Studio version from Samsung website. 2-Context keys (home screen) are "Shortcuts" (left) and "WAP" (right). Dude, I will never use WAP. How can I change this (I could not find a config)? 3-Earphone button only make calls. Is there a way to configure it to change music track/radio station (like my former Nokia)? Apart from that, it's an awesome phone! Thanks,

On the other hand, even a basic phone like the Nokia 2626 has unlimited text fields where you can store all this information.

"PROTECTION ON" bcoz of this protection on feature you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. main importance of this feature is that u can protect any of ur messages, videos, pics, songs etc from accidental deletion. it really makes the file management of s3500 best among the non smart fones no other fone apart from samsung have this feature. its really helpful take a case: 1) u accidently delete all ur sent messages @ once n then u remember there is one important mess along em.... but u knw if ur important mess is protected it wont b deleted even wen u press delete for all the messages. 2)if u have 400 messages or 500 wallpapers n u want to delete all except 20 or 30 important one. now even if like on others fone u have multiple deletion feature u hav to browse all the 500 wallpapers to save those bunch of wallpapers. but here in s3500 u can do the same or u can take advantage of this "protection feature". if u hav already protected ur important pics or messages jus go to delete "ALL" n press ok(dont think twice) no need to do any browsing n all ur 470 pics will b deleted n those 30 wud b remains undeleted. (there is still lot more advantage of this feature so pls read earlier comments to knw more) "Fm recording" n the best part is the audio quality of recorded clip is shockingly loud n crystal clear n can save unlimited no. of stations. "call recording" crystal clear call recording n the other person on call will not hear any annoying beep. "Fake Call function" this feature enables you to activate a bogus incoming call, so you can free yourself from awkward conversations or dodgy situations by pretending to take a call. For added authenticity, you can record your own or ur friends fake voice "call" that plays back when you answer. "Menu transition effect" if u seen latest aamir khan's samsung ad then u wud probably knw wat i m talking bout...wenever u press a button the screen slides from right to left....it looka awesome...u can also change ur transition effect. "MOBILE TRACKER 2.0" Mobile tracker automatically sends an SMS message to a pre-designated number alerting you when your phone�s SIM card is changed, increasing your chances of recovering a lost or stolen mobile phone. "SOS FUNCTION" in an emergency jus press either end of the volume key 4 times when the phone is closed. this will send the SOS message to ur selected recipients. if they call u back their call will be automatically connected. its definately a life saving feature. "Message alert repetition": it will alert u in evry 2 min if there is an unread mes on ur phone....u can put it off too. "keypad lights" automatically set according to day night usage or according to ur custom usage dont have to on or off it manually. have all the features which only a music phone possess....n music player is SHOCKINGLY LOUD & CRYSTAL CLEAR.. "Random Wallpaper Effect" very intresting feature...wenever u use ur mobile n came back to standby....it will welcome u with diffrent wallpapers of ur choice each time. for ex if u r using katrina kaif theme u can assign diffrent wallpaper of her so wenever u use phone u'll see her theme n wenever u came back to standby u'll see diffrent wallpaper of katrina each time(to know more read earlier reviews) "BLUETOOTH MESSAGING" (chat/sms through bluetooth FREE OF COST) 1st of all its free secondly its in chat form u can see the history n third u dont have to wait for send or receive as it does chatting instantly.... "smart dialling" its a great feature guyz if by any chance any one of u use a i phone u probably knw it Smart Dialing is when you press a number and a list comes up that corresponds the number with the letts. For example, number 6 has the letters "M, N, and O," so if you type 6 three times, it'll find "mom." Say you want to dial Carl, you'll press, 2275 moreover wenevr u dial any number like 98 now wen u dial the third number it will giv u all the options saved on ur phone book havin those 3 numbers or even unsaved one which is in ur dialled/received/missed/incoming sms/outgoin sms list u dont have to dial anymore jus 3 numbers for ex if u dial 987 all the numbers havin these three numbers like 9872345678, 9876767545 etc will b shown on the screen n to narrow the search add another number than it will show only those options havin those 4 numbers... its pretty cool "SMS ZOOM Function" cam cover: cam is not at the back of fone....it is inbetween the slide so slide act as a cam cover...protect lens from scratches, dust n all. can change DEFAULT MEMORY setting: u can change default memory settings of bluetooth, wap downloads, camera, camcorder, voice recorder, fm radio etc from phone mem to memory card. for ex: now when u transfer any file through bluetooth or click a pic, or record a radio clip they'll b directly stored in ur mem card. awesome image viewer: the image viewer itself adjust the pics n images according to its need irrespective of its SIZE n RESOLUTION. so u dont need to edit ur pic on pc in order to use it on ur phone. s3500 automatically process em no matter how oversized they are. jus transfer the pic to ph mem. Awesome file management: The functionality of the file browser is one of the best among non-smartphones. You can copy or move files - both one by one or in bulk, and you can create and delete new folders (save for the basic ones). Files can also be sent via Bluetooth one by one or multiple at once. Throughout the whole file manager, you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. The whole file navigation thingy is really quick with no lags whatsoever. apart from these there are a lot more features like "AUTO REPLY" , "night mode", cut copy paste in messaging....the list is endless.....we r still exploring..... s3500 is a "ALLROUNDER" phone cheers :p

  • Hey boss, i wanna buy this phone. Is it worth? I need a phone with good music quality, good camera, fm recording, changeable themes n decent gprs n edge capabilities. Should i go for it? Pls respond me immediately.........

  • bro read again i hav given u the best possible answer(solution). save ur pics on phone mem. n scroll em.

  • Thanx for the info bro.. I'll try it out when I get the phone...

  • why can't i scroll the pictures in the memory card? you did not answer my question..hehe

  • as i said earlier image viewer itself adjust the pics n images according to its need irrespective of its SIZE n RESOLUTION. so u dont need to edit ur pic on pc in order to use it on ur phone. s3500 automatically process em no matter how oversized they are. jus transfer the pic to phone memory. if the size n resolution is big jus transfer them to phone mem n not mem card n ur phone automatically adjust it according to its usage i myself tested a jpeg image of "8mb" size. yup but for gif u can use gif file upto 500kb but thats not a big deal coz most of the available animated wallpapers (approx 99%) are less than 500kb. check gif files available on mobile9.com.

  • hey kevin congrats for ur new purchase. yup bro indeed its a awesome phone jus try out all those unique features written here which make this superb phone even more great. yup usb connector is located in the multifunctional jack. bro as i said earlier if u find that hard then do one thing save ur videos, music, softwares n all other stuff in ur mem card n use ur phone mem only for ur pics. it has 45mb internal mem which i think is quite enough to save ur 200-300 pics. u knw bro i hav around 500 pics and wallpapers on my phone mem. offcourse u can use .gif animated files check these out:

  • hi sameera to add songs to ur playlist u dont need to go to ur mem card jus open ur music player n go to "all tracks" folder where u'll find all the songs saved on ur phone memory + mem card....choose watever u want to add n press option- add to playlist- choose whichever playlist u wanna add this song to n its done. by the way u have hell lot of other options too like u can go in "recently played" folder or "most played" folder or "artists" folder (where songs are divided according to diffrent artists) or "generes" folder (tracks divived into categories like bhangra, jazz, blues, bollywood, hindi etc) or "Albums" folder from here u can easily add the song of ur choice directly to ur existing playlist jus click the option button n then "add to playlist"....as simple as that.....

  • Hi all... I too faced a similar problem when I tried to set a screen saver on my uncle's phone. The resolution (320x240) and format (gif) was all right but the file was detected as unknown format with a ? inside a black circle. Is that normal or is there a limit to the file size that can be read? And I also faced a similar proble when I copied some wallpapers (1900X1200)that came with my Windows 7 onto the phone. Only some of the files could be read. Everything else is quite ok. Should I advice him to update the firmware? Will it make any difference? The GIF's that worked however looked very colourful and smooth in transitions just like a flashlite wallpaper.

  • is there no screensavers that can be used in this phone?

  • is it normal if the slide sounds whenever i get to slide it up??? please answer all of my questions... kevin,

  • can't i scroll the pictures in the memory card? i just have a hard time opening it one by one.. but it's still great!

  • its simple bro jus transfer em to ur ph mem.

  • I have S3500 N am not able to move on next Video while watching other videos. Every time i have to go back & then have to select the Videos. Gv proper solution. Or other player could be installed ??? suggest!!!

  • Then you can expect it to become twice as fast then... That would be real fast... Enjoy!!!

  • i dont think so bro afterall its "SAMSUNG".... ui speed is too great. as i said earlier i m using 4gb card n my fone speed is jus awesome. one of my friend is using 8gb on it n his fone too never lags. nywayz thanks for the comment.

  • Hi all.... Just got another suggestion that might make your phone a bit more faster. All phones tend to slow down when cards of capacities 4GB and above are used. It is not the phone fault but the card itself. So I suggest that you take out your memory card, back up all the necessary files and then format it using PC. It is better to use a card reader than the phone in mass storage as the latter is a bit more time consuming. In windows, right click on the disk and select format option. In the format menu, the card capacity is displayed. In that, select the file system as FAT32. And in the next column, assign the Default Allocation or Cluster size as 32KB (recommended for 4GB cards) and 64KB (recommended for 8GB cards). Remove the quick format tick and start formatting. I read that the larger the cluster size, the faster the card becomes. Since mp3's and videos are files larger than 32 or 64KB, larger cluster sizes will not cause a wastage of storage space.

  • bro i think u shud take it to the nearest service station coz i have this fone for the last 5 months n i never encounter ny problem like this. ui speed is awesome even i m using 4gb card n my mem card is almost full but my phone never ever lags, while i hav around 5 movies n more than 300 songs on my phone....the speed is too fast : ) cheers

  • bro battry backup is good. to provide u more info regarding bettry life i m jus copy pastin ma earlier review: "......there are two things i wann tell u here: first of all it has 5 bettery bars shown at the upper right end of the fone n wenever its 3 bars dissappears people thought that bettery is drained out but u knw friend its remaining two bars last for lot more than u expect.... they give u much more power than earlier three bars.... secondly bro u hav recently bought this phone... its brand new for u....its ur exploring phase goin on... u r using it more often than one can usually do. most of the time u'll b clickin it to get familier with its features @ this point of time ur bettery will drain fast coz u r using more of it now. so it will take some days wen u start using it moderately. i remember wen i bought this phone at least for a week i used it extensively .... i ws exploring all of its awesome functions....." ".....to increase its bettery life: -jus decrease the brightness of the phone -dont use the keypad light in day this is a very good feature...(n u dont have to keep ur keypad lights on n off everyday... u can jus set a time like from 5pm to 9am n it will off n on ur lights at the preset time everyday....try it) -use melody instead of vibration + melody -keep the keypad tone off etc -dont use animated wallpapers explore it u'll find lot more tips too this will help u in increasing ur bettery backup. good thing is u got "USB CHARGING" feature so jus connect it to ur PC while u r working n charge it...."

  • Hi all S3500 users... Please don't get offended by my intrusion. This phone supports Bluetooth File transfer profile right? So i'm sharing with you all a neat trick that I discovered on my LG phone. As this phone supports BT FTP profile, it should work equally as well on this phone too. With everyone's permission i'm posting it here for you. Today I just purchased a new BT dongle (Enter smallest BT dongle) with 2.0 support. Installed the drivers and all the software and started it. My phone was paired and after that, under the software options, I added my computer drive with all the mp3's stored in it on the shared FTP folder. Next on the phone, under all services, I selected file transfer service and then connected my PC. Walla.... Now I can access all the files and folders in my PC wirelessly and get whatever files I want from my PC remotely. It might seem like i'm a bit idle, but who cares when I can get the files I like on the other room without staring at the monitor all the time. And the BT transfer speeds are also in the range of 50-60KBps. You should try it out too.. might be a bit unorthodox but it is fun. BOSS and others might already know about this. Anyway kindly ignore if it doesn't interest you...

  • Guys this phone is amazing in its price range and features. I bought it a month ago and am still in the phase of exploring its features, and everyday I get surprised to see its new feature and on the top of that it has got the best looks and style in its segment. I do agree that its battery back up is not top class and wish it had more power considering the wide array of features encompassed in this phone. Overall its a wonderful phone to have for every mobile user.

  • Gentlemen, Please tell me: 1. Is there a video player that I can download in 3500 that allows me convinenent rew and FF. 2. This website mentions that this cell allows for voice dialing, I have not found this feature. Any clues pls.

  • mr.smart you r a faker

  • i use this mobile for viedeo call and successfuly done with MTNL

  • hi mohit the game was corrupted bro. i hav already said buddy not all the games and softwares are downloadable even from reputed sites like mobile9.com...many of 'em are already corrupted or have some kinda errors... go n CHECK the comments below the game, n u'll find other company phones like NOKIA ,SE, MOTO too cant install them.... thats why we call them third party "c*r*a*p"....not at all reliable.... another important reason for showing java error can b ur jadmaker. most of the time jadmaker is found to b faulty. so if ur jadmaker make jad files less than or more than 1 kb delete the jadmaker n install new one from any other site. its freeware so u have to jus google it. by the way i hav 40 games n mine are working absolutely great. i hav already posted many of em here.... try them also u'll surely like em. hope it help.

  • YES buddy it has call recording feature.

  • Hello and Hi to all!!!! BEWARE S3500 USERS OF THIS FAKER(THASLEEM) ========================================== He is saying that, I'm not a faker! Ok i'll prove it!! Comments of Thasleem are in Quotation mark and my comment about his fake comments!! 1) "High size or high resolution pictures are not opening." For me and other high resolution pictures are opening! For him it is not opening because he is not yet touched the phone! 2) "It cant open SWF, BMP and other formats pictures" My s3500 is opening BMP file format, but his mobile cant... funny joke! for swf, s3500 possess GIF file format!! 3) "It cant open *.txt file" ---> In cant find in manual that s3500 open *.txt file. did you find that tell me! Did you expect a smart phone for 5000! Now you will say s3500 does not opening *.txt file! then you say my s3500 does not supporting Windows 7! Then you came to conclusion that s3500 is worst mobile!! Even though, you can view *.txt file through third part softwares!!!! 4) "You cant edit the pictures taken"--- Did you edit and directly print through Printer..there is no attached printer in s3500. I dont think so! 5) "When u hear music for 2 hours and attend few calls, this phone will shutdown (poor battery)"--- i have posted my personal experience in this forum many days ago!! after that, no one saying battery is not so good! Battery is satisfactory and good! I hear more than 2 hours of music and use the regular moderate phone usage, even my profile is MELODY + VIBRATION!! 6) "Very very difficult to install JAR Files, it needs JAD File, even if you make JAD file and install the application, 95% application will not work"---- hey no body is quoted this comment before rather than you!! Basically S3500 is considered as multimedia phone, see this in samsung website! A multimedia phone doesnot support JAVA oriented file, how funny you are and how fake your comment is!! If you are ignorant please ask us, dont blame the phone for you ignorance!! Please see our earlier comments, how to install the JAVA games and apps in s3500! If you are having s3500 you will say this comment, buy you cant! 7) "When you are setting Wallpaper or Ringtone, it is moving to Phone Memory" ----- Nobody rather than you says this is an disadvantage!!!

I hate people who are giving false comments about s3500! 4)Finally, When we are defending them! Then cant control their emotion and say my mobile ***** is superior! 5)Then we post how s3500 is superior to his mobile!!! 6)After lots of insults, he stops his posting for some days! 7)Then they will come in another form! Hey Thasleem, we have seen many more guys like you! We are not hating you guys! By these guys, we are able to prove How s3500 is superior! Really you guys are helping in proving the superior s3500! You are the person who not ever know the real life of mobiles and not even touched s3500!How can i say this, because all our new users are very much satisfied by s3500 features(hell lot of features), But you are saying s3500 is a worst phone! ha ha haha ha!

We too come across those! Ya! Absolutely you can spent few more thousands to buy a mobile like s3500, but not better than s3500!! Those who are using this phone do not say that, s3500 is an ordinary phone! S3500 users, see his jealousy towards answering a question to prag!!

Oh sorry, how can you know that, you not even touched the s3500! By your early comments, the only true is you are using Nokia 6303!! After buying that mobile, you came to know that s3500 is much more better than that mobile in specs as well as look!! thats ok! But dont show your emotional outburst over here!! It is not your own forum!! Go to your respective forum and cry over there!!! CHEERS! S3500 making people jealousy!!! S3500 always rocks!!!!

  • Hi Bro, for all ur question, there is only one answer..chk it out below!!!! 1. Songs, Pics, Videos etc. stored in Memory card can't be navigated thru left or right buttons. You have to come out of that pic/song etc and then again choosing the next. However, navigation to next stuff is possible if it is in phone memory. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 2. There is no option of full screen in Pics viewing. You can only zoom to make it big. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 3. No themes can be applied except defualt three which comes with phone. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 4. Almost all games are from EA Sports and are demo version. Nothing you can enjoy with it. If you click to play it is locked & says buy it to unlock. ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ... 5. Battery suddenly wipes out and phone is off though you have charged it full just 5-6 hrs. before. (it happened 2 time within 2 months) ----> YES, U CANT DO ANYTHING FOR THAT ...

  • You may find new features day by day and promote this worst phone, but i am finiding worst features day by day. This phone is not at all application oriented.. u cant say, this phone is better than Nokia. With the same price or more than 2k price, best Nokia phones are available People planning for buying New Mobile: Go for Nokia 6303 (approx 1K higher than S3500 with lot more features) Dont go for s3500 phone.if u bought , u have to keep tracking on forums to resolve the problem in s3500 for funny problems. I liked the way reply post with all positve results with no specific reason. (i think the reply guy never used Nokia Phones :( ) Bro, Use Nokia Phones and feel the diffrence then try to reply!!!!

  • Dear Friends, I bought S3500 2 months back. I am overall satisfied with its performance and features. However, I have experienced below drawbacks in it. But I doubt if it really exists or it is becoz I don't know some facts. 1. Songs, Pics, Videos etc. stored in Memory card can't be navigated thru left or right buttons. You have to come out of that pic/song etc and then again choosing the next. However, navigation to next stuff is possible if it is in phone memory. 2. There is no option of full screen in Pics viewing. You can only zoom to make it big. 3. No themes can be applied except defualt three which comes with phone. 4. Almost all games are from EA Sports and are demo version. Nothing you can enjoy with it. If you click to play it is locked & says buy it to unlock. 5. Battery suddenly wipes out and phone is off though you have charged it full just 5-6 hrs. before. (it happened 2 time within 2 months) Guys, Pls share your experience on above 5 points. Thanks.

  • By reading your comments, i really laughed very much!! Thank you buddy for making me a laugh!!! Hi S3500 users,,, Our s3500 is much more superior Nokia, SE and LG mobiles of this price range! Even it can match ever more 2K mobile! This is common, we can make fun by this greedy people! FAKE COMMENTS about s3500: 1)"Very very difficult to install JAR Files, it needs JAD File, even if you make JAD file and install the application, 95% application will not work.".. By this comment, your are proving that you are not yet used S3500!! hey, i have about more than 38 games in my mobile!! All of them are installed easily and working well!! 2)"When you are setting Wallpaper or Ringtone, it is moving to Phone Memory"---- ha ha ha ha!!! For your fake comment, i just copied and pasted the previous comment! "....actually its a "positive" point bro...it keeps the copy of ringtones n wallpaper in phone memory automatically so that whenever u remove ur memory card ur ringtones, wallpapers etc wont change n remains same....if u set a wallpaper or a ringtone from ur mem card n if suppose u have set, say 8 or 10 diffrent ringtones to ur diffrent contacts so wenever u remove ur mem card it will changes to default n imagine u hav to assign those tones again!!!!!! so thats why to reduce ur labour it keeps a copy so that ur ringtones n wallpaper always remain exactly wat u hav set n never change NO MATTER if u remove ur mem card....." 3)S3500 automatically adjust the resolution when you set the wallpaper from phone memory!!Did you say it's a disadvantage!! ho ho funny or fake guy!!! 4)Hey use the middle key for coming back!!! It's simple!! Only S3500 know this, How do you know that?? Sorry!! ha ha haha!! 5)"No 3.5 mm jack" - Are you eating Bulls**t!! See our earlier comments to improve your innocence!! 6) Who said, we cant see high resolution Pics!! you are the hell man! I have trasferred about 5 mega pixel camera taken in my Digital camera, it is viewed AWESOME in S3500!! It rocks man!!! Just improve your knowledge!! 7) "It cant open SWF, BMP and other formats pictures." ha ha ha hah!!! It accepts BMP file format man!!! Who need SWF!! S3500 possess GIF file!! 8) Did you need a smart phone with document viewer, MS OFFICE 7 and all latest software at Rs.5000!!! You can too view it s3500, by using third party software!! Get a real life man!! 9)Some day before, i typed *#9998*228# and i come to know that it has 26 percent of battery remaining!!! In main screen it shows 2 bars... At that time power cut... In our city when current goes off it will come after 2 hours.. I bored and played my favourite songs in my mobile for two hours in full speaker sound!!! It doesn't depleted!!! After 2 hours I checked it once again... it also have 6 percent of battery remaining!!!!but i recharged the mobile at that night only, meantime i get messages, calls and all!!!! Dont think that when the battery bars is two or below, you battery capacity is fully depleted!!!! The last three bars give more worktime than the first two!!!! How do you know this, only s3500 know this! You are faker only!! Get a life man!!!! Stop giving FAKE comments in this forum, because every know the S3500 is superior!!! CHEERS!!!

Each of them can have its own snooze time, number of repetitions and activation days. The volume can also be different for each alarm.

BLOCK Calls n SMS: u can block calls as well as sms. "Flight mode" "USB charging" "bluetooth security" when u connect other phones through bluetooth it ask for a passcode....it really enhance ur phone secutity bcoz of this ur phone can not be hack through any hacking tool. another awesome feature is when you connect through Bluetooth to any other device you can take a control of that phone as all files and folders of other connected phone are displayed on S3500. You can take whichever files you want without bothering other person. "PROTECTION ON" bcoz of this protection on feature you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. main importance of this feature is that u can protect any of ur messages, videos, pics, songs etc from accidental deletion. it really makes the file management of s3500 best among the non smart fones no other fone apart from samsung have this feature. its really helpful take a case: 1) u accidently delete all ur sent messages @ once n then u remember there is one important mess along em.... but u knw if ur important mess is protected it wont b deleted even wen u press delete for all the messages. 2)if u have 400 messages or 500 wallpapers n u want to delete all except 20 or 30 important one. now even if like on others fone u have multiple deletion feature u hav to browse all the 500 wallpapers to save those bunch of wallpapers. but here in s3500 u can do the same or u can take advantage of this "protection feature". if u hav already protected ur important pics or messages jus go to delete "ALL" n press ok(dont think twice) no need to do any browsing n all ur 470 pics will b deleted n those 30 wud b remains undeleted. (there is still lot more advantage of this feature so pls read earlier comments to knw more) "Fm recording" n the best part is the audio quality of recorded clip is shockingly loud n crystal clear n can save unlimited no. of stations. "call recording" crystal clear call recording n the other person on call will not hear any annoying beep. "Fake Call function" this feature enables you to activate a bogus incoming call, so you can free yourself from awkward conversations or dodgy situations by pretending to take a call. For added authenticity, you can record your own or ur friends fake voice "call" that plays back when you answer. "Menu transition effect" if u seen latest aamir khan's samsung ad then u wud probably knw wat i m talking bout...wenever u press a button the screen slides from right to left....it looka awesome...u can also change ur transition effect. "MOBILE TRACKER 2.0" Mobile tracker automatically sends an SMS message to a pre-designated number alerting you when your phone�s SIM card is changed, increasing your chances of recovering a lost or stolen mobile phone. "SOS FUNCTION" in an emergency jus press either end of the volume key 4 times when the phone is closed. this will send the SOS message to ur selected recipients. if they call u back their call will be automatically connected. its definately a life saving feature. "Message alert repetition": it will alert u in evry 2 min if there is an unread mes on ur phone....u can put it off too. "keypad lights" automatically set according to day night usage or according to ur custom usage dont have to on or off it manually. have all the features which only a music phone possess....n music player is SHOCKINGLY LOUD & CRYSTAL CLEAR.. "Random Wallpaper Effect" very intresting feature...wenever u use ur mobile n came back to standby....it will welcome u with diffrent wallpapers of ur choice each time. for ex if u r using katrina kaif theme u can assign diffrent wallpaper of her so wenever u use phone u'll see her theme n wenever u came back to standby u'll see diffrent wallpaper of katrina each time(to know more read earlier reviews) "BLUETOOTH MESSAGING" (chat/sms through bluetooth FREE OF COST) 1st of all its free secondly its in chat form u can see the history n third u dont have to wait for send or receive as it does chatting instantly.... "smart dialling" its a great feature guyz if by any chance any one of u use a i phone u probably knw it Smart Dialing is when you press a number and a list comes up that corresponds the number with the letts. For example, number 6 has the letters "M, N, and O," so if you type 6 three times, it'll find "mom." Say you want to dial Carl, you'll press, 2275 moreover wenevr u dial any number like 98 now wen u dial the third number it will giv u all the options saved on ur phone book havin those 3 numbers or even unsaved one which is in ur dialled/received/missed/incoming sms/outgoin sms list u dont have to dial anymore jus 3 numbers for ex if u dial 987 all the numbers havin these three numbers like 9872345678, 9876767545 etc will b shown on the screen n to narrow the search add another number than it will show only those options havin those 4 numbers... its pretty cool "SMS ZOOM Function" cam cover: cam is not at the back of fone....it is inbetween the slide so slide act as a cam cover...protect lens from scratches, dust n all. can change DEFAULT MEMORY setting: u can change default memory settings of bluetooth, wap downloads, camera, camcorder, voice recorder, fm radio etc from phone mem to memory card. for ex: now when u transfer any file through bluetooth or click a pic, or record a radio clip they'll b directly stored in ur mem card. awesome image viewer: the image viewer itself adjust the pics n images according to its need irrespective of its SIZE n RESOLUTION. so u dont need to edit ur pic on pc in order to use it on ur phone. s3500 automatically process em no matter how oversized they are. jus transfer the pic to ph mem. Awesome file management: The functionality of the file browser is one of the best among non-smartphones. You can copy or move files - both one by one or in bulk, and you can create and delete new folders (save for the basic ones). Files can also be sent via Bluetooth one by one or multiple at once. Throughout the whole file manager, you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. The whole file navigation thingy is really quick with no lags whatsoever. apart from these there are a lot more features like "AUTO REPLY" , "night mode", cut copy paste in messaging....the list is endless.....we r still exploring..... s3500 is a "ALLROUNDER" phone cheers :p

  • dear angel we hav already elaborated the diffrence between two btw i m jus copy pastin earlier comment: "......first of all take the look at pics of both the phone n decide wat u want... the one advantage here bout s3500 is its premium brushed mettalic look (i hate plastic slide phones) s3500 looks much costlier/luxurious. but if u like colourfull phone than go for m2710. s3500 is more sleek...width:14.3mm whereas m2710 : 16mm s3500 has 1 crore 60 lakh colours whereas m2710 has jus 256 thousand colours(really a huge diffrence....62 time more colours). so fr watchin movies or seein pics s3500 is the best. s3500 screen is BIG. cam of s3500 is much better than the other... infact the best cam in its price segment. in short m2710 is jus a music phone whereas s3500 is a allrounder phone: awesome looks + awesome specs + awesome music + awesome cam+ awesome camcorder + awesome features.(read its great features in earlier comments) one advantage here with m2710 is u'll get 3.5mm jack with it... although its not a big deal u can anytime buy a 3.5mm adapter @ as low as Rs 50. choice is yours buddy....." in terms of music also s3500 is simply awesome...music player is shockingly loud n crystal clear. n yup it comes in silver colour (but its not simple silver its mettalic silver) coz it is not a plastic slide phone it has premium brushed stainless steal design. metallic silver goes really well according to its metallic look. its a metallic phone thats why its silver. ok jus close ur eyes now tell me which colour come to ur mind when u hear the word STAINLESS STEEL..... i think now u understand the whole story... as i said earlier choice is urs buddy. hope it help. tk cr.

Shame on you Samsung, and especially you PPG industrial area service centre.

  • thanks friend.. samsung 3500 is great.

  • This is the earlier comment of S3500 by LG faker Nevin Joseph: Pros: Bigger display, richer colours, good looks, 8GB expandable memory, surprisingly loud speaker (mono). dated on 2009-10-28 17:52! Now he is saying!!! "S3500 is the ugliest slider phone ever!" every s3500 users will laugh by his comments!!! "Display clarity with 16M colors...so you can get lively images.... 262K colour is'nt that bad either. But with a brighter display, the colour is much more highlighted" another joke!!! ha ha ha ha!!! I gave a suitable example for this!!! He is just comparing Screen resolution of N73 with 2000 rs. TATA phone!!! My tata phone is brighter than my room's tubelight!!! So the colours are very distinct!!! He did not know that the brightness of s3500... sin, because he never touched a 16M phone with full of Brightness(s3500)! Joke Number #3: "sliding model with mettalic finish.... Crap slider with a cheap plastic body and only metallic paint to fool people. Gets scratched very easily" Without using the phone, how can he say that s3500 is scrathced easily!!! I'm using the phone for about more than 3months, every day i see my phone its brand new!!! The main disadvantage of LG GM200 is its look!! It is very bad to see, as i see the images in internet, i got vomit!!! Having that vomiting dappa, he is telling s3500 is ugly!!! Nice comedy man!!! Joke Number #4: "Calendars - Calendar Function is awesome in this phone. It have all Indian Holidays marked. If there is a public holiday (date) it will show a icon below and when u click button, it will show you which holiday it is. Why do you even compare these kinds of thngs....it's in every phone dude.."----> hey which phone posses, say the name of the phone!!! Did you phone have this feature... Hmm!!! Dont fool others!!! Joke Number #6: "PRIVACY LOCK: Locking function is also very good where you can lock ur Messages, call log, phonebook, ur files (pics, videos, games etc), calender, memo, task etc...watever u want. really a unique function... Unique... I can do the same stuff as well on my GM200" ha ha ha ha!!! this feature is present in LG GM200,,, ha ha ha ha !!! You are making and ensuring that you are FAKER again!!! telling fake comments!!! Joke number #7: ""bluetooth security" when u connect other phones through bluetooth it ask for a passcode....it really enhance ur phone secutity bcoz of this ur phone can not be hack through any hacking tool. Same here too.... another awesome feature is when you connect through Bluetooth to any other device you can take a control of that phone as all files and folders of other connected phone are displayed on S3500. You can take whichever files you want without bothering other person. GM200 also has that same feature. Even hidden files and folders become visible with that." dont kinda us!!!! These are the open jokes or emotional outburst made by Navin Joseph dated on : 2009-11-04 11:21!! He only say two things!!! 1) if a nice feature is present in s3500, he say that feature is nice but i dont need that!!! 2) if a nice feature is present in s3500, he say that this feature is interesting my Gm200 too having!!! There are many mega features s3500 possess when compared to GM200!!! we dont want to say, every body dont like the LG GM200, while seeing the pics and specs in the internet!!! But one advice, beware of this LG faker NAVIN JOSEPH!!! lots and lots more!!! He is just a very good comedy man with his dialogues without any body language!!! ha ha ha ha ha ha ha hahaha h ha!!!!!!!!

Multiple Alarm: There are five alarm slots available on the Samsung S3500 and additional ones can be created if needed. Each of them can have its own snooze time, number of repetitions and activation days. The volume can also be different for each alarm. Furthermore, you can set different tones for each of the alarms and you can choose whether it should trigger phone vibration. Calendars - Calendar Function is awesome in this phone. It have all Indian Holidays marked. If there is a public holiday (date) it will show a icon below and when u click button, it will show you which holiday it is. "theme creator" through theme creator u can create n customize ur own theme according to ur choice of colours n ur choice of pics... its really a awesome feature for those who loves customization.... (to knw more bout it pls read earlier comments) PRIVACY LOCK: Locking function is also very good where you can lock ur Messages, call log, phonebook, ur files (pics, videos, games etc), calender, memo, task etc...watever u want. really a unique function...

"Flight mode" "USB charging" "bluetooth security" when u connect other phones through bluetooth it ask for a passcode....it really enhance ur phone secutity bcoz of this ur phone can not be hack through any hacking tool. another awesome feature is when you connect through Bluetooth to any other device you can take a control of that phone as all files and folders of other connected phone are displayed on S3500. You can take whichever files you want without bothering other person. "Fm recording" n the best part is the audio quality of recorded clip is shockingly loud n crystal clear n can save unlimited no. of stations. "call recording" crystal clear call recording n the other person on call will not hear any annoying beep. "Fake Call function" this feature enables you to activate a bogus incoming call, so you can free yourself from awkward conversations or dodgy situations by pretending to take a call. For added authenticity, you can record your own or ur friends fake voice "call" that plays back when you answer. "Menu transition effect" if u seen latest aamir khan's samsung ad then u wud probably knw wat i m talking bout...wenever u press a button the screen slides from right to left....it looka awesome...u can also change ur transition effect. "MOBILE TRACKER 2.0" Mobile tracker automatically sends an SMS message to a pre-designated number alerting you when your phone�s SIM card is changed, increasing your chances of recovering a lost or stolen mobile phone.

Awesome file management: The functionality of the file browser is one of the best among non-smartphones. You can copy or move files - both one by one or in bulk, and you can create and delete new folders (save for the basic ones). Files can also be sent via Bluetooth one by one or multiple at once. Throughout the whole file manager, you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. The whole file navigation thingy is really quick with no lags whatsoever. apart from these there are a lot more features like "AUTO REPLY" , "night mode"....the list is endless.....we r still exploring..... s3500 is a "ALLROUNDER" phone stop moaning man.... control ur emotions bro ur frustration is very much visible now :p ok lets talk bout real probs s3500 is great at multitasking n do u knw gm200 cant even do anything wen radio is on...lol -gm200 cant even minimize radio. -no themes -wat a muzik phone which have playlist size limitation only 50. -no call recording -astonishingly slow UI -mes key not userfriendly -cant lock messages -cant lock ur videos, songs, softwares , games -cant lock phone book, phone log, calender, memo etc -cant zoom mesages -cant lock files to prevent accidental file deletion -doesnt have menu transition effect -doesnt have mesg alert repetition -doesnt have auto keypad light setting(on & off automatically according to preset timing) -doesnt have random wallpaper effect -doesnt have bluetooth messaging -doesnt have smart dialling -doesnt have auto mes reply function -doesnt have any protection or cam cover for cam at the back -doesnt have memory slot expendable to 16 gb (only 2gb) -doesnt have 2.2 inch screen (only 2 inch) -doesnt have 1 crore 60 lakh colours (only 256thousand colours: 62 times leass colours) -doesnt have 240*320 screen resolution (poor 176*220) -low internal mem only 14mb...lol -doesnt have QVGA video recording (infirior qcif vedio rec) -doesnt have 320*240 video recording resolution (poor 177*144) -cant record videos in MPEG4 and H.263 formats. -doesnt have multiple alarm -doesnt have theme creator -doesnt have calender which shows all indian holidays -doesnt have sos feature -cant block sms -cant block calls -even though s3500 is a slide phone n gm200 is a bar phone....s3500 is more sleek there are too many others points but i think its enough for today. bro grow up n stop all this boo booing like kids. go n write watever u want in ur forum n stop polluting others. STOP WRITING FAKE COMMENTS. STOP CRYING LIKE BABIES N GET A LIFE.

  • dear sabhya bro i think u r confused with "protection on" feature. bro its another awesome feature of s3500. u knw bcoz of this protection feature you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. main importance of this feature is that u can protect any of ur messages, videos, pics, songs etc from accidental deletion. it really makes the file management of s3500 best among the non smart fones no other fone apart from samsung have this feature. its really helpful take a case: 1) u accidently delete all ur sent messages @ once n then u remember there is one important mess along em.... but u knw if ur important mess is protected it wont b deleted even wen u press delete for all the messages. 2)if u have 400 messages or 500 wallpapers n u want to delete all except 20 or 30 important one. now even if like on others fone u have multiple deletion feature u hav to browse all the 500 wallpapers to save those bunch of wallpapers. but here in s3500 u can do the same or u can take advantage of this "protection feature". if u hav already protected ur important pics or messages jus go to delete "ALL" n press ok(dont think twice) no need to do any browsing n all ur 470 pics will b deleted n those 30 wud b remains undeleted. and to delete evn those protected file either u can off the protection or wenever u delete a file a "protected" box appear nw jus by clicking middle key u can check uncheck the box. if u check it all the files including protected one will b deleted. bro u get diffrent options wen deleting diffrent things like mess, pics, audio, video. for ex: wen u press delete all in messages than 2 box appers one is "protected" other is "unread"... i kw u r confused with that... so here is the answer wen both are unchecked all ur messages will b delete except protected and uread messages. n if u check em by pressing middle key all the messages will b deleted including protected n unread one. now wen u delete ur pics u got options like: protected, wallpaper, shared etc so here also before deletig all the wallpapers ur s3500 is jus askig u if u wanna delete protected pics too, likewise did u want to delete those wallpapers too which u r using right now, or those files which are shared i.e pics that u hav added to ur contacts to make use of picture calling feature. so it wont delete these pics which u r using without prompting u. so u r confuse bout how to on or off this feature. here it is: wenever u find any pic or message, or song, or video important to u n u want it to protect from getting accidently deleted jus press option n browse downward to protection n click middle key to protect that particular file. do the same to off the protection. it will off the protection of that particular file. as simple as that. protection on n off is for ny particular file. n those options like unread, shared, protected, wallpaper etc will pop up only to confirm that u never delete anything by mistake. so if u dont have any protected file jus ignore it n press delete. its a awesome feature that makes s3500 file management the best among non smart phoe. bro after reading all ur comment i m explaining it in full details hope it will help u.

  • Part 2/2 Expandable memory upto 8GB(cant think of it in NOKIA PHONES-only upto 2GB).... Ok that is quite handy but with a hot swap slot I can carry around a nomber of cards and swap em easily at will. Multiple Alarm: There are five alarm slots available on the Samsung S3500 and additional ones can be created if needed. Each of them can have its own snooze time, number of repetitions and activation days. The volume can also be different for each alarm. Furthermore, you can set different tones for each of the alarms and you can choose whether it should trigger phone vibration. Are you kidding me??? GM200 has multiple alarms as well with even provision for setting mp3 or a particular FM STATION as wake up call. So you can wakeup to the sound of your fav song or fav FM station. Calendars - Calendar Function is awesome in this phone. It have all Indian Holidays marked. If there is a public holiday (date) it will show a icon below and when u click button, it will show you which holiday it is. Why do you even compare these kinds of thngs....it's in every phone dude.. PRIVACY LOCK: Locking function is also very good where you can lock ur Messages, call log, phonebook, ur files (pics, videos, games etc), calender, memo, task etc...watever u want. really a unique function... Unique... I can do the same stuff as well on my GM200 BLOCK Calls n Sms's: u can block calls as well as sms. Ok you can have that "Flight mode"... I do have that "bluetooth security" when u connect other phones through bluetooth it ask for a passcode....it really enhance ur phone secutity bcoz of this ur phone can not be hack through any hacking tool. Same here too.... another awesome feature is when you connect through Bluetooth to any other device you can take a control of that phone as all files and folders of other connected phone are displayed on S3500. You can take whichever files you want without bothering other person. GM200 also has that same feature. Even hidden files and folders become visible with that. "Fm recording" n the best part is the audio quality of recorded clip is shockingly loud n crystal clear n can save unlimited no. of stations. Dude.... with a higher reception and wireless FM the recorded mp3 is just like the real stuff... "call recording" crystal clear call recording n the other person on call will not hear any annoying beep. Ok it is the one thing that is not available currently in GM200. Maybe i'm expectin in latest firmware version. "Fake Call function" this feature enables you to activate a bogus incoming call, so you can free yourself from awkward conversations or dodgy situations by pretending to take a call. For added authenticity, you can record your own or ur friends fake voice "call" that plays back when you answer. Good one but something I can live without Menu transition effect if u seen latest aamir khan's samsung ad then u wud probably knw wat i m talking bout...wenever u press a button the screen slides from right to left....it looka awesome...u can also change ur transition effect. Haven't you seen the GM200 interface, it's flash based. let's see how good you menu transitions compared to that? "MOBILE TRACKER 2.0" Mobile tracker automatically sends an SMS message to a pre- designated number alerting you when your phone�s SIM card is changed, increasing your chances of recovering a lost or stolen mobile phone. Same stuff on GM200 with same function "SOS FUNCTION" in an emergency jus press either end of the volume key 4 times when the phone is closed. this will send the SOS message to ur selected recipients. if they call u back their call will be automatically connected. its definately a life saving feature. Ohhh i'll think about it when I'm living in Afghanistan Message alert repetition: it will alert u in evry 2 min if there is an unread mes on ur phone....u can put it off too. Same her with mp3 customisable message tones. keypad lights automatically set according to day night usage or according to ur custom usage dont have to on or off it manually. I've got power saver the LG version of your thing have all the features which only a music phone possess....n music player is shockingly loud n clear. that's just about it? what about a 3.5mm jack and stereo speakers? "Random Wallpaper Effect" very intresting feature...wenever u use ur mobile n came back to standby....it will welcome u with diffrent wallpapers of ur choice each time.(to know more read earlier reviews) Good feature but not as convincing. I'd rather change it myself. "smart dialling" "SMS ZOOM Function" think about when i'm old. cam cover: cam is not at the back of fone....it is inbetween the slide so slide act as a cam cover...protect lens from scratches, dust n all. Unlike nokia and other phones, GM200 lens aperture is made of scratch resistant glass so you dont have to worry about scratching the lens cover. Just wipe it with a dry cloth. it is as simple as that. can change DEFAULT MEMORY setting: u can change default memory settings of bluetooth, wap downloads, camera, camcorder, voice recorder, fm radio etc from phone mem to memory card. for ex: now when u transfer any file through bluetooth or click a pic, or record a radio clip they'll b directly stored in ur mem card. My default memory will automatically be set to memory card on insertion. no need to set it seperately. Awesome file management: The functionality of the file browser is one of the best among non-smartphones. You can copy or move files - both one by one or in bulk, and you can create and delete new folders (save for the basic ones). Files can also be sent via Bluetooth one by one or multiple at once. Throughout the whole file manager, you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. The whole file navigation thingy is really quick with no lags whatsoever. This doesn't even count as a function. I do have a great file browser as well. apart from these there are a lot more features like "THEME CREATOR" or BLUETOOTH MESSAGING....the list is endless.....we r still exploring..... You can also Protect you messages and Files by Protection on OPTION!!! By this option you can prevent you files from eventual deleting!!! s3500 is a "ALLROUNDER" phone!!and nothing else.. But GM200 is a dedicated music phone with allround functionality... And that's just about it.... Apart from screen, my GM200 competes equally with your crap S3500 but I still got more for you... Pay 500 extra and you get 1year anti theft insurance coverage and 1GB san disk memory card GM200 is a dedicated music phone with 3.5mm earphone jack Great music quality Dolby mobile 2.0 which is currently available in high end models like ARENA and Nokia N95. it also improves sound quality a lot and gives you a virtual surround experience 2.1 channel speakers with dedicated woofer for perfecting bass sounds loudly and clearly. No other phone can match the output and fidelity of GM200. Inbuilt ringtone creator for clipping mp3 with ease. A fully functional picture editor with crop, rotate, resize, etc options Fastest charging time of about 90 minutes for a fully discharged battery. 1100 Mah battery as opposed to the puny 850Mah battery. Enjoy hours of music, videos, whatever... Bluetooth with FTP, serial and A2DP profiles.. All these will give you and your S3500 a run for your money... Decision is yours for all those who going to buy a phone of less than Rs.5000 or paying a little extra to get much morethan you can think of!!! I did this comparison on your same posting so that you can easily get it into your head and do a side by side comparison. Now you tell me GM200 is the baap of S3500... REGARDS!!! NEVIN!!!!!!

  • BOSS since you are here!!! Your S3500 sucks!!! Now i say you how LG GM200 is much more better than S3500!!! 1) S3500 have 240 x 320 screen display whereas LG GM200 have 176 x 220, Ok if it's something i can live with as it wont drain my battery while providing adequate pic quality. I won't be complaining over it unless your phone is a smartphone with an HTML browser or a dedicated camera phone. 2)S3500 have 1 crore 60 lac colour combination where as LG GM200 have only 2 lac and 56 thousand colour combination!!! Well to an average user that doesn't make much of a difference. The only advantage you get is that in your display, the wallpapers appear a bit more saturated and realistic. 3)LG GM200 is again a boring bar phone But S3500 is the ugliest slider phone ever!!! And it ain't even metallic. Only metallic looks on a cheap plastic body. 4) Video recording is recorded in QVGA in S3500 (much more better than other 2MP phone!!! My friends cant believe that the video is taken in 2MP camera) See the video clarity in You tube!!! Ok that great and I appreciate that but with only 15fps not so appealing. Nokia 3120c can record video in VGA resolution but the same problem persists 15fps so it's not all about video resolution. It's about the frames. 5) s3500 accepts upto 16GB but LG GM200 only 2GB!!! Dont know if 16GB is verifies but ok i'll give it to you for that. But without a hotswap slot you are stuck to your card forever. I can swap different cards anytime I want. Price: S3500 is less than 5000!! LG Gm200 5500 Ok that is inclusive of 1year anti theft insurance and 1Gb additional sanddisk card. 2MP camera... AWESOME.... Not as appealing.. GM200 cam is by every aspect better than S3500 cam. just check out the pics that i have posted. Video resolution 320 x 240, qvga video recording... VERY GOOD....but with only 15fps very bad. There are nokia classic phones with video recording in VGA resolution but with 15fps. It totally ruins the advantage of a better resolution. Fake call mangaement.... due to this facility you can just clicking a button, a fake call will come that will prevent you from critical situations.... That i do think is quite unique with this phone. Bluetooth which you can browse other phones files....Really awesome feature, that i never seen in other phones.... You're so ignorant. GM200 to has that feature and the biggest advantage is that when paired with nokia phones, the other user wont even be aware of what all things are taken from his phone. Loud and crystal clear sound.... Loud and crystal clear sound better than s3500 with definitive dolby advantage and advanced noise cancellation. Can even talk with the phone two feet apart. The mic is that much sensitive and clear. Another advantage is that when ordinary earphones are used, the phone's mic can be used to answer calls instead of requiring earphones with mic. Display clarity with 16M colors...so you can get lively images.... 262K colour is'nt that bad either. But with a brighter display, the colour is much more highlighted. 2.2 inch display(That you never see in nokia phone of this range, even if you spend two or three thousands extra) Yeah i'd appreciate that if it was a smart phone with a document viewer or a dedicated camera phone. Otherwise I can live with 2.0 inch displays. Security management(can lock your sms,calender,call log, memory card, files, events, memo, task,etc... Ok i can do that as well on my phone. sliding model with mettalic finish.... Crap slider with a cheap plastic body and only metallic paint to fool people. Gets scratched very easily. USB charging...Good feature at this price..... You call that a feature, almost all LG phones have USB charging. Even my C2500 had this. FM with radio data system.... Wireless FM with RDS.. ha ha... reception is unbeatsble No limit for FM stations... Yeah there are only about 43 FM stations allotted all over India. So even if you travel all over India 48 preset stations seem more practical as in GM200 and the channels are displayed in grid view for easy cahnging between channels with four way navigation.

  • Battery level changes according to our consumption!!! I using this set for more than 3 months!!! First of all when you buy a new phone, you have to put the phone for 8 hours charge when you switch on the phone for first time! While doing this the full battery backup come to life! If you directly use the phone after opening the pack and make it drains, the battery performance to the rest of the years will be worst! So i kindly ask all new users and those who are going to buy s3500 or any other mobile, recharge the mobile for 8 hours when you switch on the mobile for the first time!!! I have a battery back up of about more 2.5 days!! Even i using the profile as MELODY + VIBRATION! Daily i used to hear music for more than 2 hours and watch videos regularly on mean time and regular usage of mobile such as receiving and sending many messages, calls, etc!!! Then we have gave some battery backup tips for more battery performance! REGARDS!!! BOSS!!!!!!

So since you are the person wrth talking here, I though i might ask you.

  • bro battry backup is good. it gives u around 2.5 to 3 days wen use moderately. to provide u more info i m jus copy pastin ma earlier review: "......there are two things i wann tell u here: first of all it has 5 bettery bars shown at the upper right end of the fone n wenever its 3 bars dissappears people thought that bettery is drained out but u knw friend its remaining two bars last for lot more than u expect.... they give u much more power than earlier three bars.... secondly bro u hav recently bought this phone... its brand new for u....its ur exploring phase goin on... u r using it more often than one can usually do. most of the time u'll b clickin it to get familier with its features @ this point of time ur bettery will drain fast coz u r using more of it now. so it will take some days wen u start using it moderately. i remember wen i bought this phone at least for a week i used it extensively .... i ws exploring all of its awesome functions....." ".....to increase its bettery life: -jus decrease the brightness of the phone -dont use the keypad light in day this is a very good feature...(n u dont have to keep ur keypad lights on n off everyday... u can jus set a time like from 5pm to 9am n it will off n on ur lights at the preset time everyday....try it) -use melody instead of vibration + melody -keep the keypad tone off etc -dont use animated wallpapers explore it u'll find lot more tips too this will help u in increasing ur bettery backup. good thing is u got "USB CHARGING" feature so jus connect it to ur PC while u r working n charge it...." scondly bro jus do one thing u got 45mb internal memory on phone so transfer all ur stuff songs, videos, softwares etc to mem card n use ur phone mem for pics n images. u knw buddy 45mb is enough to store 400 to 500 images. even i hav around 490 wallpapers saved on my phone mem. or u can use middle key instead of left soft key while vewing pics on mem card it will surely reduce the burden. hope it help.

  • wen ur bettry is fully charged the bettry bars stop blinking. moreover u'll hear a tone n the fone will play that tone evry min untill u remove the charger.

  • yup u can transfer ur stuff over ur pc through bluetooth. but usb is still preferable on account of two points 1) i charge my phone through usb. 2)wireless can never b as fast as usb i m talking bout transfering big files here 200/500mb. now excuse us n stick to ur forum.

  • hey bro thanks for the theme. i really like it with suggestion 3. pls do post some more.

  • hmmmm this lg FAKER came here again!!!!!!!!!!! man u really the biggest shameless guy i hav ever encounter in ma life.... how the f u write conclusion here???????? as i said earlier guyz BEWARE of this faker(navin joseph) here. he came here jus bcoz of his frustration coz he own a ugly lg phone n we have already proved here with facts how s3500 is better than his dabba phone.., so he is jus using these kinda cheap tectics... but i think man instead of writing fake here try YOGA(LOL) may b that will help u to cope up ur frustration....hehehehe u knw man on these forums where people came here to knw the experience of users to clarify their doubt its really SHAME to write fake reviews bout any phones wen in the first place u havnt even touch em... get a life dude(n i mean it) n stop plolluting this forum. by the way wat u said bout image viewer!!!!!!!...lol do u knw anythin?????? image viewer is great man u can transfer any size of pic or any resolution doesnt matter how oversized they are n if even other fones cant support em, to our phone the image viewer automatically adjust the pics according to its requirement. it automatically process em. man have some decency n serve ur lg forum.

  • when there is incoming call u can silent it by reducing volume frm side volume keys and also u can mute it.

  • Hey BOSS i've got a doubt regarding BT FTP. Is it possible to transfer files from a PC using a bluetooth dongle? i.e. can we view all the drives and folders on the PC? If it was possible, I would have greatly appreciated it. I could just take what I want from my PC while i lay in my bed. Gotta make life as easy as possible..na?

  • hai!!! to all samsung s3500 users!!! Here i'm giving a wallpaper for s3500!!! I'm using this wallpaper and created a theme from this wallpaper by the inbuilt theme creator in s3500!!!! the wallpaper and the theme created is very good for this handset!!! Please use this wallpaper and create a theme!!! Then reply me with your comments!!! Thank you!!!

  • Best phones in a market in 5000 range 5130, GM200 and S3500 each have there + and -. Go to shop try these 3 and buy which suits u most. Each human-being has it's own taste and opinion.

  • There are few Non S3500 users giving negative feedback about this product and would request them to please concentrate on their handset rather than flirting around here. I'm using this phone since last 3 weeks and am OK with it as far as its features and performance are concerned. I see some users complain about bad battery back up and, yes, it has got an average battery, but if you play music and take pictures and videos for hours any cell phone battery would burn out for sure, and please remember this is a cell phone and not a music player. If you want to listen music take an ipod and for taking pictures use Digital Camera.

  • If battery backup is that much of an issue, you should've gone for other models with a beefier battery. And the pic viewer sux.. there is nothing practical that can be done about this...

  • Hi, I have purchased S3500 last week. I have a problem in navigating the pictures in memory card. I have to go back and open each picture to view it. But I can navigate pictures in phone memory. Anyone please assist me to navigate pics in memory card. Do i need to install any picture viewer software? Also i am afraid of battery backup. Its holding at most for a day & not more than that. can anybody tell me what's the maximum backup time of the battery you used with maximum utilization?

  • thanks friend..but plz tell how to silent the vibrator..during an incoming call..plz tell. and also tell is there any indicator or display or message on screen showing that battery is full.. when it is on charging and how many hours are required for complete charge??

  • need dictionary and pdf reader for this mobile.. suggest some links or sites and procedure to feed it.

  • Hey man cry cry cry!!! to make out s3500 superior!!!! hey i have used Nokia 3310 classic previously and now i bought s35oo!!! I know how the s3500 very much ease to use than nokia!!! 1)"Very very difficult to install JAR Files, it needs JAD File, even if you make JAD file and install the application, 95% application will not work." ha ha ha ha ha!! very funny man !! I have installed many games in my mobile!!! Did you know than more than 98% of the games are working!!! Dont make your emotional outburst here!!!! 2)"When you are setting Wallpaper or Ringtone, it is moving to Phone Memory"!! once again ha ha ha ha!!! hey it's for benefit!!!when you discard you memory card, the wallpaper and ringtones(&ringtones adjusted to every contact doesnot change!!!!In my previous nokia, when i discard the memory card and used in cardreader for connecting to PC... All my ringtones assumed to many contacts come to default!!! It's very frustating moment.... for me!!! So i privately bought a data cable for data transfer(about Rs.250), In nokia mobiles they donot give datacable, Software Cd along with the pack!!! Another nice thing in s3500, you will get the datacable, Software cd along with the pack!!! 3)For your 6th question, use the middle key... By using that navigating to next will made some simple!!! 4)How many time we say,, the headphone comes with the phone is too good to hear the pleasureness of music!!! If they dont give the headphone, they you can say that "this phone doesnot have 3.5 mm jack" And another thing, you can buy the adapter for 3.5 mm jack which will cost only Rs.50!!!!!! Which will not that much big adapter as LAPTOPS have... It is only a small connector!!! Dont tell silly things as BIG BIG BIG Disadvantages!!! Get a life man!!! I think you are telling that, My tata mobile have a welcome note, whereas N73 doesnot have a welcome note!!! My tata is much more superior than N73!!! See how funny you are!!! Make the most of now!!!

  • Some Dis-Advantages of S3500 ============================= 1) You cant open Memory Card when u r listening the music in MUSIC PLAYER 2) Very very difficult to install JAR Files, it needs JAD File, even if you make JAD file and install the application, 95% application will not work. 3) When you are setting Wallpaper or Ringtone, it is moving to Phone Memory 4) When Somebody Caliing, there is no option for silent, u have to reduce by clcicking side key(volume key) to 0 5) Wallpaper setting is not adjusted to screen, it will only occupy the full screen if the picture is 240 x 320 resolution. 6) You cant go Next and Previous Pictures or Songs in Memory Card,you have to cone back and see the pictures or come back and play the songs 7) No 3.5 mm Jack and many more dis advantages, peoples already used Nokia will find difficulty in this mobile.

  • hehehe man u got to b kiddin me.... we all knw u r just a

  • Ok.. here's a list of things that I find a bit annoying in this phone.. -For a bigger display, I don't think the font size has to be that much bigger. It gives an old fashioned look. Smaller fonts suits well and also gives the appearance of a smartphone interface. -Flash interface would have scored big time on the colourful and bigger display. It would have been eye catchy to an otherwise ordinary look. -Bigger display always demand a bigger battery. There are batteries with higher mah rating and with the same size and wont make the phone look bulkier. -Samsung always wants it to sell their properitiary accessories so a native 3.1 mm jack would have did good for the customer but not for the company and it is still hectic to carry around an adapter if you could ever find one. -Better java support and a better wap browser would have gone well with the big display but the browser still looks old fashioned. -Since it ain't a smart phone, hot swap memory slot would have been preferable. -With a so called better camera and a colourful display, a photo editor of some sort would have been a welcome addition. Well these are some of the things that just annoys me. It's a stylish phone on the outside with the latest harware I agree but the interface and layout is still outdated and looks like from that of older models. It just doesn't have that modern touch to it. Nothing personal BOSS... but these are thing even you would have thought of... You know what I mean right?

  • So I am right after all, only wish others here had the manhood to admit the fact. It doesn't matter if you phone is a super computer. i don't care but the battery still sux big time...

  • Hey boss you rock and s3500 rocks too

  • i only smelled that, but you directly consume daily not only in Breakfast but also in dinner, snacks( by roasting it), lunch!!! ha ha ha ha ha ha !!! You little faker, come to my foot!!!!

  • hi.... I'm using S3500 for the past one and a half month... the only problem i'm facing is "poor battery backup...." In spite of following all tips... The phone is running out of battery in A days time... Experts Do U have any Idea about what is wrong???

  • You sound like it is exactly what you had for breakfast....

  • You are saying we are not responding to the user!! You eat the Bul*sh*t!!!!

  • Type *#9998*228#, you will get--- type: UNKNOWN Volt: 4231mV Temp: 29 C TxLevel: 0 then press down navigation key twice, you will get the level of Battery in percentage (eg:48%) Some day before, i used this method and i come to know that it has 26 percent of battery remaining!!! In main screen it shows 2 bars... At that time power cut... In our city when current goes off it will come after 2 hours.. I bored and played my favourite songs in my mobile for two hours in full speaker sound!!! It doesn't depleted!!! After 2 hours I checked it once again... it also have 6 percent of battery remaining!!!!but i recharged the mobile at that night only, meantime i get messages, calls and all!!!! Dont think that when the battery bars is two or below, you battery capacity is fully depleted!!!! The last three bars give more worktime than the first two! Battery backup tips!!! 1) First charge the Cell phone as usual... After full charging, there will be a message displayed for few seconds,"Battery Fully Charged, UnPlug the adapter"... After that, you charge again, when you do so, the battery will again charge.... Then the same message come after with in 15 to 20 minutes... Then unplug, now your battery backup will be more sufficient than before... -jus decrease the brightness of the phone -dont use the keypad light in day this is a very good feature...(n u dont have to keep ur keypad lights on n off everyday... u can jus set a time like from 5pm to 9am n it will off n on ur lights at the preset time everyday....try it) -use melody instead of vibration + melody -keep the keypad tone off etc -dont use animated wallpapers -brightness level is 1, then display off and dimmed will be 5 and 10 sec, then u get good battery performance.display is good while u set level 1.!!! Hope it will help!! REGARDS!! BOSS!!

  • You call yourself anonymous and think that I am fake even whie I am using my real name...thats funny. Anyhow the point I made was that Samsung service centres are poorly managed. This is my direct experience, you cannot challenge that...even if u think that I mishandled my cell. none of your business actually. Even if my cell did go faulty...I did expect Samsung to finx it in dectn time, not one week, and that too with such bad customer service. U have your opniion, I have mine, so just keep off, u dont own this forum...

  • no it can't play wmv

  • he he... let your beliefs give you a sigh of relief.

  • Does this phone can play movie of .wmv frmat?

  • hi scott wat r u saying bro... YUP u can set ur cliked photos as wallpaper on the whole screen of ur phone n yup it will cover the whole screen. jus do one thing goto ur menu - my files - images folder where all ur cam photos are saved n press option here the 3rd option is set as wallpaper - when u'll click it a question bar appears: "set as wallpaper? standard ratio view - now if u press left soft key(YES) the wallpaper will b set on the whole screen and if u press middle key n select standard ratio view only than ur whole pic will b set as wallpaper but it will not cover the whole screen. so bro its even better than other phones coz u got both the options here. bro i dont get ur second point in every other phone it will show the same video in pc watever u captured in the phone itself and @ watever angle u captured. bro bettery backup is good do read earlier comments u'll find plenty of advices to improve ur bettery life + it got usb charging.

  • I really surprise with using this phone. it,s looks stylish & comfortable for everyone.

  • I am using the samsung s3500 , it is a good phone but the only thing is that the pictures taken when set as wallpaper does not cover the screen it comes in between the screen. secondly when you caputre the video and try to paly on PC it shows the way it was captured as tilted or straight. other than this the battery is weak it gets shoten in some time. other than that the phone is perfectly fine ..excellent...

  • hehehe wow here comes the lg fettish again. wat u say same thing again n again?????????? n wats ur 3 speakers s***? isnt it ur again n again typo comment....lol hahahah (really i jus cant stop laughing) dont talk bout the cam man s3500 cam is much much supirior.... gm200 cam is really worst(see the specs). in all respect s3500 is trully a king. read below to compare man. i hav already write the comparision below n no need to boo booing over n over again. even if we dont talk bout innumerable awesome features of s3500, gm200 cant even stand s3500 specs....lol stop polluting other forums man n stick to urs.

  • There it goes again... the same old thing posted again n again n again.... I must admit your relentless compassion for your phone... Ok i'm jealous because my phone has 3 speakers, a jumbo battery, dolby mobile 2.0, a 3.5mm jack, a superb 2mp camera, hours and hours of nonstop quality music and also because of the fact that i get free GPRS on my @#$%%# up phone... Ohhhh my.. I must be real jealous of you guys...

  • Its upto you, bdy. U may buy any phn, maybe s3500, nokia 5130 xprsmusc, nokia 2700c. But remmbr: 1. Buy d phn frm a trustd brand. (nokia, motorola, samsung, se, lg, etc r all gud.) 2. Check if its under ur target budget(since u cn spnd upto rs.5500, nokia 5130 xm, 2700c, 7210 suprnova, s3500, se w205 are gud options. SE W205 and s3500 are slider phones). 3. For gud battery backup and music, u cn go for either 5130xprsmusc, se w205 or 2700c) 4. For a stylish, heavy, metallic finshd, wid loads of features+security, nd big display, go for s3500. 5. For userfrndly, nd easy of use phn, i advise u go for nokia phones. S3500 has loads of features though, its ur wish. I had similar problems, in choosing d bst phones..! I've used samsung, nokia, and motorola phones, nd i'm most cmfortable wid nokia (symbian os) phones.., d brand which has also been awarded as 'The most trusted brand in India, 09'. Now, The choice is urs. GUD LUCK.

  • s3500 is much much supirior than UGLY dabba gm200 first thing first s3500 is a piece of beauty while gm200 is really ugly now talk bout specs: s3500 vs gm200 2.2 inch screen Vs 2 inch screen even a simple person who doesnt knw anythin much bout specs will crave for a big screen. yup everyone loves big screen. 16m(1 crore 60 lakh colours) vs 256k (256 thousand colours) its a huge diffrence s3500 have 62 TIMES more colours so ur pics n videos look more colourfull n lively 240*320 screen resolution vs poor 176*220 screen resolution is poor in comparision to s3500 internal 45mb mem vs 14mb mem wow 14 mb wat a joke...lol although s3500 is a slide phone even though it has a sleek design n look -14.3 mm thickness whereas gm200 is bar phone but thickness is 14.4 mm...lol cam not at all comperable(u knw this) poor QCIF video recording with poor 176*144 resolution whereas s3500 has QVGA(much superior to qcif) video recording with great 320*240 resolution. check this out: by the way mr faker have u remember ur question???? ur question was: One doubt... does it support .mp4 AVC (h.264) video format? n my answer was: yup man it plays mp4 h.264 & h.263 @ 25/30 fps moreover for ur kind information it not only plays but record QVGA video in MPEG4 and H.263 formats. no other fone at its price can do that...lol hehehe n u never replied to this.... can ur gm200 do this??????? n most of all the thing that makes s3500 a sureshot winner is its unique n marvllous features... Multiple Alarm: There are five alarm slots available on the Samsung S3500 and additional ones can be created if needed. Each of them can have its own snooze time, number of repetitions and activation days. The volume can also be different for each alarm. Furthermore, you can set different tones for each of the alarms and you can choose whether it should trigger phone vibration. Calendars - Calendar Function is awesome in this phone. It have all Indian Holidays marked. If there is a public holiday (date) it will show a icon below and when u click button, it will show you which holiday it is. "theme creator" through theme creator u can create n customize ur own theme according to ur choice of colours n ur choice of pics... its really a awesome feature for those who loves customization.... (to knw more bout it pls read earlier comments) PRIVACY LOCK: Locking function is also very good where you can lock ur Messages, call log, phonebook, ur files (pics, videos, games etc), calender, memo, task etc...watever u want. really a unique function...

"Flight mode" "USB charging" "bluetooth security" when u connect other phones through bluetooth it ask for a passcode....it really enhance ur phone secutity bcoz of this ur phone can not be hack through any hacking tool. another awesome feature is when you connect through Bluetooth to any other device you can take a control of that phone as all files and folders of other connected phone are displayed on S3500. You can take whichever files you want without bothering other person. "Fm recording" n the best part is the audio quality of recorded clip is shockingly loud n crystal clear n can save unlimited no. of stations. "call recording" crystal clear call recording n the other person on call will not hear any annoying beep. "Fake Call function" this feature enables you to activate a bogus incoming call, so you can free yourself from awkward conversations or dodgy situations by pretending to take a call. For added authenticity, you can record your own or ur friends fake voice "call" that plays back when you answer. "Menu transition effect" if u seen latest aamir khan's samsung ad then u wud probably knw wat i m talking bout...wenever u press a button the screen slides from right to left....it looka awesome...u can also change ur transition effect. "MOBILE TRACKER 2.0" Mobile tracker automatically sends an SMS message to a pre-designated number alerting you when your phone�s SIM card is changed, increasing your chances of recovering a lost or stolen mobile phone. "SOS FUNCTION" in an emergency jus press either end of the volume key 4 times when the phone is closed. this will send the SOS message to ur selected recipients. if they call u back their call will be automatically connected. its definately a life saving feature. "Message alert repetition": it will alert u in evry 2 min if there is an unread mes on ur phone....u can put it off too.

Awesome file management: The functionality of the file browser is one of the best among non-smartphones. You can copy or move files - both one by one or in bulk, and you can create and delete new folders (save for the basic ones). Files can also be sent via Bluetooth one by one or multiple at once. Throughout the whole file manager, you can pick files you would like to lock to prevent accidental deletion. The whole file navigation thingy is really quick with no lags whatsoever. apart from these there are a lot more features like "AUTO REPLY" , "night mode"....the list is endless.....we r still exploring..... s3500 is a "ALLROUNDER" phone

  • wat r u talin bout are u that d*u*m*b havnt u read its awesome specs n unique features which u cant even dream of....lol it seems this unlucky soul never got a chance it see a 16m colour fone coz if he cud he will definately knw that there is a hell lot of diffrence. 16m have 62 times more colour. 62 times!!!!!!!!!!! i think u shud read it again....lol

  • How did you compare d battery of nokia 5130 xm/2700c (1020 mah), nd s3500(800 mah)..?? Datz a big diffrnce btwn d two..! And nokia 2700c have a 3.5mm audio jack, whereas s3500 does nt..! If u could purchase it by rs.50 (as you've said), y dnt u just do it?? The other features of s3500 are not bad, evry1 knws dat. But i'm sure, nokia 2700c wins in terms of battery backup, sound (quality not qnty), price, user friendliness n easy-of-use.

  • Pros: Bigger display, richer colours, good looks, 8GB expandable memory, surprisingly loud speaker (mono). Cons: Poor battery backup (850mah battery), no 3.5mm jack, body gets scratched easily even with blush metallic finish (body is actually plastic), no inbuilt picture edit tools (wallpapers have to be edited in PC and then transferred to memory card), tedious user interface for first time users. Just an ordinary phone with a big display and nothing else to blab about.

  • I made my mind to get this mobile but now i am seeing more negative comments popping up. Can anyone here using this phone with good enough experience on this can list out the Pros and Cons(every single one) so that it can guide people to make a decision on this phone. Thanks in advance

  • I completely agree with u Nevin Joseph S3500 is a Neutral phone.Like 5130 with music specialty, GM200 Dolby 2.1 , S300 has good Display. It doesn't specialize in any thing all it's feature are normal Satisfactory.

  • I totally agree with you... It's got everything i guess for a good phone with loads of features but still it is not as appealing. 5130 has got the best audio quality, GM200 has got the best battery back up and superb speakers but for S3500, though it's got a bigger display and better looks, it doesn't have anything solid to stress upon. It's just an average phone with a bigger display. And the metallic finishing is just a fancy mock up. It is still plastic and the underside gets scratched quite easily. Nokia and LG on the other hand has got so much to offer. The lack of a bigger display is compensated well in terms of audio quality and a user friendly interface. For mobile displays, 16bit(262K) and 32bit (16M) colour displays doesn't make much of a difference. 2.2 inch display suits a smart phone well but for this phone with it's minimal content support, I don't think it is a necessity unless there was a document viewer or a fully fledged web browser. Given the choice of a bigger display and battery backup, I would definitely go for the battery part. I know that most of have the same thoughts as me...

  • are you sure? b'coz i was planning to buy samsung s3500... kindly suggest..

  • should i buy samsung 3500? i want a phone which will work for approx 3 years... plz suggest...

  • hey guys... plz im damnn confused... many have posted some negative comments about it... n i have to buy the fone today itself... n i also want to go for a slider fone within the range of 5000-5500 which will work for approx. 3 years.... kindly suggest to what should i do? should i go for some other fone or blindly trust n buy this phone?... plz comment.

  • I'm nt telling dat s3500 is bad. I knw, it has got loads of features, lyk 2.2', 16 m display, 8 gb xpndabl, bluetooth wid ftp, theme creator, file lock, etc. But, i tink d nokia 2700c is just on top of it. 1st thing is dat it is userfriendly n easy2use (symbian s40 phn). Nokia 2700 costs only rs.4050/-, which is around 1k less than dat of s3500, wid 2 mp camera. And 3.5 mm audio jack(which u'll not find in any phn at diz price) And, do i need2 mention bout d battery (1020 mah), s3500 has only 850 mah, if m nt wrong. It also has a flash player, by which u can watch videos in youtube without evn dwnloading them. The sound quality is in par wid 5130 xm. Other features include Radio with RDS suprt, bluetooth wid A2DP, Nokia life tools, etc to name a few. Wat else, do u wnt?? By the way, We all know dat nokia is d most trusted brand in india.

  • from which sites we will get samsung 3500 themes..

  • What use are all these great features if this so called superb cell goes down within 2 months...I am sure I am not the only one who had this experience... And moreover, the way Samsung servoce centres are being handled...its a pathetic story. As bad as India govt offices and they take min...1 week even for the simplest repair. Fetaures are good no doubdt...but this aspect is very worrying. I anot happy with my decision to trust of samsung,

  • Samsung s3500 is no way comparable to Nokia 2700!!! In all aspects S3500 wins(Design, multimedia, music & sound, display clarity, display size, Look, memory, camera quality, Video recording, etc.. etc...) These are some of the features which S3500 only possess!!! Multiple Alarm,Calendars with all Indian holidays mentioned, theme creator, PRIVACY LOCK, Block calls even sms, Flight mode, USB charging, bluetooth security, Awesome FM and call recording, FAKE CALL FUNCTION, MENU TRANSITION EFFECT, MOBILE TRACKER, SOS function, SMS alert repetition, Random wallpaper funtion, Bluetooth messaging, Smart dialing, SMS zooming function, User friendly File management, Autoreply,, etc,, etc!!! You cant see these type of features in Nokia 2700... If you can, then say!!!!

  • It's great great phone!!! Nokia has good phone too but it will only take half a year and it will show symptoms of hanging. I bought 3 nokia phone already its shows the same symptoms. That is why I only buy SE and Samsung because of this. S3500 features is awesome considering the price. Downside is battery.. 1 days if used an mp3 and fm for 2-3 hrs and 2 days if used for texting and maximum of 10-20 call compilation. I'm looking for a spare battery right now. Can anyone recommend a spare battery for my s3500

  • nope s3500 is much supirior than 2700. first of all in terms of looks s3500 is a sureshot winner. s3500 has premium brushed mettalic look whereas 2700 is another boring plastic bar phone. s3500 has 16m colours(1 crore 60 lakh colours) wheras 2700 has jus 256 thousand colour (imagine 62 times less colours...a big diffrence) s3500 screen is larger than 2700 2.2 inch vs 2 inch 2700 expende upto only 2 gb whereas s3500 can be expended upto 16gb. moreover apart from specs it has innumerable awesome features..... take a look at this: at Rs. 5100 u'll get: 2.2 inch screen + 1 crore 60 lakh colours(16M) + 320*240 video recording resolution + excellent 2mp camera(the best in the class) + QVGA video recording + awesome music player(loud n crystal clear) + premuim brushed mettalic body u cant find these fetures in any other phone at its price or even if u pay rs2000 or 2500 more....(check urself) take a look at the camcorder of s3500: cam records video in mp4 format by default apart form its awesome specs..... other great features of s3500 are: Multiple Alarm: There are five alarm slots available on the Samsung S3500 and additional ones can be created if needed. Each of them can have its own snooze time, number of repetitions and activation days. The volume can also be different for each alarm.

  • Hi All, no doubt s3500 is 1 of d bst phn in d markt (for itz price). But, d newly launchd nokia 2700c is much bettr..., than any othr phns at itz price range.(nokia2700c costs only rs.4050/-). But, s3500 (which cost around rs.5400) is also a gud phn. I think these r d two bst phn in d market, having gud features at low price.

".....to increase its bettery life: -jus decrease the brightness of the phone -dont use the keypad light in day this is a very good feature...(n u dont have to keep ur keypad lights on n off everyday... u can jus set a time like from 5pm to 9am n it will off n on ur lights at the preset time everyday....try it) -use melody instead of vibration + melody -keep the keypad tone off etc -dont use animated wallpapers explore it u'll find lot more tips too this will help u in increasing ur bettery backup. good thing is u got "USB CHARGING" feature so jus connect it to ur PC while u r working n charge it...."

  • thanx 4r yr answer.. heard that its battery is not too good.. tell me how much hours does the battery last for an average play music...

  • comment regarding the battery life. I heard battery sucks big time when used as mp3 for just an 1hr.

  • no bro there is no such prob. we all got the whole message.

  • nope bro this is not the case. you can directly transfer pics bigger than 1600*1200.... dont need to use pc at all. it automatically fit the pics to its requirement. try it...transfer ur images to ph mem.

  • already answered many times pls guyz at least read earlier comments first.

  • my dear friend if u read earlier comments u dont have to ask this....discussed earlier many times...ok for u imjus copy pastin a earlier comment: ".......bro s3500 is much better than s3310 first of all s3310 is jus another bar phone whereas s3500 is a premium brushed mettalic slide phone so its more stylish n goodlookin. secondly s3500 screen is bigger than s3310 thirdly n the biggest diffrence in s3310 is u cant install games or 3rd party software through usb but u can install games n 3rd party softwares in s3500 with usb cable through ur pc so u dont need WAP for this. and last but not the least u cant transfer ur pics, songs or ur stuff directly to mem card in s3310 whereas in s3500 u can change default memory settings of bluetooth, wap downloads, camera, camcorder, voice recorder, fm radio etc from phone mem to memory card. for ex: now when u transfer any file through bluetooth or click a pic, or record a radio clip they'll b directly stored in ur mem card. s3500 rockz man cheers :)...."

  • can any1 give me suggestion as to which one to buy between samsung s3310 & s3500 considering music quality and camera as a prime concern...do reply thanx in advance..

  • 1)how to view images full screen which r taken from mobile itself??? 2)how to see next image without coming back to list

  • image which you are viewing must be of higher dimension, your phone i.e. samsung s3500 supports dimension upto 1600 * 1200, files bigger than this dimension can't be viewed. one thing you can do, transfer the image into computer and then with some image editing tool resize the image to the above stated resolution. your problem will be sloved...

  • hey guys operamini which vershion is sapotig 4 s3500, how to install it.

  • Hi all S3500 users!! I've a problem with reading messages in my inbox. The problem is when I open a message in my inbox at first I'm able to read whatever appears on the display screen and when I scroll down it takes me to the end of the message displaying date and time skipping rest of the message body. Any solution to this ?

  • 5130 support zoom at the maximum resolution that is 1200 x 1600. There should be some way in S3500 also try reducing image quality.

  • I dont know my friend that how come you are able to just paste the mobile 9 links and download. I tried this but our dear s3500 gives message 'access denied' each time. And yes I put in all the required //. No idea how yo managed to get your s3500 to go to those links?

  • No its not our ph fault...any other phones also not supports zoom at the maximum resolution...

  • well...i got dis baby a few days back, and trust me at dis price its well wrth it ! nice camera,music player,sleek design,even an impressive mp4 player cum recrdr!! on d technicl front..i wd like to share an info regardin d music player. allthough it supports wma files it however dosnt support any ID TAGS frm the former type of files! it can only show artist/album/album art/genre...etc etc for mp3 format!...so fr people like me who uses their memory(since they r quite less space consuming), its a drawback- you cant see album art or even proper artist info!! yet it can play wma files...d only diffrnce is y wdnt have that final touch fr a perfect handy music player!! s3500 rules myne....

  • Zooming = lower pic quality.... So you better not zoom to prevent quality loss.... And for your information, most camera phones today have no smart zooming feature (something which retains the resolution but the pic quality is comparable to that of lower resolutions). So there is no point in zooming the pic in the first place. Zooming is meaningless unless it is optical zoom. So don't worry about zooming, just get closer to the subject and get the picture in good quality rather than zooming.

  • I cannot zoom camera at 2mp's however i can zoom it at lesser resolutions i.e at 1 .3mp etc. Is this my mobile fault??

  • Well heavy usage do drain battery but remember it has just old Li-Ion 800 mAh where as 5130 has Li-Ion 1020 mAh (BL-5C) and GM200 has Li-Po 1100 mAh quite advance.

  • rotate it through ur pc or use any third party software. video format supported by s3500 is MP4 n 3GP. but use mp4 instead coz it is much better than 3gp. use smsung pc suite converter to convert ur files in these formats or u can try other proffessional converters too like total video converter, xilisoft etc.

The problem is when I open a message in my inbox at first I'm able to read whatever appears on the display screen and when I scroll down it takes me to the end of the message displaying date and time skipping rest of the message body. Any solution to this ?

  • here is ur answer man i dont knw if u have that much of knowledge but in case u have 128kbps mp3 or lower one (compressed) n through radio u r recording 320 kbps mp3... it'll b better than the ealier one. thats why i use regular word coz on most of the sites u'll get 128 kbps mp3's. n even if both r the same mp3's the recorded clip wud be equilant in quality. next time try to argue on facts rather than show ur emotional outburst. n first of all use this phone n ONLY than u r qualified to write reviews here. now till than f*** off.

  • hahahahahah its really funny man...how he is showing his emo outbusrt here....lol grow up man!!!! ohkay so now u r judging my ears....hmmmm let me ask u a question did u read this in ur daily newpaper....lol coz ur typo guy jus live with there theories. not my prob by the way read earlier comments u m00 r*on n see how many guyz writing thanks to me coz i m solvin there problems here... but if anybody write his ign0rance or fake comments here i'll never let him go... i m here to make em right coz in my opinoin its a shame writing fake/ign0rant comment here without using the phone... n wat about u....u never touch or even saw this phone in ur whole life n came here writing reviews!!!!! its shame man....n ign0rants/ fakers like u deserve this attitude only. PS: a piece of advice for u : B PRACTICAL or get the f outta here. ; )

  • one thing is clear, this guy work as a WATCHMAN in this blog highly obsessed with his S3500. "quality of fm recorded clips are even better than ur regular mp3's" how com u get better than wat u r receiving. secondly, his ears r not capable of audio judging. third he is saying that Samsung people r stupid enough to write something against there product in product manual.

  • wat the hell is goin on here this guy jus download a manual n writin CONCLUSIONS here....!!!!!!!!! i mean never touch a phone, never saw it, never use it, doesnt have any practical knowledge n writing reviews upon it!!!!!!!!!!!!! "sick" hehehe....i think thats why in schools/ institutes/ offices they give much emphasis on practicals apart from writtn bookish material....as they say "half knowledge is really dangerous" now i understand the meaning.....lol ; )

  • oh my gosh wat a ign0rant we have here.... dont show us how f*0*0*l u are u jus read somethin n writing ur own conclusions here without any practical use/knowledge...wow!!!!!!! ask users who use this phone u @#$$%$#@ be practical man step out from ur closet n see the world outside dont sit in ur room n live in assumptions. RADIO RECORDING is AWESOME use it first n only than write bout it. do u knw in the manual its also written that mem is expendable upto 8 gb whereas s3500 is expendable upto 16gb. n if by any chance u hav seen nokia 5130 there also its written in the manual that it supports only 2gb card which is not true coz it is also expandable upto 16gb. BE PRACTICAL n check urself first before writin cr*p as i said earlier every user knw it quality of fm recorded clips are even better than ur regular mp3's. cheers ign0rants...lol

  • u want us to believe u not the company manual.

  • i'm not a j*e*r*k u r and this is not a FAKE COMMENT if u own S3500 and is literate then open page no.38 of ur manual it's there.... "The recording feature is developed for voice recording only. The quality of the recording will be much lower than digital media." think before u comment

  • hahahah those good old days but not any more. if u talk bout music than i think u beleive expert views...check this out read the last para bro yup u got it samsung is the one who provide audio processors to apple ipods... need i say more...lol

  • my plesure bro. tk cr

  • Dear vGe%, Mea culpa!!! Yes you are right that I didn't explore much with the middle button. SMS issue also solved. Regards

  • Dear vGe%, Thankx for the solutions !! Phone contact first remedy solves the issue... But on the SMS part,as you mentioned ,if you CLick on middlekey,through which if you pull out the Phonebook,it lists only the numbers stored against your mobile alone right?(my query was to how to access the home number for a SMSing( Anycase thankx again,

  • why does some of my images can't be seen in "MY FILES" (Meaning the files is there but no image) and can't be set as wallpapers

  • dear NEHA pls read these comments of mine they will surely help u: 1) 2009-10-17 20:27 2) 2009-10-13 10:15 u'll find these date n timing on the below/bottom left corner of the comment.

  • hi krp bro its very simple yaar ok first talk bout sms: jus click the middle key to enter receiver number.... browse the contact u wanna sms "through phonebook"... now press the middle key...here u'll find all the numbers u have saved on that contact. jus choose watever (home/office) number u want n send sms....as simple as that. now talk bout how u call em: here u hav 3 options, first: jus press ur right soft key(phonebook) n browse to the contact u wanna call...again jus press the middle key n here u'll got all the numbers saved on that contact... choose watever u want n call secondly u can take help of its smart dialling feature jus dial the first three number n it will show u all the numbers saved on ur phonebook havin those numbers here u'll directly find home/office number. n finally third remedy, which is i think the most popular save numbers seprately like tinna home, tinna off. etc bro it seems the problem is u dont use the d-pad(middle key) more often ;) tk cr

  • Pls pls pls help.... After a week usage i came to the conclusion that its a great phone. Great while watching movies, nice 2mp , great music quality both in headphones and speaker, nice internet experience with operamini....... But but but my mobile's battery goes off very shortly. I have to charge it 2 times a day. Pls help me what shd i do??? Is it possible to put a 1000 or 1200mah battery in it?

  • shame on u man wat a blo00 dy fake u r....yup after readin ur comment i find out u never touch this phone n u start writin conclusions here...wow!!!!!!! ask the users if u dont knw man read my earlier comment fm recording is its highlighted feature. "GREAT FM RECORDING" recorded clips quality even better than regular mp3's.

  • 'ATTENTION' if u want to Record songs from the FM radio this phone is not for u. "The recording feature is developed for voice recording only. The quality of the recording will be much lower than digital media." Source S3500 Manual......... May be to avoid piracy but other phones like GM200 they r not giving any such warning then why samsung?

  • Hi All, In S3500,the Phonebook contact lookup ,shows the default number of a contact i.e the mobile number. Query is how do you call up contact's Home number ? Same problem happens if the Home number is a mobile and if you want to send a SMA to that number? (Basically both the queries are on how to access the secondary numbers for a contact) Thankx in advance,

  • Meghna, If you want real sound which has great BASS TREBLE etc then SE W series is best. SE W series has the best sound quality than any other phones available in India. Even the music playback time is much more in SE phones, The OS is JAVA which rocks.

  • thanks bro yup u can istall hell lot of games n softwares on s3500. i hav 40 games n softwares on my phone. bro i hav tried everything from kd player to walkman p but u knw no 3rd party software can b as good as the default one... all these third party software r really third class n by the way why u want software for music n video player in the first place wen u got awesome music n video player in s3500. u can create as many playlist as u want, u got one click equilizer setting, u got music sorting option like all tracks, recently played, last played, most played, artist, genres, albums etc video player is also great.

  • bro there are two things i wann tell u here: first of all it has 5 bettery bars shown at the upper right end of the fone n wenever its 3 bars dissappears people thought that bettery is drained out but u knw friend its remaining two bars last for lot more than u expect.... they give u much more power than earlier three bars.... secondly bro u hav recently bought this phone... its brand new for u....its ur exploring phase goin on... u r using it more often than one can usually do. most of the time u'll b clickin it to get familier with its features @ this point of time ur bettery will drain fast coz u r using more of it now. so it will take some days wen u start using it moderately. i remember wen i bought this phone at least for a week i used it extensively .... i ws exploring all of its awesome functions.

  • my dear renshru u dont have to ask others buddy jus check out the specs n decide wat u want(coz both the phones have diff specs) rather than allow others to decide which one is the best for u.... first of all take the look at pics of both the phone n decide wat u want... the one advantage here bout s3500 is its premium brushed mettalic look (i hate plastic slide phones) s3500 looks much costlier/luxurious. but if u like colourfull phone than go for m2710. s3500 is more sleek...width:14.3mm m2710 : 16mm s3500 has 1 crore 60 lakh colours whereas m2710 has jus 256 thousand colours(really big diffrence....62 time more colours). s3500 screen is big cam of s3500 is much better than the other... infact the best cam in its price segment. in short m2710 is jus a music phone whereas s3500 is a allrounder phone: awesome looks + awesome specs + awesome music + awesome cam+ awesome camcorder + awesome features.(read its great features in earlier comments) one advantage here with m2710 is u'll get 3.5mm jack with it... although its not a big deal u can anytime buy a 3.5mm adapter @ as low as Rs 50. choice is yours buddy.

  • on 9th october i bought samsung s3500i. A nice phone with a affordable price BDT 8600(Appox 86 euro). Excellent performance, crystal clear sound, super duper picture by 2mp camera.

  • Please someone tell me how's Radio(FM) reception (on earphone)? Can we use EquiliZers or any other enhancement in radio?

  • How do i set a ringtone to my sms? Because i have tried endless time to no avail.

  • ofcourse bro u can set any song as sms tone... yup bro i can assure u i m using 4gb mem card n mine is full with 5 movies n hell lot of songs but s3500 never slows down or lag... the speed of ui is absolutely awesome.

  • Thanks boss for the quick reply. One more question, can i set the message tone to one of my MP3 songs. I'm a type of person who needs a long ringtone to catch my attention. Thanks, i'm also limiting my choice between with this phone and the xpress music 5220. I just don't like with nokia is when it gets old and memory got full it hangs!! and lag. That is why whenever i will buy a phone i only choose between samsung and SE cause their system are fast even with a large amount of memory consumption

  • You can check the Battery level capacity by doing this!!! *#9998*228# Yesterday, i used this method and i come to know that it has 26 percent of battery remaining!!! In main screen it shows 2 bars... At that time power cut... In our city when current goes off it will come after 2 hours.. I bored and played my favourite songs in my mobile for two hours in full speaker sound!!! It doesn't depleted!!! After 2 hours I checked it once again... it also have 6 percent of battery remaining!!!!This happens yesterday morning,but i recharged the mobile at night only, mean i get messages, calls and all!!!! Dont think that when the battery bars is two or below, you battery capacity is fully depleted!!!! The last three bars give more worktime than the first two!!!! HOPE IT WILL HELP!!!! REGARDS!!!! BOSS!!!!

  • Nokia 5310 noway compared to s3500, because nokia doesnt that must feature to compare with... SO i repeating... s3500 has 2.2 inch screen whereas 5130 has 2 inch screen =5130 is again a boring bar phone but s3500 is a metallic finished slide phone(even look costlier) -s3500 has 1 crore 60 lakh colours whereas 5130 has 256 thousand colours( n this is a big difference) so again in terms of screen n display s3500 wins -5130 cam is really poor on the other hand s3500 cam quality is excellent. -in 5130 it takes a lot of time to process photos after u click whereas in case of s3500 jus click n done. -5130 video camera comes with the resolution of 176x144 by far the worse i've ever encountered despite of the 2 megapixel camera which suppose to give double the resolution of the current one, but s3500 video cam resolution is almost double the 5130's that is....320*240 - another big difference is 5130 supports qcif video recording wheras s3500 supports qvga. qvga is much better than qcif(to know more google it) so in terms of cam also s3500 wins -now talk about music -the sound produced by 5130 is crisp and clear at the lowest volume,..but as it arisen (volume increase) it gets blur(not enough bass and treble) -the speaker volume is very low coz there is no stereo loudspeakers. n s3500 music player is shockingly loud n clear -headfones available with both the phones are average. -battery backup is almost same. -another big difference is 5130 gets "hang" when you have too much stuf going on the phone,..like putting all of the shortcut buttons in to the "go to" button (it really hangs) on the contrary s3500 never hangs or slow down. its speed is awesome, -5130 doesn't hv contrast adjuster and light sensor. which depletes the battery faster. whereas in s3500 u can change contrast and brightness according to ur choice. -another intresting feature u'll find in s3500 is menu transition effect....if u hav seen latest aamir khan samsung ad than u must know wat i m talking. wenever u press any button screen slides from right to left looks really awesome. -there is no smart dialling in 5130 which u get in s3500 -No Flight mode in 5130 u'll get it in s3500 -in s3500 u can lock ur messages or phone book or ur stuff(videos, pics, songs, softwares e.t.c) or memo or calender or task or call log watever u want this feature is inbuilt in it, u can record fm n there is no limit n quality is crystal clear, u can record calls n the other person is not going to hear any annoying beeps, through bluetooth u can brows n download every files of other phones without their consent u cant find these features in 5130 (remember i m talking about "ONLY INBUILT" features which came along the phone) Other important inbuilt features of s3500 are -MOBILE TRACKER 2.0 : everybody knows about it. -BLUETOOTH MESSENGER -FAKE CALL: Fake call simulates the phone ringing, allowing you to escape uncomfortable and potentially dangerous situations by pretending you need to take a call. u dont find these in 5130... When come to battery i got about 4 days.. Eventhough i hear 2 hours to 3 hours of music, playing videos and games for sometime, and moderate phone use and most of the time i put my phone in vibration, daily i got more than 50 messages while in vibration mode!!!!!.... When you bought the phone, put the phone for maximum 8 hours charge without disturbing it!!! If you do so, the battery life is much more like me!!! so if u want a hot lookin ALLROUNDER phone then go for s3500. now u have to decide wat u want!!!!!!! Dont confuse with this Nokia fetish users.... Because they are posting the fake comments only and making the confusion for new persons who have the thought of buying Samsung s3500... Consider them as fools and dont bother about their opinions... Mentioned Features are 100% true. Even can't declined by Nokia Users!!!! But the Decision is yours!!! Regards, BOSS!!!!

  • I recently brought this phone, liked all the features expect the battery, has to be recharged everyday for normal usage, does anybody else has this issue

  • 5130 xpress music is better than s3500. Because the sound is loud and clean of 5130 than s3500. This mobile gives long battery back up than s3500. I suggest you to buy 5130 instead of s3500.

  • TO BLOCK CALLS!!!!!! MENU - SETTINGS - APPLICATION SETTINGS - CALL - ALL CALLS - AUTO REJECT.... here u'll find two options Auto reject & Reject list...make a list of those people whose calls u want to block...then go into auto reject option n "ON" it(by clicking the right navigation key)...now save it(left soft key).....all those persons u save in that block list cant call u now..... Hope it will help!!! REGARDS!!! BOSS!!!!

  • may i know weather i can install new softwares in my samsung s3500

  • bro i dont knw why u r writin all this.... i hav already told u sendin multiple files through bluetooth is jus fun in s3500... no need to do any settings man... read here cud u find anyone else writin this???? n by the way i forget to mention another great thing bout its bluetooth.... "when you connect through Bluetooth to any other device you can take a control of that phone as all files and folders of other connected phone are displayed on S3500. You can take whichever files you want without bothering other person." u can actually saw all those files saved on other phones mem and card in ur s3500 n u can take watever file u want. if u really use it why dont u write anythin bout it... as i said bluetooth is its one of the greatest feature.

  • both phones music player are great by the way 5130 is jus a music phone n nothin else n at the same price s3500 is a allrounder phone music player is as great as the other but in terms of looks, sleek design, colours, resolution, tft lcd screen, camera, camcorder, n all those features i hav written below s3500 simply rulezzzzzzzzz. much better than any other phone. jus compare the specs

  • which one sound is better. nokia 5130 or samsung s3500. please quickly reply.......

  • Thnx everybody whoever convinced me to buy this phone. Really its a very nice phone. Camera takes aowsome pics even in 2mp. And what to say about its music player and earphones. Earphones sound output is great, i can bet better than nokias musicxpress. i bought it at Rs5230 4m mobilestore. A 4gb card at 375rs. I should suggest everyone to buy this whose budget is upto rs 8000 because phones till rs 8000 can't match it.

  • please gsmarena, is it possible for you to give complete review for samsung s3500??? so that i can decide to buy or not.

  • Maybe... but i marked multiple files and sent them all in a go.. the problem i faced was that the phone only receives the first file each time. i even tried pairing it but of no use.. well i might have gone wrong somewhere... but i never faced such problems when i paired it with my friends 5130. you can send and receive multiple files without confirmation. do suggest me the correct BT settings for this phone.

  • thanks neha n welcome to the s3500 family cheers

  • bro i dont knw if u really used s3500 coz its bluetooth sharing is really very fast very much better than many nokia phones i tested, n by the way another reason for my doubt is u said u sent single file wheras s3500 can send multiple files at same time @ great speed i myself sent more than 20-25(each around 5mb) songs in a go. u can send as many file as u can at the same time. secondly another great thing bout s3500 is unlike nokia all ur files will be directly saved in their corresponding folder that means songs in music folder... pics in images folders, softwares in other file folders automatically u dont have to transfer them to their folders... moreover u can directly save ur files to ur mem card through bluetooth.... bro u press the wrong button infact bluetooth is one of its grestest feature.

  • Thnx everybody whoever convinced me to buy this phone. Really its a very nice phone. Camera takes aowsome pics even in 2mp. And what to say about its music player and earphones.

  • Hi... was playing with my uncle's S3500 till now... I have to amit that i'm much impressed by the audio quality through the speakers... I've compared it with my LG GM200. transferred some of my alt metal collection onto it and played them both simultaneouslt. I was surprised to see that the output was very high. only a step behind GM200 and almost twice as loud as N5130. the clarity is also good for a mono speakers though the instrumentals in GM200 is a bit more distinctive... the other thing i've observed was that even at high volumes, there was hardly any distortion or cracking of sounds... only when compared to GM200, that this phone is trailing by a small step. If i haven't compared with mine, then I wouldn't even know the difference. But frankly, i'm a bit disappointed with the bluetooth... I only get half the speed when transferring files from my phone as compared to nokia. Is there any way to make it even faster? pairing didn't do much help. and i could not multiple files at once. only the first file was received... Any advice?

  • yes ofcourse bro by default u got netfront browser v3.4 or u can install opera mini too.

  • i m planning to buy samsung s3500...the most sensible review i read out till now..its help me to figure out the phone..but it would be better if u also mention benefits of phone. and things like music quality ,battery backup

  • no buddy. apart from the handset the other accessories comes along the phone are: 1) battery 2) Travel adapter 3) stereo headset 4) usb data cable 5) samsung pc studio CD 6) manual 7) warranty card

  • dear jay in terms of audio quality both are great, battery: both satisfactory, s3500 call clearity is really awesome but if u talk bout looks, sleek design, colours, resolution, tft lcd screen, camera, camcorder, n all those features i hav written below s3500 simply rockzzzzzz

  • hi guys.... i do have this phone n am also a fan of this lyk u all... well i have query about it.. 1. i have read a lot on the web aout its feature of document viewer, does it actually have it 2. is there any way to store msgs directly to phone memory rather than to sim memory... coz each time i have to move msg to phone... well thnx in advance n keep rocking with S3500...

  • Im going to buy this phone. But somebody pls tell after its price reduction to Rs5200 does pc suite from the box has been removed?? One retailer told me that he will not give me pc suite at this price. At rs5400 other retailer is giving it. What should i do? Has someone bought it at rs5200 along with pc suite?? Pls pls reply fast.

  • Thanks bro, u certainly convinced me. I have decided to buy the s3500 tomorrow itself. Anyone reading this forum...the Samsung s3500 rocks....
