Samsung S5350 Shark - User Reviews

  • this phone was an experiment in design

  • actually i am using the phone past 6 years.its look and usage very good.but i cant buy the full body of this phone.any body having good condition give me a good price.

  • Also, it is not possible to add SSL/TLL certificates manually. If a certificate gets deleted by somehow, you can not restore it or add a new one. I am facing this problem since 19 October 2014. (File size for emailing should be minimum 10MB.) I still love this model.

  • Actually, this mobile was made for those who are much more interested in the Internet. Everything of it was good; except not good back cover, lack of torch light, gets hanged while writing in Opera Mini, can't write Bengali and Hindi, cannot save all type of files into the memory card, can not write IPAs everywhere, limited IPA, headphone problem, unable to send email more than 5MB file etc. But the phone wasn't bad at all. Afterall, I love this mobile.

  • Realy nice phone as per other phone but battery only in mobile shop after ded battery

  • yes buddy u r absolutely right. I have been using it for 2 years. After 1 year using it got a critical software problem. It switches off automatically. The backlight glows on whole day until i remove the battery and again switches on it. I went to customer care several times but all in vain. Most keypads including the volume key sat down. Moreover the backcover got so loose that it slides any time. The two layered screen of the mobile has been covered with dust though i use it sincierly.

  • There is some problem in video format. A no. of video formats are not supporting. So whenever u r downloading video or sharing video using bluetooth be sure that the video format should be of 3GP type format.

  • Front camera is only activating during Video Call otherwise the mobile recognize a code no. by virtue of which we can only test whether the front camera is working properly or not. Otherwise there is no use of its front camera. We cannot take photo or record video using front VGA Camera.

  • this is important info. Any problem mail [email protected] connect your samsung s5350 and all to pc for net surfing . Connecting to Internet via 3G GPRS using Windows Dial-up connection Your 3G GPRS phone can be connected to Internet using Windows Dial-up Connection without the need of proprietary Samsung PC Studio, Nokia PC Suite, etc. Moreover these softwares are buggy and resource hungry. The following steps will guide you to configure your 3G GPRS phone to connect the Internet using Windows Dial-up Connection program. This is also applicable to normal 2G GPRS phones. First, ensure the following are OK (positive). 1. Your GRPS phone can work as a mobile modem. 2. Your internet / data / GPRS account is active, and you can browse Internet on your phone. Second, connect your mobile phone to your computer, and install the necessary drivers. Tip: If you travel a lot, or connect to multiple computers, then it is recommended to carry the driver in the Memory card of your phone, and remember to take the SD card adapter. The next procedure is to add Modem Initialization String In the Control Panel, Select Phone and Modem Options. (If you use Vista or Windows 7 theme, then it will be Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Phone and Modems Options) The Phone and Modems Options dialog appears as shown in the figure below. (You may need to enter your Phone number to access this dialog screen for the first time). Select your mobile modem and click Properties. The Mobile modem properties dialog will appear as shows below. In the General tab, as shown in the figure above, click on Change Settings and provide administrator or power user credentials. Then select the Advanced tab, and enter the Extra initialization commands. For BSNL 3G network, it shall be "AT +CGDCONT=1,"IP","bsnlnet", Enter this string and click on OK, and close the modem properties. In most cases, "AT +CGDCONT=1,"IP","[AP Name]" string would work, where [AP Name] is the AP Name of your service provider. Please check with your service provided for the AP Name and configuration. The next step is, to create a dial-up connection using the mobile modem, follow these steps From the Control Panel, select Network and Sharing Center -> Set up a connection or network . Depending upon the Windows version and theme settings, you can configure this using Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> Network and Sharing Center - > Set up a connection or network The Set up a Connection or Network dialog box appears as shown in the figure below. Choose Setup up a dial-up connection and click Next In the dialog screen for it prompts, Which modem do you want to use? Select your mobile modem. (Samsung Mobile modem, in my case). Click Next In the Type the information from your ISP dialog box, type the dial-up number as provided by your service provider. BSNL uses *99# or *99***1# as dial-up number. Click Connect. Your mobile will now connect to Internet, and enjoy browsing. With my BSNL 3G connection in Chennai, India, I get usually around 2 Mbps connection speed to Internet (not just to ISP end), and sometimes 3 Mbps. To Disconnect subsequent connections, right click on Dial-Up icon and select Disconnect. In any case, subsequent Connection and Disconnection options can be made from Control Panel -> Manage Network Connections as shown in the figure below. You can even create a Shortcut for the Dial-Up icon to the desktop and access it. Events that lead to this post - I had a hard time connecting my new Samsung Metro 3G S5350 mobile phone using Samsung New PC Studio software. I tried two versions of the New PC Studio software (One that came with the Mobile package and the latest from their support site). The Samsung Technical Support was really incompetent and threw the ball into the service provider�s court. Ah! Samsung Technical Support .

  • how can we access front camera

  • Its a nice phone.I am using it for last 4 month.Camera is too good.Photo & video uploading features are awesome.

  • I bought the phone Saturday 24/09/2011. Did my first ever video call tghe next day. The phone build is sturdy and solid. I can see the phone was designed to last for a long time. Response time for functions are good. Phone also charges from usb cable. Also picked up my ovi music for media transfere from your pc. Windows media player also have no problem with phone, either as mass storage or media player mode. The phone feels solid in the hand. The buttons are well defined in a row, but not as individuals. The screan is clear and bright as long as you look directly at it. The normal price for this phone is currently R1300 in SA. If you look around you can pick it up for R400. For the US people it is $250 and i paid $52 for mine, brand new. I recon it is end off line. But a great phone in every way.

  • Is this phone available now? I wants to buy it. Please answer

  • Excellent phone. I have been using it for almost 18 months now, without even a flaw. Really works great with great HSDPA speeds with my BSNL-3G connection. I'v recorded upto 3.5mbps speed with this. Camera is fairly good and the audio quality is awesome, specially with ROCK. The bundled earphones are very good, IFF THEY FIT INTO YOUR EARS. I got the Samsung INEarplugs for my use as the regular earphones slipped out frequently. Very good battery backup, last around two days on regular internet+music usage. One thing worth mentioning, and many still won't be knowing about this, is that this phone can use the Camera key for TASK SWITCHING(limited multitasking). This phone's JVM can run upto 3 Java Apps at a time Along with regular NF browser, Music player, native messaging. you can use the camera key to switch between the running apps.Goto phone settings>>camera key. the only con is that the Inbox memory is too low (only 200 messages in inbox!!!)

  • 3 Big Questions::: 1)Can this phone be connected to PC as a Modem? 2)What is the message storage?Can the messages be stored on the memory card? 3)Is multitasking possible? Thanx in advance...

  • Using the set for one month now.Here are the feedback till now, Pros: Camera is very good for daylight shoots.Good quality pictures. Comparatively good video recording. Good battery.Over 4 hours definite. Cons: Although picture quality is extremely good,the camera speed is very slow.Only good for completely stationary objects.Slight movement will ruin the picture. Worst bluetooth connection ever seen on any mobile till date.Utterly useless. Samsung PC suite is also the worst of the lot.Very user unfriendly.

  • it is very beautyful phone and low price in india 3g phone. camera is very creatively in this phone. sound is not loudly but 3d sound is very creatively.3g call is good live tv is eassily show.but drawback in this phone is 4way key is not light.bluethooth is very very slow in any handset.In this phone song,video,are receve is very slow in other phone because bluethooth is slow but copy good option in this phone.

  • On phone go to menu>settings>connections and define a new connection using access point bsnlnet. After installing pc studio, connect phone using usb cable. select 'pc studio' on the phone. Now if PC studio starts on your pc, then just close it. Go to control panel>network. Then create new dialup network. Select modem - Samsung modem. Now name your connection to 'BSNL' (anything is Ok). Keep blank for userid and password. Save it and keep link on desktop, and double click on the BSNL icon. That should connect you. Sometimes it fails, retry once or twice it will connect at 3.6mbps.

  • Please tell me how to install Skpe for above phone

  • can i install themes on it

  • yes u can easily install apps,just go to getjar.com for apps,wap.in for games,though the downloaded softwares are in memory card the phone loads it into phone memory.

  • Yes, the camera is auto-focus. It can focus well even as close as about 6 inches. Pictures come out great in low light if night-mode is used. Just need a steady hand to prevent blurs. In summary, an amazing camera at this price! I'm seeing better pictures than the Nokia C5 which has a flash.

  • its a very nice phone but the cd does not install in my laptop or pc

  • Ive been using this phone for the past 4 months. I really like this phone. To be true there r som negative features like call recording not possible, message inbox storage only 200, no search feature for files, bluetooth slow, no light for navigation keys etc. but these r minor problems n wont affect ur phone usage in anyway. You can change the setting n make the camera key into a 'switch' key. after that you can access messages, music, applications etc in between ur calls. All in all i would recommend this phone to everyone who wants 3g feature within a budget of 6000. The real negative of this phone is that the signal reception is not that good. it is not as great as nokia phones.

  • cant belive what MORRON design this phone without LIGHT for navigation and 4 more buton.1 time got phone who is not nokia and disapointed.such a little thing for big mistake.this is my 1st notification after 1 turning on. thats why NOKIA is NOKIA!!!

  • Streaming music files to a Bluetooth headphone is not there. My Bluetooth headphone (BH08) works fine with Motorola Rizr phone and I can listen to music non-stop for hours on. The same headphone BH08 also works fine with my Bluetooth enabled PC for receiving streamed music. Only with this instrument, it is not possible to use the headset for listening to music. However, it will work for receiving voice calls. Have any one of you encountered this ? Is there any solution ? Any one had purchased samsung's stereo headphone set ? Will that work with this phone for listening to streamed music via bluetooth ? - Ramesh / India

  • Same problem When I type * # 1234 # I see that my version of firmware in the phone S5350XFJA3, I wore it to an authorized service that flashes with the new software because I saw the www.samfirmware.com that there is a newer firmware, but I was told to an authorized service that the firmware is not for our market and they can not throw it, and they sent me to another ovlaceni service with words that they have the parts there and it's hardware. I typed * 2767 * 3855 # returned to the factory settings but not working, and give me a call when often the sound off the ear and not hear the caller. Does anyone any suggestions how to solve this problem? And if I'd try it flashes, that is. Would I then lose the warranty! Can someone give instructions for how it flashes NEW SAMSUNG PC Studio does not give me the possibility of update software on the phone or waiting to appear later version of software for the phone?

  • Come to me to throw it away, because a little bit so it is disconnected while talking to or Watch the dispej connection is active but you do not hear caller, sometimes as soon as you are off the light in the display, the connection is interrupted.

  • Thanks. But how samsung selected such a design, because that is a very basic needed for a MOBILE. Very bad.

  • Hi Murali, Yes, you are right. U can't open the msg inbox when you are on call. There is fix for this bug. Make the camera key as switch. So when u r on call, u can go to message, music, browser and games n more option. For 3.2Mp the zoom is not avali. Its the design and same happens in many mobile(sony). Thanks.

  • Hi every one, I had a poor experience with this phone. i bought this in india. The Drawbacks in this phone are as follows., 1.Assuming that u have an airtel Prepaid Mobile Connection. Try calling to a number A and talk for a min. Disconnect the call, While doing that, Immediately try calling another number B.By that time, there would be a message from airtel displaying the callcost to A,at that time try to End the call.... I BET U CAN NEVER DISCONNECT call B UNLESS THE CALL GETS CONNECTED!! THE PHONE HANGS FOR A WHILE!! 2.U can never read a message while u r on a call. I even tried with the headsets.. u can never open ur inbox, or u can never do the call record option. 3.Camera is not upto the mark. No zoom available in 3.2 mp mode and u can never get a clear image. daylight capture is okay. At last, I rate 3/10 :(

  • @ Anonymous as the keys are Steel like the back cover so there is no keypad light for navigation, call/end call keys and right/left keys. Its manufacture that way ...

  • @ Nitin ... Bettery backup is just great ....

  • @Hanna In India Its 4990/- @Ezone. check it out

  • dude this one was released in March 2010 then how could u be using it for the last one year.

  • dude first 2 bars of the battery last for long but then the other 3 vanishes very fast........is it same with you...??

  • dude u have given its 100% correct features.

  • i have this mobile from last 1 year & i must say this is the good one piece to bye its battery also works for long hrs even if we listen music & if it is kept standby it works at least for two to three days....

  • yaar please tell me the battery backup with normal use..

  • boss you can buy its a suberb phn

  • Thanks for reply. It works. In my handset, there is no keypad light for navigation, call/end call keys and right/left keys. Is anyone facing the prob? Or the design itself is the same?

  • should i buy this mobile phone or not please reply me experts

  • I bought this mobile yesterday only and here is its quick review: 1. camera quality is awsome. 2. headphone quality is average but if a good qaulity headphone is attached then it will rock. 3. internet on mobile is truly very very fast. 4. connectivity with pc for internet is quite easy with the pc suite included in the box. 5. really missing 3.5 mm jack. 6. messaging is not satisfactory because of the operating system...quite slower.

  • You can mute an incoming call by long-pressing any of the +/- keys.

  • is it possible to connect samsung s5350 to computer and use internet? If yes then tell me which pc suite to use? And even tell me what is the procedure to connect mobile to pc.

  • Just press volume side side key for a while to Silent the incoming calls...........

  • I'm using this mobile for past 1 month. This handset is good. It also lacks in some features for me. Some main issues are, 1.There is no way to put mobile in silent during an incoming call. I tired to use right side button. But it ends in rejecting d incoming call(user busy). 2.There is no background light for call/end-call keys and navigation keys. If anyone has a solution for this means do reply. Thanks in advance.

  • hi everyone, This is a very good mobile all round. I am using this model for 4 months. Their are some drawbacks but compare to its features thats nothing. For using customised headset you need to buy a 3.5mm samsung pin converter which is around Rs250. Memory card acess is very fast even upto 16gb. To use front camera for checking type *#0*# and select the 8th option. Rear camera quality is very good in bright light,better than sony or nokia. I recommend everyone to buy this mobile,Best value for money.

  • i requested to you what which mobile am i buying? i want some features in the mobile which am i buying the features are 3g, more internal memory, camera quality high, battery back up full,if video calling is possible and easy to use the cost is 4000 to 7000 rs/- so please denote mobiles which suitable the features

  • thanks for giving information about s5350metro mobile and i'm also think as your like before buying mobile so now i decided to don,t buy this mobile so i requested to you what which mobile am i buying? i want some features in the mobile which am i buying the features are 3g, more internal memory, camera quality high, battery back up full,if video calling is possible and easy to use the cost is 4000 to 7000 rs/- so please denote mobiles which suitable the features

  • i use samsung s5350 and best mobile for internet

  • how can i get net connection to my computer. os error is seeing . pls reply

  • cant use front camera . only working in 3g network, when video callis activated

  • i cant get internet connection to my pc. i installed pc suit $ settings

  • todays price is rs 6000

  • Then what should I choose?

  • Sorry, 5350 is very basic. not for mobile TV

  • My Experience with Samsunng S5350 Shark (Metro3g) For the past 2 years, I was using NOKIA xpress music 5220, The only drawback is, it is not a 3g enabled phone. I am using BSNL connection and they are providing 3G services here. Hence i was in search of affordable 3g mobile. I am not interested in China brands as their quality and features are very mediocre. After searching the net & enquring some shops near by i short listed 2 models. Samsung Shark s5350 (Metro 3G in India) and Sony Ericssion Naite.The Samsung S5350 is selling for 5850/- and Naite for Rs.5800/-. After reading the reviews and speciation I decided to go for samsung. Before using My current Nokia phone, I was using Samsung J210 which is very basic & buggy model. So using it for 3 months i exchanged with Nokia 5220 XM. I thought that this latest 3G model from samsung may give me different experience compare to my old J210. But after a long periods of 2 years, this Shark 3G hasn't changed much except in looks, inclusion of 3G,slight UI changes & 3.1 MP. The user interface is sames as the Samsung U800 Soul which released in July 2008. Some limitations of samsung phones UI are still there. I am very much regret for going for this model. Here is my experience Phone :- One of the major reason for choosing this Samsung model is its look which will attract anybody. It is also well build. Hardware limitations:- 1. Using Samsung proprietary port for charging, Data transfer & music. All these share only one port. 2. The back metallic cover is easy to open. may get loose in frequent usage. 3. Mem card slot is under the back cover. Need to remove the cover to insert and remove the card 4. To insert the Sim card you need to remove the battery first which will erase all the call history. 5. The battery is only 900mH. So battery backup will be less. 6. No protection for camera lens 7. No "Cancel/Clear" key which is very commen in samsung phones 8. Though keypad is looking great but typing is quite hard. Hence composing a long mail will be a pain taking task. OS:- Compare to nokia, Samsung OS is very basic and not improved much since my last model. (I am not talking about Touch phones). Samsungs proprietary OS had many limitations. But nokia phones are running Symbian OS which is very easy and can handle files and folders just like we are using in a PC. Nokia models will fully support memory card & data. In Samsung phones you can't install/access a game or an application directly in memory card.It will installed only in your phone memory which is very limited. Another hitch here is these java games & applications should be signed to be get installed. Software (OS) limitations 1. No active standby option (You cant views task/schedules/appointments in standby screen) 2. No searching in folders (In nokia open a folder and just type first letter of file it will list all files/music begin with that word) 3. Menu icons shown cannot be customise or rearrange 4. No Notepad (You can't make any notes and save as file) 5. No Go to menu option. 6. No option to modify Right & Left selection key shortcuts 7. No voice recognation feature. 8. Slow UI. 9. If we we remove the mem card the the default memory for saving photos and file will be automatically chage to phone memory. And after putting mem card back we manually need to change this to mem card in phone settings which is very irritating. 10. No Call recording feature. 12. Message capacity is only 200 14. Internet browser is very sluggish MUSIC 1. If a song Opened direcly from from a folder. The music player won't run in a background mode. 2. The music player is very basic. It doesn't have graphic equliser. 3. The lack of search facility in folder will surely irritate anybody.Though it can handle 16 GB card . search for particular song name in a folder containing hundreds of songs will be a hercullen task. 3. Song information will display in 3 tab screens 4.If songs are not properly tagged, Browsing thru various catagories in music player like Artists,Albums,Genres will show false results & names. Camera 1. Thouch it had 3.2MP Camera. Night & dim light photos are horrible. 2. Zooming is possible only in VGA mode (640x480 res.) 3. Video recording only in QVGA mode which is very basic. 4. No menu for using Front Camera. Can't take photos using front cam. 4. Lack of 3.5 jack is very disappinting. Only samsung earhones will be compatable. Organiser:- 1. Though it can handle all the events. But this won't display in standby screen, or below the calander. SO you should click inside the particular date in the calander to see the each events/schedules. There is a limit of 100 events in each catogory. Games & Applications:- 1. All the pre installed games are demo version. 2. Installing games need to be signed and will consume phone memory. 3. You can't install games above 1mb. 3. No external Theme support (Though You can create your own themes). 4. No currency converter. I request all the Nokia/Samsung users not to go for this Samsung Metro 3g

  • Hi All, Today on 17-07-2010 I had broth this cell phone. In a shop 1st samsung s5350 camera was not working. On second we fill electric shock when I was connected with USB trough computer & charging. I Suggest Don't go for samsung. I observed each and every handset of samsung having some kind of fault. Nokia,Motorola is batter then samsung.

  • Great phone, Professional Finishing. Good work :-)

  • I experienced very slow speed when transferring data via blue tooth and also mobile tracker gets activated and sends messages to the configured number whenever the phone is switched off and gets switched on. Any one experienced the same problem.

  • A very good phone.superb value for money.i am using this phone n there has been no prob. so far.a must buy

  • yes u can browse from dataport cable.

  • Great phone. Good work Samsung.

  • Hey Dude, I am an "IT Head" in Wipro & i think you dont know the definition of the word "technical". Kid you need to grow up.

  • I've been using this phone for 2 months.No complains at all.You can't get a phone with HSDPA 3.6 mbps ,video calling, document viewer, 3.15 MP autofocus camera, usb charging function at such a low cost.Opera mini 5 and youtube (mobile version) work great on this phone.Only technically illiterate person can curse Samsung for such an awesome product.Good work Samsung.Keep it up.

  • This kind of phone's should be launched in Bihar & village areas, its a pathetic phone not even worth 2 grans. I think Aamir Khan should not be the Brand ambassador for Samsung anymore. They should keep my building watchman. Oh gosh!!! I have never seen such a phone in my life.

  • I was very excited to get this handset as my friend had suggested this hndset to me, but the camera is so crap. The picture quality is disgusting, its not worth 3.2 megapixel. Samsung shold write on the box it is 1.2 Megapixel camera. The phone should not be called Shark it's performance is poor than snail.

  • The phone hangs a lot and also it is not at all user friendly

  • hi, as comparing to other handset with this range this is chip and best. i am using this from 20 days . i dont find any problem . battery backup is good. camera is also very good. nice color adjustment. overall you can believe on that. for non user don't give wrong comment. at first use it then write your comment. understand.

  • Hi Could anyone tell me if the battery cover on this mobile phone is really as bad as is mentioned in one of the posts?

  • How much resolution does its front camera has? Is it a VGA? QVGA? or CIF camera?

  • Its software / processor is very slow. First time i tried a handset which is other than NOKIA and my experience is not good. It takes more time for its any function.

  • yes you can use this handset as modem but speed may displeased you.

  • I had purchased this mobile 1 month ago. I am not happy with the handset, I network receiption is very poor. Battry backup is also very poor. only good is its slim size. I shall never buy or suggest to by a Samsung handset.

  • Can I use S5350 as USB modem, does it allow surfing with PC

  • your review is very good..i am a nokia user ..i ma planing to go samsung metro..but i refused.thanks

  • If you want all the features in this price you will not get. But you should go for less feature mobile of other brand and i promiss you will get more suttisfection. If you purcahse this Handset you will fill unsatisfied with its perfprmance and you will remember me.

  • This is a cheapest handset with thease all facility available tn this handset. Its battery backup is not as good as mentioned by company. Camera is also not so good. Network receiption is very bad. I would like to say this is cheap handset with cheap poformace. I have purchased the handset and it was a wrong desision.

  • Its really Very Nice Mobile, I Just Waited So Long Time, I bought this phone Two Days Back From Sangeetha Tumkur,It Is Such A Cheap 3G Mobile, Very Clear TFT Display, Really Am Happy -Saleem Sulthan Z A, Tumkur

  • Hi, Last week only i bought this. I cant use it as modem for my laptop. Please tell me how to do this. i have samsung PC suite with me. pls reply me. thanks in advance.

  • The only drawback is you cant record the live calls and during the call you can't access the main menu as it doesn't give such option.

  • Hey I bought this phone last week. Its really amazing and full paisa wasool mobile. It has 3.2 M camera ( supports zoom till 2MP), 3G with front camera and a GPS system( google maps). sound quality is good ( good quality headsets recommended) and good battery life. Go for this if your range is 6K. This phone just lacks flash light for night mode camera. Any way photos in night mode are better than nokia.

  • hey guys.. this is awesome mobile>>> i like it very much!!

  • where can i get themes for this phone?

  • i had to reply to your views here... wow... crisp and clear... though i love the looks of this phone; i hate samsung OS and propietery support for headphones... imagine what happens if the port is damaged?? i will never buy a mid or high end samsung phone (i m using E1085f and its the best in its class)

  • got my hands on this one... really liked this phone... but miss LED flash and a good operating system

  • i am planning to buy a phone but i want to about this phone that..can this phone support youtube video streaming or any other online videos. please reply soon.

  • samsung does nt have control over its dealers to run its business as some dealers are slling samsung metro with higher price eg, s-5350 for rs.6600 where as some are selling it for rs. 5800. tis unscrupulous dealing brought its reputation down . moreover its features are as per stated. it should callback all s-5350 and provide the customer with new upgraded featured metro 3g.or lose the goodwill and be doomed.

  • To test its LCD like front camera and sound...dial *#0*#

  • samsung is very 3rd class phone thos models r very f ck i need only ur review so dont purchse samsung.....................

  • Hey ssbhat: Thx for such detailed review. I just wanted to Buy samsung for its Inbox password lock/ file lock facility. Which Is really good thing. Sonyericsson phones are gr8 in terms of UI,camera and sound quality all but doesnt offer Inbox password lock facility. N Nokia is always all BETTER only..but Not BEST..camera dosent offer that quality..Sound quality is OK.. But now will go for nokia c5 (after release) only which is offering alot features in bit higher price than samsung. Personally I dont have much craze for touch phones for now.

  • this is a very good phone i bought it 1 month ago . it is a good phone with no problem and i like this phone

  • very good mobile overall. Battery very good. Headset quality after changing to plug type is awsome. Camera clarity at day is super.

  • My Experience with Metro :- For the past 2 years, I was using NOKIA xpress music 5220, The only drawback is, it is not a 3g enabled phone. I am using BSNL connection and they are providing 3G services here. Hence i was in search of affordable 3g mobile. I am not interested in China brands as their quality and features are very mediocre. After searching the net & enquring some shops near by i short listed 2 models. Samsung Shark s5350 (Metro 3G in India) and Sony Ericssion Naite.The Samsung S5350 is selling for 5850/- and Naite for Rs.5800/-. After reading the reviews and speciation I decided to go for samsung. Before using My current Nokia phone, I was using Samsung J210 which is very basic & buggy model. So after using it for 3 months i exchanged with Nokia 5220 XM. I thought that this latest model from samsung may give me different experience compare to my old J210. But after a long periods of 2 years, this Shark 3G hasn't changed much except in looks, inclusion of 3G,slight UI changes & 3.1 MP. The user interface is the sames as the Samsung U800 Soul which released in July 2008 Some limitations which samsung phones UI are still there. I am very much regret for going for this model. Here is my experience Phone :- One of the major reason for choosing this Samsung model is its look which will attract anybody. It is also well build. Hardware limitations:- 1. Using Samsung proprietary port for charging, Data transfer & music. All these share only one port. 2. The back metallic cover is easy to open. may get loose in frequent usage. 3. Mem card slot is under the back cover. Need to remove the cover to insert and remove the card 4. To insert the Sim card you need to remove the battery first which will erase all the call history. 5. The battery is only 900mH. So battery backup will be less. 6. No protection for camera lens 7. No "Cancel/Clear" key which is very commen in samsung phones 8. Though keypad is looking great but typing is quite hard. So composing a long mail pain taking task. OS:- Compare to nokia, Samsung OS very basic and not improved much since my last model. (I am not talking about Touch phones). Samsungs proprietary OS had many limitations. But nokia phones are running Symbian OS which very easy and can handle files and folders just like we are using in a Computer. It is fully support memory card & data. In Samsung phones you can't install/access a game or an application directly in memory card.It will installed only in your phone memory which is very limited. Another hitch here is these java games & applications should be signed to be get installed. Software (OS) limitations 1. No active standby option (You cant views task/schedules/appointments in standby screen) 2. No searching in folders (In nokia open a folder and just tipe first letter of file it will list all files begin with that word) 3. Menu icons shown cannot be customise or rearrange 4. No Notepad (You can't make any notes and save as file 5. No Go to menu option. 6. No option to modify Right & Left selection key shortcuts 7. No voice recognation feature. 8. Slow UI 9. If we we remove the mem card the the default memory for saving photos and file will be automatically chage to phone memory. And after putting mem card back we manually need to change this to mem card in phone settings which is very irritating. 10. No Call recording feature. 12. Message capacity is 200 14. Internet browser is very sluggish MUSIC 1. If a song Opened direcly from from a folder. The player won't run in a background mode. 2. The music player is very basic. It doesn't have graphic equliser. 3. The lack of search facility in folder will surely irritate anybody. Though it can handle 16 GB card . How can anybody search for particular song name in a folder containing hundreds of songs? 3. Song information will display in 3 tab screens 4.If songs are not properly tagged, Browsing thru various catagories in music player like Artists,Albums,Genres will show false results & names. Camera 1. Thouch it had 3.2MP Camera. Night & dim light photos are horrible. 2. Zooming is possible only in VGA mode (640x480 res.) 3. Video recording is very basic. 4. Lack 3.5 jack is very disappinting. Only samsung earhones will be compatable. Organiser:- 1. Though it can handle all the events. But this won't display in standby screen, or below the calander. SO you should click inside the particular date in the calander to see the each events/schedules. There is a limit of 100 events in each catogory. Games & Applications:- 1. All the pre installed games are demo version. 2. Installing games need to be signed and will consume phone memory. 3. No external Theme support (Though You can create your own themes). 4. No currency converter. I request all the nokia/SE users not to go for Samsung models.

  • it's avery good phine with super camera of 3.2mp good browsing exp.......

  • yes you can buy it bcoz iam using this phone iam satisfied with this phone

  • Dear Rajesh, You can't compare Samsung Shark with Nokia E63. Basically E63 is a smart phone running symbion OS and this Shark is a multimedia phone without any multitasking or any office document viewer. Also you can't install any other software which you can install in your E63. SO i suggest you to stick with your old E63 or go for 6303.

  • After lots & lots of confusion I have finally short listed this model. I have earlier used Nokia E 63. If some body is using this mobile I have few questions to ask.-- 1. What is Overall Experience of this mobile. 2. Can we view PDF, Excel & Word Files? 3. Overall what is final rating (0 to 10) ? 4. What other option should we consider in this price range. I am eagerly waiting for a expert comment & hands on experience. Regards - Raj M

  • Battery is very good for calls. I put my phone into charger sunday night, Next charge i put my phone on Friday morning. Total calls recd & dialed : 60 and message sent : 50 No Music & FM radio used. Some times camera used. But very long time to charge.

  • tell me plz,whether charge is good or not in s5350

  • no flash, no 3.5 mm jack port...I'd better wait for s3200 Monte Bar (as the price should be lower than this) The only plus point is 3G capability...

  • There is no flash, tat's the only drawback.........

  • go for L700 in friendly user compare to this..its only camera quality is beter than that.

  • "sony erection" ....lol

  • Camera clarity is good only for bright areas. But not upto the mark. Difficult to use camera options. No zoom in 3.2 M and less zoom option in below 3.2 M.

  • Current Call recorded facility available nokia & sony. But missing this facility in samsung little disappointment

  • Current Call cannot be recorded like in nokia....

  • The size of charger pin was reduced.. so no other chargers will fit for this. Ear phones were very normal. Would have given air-lock model....camera in night mode is poor...as clarity is less..

  • how is its camera? is it night mode? how is its night photo? how is its headphone? can i record current call voice?

  • Got this mobile 3 days back (Rs.6400+4% Vat+3% Insurance @ Univercell,Chennai). Mainly this mobile designed for SE Naite. Compared to Naite, this mobile beat most areas & lack in some areas. Advantages Over Naite ---------------------- (+) Call log: Detailed Call log with duration and time. Send & received messages details also available in Call log. (+) Phone Book Call Contacts With Group Ring Tone (+) Camera 3.2 Mega pixel with smile detection. Zoom available @ 2 MP. No flash (+) Google mail ,maps & Instant messenger application. (+) Keypad light time. we can set time duration (+) During Call, Call Volume is very high. So far better than SE Naite. But Loud speaker call volume quite. Call Record missing in shark Music Player & FM Radio ----------------------- In this area, i think naite overcome Shark. FM Radio & Music Player through head phone, u feel a nice experience quality. SE Naite & Shark music quality is good via head phone. Through loud speaker i feel naite overcome Shark may be shark loud speaker volume not loud enough. Search option for songs in music player missing in Shark. But Naite had this option FM Radio recording option available in Shark. But main disappointment from shark is music Volume , song change & FM station can't change through side volume key ( even keypad locked) But Naite have this option even keypad is locked. I think this feature from naite is very appreciate one Preloaded Games missing in Shark. But u can download. Comes to internet, Everyone & me also told Naite internet speed is awesome. I feel shark also give the same experience.I feel naite & shark internet speed is equal. 3G, still i am not tested Battery for call, i tested only with call experience. So Battery comes with 3 days with average of 10 calls per day. I think shark battery better than naite battery during calls. Battery for Music player - Not tested Battery for 3G - Not tested Shark phone Backside cover is metalic silver, but lock is not effective. So Back cover easily open during calls also.

  • The metal body looks awesome. The build is also good. Including wifi would have been really welcome. got mine for abt rs.6500. The photo in the florescent light at night seemed grainy. The sound is good and if you use the headphones it is fantastic. The GPS seemed to work fine.

  • cud anyone plz temme whether samsung phones can be upgraded like nokia, i mean can firmware be upgraded or not? also, pl temme can we install themes nd applications like dictionary on these type of phones in samsung.

  • Totally agree with u... the only minus of this model is the lacks of flash LED for the camera.. I consider that features is a very useful one, beside making the camera more usable, a LED flash can be used as a torch light that is very useful in some condition..(as I remember my sister's SE K550 was a very useful device with it LED flash)

  • ohw..yes how about flash for camera?????

  • code name is SHARK phone...nice

  • looks is so sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Go for shark........

  • I read somewhere that this model (S5350) has a back cover made of metal, is it true? How about the other Shark models?

  • This phone not yet released in all over world.

  • can pls tell me the wat is the price in india

  • hi all, I want to buy a new mobile. I choose two models. 1.SE Naite 2. Samsung S5350 Shark Which one to buy. Pls give ur comments I am eagerly waiting for ur comments. Thanks Ven

  • Awesome. i think it will change the mobile market. i am honestly say this will be my first samsung mobile...

  • since it has dnse sound engine may be you wont need any 3.5 mm port support for good audio quality.

  • lacks of 3.5 mm port is disappointing...

  • Oh well, at least its got a better name than the Comeback..Can't really see why anyone would buy one over a simliar spec, similar price Nokia though.

  • Finally!!! This is gonna be my very first Samsung cell phone. Samsung should make tons of these design and form factor. Nokia are the most successful Cp maker because they make tons of non-expensive candy bar phones which has all of the basic necessities. Majority of the consumers don't like touch screen and those type of high-end PDA's and phones. This is perfect for me, I don't like WiFi in my CP :P

  • Real fight between this & SE J105 Naite.

  • Can't help thinking that it's E200 recincarnated. And that's a good thing.

  • Yes, only samsung phones are real performer. Nokia and sony ericssons are always ready to hang out.

  • Samsung new models will surely rule in the year 2010. Our class model it is. Actually samsung has top features in its mobile phones if we see in deep.Bike profile,Smart unlock,mobile tracker,SOS message,fake call this is called technology which only samsung provides.Battery timing is now out class.I am sure Samsung will rule in in year 2010.

  • 100% this my next phone

  • I think Samsung lucido has a better look and better specs too...Just can't undertand why Samsung doesn't release that model in Indonesia..

  • the battery is Rocking!!!

  • this must be samsungs answer for sonyC510 and Nokia6303 classic.nice specs except for 256k colors instead of 16m colors.hope its priced equal or less than Nokia 6303.

  • carbon copy of E-200

  • Slim and designed like shark

  • 1st!!??!! Looking good; good enough if competitively priced
