  • hoping to buy this phone soon...just two questions: 1)Does the battery last long?...i mean is it as bad as having to recharge it twice a day after continuous use? 2)is the phone sturdy?I drop my phones a lot and i do want it to last at least for a few months this time...had very bad experience with sonyericsson w580i Thanks in advance!!

  • go check specyfication there is 16mln display!

  • mobile gmaps

  • Anyone find any java GPS navigation software that works with the S7220? Particularly one that works without an internet connection?

  • do you know how we can add emoticons instead of their code? or smilies?

  • hi, i was wondering if there is the abitility to skip a track during key lock is active. thanks!

  • what the ...? why should samsung remove smiley item or animations

  • i found the s7220 maybe used USB 1.1 noy USB 2.0

  • There's no way you can. But switching to video record and switch the light on.

  • I remember I bought it with around $250 USD. Really cool phone, love it, just the GPS will take a little bit longer to load. And multi tasking is not availible. You know, taskig while phone calling.

  • so costly ?i wanna know price plz

  • go to the camera. click the right button. navigate to setup. you can turn off the shutter sound from there.

  • i know that the secondary camera which is in the front on the left is for videocalling..can it also take normal shooting of photos?

  • hmm... on the S7220, there isn't an option for "none" unfortunately, just "Single" and "Dual"... so looks like we can't remove one of the clocks then :( wish i could get rid of the yellow coloured digital clock on the top right corner of the screen. spoils the entire look for me! :(

  • Does anyone know if the shutter sound can be turned off?

  • Hi I want to know that could we use the led flash as flashlight?I mean continuously!?

  • i got samsung s7220 and i have one problem: i can not use their pc software : samsung new pc studio.After installation from cd i can not open it because always i get error: NPSMain failure.After that it is trying to connect to samsung web.I tried many different versions:1.4.0.IL2, 1.2.0.ID8,1.2.0.IE6.Last mentioned version after installation upgraded itself but result is the same.I have windows xp sp3 prof.QESTION-how to use this software? Maybe samsung is cheating users and their software is not working on windows xp xp3 ??????

  • very very bad phone ever taken

  • n6700 classic is better than this. compared to its hsdpa 7.2 mbps the 6700 has 10mbps and even an hsupa of 2 mbps. even if this is amoled 16m colors of 6700 would be better than the poor 256k colors. 6700 has 170mb while this 110 mb. we know that nokia's camera had been better than sam's. buy 6700 than this its thinner than this samsung ultra.

  • screen is not so scratch proof.

  • Just bought this phone.Would like to know how to remove one of the clocks from the home screen.(Have tried the method mentioned earlier but it doesnt work!)Also is there any way the network name can be displayed on the screen.A bit of a nuiscance if u are roaming

  • in bar,it's nice! cheaper than i7110 ,6700c

  • What is the OS for this phone?....

  • the secondary camera is only for use when you want to make a video call

  • Ive had this phone for 5 months it is a really good phone. the camera is awesome. the battery life is rele good. i remcommend this phone to alot of people.

  • i just bought this phone and its feels really great. i just have some question though.. how do i take picture from secondary camera?.i mean the front camera..and i also noticed that if i send sms/mms, the recipients name also appear on the call log's recent contacts.how can i disable that? anyway im happy to choose this phone..cheers^^

  • the audio quality is terific

  • can any one comment about the audio quality on the headset? Hot good is it?

  • Doesnt work.. :(

  • To remove second clock from home screen, select "Menu/ Settings/ Display and light/ Home Screen". Scroll down the screen and select "Clock". Press "OK" center key to choose any one from these options: Single, Dual, None". Press "Save". Again press "Save". Note: Above options are for my C5212 duos mobile but these are also equally applicable for your S7220 Ultra mobile.

  • I have Just bought the above model but which ever way i have my main screen set there are always 2 clocks on there is there a way of getting these or even one of these clocks off so there is only one on a time. thanks.

  • Upgraded my mobile in July to this model Lucido by Samsung. Since doing so my phonebill has escalated, I have to send photographs to my works office using the email facility on this phone. I have incurred charges of �54 since July. I never had charges like this when I used my old mobile phone for the same task. Has anyone had the same experience please?

  • What about the battery of this phone? Is the battery as horrible as that of the U800 Soul-B? Is this phone available in India? The Samsung-India support executives are not the least friendly. Perhaps they are under-paid and over-worked. That's why I keep on asking in this forum. Apologies.

  • mr samster, you ask this question once; -->>>How the heck do you check an sms during call? This is a good set but if you are not able to check an sms during call its a HUGE draw back you can check your mail or sms, try configuring your camera key to act as a "switch" instead of camera. You can also access other application using this shortcut

  • I keep on installing games and applications for this phone, 9 out of 10 games I installed wont function with the error "Jave error. No memory available". Does anyone out there know whats the meaning of this? and how to fix it?

  • Does this phone have proper GPS or just cell based GPS

  • Have been using the U800 Soul since September 2008. The stunning design of the slim Soul Bar truly "does me" :) Now looking forward to this piece. Is Samsung S7220 Ultra B available in India? If yes, the price-tag would be? Anybody ready to help me out? Thanks a lot -- in advance, of course.

  • How is the sound quality???I heard it is very bad..worst of the worst...is it true???review on phone arena gave the same comment...experienced users,please clarify...

  • y does anoyo.. has issues with every handset which is released in the market, y arn't u ever satisfied with ANY products, I guess ppl like u shud develop a OS & released in the market or come up with some new design or some new feature or cud any new technology???

  • while s8300 in bar

  • Moderator, please do not delete this link, it is the correct webpage to tell everyone the Bluetooth profile available in S7220 Link: Alternate forum link: Go to Post# 7

  • Here's the Bluetooth profile link, for S7220

  • I just bought this phone recently, and I realised in the Camera function, after I adjusted and on the Anti-Shake function, it will automatically be back to default after I exit the camera. It can be quite annoying. Anyone out there experiencing this problem too, it really gets me annoying. And another thing is I am unable to hide my service provider logo in this phoe, unlike those old samsung phones I used that allowed me to hide it.

  • No Wi-Fi. Why?

  • nice design works nicley recommended

  • This has got to be the most boring phone ever, luckily am exchanging for the jet today, will see how that one goes,

  • Audio quality test ???

  • How the heck do you check an sms during call? This is a good set but if you are not able to check an sms during call its a HUGE draw back.

  • Just got the phone and can't find GPS? it says supported by A-GPS. what does that mean???

  • very bab size

  • I'm sorry. Nokia 6303 Classic is cheaper. It's of the same price with 6700.

  • This phone is better though. I like the build and the materials used to produce this phone.

  • you might want to take a look at Nokia 6303 Classic. They're of the same price range.

  • I just tried to scan and fit in my finger tips on this phone coz I like the design and type. Unfortunately, I can't almost hit the key I wanted. Some of them are hiding with its other since they are arranged like dusts stick in spherical objects. Candy bar cellphone with this category C901 of Sony Ericson is better...

  • 13,200 - 13,500 in greenhills

  • 14,1450 at SM City Cebu

  • i would like to ask if the phone's flash is quick. i mean when activated it automatically flash in just a second not stay for about 3secs like my samsung soulb. thx.

  • i saw this phone from one of the outlet in the philippines and it cost Php13,000 cheap i think..

  • i bought this phone recently walhamdullilah, and i found it to be really beautiful especially in the camera division, but i wonder why doesn't programs like the athan software and others don't override the interface of the phone, is all java enabled phones like that. they don't have background functionality???!!! because every time i press minimize the program is paused or freezed, please gimme your say and let me know if there is something i can do.

  • Hi, would like to know does it support micro SDHC (high capacity) memory card? Thanks.

  • Yes u can. That's what it says in the review...

  • can i type msg in hindi or marathi?

  • does anyone who if i can block incoming text messages from this phone? Thanks

  • sar =1, 08 what a pity, usually samsung has low sar prices.

  • tell me the price of this ph

  • does this phone have number lock

  • i wanna buy this phon! how much

  • is this fone available in India?? at What price?? i m intresdted in buying.... Features looks good.

  • Great phone at this price. Best things are looks, screen and camera.

  • bought today on uk ebay for 148 pounds including postage (Vodafone-unlocked and unwanted upgrade)

  • does this phone have a soft keypad?? and does this phone have a good sound quality? i need your reply. thnx

  • Phone Price can any one tell?

  • nice features and looks, can any1 tell mi the price of this fone??

  • can any 1 tell mi the price of this phhone... plz

  • We could also upgrade to Nokia E52 battery :D

  • Add a WLAN. Add a camera lens cover. Upgrade the soft keys (design, elevation) Upgrade the screen to 2.4" and 16M colors Upgrade the audio jack to 3.5mm Increase internal memory all these and this would be a perfect phone. oh yeah. it could also use some diet.

  • when they can get this phone into a smaller size like 108mm i'll be in love!!! sick off these average spec'd phones in bar form that are just way too big!

  • Looks Damn Smart.. i love this phone.. One of THE BEST of SAMSUNG's Best.

  • Just got this phone and must say the look and feel are great however there seems to be very limited ring tone choices and there does not seem to be any key tones or incoming message tones to choose from. Also the phone does not come with any games - if you want them you have to download and pay for them.

  • your momma so fat she has her own postcode

  • Does this phone have windows operating system

  • Headset connector is the stupid "multifunction jack" proprietary type, but the packaging includes an adapter lead from [stupid] to 3.5mm, and a matching set of earphones. At least I think it's 3.5mm. Maybe it's 2.5mm. I'll check later.

  • Browser is NetFront 3.5 apparently. There's a Virtual Pointer option, but I have no idea what this means.

  • First impressions - I've only had the phone for one day, after using Sony Ericsson phones for the last 5 years, so I'll probably be over-picky about the differences. The screen looks great; bright and plenty of contrast even on the lowest brightness setting. The phone is very light and slim, even with the battery. BUttons are large and easy to use, although the softkeys seem a bit small, and are placed so close to the end-call button that I often press that button accidentally and get returned to the Idle Mode screen. Not used the Music Player yet (I have a perfectly good MP3 player with more memory and a proper headphone socket), but it seems to make good use of the D-pad. Camera seems to work well even indoors, which is impressive, considering the lens and sensor are probably smaller than my thumb-nail. Annoyances: * No voice-dialling, so inbound calls only on handsfree * Connecting a handsfree kit requires a key-press on the phone to confirm a prompt: isn't this what "Hands Free" is supposed to avoid? * Some simple tasks need too much dinking around the menus, for lack of a dedicated button on the phone (e.g. deleting items), but that may be just SE-withdrawal.

  • The buttons on the keypad produce a solid click - I don't think they require much force, but you may disagree. I suggest you find a demonstration model in a store and try it for a moment. I do find that if I use the phone with one hand, I seem to strain my thumb reaching for buttons in the bottom row - it's easier to use two-handed.

  • @memba, I have a PDF of the user guide here in front of me. The only 'voice' references are to voice calls and voice memo. There is no voice-dialling feature on this phone, which is a little disappointing, since even my old SE T610 had that feature 5 years ago. So you can only *receive* calls hands-free; and when you switch on your headset (mine's a Jawbone), the phone prompts you to accept the device, so you still have to dig out the phone and press a soft-key. Not as elegant as SE, but it's early days yet, so I'm prepared to put up with this and give the phone a chance.

  • up to 16GB

  • whats the max sized memory card can this phone hold.

  • does this have a nice SOUND QUALITY?.... and does this have a SOFT KEYPAD?.. because i want a phone who have a soft keypad..because i love to text and text...so i want a SOFT keypad...i don't want to strain my hands.. please respond people.. :)

  • A Fantastic phone @ the price. I got it 5 days back and found it more than exciting. The best thing is the size and weight, which is always my great concern. Prior to this phone, I ve been using Nokia N82 & Sony Ericsson C902. No doubt I enjoyed both, but after using this Samsung machine, I admit that it has more pleasure in handling, using and marking a style. Following 3 points, where this phone marks above Nokia N82 & Sony Ericsson C902: 1. Screen Quality (more than decent) 2. Camera pictures (greaaaaaat) 3. Stylish design..specially the red line @ edges (my friends appreciated it very much) 4. Size & Weight (your pocket does not look like pregnant) So, I recommend this phone to those who have priorities as above.

  • It's very nice phone and camera is very nice...easy to use...

  • Why not? What's wrong with the phone?

  • dont buy it thats all i have to say,

  • Can someone comment on the browser? Is it the same trimmed down NetFront 3.4 or a full feature with pointer? Can you download OperaMini onto this?

  • I totally agree with you.

  • Actually this phone reminds me of the Samsung Soul, and the U800. The calendar display icons are the same, so is the memo layout and the tasks. Plus how you can save them into the memory card. Also your files are the same. Plus the theme creator is the same!!! It's certainly not like the G600 (an example of another phone by Samsung). The only thing that is different is the battery life, it is very good, unlike the soul.

  • Can any one help me know how much is this unit

  • can anyone tell me if you can assign individual text tones to individual contacts rateher than just ring tones ?

  • actually ged o2 uk r calling it the samsung Lucido

  • I've read it twice now and still cant find anything to do with voice dial..?

  • yes it has voice dial.. read the manual and it will show you how to set it up!

  • It looks like a transformer robot.

  • Does this handset support .avi playbeck?

  • Does this have Voice dial. It clearly states on this very site "- Voice memo/dial" Yet I'm struggling to fine it.? Anyone enlighten me please

  • Display spec should be changed AMOLED!!!Not TFT

  • Comparison between U800 and S7220 Nup nothing alike, Spec-savers it is then eh!

  • Vodafone UK are calling Samsung Lucido

  • If you think this phone looks anything like your U800 then may I suggest that you pop into spec-savers net time you pass. They look nothing alike, Apart from the fact they are both phones. but you can say that with any phone.

  • it's identical to my phone(u800 soul b) i was just thinking if the led flash and the camera is good indoors. my only problem with my phone is that the camera is poor shot indoors.. is this phone the same with the firmware of u800? but honestly the camera is fantastic during daylight..

  • O2 UK are calling this the 'Samsung Eltz'

  • i have a question can you look youtube movies on this gsm pleas thank you sorry 4 bad engels
