  • yr i hv phn bt its really nt good m nt happy wid it.....................very bad

  • No he works perfectly, you want to kill samsung, nokia asha is bad no wifi no nothing, samsung is the best !

  • For this money is better any Nokia Asha because Nokia has better build quality (the best in low cost phones) and the best software updates support (Samsung doesn't update anytime feature phones). Also, Asha phones run S40, it's whatsapp compatible. S40 is more configurable than other propietary OS since ever.

  • Very Nice Phone Everything Is Working Nicely

  • Wifi not working this phone help me

  • Features are good, nice shape, nice screen and relatively easy to use. It says here it has an accelerometer which mine does not, but it does have a proximity detector. The battery life is alright but as you'd expect WiFi reduces it to about a day. It DOES have a threaded conversation mode for texting, however it doesn't seem as good as those I've seen on other Samsungs - it doesn't show pictures in the bubbles and it still says new message unless you actually open it. Another not-so-good thing is that it's not very customisable and it has no picture editor. It's not all bad, though. Like I said, the features are good and it has other useful little things like when on the homescreen, tapping the status bar will show a mini control centre where you can control wifi, bluetooth, silent mode and see notifications. It's overall a good phone and it's quite fast, too. My main problem with it is that it is a little overpriced, if touchscreen's not such an important thing you'd be better off with a ch@t 335.

  • Its very very gud mobile and all this comments are fake

  • good model

  • it is the worst model of samsung so don't waste ur money.it is not a smartphone.internet is very slow.its menu looks very poor.it has same functions as smsng champ but only with bigger screen.

  • this Phone is not Good because it will not support the video player in the internet and in the phone there is no good option so please nobody can buy this phone

  • Micromax a52 have better specification than this at same price . A52 is android and 1 ghz processor.

  • Its not a smartphone, so don't get expectant about super fast email and photo editing etc. but the best qualities for me are that battery life is decent, and the composing text display and numeric keyboard are big. The virtual Qwerty keyboard is hard to manage with big thumbs but the numeric keypad is excellent, supporting usual T9. This is an upgrade not only of the Tocco Lite but the Tocco Icon, the disastrous model that kept ringing random people in your phonebook and would unlock itself at will. This however is a little slow on internet access but if all you need are the footy results and a bit of news then its fine. The facebook app is particularly good, the messaging speed particularly. I have ok-to-good (more ok than good) reception in my area and on vodafone UK it works better than my previous Nokia phone. Samsungs are excellent for voice reception, and in these days of worse and worse reception every year, it performs pretty well. There's conversation view for messages but no picture support for contacts in that view. If you want all that, go for a smartphone and enjoy less than 21hrs of battery life every day lol. But if you like a small handset and you're a one-handed texter this is great. It takes a bit of getting used to without haptic (vibration) feedback on the keys but I soon got used to it. The email client isn't wonderful and its not a business phone, but my memories of my one and only android phone were constantly being hounded by emails and syncing. None of that here :-)

  • 130 eur for this? I prefer the galaxy mini!

  • bad connection with computer,

  • Bad option if u are willing to buy this phone .go for galaxy y . android gingerbread phone . with 832 mhz processor . games run quiet smoothly . qvga (240X320) good phone in all . also available in dual sim both qwerty and touchscreen

  • in diz phone hw 2 save the net whn it dowlodng...coz whn i click the right side of button of the cell,the net is gng of.plz tell me if sum one no abut the all features of diz cell plzz...

  • Hey friends, This is the genuine feedback i m giving u all,last week i bought this phone and till now i havent face any problem.everything is fine, battery back up is nice.for this price, features are more than enough.if any one needs gps, 3g and android, then u have to spend some more thousands,so, dont expect everything like a smartphone in this phone for this price .

  • YES

  • very best but not avilable in white color on naraingarh ambala

  • what about Regional language compatibility like tamil?

  • is it already available in the philippines?

  • More expensive than Samsung Galaxy Y "S5360", and so bad.

  • TFT Capacitive touchscreen...dude. this have cool features & ill makesure with new virsion of opera mini u can download software direct in memorycard...this features of operamini have only in star3 & new champ2 duos...

  • TFT Capacitive touchscreen or TFT Resistive touchscreen???

  • can this play you tube

  • when will it be come in market?

  • Nope it's just a java phone....so basically no android or 3g

  • is it android or other

  • why do these level of phones doesn't offer 3G speeds?

  • dual sim ????

  • yah!dude you are quite right.i agree you

  • The downgraded market of samsung.

  • yeah ... they could at least made it with 3G and a 3.2" screen.that would made a difference.

  • i think not everyone who love touchscreen want to charge his phone battery every day, need complicated apps, only basic phone call and text message, thats why samsung make this budget phone, touchscreen feature, but without android/symbian/windows operating system which drains battery very fast. If you live in poor network coverage area, you have to charge the battery twice a day if you have android phone

  • 667y7y

  • Step down from Star II, no progress, one of the best feature phone ruined...

  • dimwit try to look at the left of the page and try clicking sony.. lol

  • sony xperia found on sony brand not sony ericsson , you got that

  • samsung star 3. i thought it would b a gud 1. but,this is a fucking 1

  • because it is in the "sony" tab.

  • that's beacause the new xperia are not of sonyericsson, they're in sony

  • hey frnds just go for the samsung gt-5620 much better than star bt u will have to spend a thousand more star's cam n video is not good u will getamaze to use a gt 5620 monte

  • I don't know why new sony experia phone are not in the list in the sony ericsson page....GSM arena not try to update on other brands....but all new samsung phones are included even a stupid buget phone like this. BIAS.....

  • not bad

  • U r right. Even nokia 5233 is far better than star 3 being a totally roastrinoe with 640x360 resolution. Only thing that it have no wi-fi.

  • It has just 20mb of internal memory. I upset.

  • Same design like galaxy y. Is it for those who want to show that they use galaxy(actually star3)?

  • 240 x 320 ! touch screen resolution is outdated and video are silly.

  • Like a galaxy y without android and gps, all specifications is very similar...

  • Like a galaxy y but without android and gps, specifications is very equal...

  • suxx nokia 5230 is much better than samsung star 3

  • totally junk.it would be release 2years ago.modern age demands modern set.galaxy series is best.

  • It has to be dirt cheap, because the Wave Y is better in every aspect and is quite cheap at 120 euros...

  • Star 2, Star 3, Galaxy Y, Wave Y...etc why so many low level phones from Samsung ? A very good one will be enough. Same strategy as Nokia before: make as many phones as possible to see only Samsung phones in the shop...

  • 2 years ago all design like iphon . . . today all design like Galaxy !! I like Galaxy

  • Awesome cell.... Samsung rock with star 3

  • wtf! they shouldnt release a new phone if its crappy

  • the design is always the same...why samsung always making the same design all over and over again? there's no innovation on design..iphone copycat..;(

  • Not bad
