People saying bad things about this phone should consider that for around 600$ or less you are getting a portable unit with a pc tv and radio all in one.If you don't like it buy the stupid clithching N95 for 1000 euroes.This Phone is way better than that piece of junk. About the sound it is good but no super but if you want loud music buy a sound sytem not a phone.If you listen in head phones it is even better(mean for music)Tv reception is a bonus with a small antenna.If you have no antenna how will you get any reception.Even conventional Tvs need one. Why are you expecting to get reception without an antenna in you car far from a transmission tower and simm support.Again if you want Tv anywhere and all the time Pay the carrier $$$ monthly and get a N95.Battery has two.Who gives you two??? This phone is a marvel for the price it is on offer for and the size and the structure is so well designed that no one will know this baby can do so many things and it operates on Windows Mobile. Personally never had any probelms with it.Friends who have SYmbian OS are also cursing words.By the way you can plug tv cable into it and you will get a great looking portable tv.Scans over 300 channels.

my boyfriend wants one real bad. he says that it is very cool and worth his money instead of his buying me a nice outfit to wear to go out.

i don't understand how people are overating this phone. i have it right next to me. i live in the uk. the tv reception is disgraceful ok it's analogue but when i stick in the headphone i have to move the headphone wire about to get reception. if i'm lucky i'll get picture and have to hold still. while moving in the car any tv reception? hell no. the loudness of sound is definietly a huge let down. i also have a 02 xda mini/i-mate jam and i have not found a phone to beat it's loudness i mean when i put earphones in it the sound is superb and will even beat mp3 players etc. but this phone sound quality is extreamly dissapointing. i would of bought an update of i-mate jam if it had tv and wifi also gps built in. the battery life is disgusting the i-mate will run low after i had the mp3 on all day on full volume this phone can never challenge it on battery life. if it had really loud sound and great tv reception it would've of been a winner. it also does not have a phone pad. now i'm looking for apps to enhance like something to increase sound etc.

Hi ppl...
I´m a bit confused between Gigabyte i128 and HTC 3600.
I made some comparison between those PDA´s, even though I still don´t know which of them I´ll take.
Another question, what the diference between Gigabyte i128 and i120? which is the latest one??

To get tv working it is easy.Just press the Tv icon and you should get the screen and then you get the options.Country stuff is not important.Plug your home antena in it and press scan and it will look for all the channels.Do note that all units come with Ntsc and Pal and Secam.About battery I would suggest you put it in auto shut down mode set to the minimum 1 minute and you will see you can get much more battery life out of it.Shut down bluetooth and other stuff that you do not use all the time.Gps works fine too.This phone is great if you know how to use it.

To: Von - where you came from? I bought my unit yesterday here in Saudi Arabia and still fixing its TV capability but until now I can't get any TV channels. Under "Region" option, there's Middle East and Saudi Arabia. I choose Saudi Arabia and search for a channel but nothing happened and I did the same thing selecting Middle East option. Can you help me with this or anybody out there how to tune-in the TV program? Thanks for your help.

i wrote a good review for this phone and you can read it below but i think all in all if you comapre price and what you are getting given no one is even offering tv option+radio+ 2mpx cam+Gps+wifi in a comapct windows mobile phone like gigabyte is then this product does not have any competitors yet.Go for it.

Stories: well since i got this phone it is barely in my hands.All friends are taking it to try stuff on it.I actally am hiding the phone these days.Bad news is that some 50 people manage to use it and now they are all going for Gigabyte.Like i said you can't beat this phones price and funtionality given that is even surpassing anything sold today.

Well i travel by train allot thesedays and i have my phone with me.In a 7 hour trip i watch 3 movies and make a few calls and surf a little and still 50% of battery is left when i step off.Tv option is great but with an antenna(any will do).Also will depend how far you are from an emission center.Actually people on the train thought it was a new nokia phone or something.The tv option just bring people around.Even At home i just plug my usual cable tv to it and the picture is great.I can even plug dvd to it and watch. I bought my unit in Dubai on my last trip.I hesitated at first but it was a risk i was glad i took.It is the only phone i bought and when i look around i do not see anything else coming close to it for another 2 years at least.I suggest you go for the black version of the 128.It is cooler.
Reminds me of the Nokia 3250 and the N80 screen.People who complain about this phone are just sobs who just like Nokia or SE.You should ask yourself the question if you still question price wise.No doubt you are thinking of going after the latest nokia or Se .Compare the features and price and then think that these phones have symbian(crap)and then think this has window mobile.About battery sorry i forgot ,you get two of them so when one is being charged you can use the other one and i found out you can charge the battery when it is connected to the usb pc port.How about that!i downloaded the touch pad program and now i can draw things.Worth every penny
