Samsung F490 review: Fingertip away
The Samsung F490 follows a trend that we welcome - touch-based user interface and a 5 megapixel autofocus camera. Add a widescreen 3.2" TFT display and a slim profile, and it already sounds like a juicy deal. We've already reviewed...

Hello .
One has seen many comment sin relation to the SAMSUNG F490V but one has to say that the touch screen is not that good and i have used the current Iphone for this messurment but as with ALL touch screen phones Texting is quite bad as most people (men in mind) have fat fingers) so texting on say a normal phone is very very quick indeed yet you can never come close using a touch screen phone and some one mentioned the poor quality camera and they are correct even though the SAMSUNG F490V has a 5mp camera it has a poor lense fitted and i have used the nokia N82 and the N95 8gb to messure this and the pictures from the SAMSUNG F490V look more like a 2.7mp than the claimed 5mp but as one has looked at many phones one decided to buy two and they are the nokia N78 and the Nokia N96 both are very good indeed and can recomend both yet for every day use the Nokia N78 has many fetures WIFI FMT yet its 3.2mp camera gives far far better pictures than the SAMSUNG F490V and has a built in FM Transmitter quite handy do you not think ?..and To close many mention the Iphone and indeed it is very nice but it is let down by a cheap camera and poor battery that you can not change unless you remove it by heat so i do agree with some who say the Iphone is last year but i also have to say its interface has yet to be challenged by an current touch screen as even the omani is not very good in relation to its touch feedback screen but its 5mp facial rec camera works well but as i expected a poor quality picture....sorry for waffling...

What's the differnce between F490 and F490V?

Am I right?

Samsung F490 VS iphone iphone THAT was obsolete even before arriving to european market,,who buy it,,who who,, not so clever kids or ignorant people with money to spend in ridiculous contracts,,,what do they get,,they get a sloww web, even worst camera, bad batery life, but good enough to hit a mate in the office so in the end is good,,,at least for dummies, read the comparations and go for others liKE THE Samsung F490 for ex!iupii IS GOOD GOOD

The f490v does have autofocus, however the camera still isnt that good. but overal the phone is great the standard music player is great. Just don't expect to much from musicstation with this phone
