Samsung S5230 Star review: Hot starlet - read the full textSamsung are going to great lengths to pile pressure on the LG Cookie. While the Samsung S5600 Preston aims to outdo it, the 5230 Star is set for a head-on collision course. This starlet’s middle name...

The biggest disadvantage is it doesn't have 3g....no phone is good without a 3g specialy now when 3G is launch in India pls think twice before buying this phone...

that's just a phone not a smart phone. actually it's quite cheap so it's worth it's price.i don't regret buying it. the camera is really good and clear but don't match real digital cameras that's just a phone option .buying this phone won't cost you alot and it's really worth it, but don't expect too much of it what u pay is what you get.

This phone is a terrible piece of plastic crap.

It's a shame that such reputable companies feel they need to put this shit out in to the market. this phone wont support anything useful you expect from a phone. The touch screen is terrible and temperamental. the camera is pretty bad, it's slow, doesn't support 3G.

Don't get it.

I don't get it, the reviewer complains that this phone has no smart dialing and say smart dialing will save time dialing numbers, yet with the Samsung s8500 review the reviewer complain that phone has got smart dialing but says he see no use for smart dialing and that smart dailing is useless. So what do the reviewer want, smart dialing or no smart dialing?

In my case, it's the radio, the mp3 player, alarm clock, some events or what and games. Even if I have everything "unticked", these remain in the panel. What to do?
Thanks
