I owned this phone few months ago. First of all am not impressed how keypad back-lit goes off in seconds. Also am not impressed about cursor return backwards whereby you have to press return key repeatedly. Now, I want to bring battery level icon on phone but cannot do it. Show me how to do it.

i bought this phone a month agao and i want to say that i am very pleased about it.it is upgraded to windows 6.5.
i had lots of phones before including xperia x10i and n 900 .
in my opnion any phone has its own weak points and its good points.
nokia is "loosing the battle
' and sony ericsson just like samsung are coming from behind faster than nokia .
my next phone will be samsung beam .all goos from spain.

Hi everyone, been pondering of buying this phone as it suits most of my business needs. One real open question that the review seems made me still left guessing though is the availability or option for alpha numeric keys when sending SMS. Is this phone built with one or plain QWERTY as per the review? Thanks..

No stereo speakers, what do you mean?
It plays music and stuff from the same speaker through which we receive calls?

It simply brainless to broaden DISADVANTAGES list with comments - like "no youtube player, no native flash support" - c'mon this is windows mobile - everything can be fixed. Oh and that fabulous "fingerprint magnet" disadvantage.
If you cannot find the real disadvantages - did you ever thought that manufacturers read your comments and try to resolve them?
Luckily, I stopped reading them - but instead listen only to users' experiences.

Just additional vs HD2: CPU with scalable freq.(and can be overclocked BTW) + AMOLED + resistive screen (yep stylus - since I perceive WinMo devices as business phones)+ better battery. Oh and - I owned 4 HTC devices in previous 5 years (Prophet-Trinity-TCRuise-TPro) and NONE could match Samsung's build quality. On the other hand - yeah you get Snapdragon and that stupid Sense UI - which believe me is far less usable compared to Widgets.
Only benefit of HD2 is Snapdragon - but if you want it - Acer NeoTouch is far beeter choice and far more affordable

For the price of 1 HD2 you will get this beauty and another phone for your wife/gf.

No doubt HD2 is great device though it ONLY lacks secondry camera for video call.

Amazing phone ! But its a pity the service centre at Indore, MP does have no clue about its operation or set-up. Have to call up toll free number for assistance. Samsung People - Windup you service centre or change the jokers or train them as many may need help......

Totally agree with earlier comments made here re: lack of camera lens protection. Is it just me or are makers increasingly not bothering with them? Why have a high-spec all-singing camera if it's just going to have a scratched lens after a few months?

Sony Ericsson seems to be the only company still taking lens cover seriously (a la flawed Satio), but even their upcoming units don't have them. 'Pixellage' means nothing without one - surely?

GSMArena you need to correct your main disadvantages list, because you are mistaken, the OmniaPRO DO have a digital compass!

You guys should really mark 'No camera lens cover' as one of the disadvantages .. I really am starting to hate to see mobiles with good cameras (3-5mp+) without adequate protection ..
