I have this phone since 2-3 weeks. Looks cool, ok, but it's not all. The truth: it has a big bug, it crashes many times a day and you must reboot. And it is not only my phone, I know other people who have the same pb. I found out what was the pb. The phone tries to switch between GPRS and UMTS networks. Apparently, not very well and few times a day it crashes and the only thing it allows is emergency calls ! To solve the pb, in the menu Connections you set only the GPRS. So, forget about 3G features ! There are other small bugs but not a big deal...
Also, battery life is far from being 300h. I phone maybe 5-10 min a day and send few sms and the battery life is about 72h.
If I had to buy a new mobile, it would not be the Z140, for sure. But I needed a new mobile because mine was dead and Vodafone had a good offer (99 euros). I did not want to spend too much money on a mobile...
So no "it's cool" or "it's nice" or "it rocks", just facts.

I asked for this phone for christmas but my dad says it isnt very good according to things he has read about it.
I would use the camera quite a bit, but not really the video.I would also upload a few mp3's.
I have the phillips 355 now how does it compare to this phone?
And is it good for what I want it for?
Please help!

Hi, Im thinking about getting this phone. It looks pretty cool. However, does anyone know whether this phone accepts a Tmobile SIM card? Where can I buy this phone? I know Hawaii does not carry this phone anywhere here. Please let me know.
Thanks. :)

I've had this phone about a month now and have to say I'm not impressed. The menu is complicated and long winded and the battery life is terrible. I had a E800 before which kept crashing but it was a much easier phone to use despite it's faults

my dad baught me this phone today for a christmas present but i had a look and its great! The screen resolution, the camera, the ringtones. This phone is a great buy! is worth well more than asking price! you turn the picture the right way round by pressing the volume button on the side when the camera is on.

I bought it 2 days ago. It crashed already twice. Sometimes it's blocked and I can only call emergency service. Nothing to do, must reboot each time. Does anyone know why ? How to fix this ? I met someome who had the same samsung, same problem.
Otherwise the mobile is ok, the display resolution is simply amazing ! Battery life is poor.
To alix: To download from the PC you must first install the USB drivers and PC Studio from the CD. Then, when you connect the mobile to the PC through the USB port, it is recognized immediately and with PC studio you will be able to drag and drop files...
