I am using this phone for the past year. It is is good, lightweight phone with good display, average sound, average shape. But the battery performance is very bad!! It is a very slow phone also.

I'm using this phone for 5 months.

Nice design! 1000 phone book entries, good picture & sound quality, mms, gprs & java all good.This sound is not so cute as SonyErricson but better than average Nokia. No speaker phone, no silent option while ringing an incoming call, No enter key option in messaging, Cant sent picture messages to anyone, but we can send multimedia pictures, ringtones by mms. The internet accessing centre button causes much more difficulty, accidentally finger touches our cash balance will be reduced!. Excluding 1000 entry phone book, all other memmories are very less. Does not support JPG pictures and 3GP/mp3 ringtones but support MIDI and mmf. Interface is not more user friendly, but a little. only very less options and settings are there. While saving text messages it shows only the phoneNumber/name as identifier.Duration of any message display is very high around 4 or 5 seconds. Mixed call history of recieved/dialled/missed calls while pressing call button is a good feature. There is no profile that we can choose at a time, at least sound options. In the ringing type thre is only Ring, Ring + Vira, Vibra; there is no option for Light only.We can save more than one number may be with different icons, While any incoming call it doesn't show the number and the type icon too, it just display the saved name, so we can't understand from which phone the call is coming,This is the most foolish thing done by samsung. We can use Ringtones for alarms and schedules, but messaging and other alerts have seperate tones for each section, it is too bad I think. We cannot move all of the address in the SIM to Phone and vice versa,which is useful if we shift from one SIM to another or from one phone to another, we have to do it one by one, if 500 numbers we have to do the procudure 500 times! While saving anything it always ask SIM/Phone it is a cumbersome, This asks even if only one choice "Phone" also ! Great foolish question! If we save any phone book entry it always ask memory location, this also steals a click and time, Who remembers all the phone memory locations ??! We can make silent by just holding down the # key, it's good. if auto lock key is off, we can lock it by holding down * key, but it ask an unwanted question : "lock Key pad?". 3 alarms are there Daily/Morning/onetime, it's good. but Morning call has 2 options "monday to friday" & "Monday to saturday", so that we can't use this in sundays! While typing message caps lock handling is not so good. In phone book we can create group (max 10), add more phone numbers to this group, we can set ringtone/message tone & graphic logo to a group, it's good, not possible to assign ring tone to each number.
If you like these nice features with lower price and ready to suffer these difficulties of course you can by this small pretty & cu phone . Good luck!

This mobile is great. The only problem I'm facing is that the display remains dark (or dimmed) even if there's any missed call or new msg. I've tried to fix this by changing backlight options but it doesn't seems to work. Can anyone help me pls. And yeah, this handset should also have stopwatch.
