after contacting Samsung, they informed me that this phone has a Samsung proprietory Agere O/S. does anyone have any idea, if a document Viewer (like the Picsel found on other samsung mobiles like the E900 - on other brands as well) can be installed on the E890?

Echo problem because of the touch screen (I believe) It seems that phones with complicated hardware setups all have this problem... Take the PALM TREO for one. Instead with the TREO phone, call quality is kinda bad..... For now, I suggest we live with the problem and you could try turning the VOICE CLARITY on this feature (not sure whether it will work or not...)

@F4pr --> i experienced the same thing when receiving a text message. The picture of the sender doesn't come out. Maybe this is exclusive for the call features because everytime i received a call...the pictures comes out (even an mp4 file would do)

Overall, I like the phone. Very trendy and stylish!

This is a nice design phone but the echo can be very annoying. There have not been a prefect phone out there yet.

had this phone for 2 weeks.

anyone experiences sms received without the caller id displayed?

this phone refused to display some of the caller id when receiving text msg.

the samsung technician here said they can't help. it's a new phone and they do not have the latest software to rectify.

samsung????

not CIF.resolution not sure but like i said b4 its so so. the sound not loud either. i tested it by the roadside and the sound turn into a whisper. anyway no phone is perfect. i have tried 30+ different models of different cellphone brands but none could satisfy my mobile needs. this corporate people who build handphones know this and they just want to take peoples money so they don't make perfect handphones. again, if there is a perfect phone, down the road something else better will come along and people will grab it.....cheers

had this phone for more than a week now. kinda cool as i always wanted to 'write' on a cellphone. poor thing about this phone is the battery life and the inability to use MP3 sounds as a message tone.the music sound is so so. video pic not that good. this phone would probably last me up til' the end of this year! me eyeing the motorola rokr e6
