Please can anyone unswer within 13 hours(then I'll be buying a mobile). Can the GPS function work "as is" - without maps - just give the location in longitude and latitude? I doubt if my country has a decent GPS map... But i want to use it while hiking in wild...
Huge thanks in advance

well, I rotated the display in landscape (like in N95) using 3rd party app called RotateMe , google it ...:)

GSMarena team, does linking a useful review to visitors is prohibited ??? ( i made that review myself btw )

the Samsung i550W is a very nice phone, recommended by me, for all who don't like the battery, adjust your display brightness in a moderate way! DO NOT SET DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS TO MAX >> this will make your battery life very short, also try making the dim time shorter , switch off bluetooth when not in used...,etc.

GOOD LUCK, i550 > CHEAP , PACKED and RECOMMENDED !

Use EDGE or 3G connection to use
Enjoy GPS

Cheers i550w

Hi everyone. Just curious about this phone (looks awesome, and has specs nothing short of it), more exactly about the i550w... i can't find it anywhere in europe. Is it available only in koreea/asia? Because the wi-fi is smthg indispensable for my next phone. Ok thanks. bb

been using this phone for over 3 months now, and i can get enough of this phone. i discover new things every day. so far, i have not expereince any problems with my unit. it has been so reliable and sturdy.
battery life is not bad considering the lighting of the 2.6" screen. i normally used it up to 4 days normal use.

i never regretted buying this unit over the SE p1i.
