I finally worked the ringtone out. For anyone else having problems
menu/settings/sounds/incoming call at ringtone option press the i/ok key and then select 'default sounds' there are 30 ring tones there and 27 and 30 vibrate and call at same time.
use same function key i/ok to change message tones.

Hey all,
I just got the samsung p300... can anyone tell me how to change the ring tone? i can only seem to find one on it where there should be 30? I can see the double arrow button which might be what changes it but cant seem to locate a key applicable to it.

help!

thanks

I really like the look of this phone. I got a Samsung E900 the other day and I'm already regretting it. I may sell and get this phone isntead. I think there is no need for a memory expansion slot as 80mb of memory is plenty for what I use my phone for. Also, it's miles better than the Nokia phones which have no expasion slot AND hardly any memory at all.

How is the battery? How many days in a normal use? And if you use both bateries? It duplicates the time? Thanks

Just bought this phone a week ago. I LOVE IT!
i bought it only because of the design. When yyou look at the specifications, this phone is wack. (Price/skills) but it's a collectors item which is all we need..

Retro Chic. Par Down Basics. Simply said for this phone. Absolutely love the sleek compact design with all the nexessary functions normal person would require. No excess. No complaints. Was using the Nokia N80 previusly for 3 months, could wait to get rid of that phone. Horrible design and NOT user friendly. Delays, delays and lagging. And SOFTWARE problems. Just reinforces my dislike for NOKIA phones.

Its either Samsung or SONY these days. period.

IM using P300 for one month now . the thing i didnt like in the phone that you cannot mute the incoming phone call .... Also most of the caller state that your voice is not clear .

im using my p300 for months now.... as of gary's comment, u have a good point there bro.! y are dis haters wasting their time posting some comments? maybe the problem was in their skulls? not on the phone.... second sumone ask if theres an indicator when u r using the leather battery pack... as of me.. im using them separately... if sum1 knows if its ok to use them simultaniously pls post a comment... but overall this phone rocks... im inluv with this thing! the looks the uniqueness, the simplicity, everything! (but the volume of tones) if samsung going to release a phone improving the tones and with a card slot, ill probably buy 1 again... f*#k the haters!

I have owned this phone now for about 2 months so thought i would post my comments.

There are many comments on here that i would take with a pinch of salt because they don't really hold any truth.

The looks.

If i am honest the only reason i bought this phone was because of the looks and more importantly its size. Yes it looks like a calculator but why is that a bad thing - and if you don't like the looks why are you even considering the phone and wasting everyones time posting that as a negative.

The phone is the exact same size as a credit card and the advantage being is you can take this phone out on a night and not have a pocket bulge like you would with other units.

I could have had any handset I wanted. I have access to any handset I want working for a network operator yet I choose this phone because it does everything a 'normal' person could want in a small form factor.

The negatives to me are primarily down to how the phone rings.

-The phones ringtones are not as loud as my SE K750i. This is probably down to the same speaker being used for the tones as is used for voice. Also because the phone isn't able to ring and vibrate at the same time you can miss calls. If you use the case you'll probably miss calls.

-The SMS tones cannot be changed.

- The phone is easy to scratch. I take good care of my phones yet there are plenty of surface scrathces in the metal. I assume this is because the metal is laquered. Anyone know if the phone can be polished?

One thing i would like to add is why are people commenting that the phone is slow at manually altering the network? I mean how often do people actually use the feature. If you are in the UK you should never need to use the feature unless you are roaming and for some reason don't like the network you have been defaulted to.
