Well, it's good phone,nice look, elegant and features almost perfect,not everyone needs the GPS, WiFi and QWERT in screen to make it the perfection in one set but this is the manufacturers policy which it's you can't get everything in one so play with it until we make you buy the next new one and for sure it won't be perfect as well.

i understand what you are saying, but depending on where you are and what you are doing, eg say you are a backpacker! and don't take ur lappy overseas, or do not want to carry your lappy at a restaurant (dinner) before hitting the strip where all the bars are. wouldn't the pda be convenient?

you guys out f your mind. Why you want a phoen this size PDA with no Wi-Fi??? you do not want wi-Fi means you do not know how use and ever had a phone had wi-Fi to know how nice it is. you can at home, mall, Airport ,ot office use your wi-fi free and check e-mail, do IM, look for news, or maybe access to places like youtube easy and fast. That is why IPHONE popular guys if you do not know. no Wi-Fi the phone is useless Samsung.

I agree. Wifi should not be a major feature for phones for I don't think it can ever replace a laptop. So for those people who complains & puts this phone down just because it does not have wifi, I don't think you guys don't really understand what features are more important and should really count on phones. If internet on the go is that important for you guys. Get a laptop.

I like this phone. I don't understand why some people make a big deal having wi-fi on their phones. Going online via phone is so inconvenient. If internet is that important for you guys, get a laptop. I think this phone is more for professionals who own laptops.

Wifi can be huge if you refuse to pay for data plans. I figure a company like Samsung or LG doesn't include them because of good relationships with carriers. Free wifi spots helps eliminates added revenue for carriers that also rely on data plan charges.

Seems like Samsung, LG, and even SE rarely puts Wifi on their 5MP cameraphones. HTC, Apple, and Nokia are more serious including Wifi. At least the new TouchWiz UI looks promising...

to buds, I consider myself a regular web browser. W/ that said, wifi is a must for me. Not on my phone, but my laptop =) If you're a heavy web browser and u need to browse the web even while you're walking down the street, and a laptop is too bulky for you to carry around while walking, then wifi is not for you either. Why? Because wifi is not readily available in all street corners, only at hotspots =) And this phone does have web browsing capabilities that you can access by subscribing internet through your mobile provider, which would probably be the best thing to do if you're a heavy web browser. But I bet you, a heavy web browser would only use their phone in a situation when it would be inconvenient for them to use their laptops (like when they're walking). But as soon as they reach a wifi cafe, guess what? They will pull that laptop out of the bag and put that phone in their pockets =)

then why the hell are you looking at this phone? oh wait there's mp3 and there's a camera.
ooohhhh you shouldn't get this phone.
samsung truly needs to redesign their cellphones. this looks exactly like the lg series that came out with the prada a few years ago in asia

pokpok: I couldn't of put that better myself!
If anyone is that bothered about wifi and surfing the net buy an internet tablet. Where the screen is big enough to actually see what your doing.
And the phone should be released in the UK around May/June time.

Who cares if this phone does not have wifi. Like you could ever get the complete functionalities & experience of web browsing through your phone, lol. NEVER. Web browsing through phones is for amatures who wants to download ringtones and wallpapers to their phones, lol. This phone is not for kids. It's for professionals who can afford a laptop and wants an elegant celphone. Serious web browsers would rather use their laptops, because web browsing through wifi phones gives you VERY LIMITED abilites, and is such an inefficient way to browse the web. Unless web browsing on phones can be as effective and efficient as web browsing on laptops, I think it should not be a major deciding factor in buying a phone. However, a good camera and MP3 player would be something that a phone can compete with standalones, both in functionality and performance. Now those two features should have the heavy weight on factoring which phone to buy =)
