Received my beam today but am having trouble trying to play some mp4 files. They worked fine on my acer liquid but they are listed as unsupported file format in beam. When i tried to open them using rock player they shutter quite badly too.
Worked fine in the liquid... any have any ideas? similar cpu speed too hmm
yeah is just like iphone4
I would be very happy with the phones camera were the fram rate smooth, with good detail, minimal noise if it were on par with the Galaxy S. From what I have seen the Galaxy S is on par with the Iphone 4 & seems to retain a smoother fram rate aswell. It depends on the handset, most are great with the odd few dropping frames etc...
So take a look a loads of Galaxy S videos, then take a look at the beams videos then tell me if you prefer the Galaxy S to the BEAM. I can say Galaxy S for certain!
Sorry that I am expressing my concert so much, but this is unnacpetible for a device so many people had high hopes for to replace their 5800XM or other music phones, sub par camera is not the way to sell this phone SAMSUNG?
It is questionable as to what CCD image sensor, optical lens has been employed in this phone. We know that the camera has a higher Mp, but the Mp is unimportant. For now the Wave & Galaxy S employ the same optical lens, CCD image sensor at 5Mp & the quality is easily discernable. You just can not accept the amount of artifact compression noise, dropped frames that are very visible, laggy especially in low light. Maybe the CPU is the cause or the bottlneck, but I should think the 720Mhz CPU can handle 1280x720P should it not? If this is the case, then the CCD, lens or some other anomoly is the cause for the poor Video qualitywhich isn't HD!
So I got mine in yesterday. Had it for one day. The next day it froze on me, so I tuned off cell. Afterwards, it would not boot up. it got stuck on the "Android" logo loading screen. I did the usual.. remove battery and after a few retrys, it failed to boot up. Sad now, I have to send it back to Samsung. When it was working, the projector was cool!!
thanks for the link man :)
KL, 31 Jul 2010I do not know about video in but if you do have a device with DLNA (for example windows media ... morek i did some googling
yeah i think i'll be able to use my pc as a DLNA server
however i dont get how it really work(short on time to google, )
so can i stream live stuff? an example, can i stream watever im doing on the pc, to the mobile's projector? :)
thats exactly wat i want.. i can just connect wii to the pc, and run at fullscreen (i dont have a tv atm)
some sites said that wii got Dlna :S, i dont think but anyhow, if so, would it connect to the beam(via server)?
i know its a bit offtopic, but this is the ONLY thing keeping me from buying the beam :)

Worst is that it was released in Singapore via StarHub and its even removed from their website as of this morning(could be earlier I checked today after couple of days)
Hey people, I have my doubts but I think an app could be made to use the Beam as an input for the projector. Eg projecting your computer screen into the projector.
Feasible?
imagine the beam with froyo it become just like a galaxy S hé hé
improved video too :P
But now when i look to exemples i see the beam is more better than htc and my htc desire after update of froyo too ;)
[deleted post]Oh, well yeah, HTC seems outclassed in regards of the video recording, guess the situation is the same with photo quality. Hmm but comparing these videos to wave and galaxy s, hmm, I think they're about the same and it's hard to tell which one's look better, cause no direct comparison has been made. :/ I don't think it's recording is worse than wave or galaxy s.

give this a try first , if its still worst, then curse again :D
I found some more youtube videos for Beam. Comparing them to the iphone 4. The beam doesn seem to have some more noise over iphone 4 or galaxy wave, samsung s. But what do you think? For me it could have been better!

Video 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HbJuQzh_X4&feature=related
I just hope that the code *28*346# for louder music works on this phone.
anyone knows if there is a video in, for the projector
for example, if i want to connect a gameconsole(playstaion/wii etc) or a simple satalite receiver ..
