13 February, 2010
That first Bada-running handset by Samsung is certainly impatient to go public. After we saw it advertised on billboards yesterday, it now made a live appearance and revealed a large part of its specs sheet...

            Nice Phone Specs! But Samsung has lousy OS. Takes forever just to text, surf, connect to wifi, etc.

                      The UI doesnt look like anything special, looks just lke their touchwiz. I thought they would try to compete with Apple and Google....

                        People,hold your horses! Wait to see if third party developers jump on the Bada bandwagon and make something useful of another piece of hardware...

                                Does look like a high-end phone. It actually looks better than the Omnia 2, which I just sold a couple weeks ago. The Omnia is sexy but it's all plastic so it was slippery, especially with its large display. The processor should make this phone one of the fastest around. Looks great, but after I went back to a hardware keyboard again with the N97 mini (after three straight touchscreen-only phones) I don't think I'll ever go without a hardware keyboard again. Nokia definitely isn't the flashiest company right now, but Maemo 6 and their reworking of Symbian (and let's not forget free Ovi maps) could really boost them back to the forefront, because their high-end phones are still the most jack-of-all-tradish at the moment.

                                    Tempered glass front, now that's something, but don't knock it it the wrong way, it will explode in your face, looks good!

                                      So is this the handset that has the super bright amoled which is far brighter than the iphone screen?

                                        Tipical samsung phone...good specs on paper ...not so good performance on real life... and as always a outdoors direct sunlight nightmare screen...that mirror like finish is not a good idea these days considering the poor legibility under direct sunlight of amoled screens...keep trying samsung...someday you`ll make a perfect phone.
