      It is very good set but when it shows Call Ended on Even not recieved calls it realy harms my mind I have to rethink no loud speaker but it is enough in its price ird port only for recieving data from pc only, very low Battery timings.

        This phone is for smsing & cheap gaming. My key concern was memory while selecting the phone & its value for money, useless for basic functions of a phone.

          hi everyone,
          all are talking about the IR port in this cell phone,
          after trying it I can say it works perfectly but not with all IR devices.
          For example, I tried it with my IR device but it didn't work. After that I tried it with a IR device of my friend it worked well.

                Hi,

                It's a good phone, but IR doesn't work.

                I have IrDA and I have installed " SGH-C230 Samsung PC Studio PIMS & File Manager (ver.II 1.0)" in my PC. but still it doesn't work. Can anyone help me please ?

                Thanks.

                  I have bought it. It has rather disappointe me. Surely ringtone volume is low as compared to other sets or the same price. Navigation is poor. Infrared port is very very dull and lousy. what more can i say

                    I have had this phone for a week and find it user friendly. It serves my needs well. I am not one who goes for camera, 3G etc...so this phone is perfect.

                    Would be better if navigation was easier and if it has ringtone profiles.

                    Will give it a 7 out of 10

                          Just one word for this phone .. AWESOME !!!

                          Pros:
                          A very good buy at around 4k .. very slim n elegant in design. So light that at times i forget that i have my cell in my hand. Screen color is gr8. Battery life seems to be around 2 days (i use the fm almost 4 hrs daily). Fits in ur palm smartly.

                          Cons:
                          1> I had only one thing in my mind while selecting the cell. The FM should sound good. It has satisfied my needs 101%. I have seen ppl commenting about the poor standard of the FM, but as per my view its the best sound (comparable to sony ericsson k750i) at this price and equally competent with the costlier models.

                          2> I havent yet tested the IR compatibility with my laptop, once i do i'll get back with the review.

                          3> One major thing it lacks is the bluetooth. But what more can we ask at so less cost !!

                          4> Simple phone functionalities like profile settings etc are lacking (miss a few more such shortcuts which are present in nokia)

                          5> Keypad is small and problematic in typing large sms. Then i am not a habituated sms-er ..


                          All in all i can say that if your budget is

                                  Andy just said ,this model IR cant work wif other models-NK or Moto, thats a shame. I was thking of buying dis, but now I better abort my idea..maybe better go for Moto XX.
                                  SS c120 also v basic , no IR, no radio. Oh SS is not up to scratch !!

                                    Nice phone in less price, most of the ppl complain about its infra red but i tell you there is no trouble with its infra.
                                    those having trouble with its infra-red comm with pc should download the samsung software from samsungs website:

                                    http://www.samsung.com/in/support/productsupport/download/Model_Select2.aspx?type=GSM&subtype=GSM&model=SGH-C230&fileType=SW&LSSI=/in/module/ssi/left/lmenu_gsm_gsm.sec&RSSI=/in/module/ssi/right/rmenu_gsm.sec

                                    if this link does not work then try searching the following executables from on internet:
                                    1. SGH-C230 Samsung PC Studio PIMS & File Manager (ver.II 1.0) PC Link Software (for transfor of PIMS)
                                    2. SGH-C230 Samsung PC Studio Image Editor (ver.II 1.0)
                                    3. SGH-C230 Samsung PC Studio Internet Access (ver.II 1.0)
                                    4. SGH-C230 Samsung PC Studio USB Driver (ver.II 1.0)

                                    you dont need the 4th item if you are communicating with ir port of ur phone.

                                    i my self can transfer pims data from phone. i had to just install the 1st software.

                                    good luck
