now this is what i call a user review!! nice... by prashanth...hope it benefits you guys too!!
Guyz!!!
This mobile phone rocks! I just bought it last weekend for Rs. 4800/- incl. taxes.
I recharged battery overnight - for more than 12 hrs. (Believe me, do this for first 3-4 times and you will get better results with your battery afterwards; i tried it on several handsets already. This is just personal opinion by the way!)
Battery is just awesome. Its been two days since the first full charge and only bar gone off from battery indicator (Four more left!!)
My usage as below (for two days):
=================================
Call time - 1 hr
Messages - 15
Listening to music - more than 1 hr.
Bluetooth handsfree connected - 3 hrs.
Other plus points (i mean at this price, seriously!)
====================================================
Great BATTERY so far!
Great display - 2.2" screen, good color/brightness ratio. Comparatively good image rendition.
Great body - Slim, Steel back, handy and looks rich due to more metal.
Audio output (3.5 inch jack) - GREAT...use good quality headsets. Not the ones which come bundled! Don't compare the music quality to SE, Nokia phones which are dedicated to music only. They cost lot more!
Speaker output - Strong. You would probably not miss any call in crowded area also.
Call recording - Yes (this is standard feature in many phones but in few samsung metro series, this function was missing; i was irritated then!)
Camera - 3.2 MP at this price and that too very good quality. No red spots and noise seen when I copied photos to my laptop. I believe it is much better than many other 3/5 MP cameras.
Universal MicroUSB port for charging and connectivity (No SAMSUNG propriety port!)
Some Limitations (it doesn't matter much for me!)
=================================================
Not so comfy keypad for people who likes to text continuously. Keys are plain and no bumps on keys for easy press. However, it still work nicely, once you get used to it.
No feature to create new customized themes (its available in other metro series)
MicroSD slot has no separate opening. Need to open battery cover.
No picture editor! (Can't rotate, resize the pictures). Rely on your PC.
No additional fonts (By this time Samsung should start providing font change option in non-touch handsets also)
Average video recording quality but workable at times.
=====================================================
I hope this provides good and comprehensive review to any of you who are looking forward to buy handset in the range of Rs. 5000/- or less.
Good Night!

Why would you buy this phone instead of the Nokia 5630? it lags the WiFi and the dual LED flash plus the great 600 MHz CPU

this mobile is nice....but it has a problem...it can't take too much stress of downloading and transferring data over bluetooth is slow(except with samsung).Otherwise its good. and it is not 8GB, it is 16GB expandable. very soft keys, picture quality is good, high voice clarity and the sound of the ear phone is crystal clear, battery backup good,1 hour voice recording. and it has a screen cover which is very thin. all over its a sophisticated and user friendly phone for those who loves to use cell.

Will someone who already buy this phone, please write about the call quality and earpiece loudness, speaker loudness, build quality? Is it really made of metal, if so which part? How is the music in the music player? Please explain with your answer.
Thanks for you answers in advance.

This mobile phone rocks! I just bought it last ... moreMy friend you have given quiet a lot of information regarding this handset, that I was looking for throughout the web, but with no luck. I am planning to buy this handset recently as soon as it launches here in Thailand they say around 30 to 31st December. I am an Indian but live here. Can you post some real picture of the handset or email me. Please will you describe in details about the call quality and the earphone (not speaker) volume. I will be thankful to you if you can provide the information.
Thank you.
