Surely there must be a way of activating them. I checked out some demos on Youtube and still no mention of it, but noticed one user demonstrating images with the night time and sunset pics as options. Anyone any the wiser? Other than that more than pleased. Great phone.

            Hello People,

            Can someone confirm something for me please -
            Does the F480 suffer from the same poor in call volume as the Samsung U900 Soul?

              Just bought the phone yesterday.
              Pleased with it so far! Nice features, looks smart and I personally think it's a great multi-media phone. The photos look good, music player seems to be adequate and FM radio's a nice touch too.
              I've copied a few photos from my PC and they look excellent! The PC software is worth a mention. It's straight forward, simple to use and basically offers everything I could ask for.
              A couple of downsides to the phone though...
              I find the flat screen a bit difficult to text with, although I have just changed from a SPV-E650 which had a QWERTY keypad. Also, I came on this forum to find out about downloading extra applications to find a couple of people saying that it is not possible which is a real shame.
              If anybody knows otherwise I would appreciate a sharing of your wisdom!

              That's it from me!
              Overall I'd give it an 8.5 / 10

                  I have returned this after 4 days. Terrible battery life and UI is unbeliably frustrating.

                    Hi had my phone for 3 days, and so far I think I really like it. The only thing that baffles me is where does the phone get the backgrounds for the "hold" screen. There is some pics that is not in any of the phones folders. I want to take out some images as I dont want the flower pics :/

                        I was considering LG Viewty but i wasnt keen on the fact that it was LG, same features and alot better brand/reliability. I would gladly own this phone :)

                          The F480 will not work with stylus, as the touch screen is design to react to the tip of the your fingers only. There is an upcoming version for China market, however, that will. I will be waiting for that one ;) patience is a virtue!

                              Hi guys, had the phone for a few days now and it is just fantastic. Head and shoulders above everything else.

                              Just one question though, can anyone advise on whether samsung sell a stylus compatible with this phone?

                                Other than that I think the phone is perfect.

                                  The Camera on the front is for using 3G Video Calling, and as for the dialing display - the colour is fixed and cant be changed. I think in the GSMArena review it also mentions this. It is confusing as the menus are virtually identical to other sammy phones, which do include the themes option. Sadly, the 480 doesnt

                                        I think the T Mobile assistant told you to change it to ‘GSM’ and not 'GPS'. I don’t know how you do this on the F480, but I do know how to this on my MDA Vario III.

                                        Glad you finally got the phone. I'll be purchasing it in a couple of weeks though
