Even I was very upset with the sound quality with the headsets provided, however today I tried using my creative headphones with it... and trust me... there were no complains.Its not out of the world but surely a good one!!Hope this works for you. FYI to all... make sure that you do not keep this phone out of your covers while not in use coz the back cover is a scratch magnet!!! Black one will faint soon while white seems to last a lil longer. You may get a protector if you find one :)

Infact is as good as N91, the best ever music phone. If don't believe me, search and find RMAA results and compair all the three and find the answer yourself. Of-course you need good 3rd party headphones before you can experiance the real quality.

        Anonymous, 16 Aug 2008wot is da defualt phone lock code for samsung i450......Its not dificult but rather tricky. Default Phone Lock code is "00000000" but if you enter a wrong code 5 times, phone goes to lock state. In that case you need to wait for 5 miniuts in switch on condition. If you switch off in this condition, the counter will reset and again you have to wait for 5 miniuts after switching and keeping it on. This sound funny but make sense espically if some one in your office try to misuse your phone when find it for some time may be when you left it on your desk for toilet.

            Anonymous, 15 Aug 2008Chaitanya, dont fool the people around because you have N81... moreThe N81 has been proven to be better at audio quality and at being a good music device than i450 many times, i suggest you get over it and accept it,the i450 is just a cheaper downgraded version of the N81. The N81 is a far better Multimedia device than a i450 thats the truth. Theres a thread at M-R talking about what phone is best at Music, so far the N81 and N91 are at the top, followed by Serenta and i450. This thread at M-R is over 15pages long with around 15 replies a page,and many audiophiles agree that the N81 is better.

                        After using and experimenting this phone around two weaks, I have different conclusion for this phone camera. Actually there is a better way to use i450 camera for much better reasults. Here are the conclusion...

                        The camera of SGH-i450 seems to have following 2 basic problems.

                        1. Single point Fixed Focus at around F/3.3 and
                        2. Attenuated Color Response

                        However on experimenting, I found that it also have some good things that can be easly missed by normal approach.

                        1. Very Good Quality 16x Digital Zomm with Small Jpeg compression ratio and
                        2. Good Dynamic range

                        Since it has a fixed focus around F/3.3, It can only focus properly the objects those are niether too close nor too far. It shoots best between 3 to 12 feet range at its best. So to take close up photos, from a distance and use 2 or 4 x digital zoom with Light metering set to centre weighted or spot for very close range in Image Settings.

                        For Landscape Scenary shooting, Change the Light metering setting to Matrix and preform sharpening of Image using Paint shop Pro or Photoshop for best reasults.

                        Since images lack color, use automatic saturation enhancement set to more colorful with normal bais and enhance the color details of your Image using Paint Shop Pro Software taking the advantage of good dynamic range.

                        Another thing I would like to tell, since the Camera sensor is slow and has no Image steblizer in the camera software, wait for around 10 seconds before you shoot after pointing and also make sure that there is no movement of any thing coming in the range of shooting target since it will disturb the sensor as it has fixed focus and all is seen through same.

                        Try these things and you will be surprised with the reasults in mant occasions for sure.

                        Thanks.

                          Chaitanya, 15 Aug 2008Nothing is better then N81 in sound Quality ! :-DChaitanya, dont fool the people around because you have N81. It is only an avarage preformer in sound quality whereas i450 is amoungst kings like N91.

In your budget you have to consider one of them. If you are buying for Music, Samsung SGH-i450 with 3rd party headphones is the best. For better camera quality and decent music quality, choose W760. For Gamming, forget both and go for N81 at the cost of music and camera both. For all the three things with good quality go for N91 which is not easly available. So decide yourself what you need to do and be sure that you are not going to get them all in one package.

The best headset so far I have tested is Shennesier MX 160 followed by Nokia HS-62 followed by Nokia HS-28. Keep in mind that since the audio amplifier dont pumps too much power hence you need a headphone with high SPL (Ideal 109 db/mW) and 32 Ohms Impedance to avoid waste and get maximum out of our battary. Of course you should also look for good frequency response and low distortion figures (at least less then 0.5%) or you will kick yourself. Note that headphones of above specs are not easly available in market and are costly too.

                                    N81 Vs I450 :-D

                                    Well, both of the cameras the pack are crap
                                    IMO...

                                    They are both really nice phones, but the samsung has better battery life, making for a better music player. It's also a lighter (The n81 weighs 140g, but the i40 weighs 114g).

                                    As for the sound quality, GSM arena says: "Being able to listen to your favorite tracks is one thing but playing them properly is completely different. We were more than glad to realize that Nokia N81 is good at both. Our audio quality test showed very good results and convinced us that Nokia N81 is a real step forward for Nokia in this aspect"

                                    http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n81_8gb-review-180p5.php

                                    And the i450: "Being able to listen to your favorite tracks is one thing but playing them properly is completely different. We were somewhat surprised to see that the results of Samsung i450 weren't the best around - and that's something unusual for the South Korean manufacturer."

                                    http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i450-review-200p5.php

                                    I would take the Nokia... I, honestly, have never been a fan of Samsung phones.
