    Nokia NSeries + Nokia ESeries = Samsung i550W

    It's call "When multimedia meets bussiness"

    It's a high quality balanced phone with all in one feature in cheap price. Highly RECOMMENDED from Nokia lover...

      Cheers too anonymous!

      My sincere apologies for
      picking your comment right away.

      it was too rush for me
      to take on the attack mode immediately.

      with regards to your concern
      on the firmware availability
      over the net, i suspect samsung company
      does not readily make it obtainable
      for the reason that they dont want to void
      any possible warranty by indiscriminately switching from one firmware to another. it is available and readily offered in its certified samsung service centers. there, before downloading the latest firmware, you'll get your phone assessed too. this by which is another prudent and commendable customer service gesture from samsung.

      my apologies for picking you right away.

      anyhow, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and observation.

      CHEERS!!!

        i550 user, 25 Aug 2008POOR SUPPORT for samsung phones? come on guys! the comm... moreI did not come here to argue with anybody else, nor did I say I hate samsung. What I didnt like is 1 week after I purchased this phone, i found out that they (samsung) has no online SW upgrading. I cannot admit that i550w's SW is perfect. It still needs improvement. If ever samsung releases upgrade, you have to go to their service center. Unlike some other phone where you can do-it-yourself anywhere, anytime as long as you have PC with internet connection. My brother's samsung D880 needs to be updated due to crashes. He brought it to samsung svc center. He was surprised when they charged him 1,000 bucks because its 1-year warranty was lapsed. Anyway, this phone is already with me (my first samsung phone) so i have to take care of it. You might be a help to me, do you know where to download the latest firmware for DX region? I've read that with this firmware, the GPS key is remappable & more improvements. Thank you in advance. CHEERS!

          POOR SUPPORT for samsung phones?
          come on guys!
          the comment on samsung's "poor support"
          for its firmwares are a bit out of place.
          perhaps, other phome manufacturers may have
          a handful of available updates on their lines
          of phones may be because their firmwares are out of date. thus, the explanation of available firmware updates.

          samsung may presently have no immediate
          available update for the reason that
          their in-phone firmwares are up-to-date.

          this is the reason why.

          samsung rules. this noise is a slight hiccup for this phone compared crashing applications and softwaress in some phones out there.

                                      I just bought this phone, and i really love it, but I have a problem. When calling I hear some kind of noise in the first seconds of the call?
                                      They´ve already substituted the phone in the store, but the problem also happens. What´s the solution for this problem? Must I try another phone?
