      This is a low budget phone. Don't expect it to perform/function better against more expensive phones. What I like most is the size of it, I'm able to glide my thumb all over the screen comfortably while holding it firmly with one hand. The galaxy mini is abit too wide for that and sports a 256k color screen where smaller texts will look jaggy and pictures with gradient will have very obvious banding.

                  I bought the Galaxy 5 (GT-I5503) this year, Feb. 2011. Last week, the phone stopped working on me. On taking it to the service center, I was shown a black spot on the PCB stating that water seeped in and I was told its water damage. I ensure that the phone is never exposed to water and I argued the same however the service center was adamant and additionally said the warranty is not supported for water damage. There is no way for me to prove that the phone was never exposed to water. Now I am told I need to change the PBA (the board) which costs Rs. 3525.00. This is a very bad experience I have had in phones especially Samsung for which I paid Rs. 8900 in Feb. So guys beware when you buy a Samsung when they tell you that you have a 1 year warranty. Read the fine print since the company will try to wriggle out of it by giving you excuses.

                        mickyz, 12 Aug 2011hello every1 i am planning to buy this cellphone but i str... moreI am not an expert, but i have this phone and i listen music on it the whole day.so, everything i will say its only MY opinion
                        1 - the quality is good , only the groove arent so good, but its probably Mp3 problem, not of the phone itself, and the loudness is good enough to dont let you listen anything else around.
                        2 - the camera is good enough too, and you only wanna daytime , its gonna be ok, cause it doesnt have flahslight
                        3 - = answer 1
                        4 - when i try to play heavy games like ,Inotia3 it hangs frequently, with normal stuffs its works smoothly

                        sorry about english, good luck on your next phone !!

                          a very good phone ,worth more than his price.
                          The only problem is the low battery life, if you listen music a big part of your day(starting 8am) you gonna need recharge it around 7~8pm.

                              Hi all,

                              I successfully installed the CynogenMod-7.1.0 RC1 - Madteam version of Gingerbread(2.3.5) in my Galaxy 5.

                              I notice the following abnormalities in this rom,

                              1. GPS doen't seem to connect.
                              2. Phone restarts after switching on the wifi tethering.
                              3.GPRS (Edge)Speed seems to be reduced.

                              Have anyone tried this rom? Any similar issues?

                              Kudos!!!

                              PS: The interface for Gingerbread is gr8 and hats off for the old tv fashioned screen off and on...! I'm loving it!!!

                                I have one. The battery life is very short. If you used this mobile, you have put on charge every day.

                                      Any problem until now. I get time to discover how to setup 3g access. But after that works fine.
