    bought this piece of crap a week back...
    they say it has the gps but seems like nobody can get it to work.
    audio quality is ok but the volume level is way too low.
    does not work as smooth as it should even with very less applications loaded.
    sound clarity in the call is very bad.. sometimes cant even understand what the other person is speaking on the other side.
    overall very bad phone... RUN AWAY FROM SAMSUNG .....

          Hi Samsung I5801 Galaxy users, can anyone tell me whether this mobile is having office application. I mean whether this mobile can both read and edit MS Office documents (Excell, Word, PPT).

          I will decide to buy this mobile if it has this this feature.

          I would like to also know how this mobile is functioning, in terms of battery backup, display, music, videos . Also anything else which you feel is good in this mobile.

              Hi All,

              Even after reading the bad things about this set i bought it as my phone was not working and i was already in search of some low cost Android good version phone. so below are the issues which i would like to share with all-
              1- When i bought this set it was really very fast. next day after installing few applications it went slow. i checked the applications running and found that many applications were on. i killed them but after some time they were back. tried my best to keep them away but they are again running in back ground... this is really not acceptable.
              2-i logged out of mail and chat also auto login was cancelled but it still logs automatically but as i am not in wifi range it is useless. cud not find how to get rid of it.
              3- screen is really a mess. it gets dirty in few touch.
              4- 1500 mAH is really not felt anytime as this does not give really that much backup.
              5- i cud not access inbuilt memory. camera is good but poor if used in little low light.
              6-speaker is not good at all when compared to its class and cost. even micromax is giving awesome speaker phones.
              7- could not find how to disable the thread view of sms as it compromises the privacy as one can see entire chat with any of the contacts.
              8- Gtalk is really strange. it does not shows the chat in proper sequence. my text was shown at the bottom of the page where as my friend's last text was just above mine first. so it is not normal at all.
              this i have seen in 2 days of uses. will update with more.

                    BoB, 15 Nov 2010on what basis u said dat Motorola XT3, Quench has bad displ... moreeven if it has a gorilla glass but it is fingerprint prone...no way you can say its a gorilla glass...

                    Moto xt3 is sold under lots of names.here are some of the names....

                    Motorola Quench XT3 XT502
                    Gigabyte GSmart G1305
                    Vibo A688
                    Orange Boston/Optimus Boston
                    CSL Mi 300

                    hence its a cheap chinese crap....so galaxy 3 fans stay away from it...and ranging thunder games is running very well,u just need to get the right version...dats it!!!

                      This is my first samsung phone after using 6 of a leading finnish brand.
                      Have had it for 25 days now and totally happy with it. Few cons though: no secondary camera, no flash, poor sunlight visibility, kies is a resource hog.
                      That said, looks, size, weight, build quality, speed are top class and it has the best feature set for the price. Android Eclair OS is really sweet and yummily intuitive. Excellent choice of apps and games on the Market.
                      About the battery: Manual says charging complete if indicator stops moving. But charge it till you get a notification message of battery 100% and it should last around 3 days of non-intensive usage.
                      Also it comes with a 2gb sandisk card. Suggest to get a lanyard cable and use it... saved mine from a few slip and falls.
                      Its value for money and highly recommended.

                            vimal, 15 Nov 2010moto uses the same chinese hardware with the MSM qualcomm 6... moreon what basis u said dat Motorola XT3, Quench has bad display do u even know about Gorilla Glass display it is only used on hi end phones like the i-phone and sone new nokia and cheak da differance between resolution Motorola XT3 has 320 x 480 pixels,in da same 3.2 inches, dat means moer pixl density & the pro!! ! many htc use dat same pro. and samsung even has the same brand only specia has samsung s own 800mhz pro but dat also more weaker than its 667 mhz qualcomm. dats why specia is discontinued. comparing to moto i5801 has 67mhz extra pro but try to run Raging Thunder 2 on i5801. it will never show cars in full color all cars r white. but on moto u can easily run it u can check YouTube for i5801 Raging Thunder 2 demo. and u dont have to believe me just try to search some older posts u can see many people are telling da same.

                              Friends,

                              I was looking for last 3 months on review of this phone, I was to impressed with specs of this one.But suddenly I come to know that it have a very bad problem of call drop in 2-3 mins , unless you disable the data sync.

                              For that reason only I am taking step backwards from this mobile.I am looking to have LG GT540, which was released earlier than this mobile & have no problem reputation till date.

                              Friend please suggest me if I taking any wrong decision...
