      Hi, recently bought one. Phone is nice. But I have noticed one malfunction - if I set just GSM connection(not auto between GSM/WCDMA or just WCDMA) , it looses it in 24hrs, also disconnecting the SIM card. All I can do after that - just to reboot the phone.
      On WCDMA, which is 3G connection phone doesn't have problem to keep connection, the problem appears just when I set it just on GSM, which I usually would like to set when phone is just on idling state - in that way battery is saved. But I can't, as I don't know when I'll be out of connection. Can yoiu pls try yours in same way , setting it for GSM and leaving at least for 24hrs, to see if you don't have same problem ? If I set auto, then it usually connects to WCDMA..

        Ok Guys, I'm close to 6 months using my Galaxy Beam, and so far, I haven't got any bad issues to my phone. Like others says, Battery is superb, the Video great great great, and the projector, no fuss.

        Even though i bought this quite expensive, at least its worth it. and so limited here in the Philippines, only 200 stocks. Lucky for me.

        The memory, yeah its a 4GB, but c'mon, its better to save on external, so u can back up on PC.

        For the Camera Zoom, hey, There's Play Store, you should check it out.

        All i wanted is to have a tripod or a dock for my phone. and maybe a Boom Bass Speaker. I'm relieved!

                                6Gb RAM means 6Gbit so it is around 732MByte!
                                8GB storage capacity shared. 2GByte ROM for Android OS, and ~5.6GByte for user storage.

                                732Mbyte RAM shared on ~128MByte user space and ~600Mbyte RAM.

                                  It's the same for ram memory. You will see only 554MB,
                                  the rest is hiden and is for the system.

                                    The ram memory it's something else and it is 768 MB.
                                    Internal memory for storage is 8 Gb, and the OS is using 2 Gb, the rest 6 Gb is for your on bullshit.
