Weel if you like a phone that can play games and take good pictures this is a very good phone for that but if you want to use emails good luck. i had this phone for two weeks and had to return it due to email issues and softwar bugs, the phone is very slow.

    Christian, 22 Oct 2010I am worried about the sound ..... how is the sound ... is ... moreThe sound quality on the speaker is surprisingly clear compared to other handheld devices I have used. Listening to the radio / music player on just the phone speaker is definitely plausible.

                                Maybe caller ID only exist if you get it with a plan.

                                  I was just reviewing Samsungs website and stumbled upon something that disturbs me a little:

                                  www.samsung.com, choose mobile, all phones, choose the i896, which is pretty much the i897.

                                  Choose specs, go straight to the bottom of the page inside 'Call functions', and it says NO Caller ID? Huh?
