          Hi guys,

          When I receive MMS with this phone, it always automatically resize the picture to 5kb, Although on the message setting I put 300kb. What's up with this??? It's super annoying. I am using T mobile in U.S

            Spiros, 11 Apr 2010You are right, i did not describe it correctly... I mean... moreI didn't understand that either, since GSMArena's review has shots of the M8910 phonebook (page 3 of the review) and one of the names that shows up is "Fred Flintstone", which is 15 characters long.

                I meant that the phone shows only the first 12 letters of each name, which is a problem when it comes to long names...

                    Anyone knows if this phone is going to be discontinued? It no longer appears on the Samsung website, the price has dropped and Media Market no longer stocks it. If so, what model will replace it?

                      I have this device for over 3 months (previous phone SE K810i)...


                      PROS:

                      • Photo quality, colours, sharpness etc apart from the camera's 12 MPs.
                      • Great, great screen (response, sharpness and everything)!
                      • Xenon flash for photos & Led flash for videos
                      • WiFi
                      • Nice design
                      • Good size (BUT DO use a wrist leash to avoid dropping it)
                      • Good signal (could be a little better)


                      CONS:

                      • not a smartphone (but that would mean a higher retail price than 250 € ) – some internet pages won’t open up.
                      • Blurry video in night conditions (got to choose only between autofocus or facefocus !!! - both fail to do the job , even under substantial night lighting conditions)
                      • lower than average battery life last 2,5 - 3 days at most with average use (carries a 1000mAh battery when the SE K810i had a 950 mAh batt). Got to charge it every 2nd day .
                      • Uncomfortable screen unlocking (got to keep pressed the button - not working if you press at the same time the button for taking pictures, which isn't rare at all since it's placed on the other side of the phone).
                      • voice recording has a max limit of 60 minutes.
                      • confirmation of received msgs comes to you only in a msg form - got to delete 'em all the time!
                      • not loud enough ringtone.
                      • takes only 12 letter characters for names in phonebook agenda (SE K810 much more - come oooonnnnnnn!!!)
                      • when making a call via a Bluetooth set adjusting the volume is done only by the Bluetooth set & not the +/- device buttons.
                      • Alarm rings for only one time – does not repeat itself every few minutes till you wake up and close it down.


                      CONCLUSION:

                      This phone could be much better if SAMSUNG paid a little more attention to some silly I must say details (ex 12 letter characters for your phonebook contacts, alarm etc – that’s why every now and then I do miss my old SE K880i), BUT OVERALL it really is a very good device, PERFECT for those who are interested in accessing the internet for free (via WiFi) and at the same time have in their pocket the best for the time being mobile-phone camera.

                      If you want smartphone applications , buy a smartphone.

                                    In my opinion samsung rushed this fon and, i own it and i am so sad when i see it laying there with so much potential but wit so much restriction imposed on it. I say imposed becos this fon wants to be great and it has got the potential but samsung has really deprived this fon of the stage. this is why:

                                    12mp camera. This is the main feature, i go out clubbing with this fon and nt even the digital camera of my m8s can come close. Light, Dark once u know wat u doing takes beautiful pics. My love for this fon increases during the weekend.
                                    After we have had such a good time and its time to work i feel so sad becos its just laying there;

                                    1. NO SUPPORT FROM SAMSUNG
                                    2. I MEAN COME ON THIS IS THE WORLD'S FIRST 12MP PHONE THT IS COMPETING WITH DIGITAL CAMERAS....sorry these have to be in caps.
                                    3. BATTERY LIFE...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
                                    4. I MEAN THE WORLD FIRST PHONE TO STAND UP AND COMPETE WITH DIGITAL CAMERAS ISNT A SMART FON......aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (i will stop here cos this is what has killed this fon not mentioning lack of support from samsung).

                                    this fon is like having a friend who has the potential so sing, dance, saumersault, become a superstar bt his family wants him to stay and run the boring family business and they dont even give him a hand while hes at it!!!! im looking to getting the omnia hd anyways.

                                      this is the best phone on the market by far, only a couple of problems 1. there no straight edge so you can't stand the phone on its side to take a photo of you and friend etc 2. when you send a text message you can only send it to 10 people at a time. 3 no 3.5 audio plug in. apart from that 99% of you will be happy, touch screen is great. word of advice, buy a rubber case to go round it just in case you drop it.and befor anyone on says the sony satio does all this i'll say this, itsgot a straigh edge but touch screen is ok but software is pants and video is a joke, a 5 year old nokia has better video.
