      I just want to know about the loud speaker quality of this phone. what about the sound quality when you play the songs through the loud speaker?. When you get the call at the time of traveling whether you can hear it or is there a chance of missing it

            Good news! There might be a software update for the Preston. Go to Youtube and seach "Samsung S5800 menu". It is the Preston with an updated FW and hopefully it will be available soon for us Preston owners.

                dont buy this pone in india (s5603) as the gps receiver is remoed in this model...i bought this phone and was disappointed on gs function....
                the internal memory is also downgraded to only 57mb and not 80mb.....
                instead buy s5233 with same configuration with bigger screen and low cost than s5603 .. except for 3g

                  And for people, who got scared of all such comments :

                  These all are minor software issues, not hardware ones. The firware updates may be made available by the samsung, if they think those really required.

                  So keep enjoying ur handset and have fun :)

                    Thankx for bringing your "discoveries" to us and establishing the fact for the preston, "a mobile which has not been thought through during the development process". For ur very kind information i must tell u, i use SGH-L700, and leaving apart the "in-call menu" and "msg copy-paste" thing, my cell firware behaves in exactly the same way as u mentioned in ur post about S5600. So do that mean i too use a copy of "a mobile which has not been thought through during the development process"??? Oh come onnnnn!!! I can't comment on "in-call menu" and "msg copy paste", since i haven't tried it myself as of yet. And u know it sounds so funny when u say a quickly desinged handset :)) Kindly be clear on your points and stop abusing the state of the art Samsung S5600. I m buying this beauty very soon n will definitely comment on it later :) So, people who wanted to buy it, please do not change ur minds and go for it :)

                    So cheeeeeeeeers!!!

                      Hello All

                      This will be my last post here in this forum.

                      Got the S5603 last 2 weeks before, for 12900INR with 4GB mem card. :)
                      After seeing two weeks perfomance, decided to give my opinion about this phone.
                      Pros
                      1) Excellent music quality (thnx to DNSe (Digital Natural Sound Engine)), found better than any express music.
                      2) Good camera stills even in dark.
                      3) Excellent touch screen, promt response even to slight touch.
                      4) Files received through Bluetooh goes directly to appropriate folder(music/photo/video), unlike nokia, in which these go to message inbox.
                      5) Good Battery back
                      6) Excellent Guesture Lock application.
                      7) good photo gallery / photo editor.
                      8) Excellent audio while in calls, seems like person you are talking is just besides you.
                      9) Excellent audio while in calls through headphone. ( use diff 3.5 mm phone from the one avl in pack).
                      10) Very nice Widget application.
                      11) photo contact for 20 contacts.
                      12) etc etc .............

                      Cons
                      1) No zoom in camera (hope will get in next Firmware upgrade)
                      2) Secondary camera only for Video calls.
                      3) No user defined Profiles.
                      4) Very less themes (only 2 with handset)
                      5) Message mem for 500 messages only (I got my message mem full on 4th day itself).
                      6) Poor 3GP(videos) quality, poor Video recording quality.


                      In all nice touch phone within Budget. Definately Go For It moblie for budget users....

                      Happy Browsing..............

                            I thought of buying this phone, and today only i saw your comments.
                            Now I'm very much confused whether to buy this or not..
                            Of course I have not yet operated this phone.
                            Will you please suggest me, shall I go for this or should I check any other phone..?
                            If possible, please give me your contact no. I want to talk to you.

                            Thank you.

                                I was wondering if anyone would suggest that I get some kind of protection for my phone like screen covers or cases? If so, which one? Thanks for your help! Love Georgia

                                    What was the point of that? Half those things you don't even need and my parents just paid loads of money for the Samsung Preston and now I am worried it won't work!

                                    Thanks a bunch!

                                      I am about to order the Samsung preston/s5600 and it has got a few bad reviews. I was wondering if anyone thinks it is a bad idea for me to get one because I would use it at school for messaging friends and calling. I would also like a game. I need quite a good camera because I am making a scrapbook. I had the Lg chocolate before but it broke. It doesn't necessarily have to be reliable but my contract is £15 a month for 24 months so I need it to be quite substantial.

                                      Open to any form of help!
                                      Cheers,
                                      Georgie xxx
