After that, one can predict that hardware wise jet is better than x6 at the same price. So go for jet.

    azimuth thruster, 13 Jun 2010well i am not sure about that thing because personaly am no... moreYa, you are right about the processor stuff. The thing is that if you enable flash animations then it surely eats a lot of processor power. The dolphin browser in jet is a little annoying as it looks a bit dull and eats a whole lot of ram. But you can install opera browser to get the great looks. But there is a little problem. Since 'opera mobile', which has web flash compatibility, is only available for smartphones so 'opera mini 5', which is for java enabled mobiles (jet for example), does not allow to view flash (no full youtube support). Although you can use dolphin browser to view youtube. Then there will be a problem of 'out of memory'. So basically jet is not perfect for web browsing. Still its way better than x6. And what about omnia 2, as i mentioned earlier in this forum. Can't you extend you budget to reach it. Let me know.

      Sbdevilmind, 13 Jun 2010You are right about the specs. Jet is double in everything,... morewell i am not sure about that thing because personaly am not realy aftering for those more apps and etc.coz i do more on browsing and it needs high processor, for me i do prefer jet than nokia though its not an smart phone but it has as fast processor it can process more than x6 can do, i am also refernig to my brothers phone his phone is 5800xm almost the same with x6. i asked him if his phone is not laggy or slow? he answerd me its just fine wifi is OK but its better to look for highr processor than this. it means that his not satisfied with its action to process or its just slow? what do you say?

Jet is double in everything, be it processor or ram..etc. But the thing i am trying to say is that a non smartphone device is likely to bore you real soon. A smartphone, because of its vast software support, is less likely to bore you since you get to discover new features and stuff every few days. What do you say.....

                azimuth thruster, 12 Jun 2010are you an X6 owner? how about the camera on it? is it OK? ... moreYeah, thats the very reason my brother opted for jet. If you ain't a geek then jet is great. X6 camera is good as it too is of 5mp. But maybe not as good as jet. My brother don't let me touch his jet too often so i don't get to use the camera and do a quality check on my pc. But jet's camera is better in video recording though. By the way, why don't you raise your budget a bit and go for omnia 2. It looks exactly same as the jet with a lot larger screen and a smartphone of course. Check its review in this site.

                    azimuth thruster, 12 Jun 2010ty for the reply. ^_^ but if ill ask you which one is bette... moreWell, if you are willing to compromise for a lesser screen resolution 640x360 of x6 vs 800x480 of jet, and a little boring interface of x6, then x6 is much better than jet in other category. Don't forget that x6 is a smartphone and jet isn't. X6 has no restrictions whatsoever. I don't own a jet, my brother does. If i had to choose between these two then i will surely go for x6. It looks a lot better than jet and i like to install softwares. So if you want freedom to do anything with your mobile, be it multimedia or softwares, then go for x6 but if you want a cooler interface and a little higher resolution with no high end software support then jet will suffice.

                                If the battery life is not lasting what samsung is advertising, send it back and get it fixed.

                                My jet lasted 18h without any use. I sent it back and they changed the circuit card, updated the software and re-wrote the IMEI.

                                I've red about other people going through the same process.

                                    I bought this phone for about a week and I discovered that the battery's life is horrible. Jet is an awesome phone (functions) but the short battery's life makes it unbearable. I seriously regretted buying Jet.
