I compared this to my Innov8, the OLED makes the screen much better than mine but its too bad it hasnt got symbian OS. The touchscreen works fantastic, better then Pixon or Nokia's 5800.
Wifi is not a missing feature IMO

Hi,
Although i knew innov8 has symbian OS while S8300 doesnt.
But i'm really curious which is better..
in terms of user friendliness...
bcoz i do keep my nails long, hence the keypad gotten be slightly sensitive (soft pad) so i don't have to keep pressing the keys hard...
and also i tend to open files like MS word and txt or even adobe...
which has the best functions?
any idea?

Anonymous, 31 Mar 2009they call it ultra TOUCH with capacitive touch!!
but with ... moreAnybody who has used a touch screen only phone will now know after months of use that it is impossible to text or email anywhere near as quick without a keypad or keyboard therefore Samsung has produced exactly what all you "Noobs who have just got a touch screen phone and think it's ace!" will want when you see sense!
You watch, the manufacturers will all follow suit long term. Fact is: You cant live without a keypad/keyboard!
Touchscreen + keypad = Samsung is forward thinking!
You can disagree all you want but you will one day realise they were right and the others will soon follow....

i love it! had it 3 days now.
had htc touch hd and that showed how much we still need keypads whether its qwerty or 4x3 like this. only for texting though.
in internet browser, swipe finger left across text box to bring up virtual pad with backspace if you make an error. once you get used to it it's a highly usable phone and allround its superb.
few features would be nice such as:
1. widget order being saved when you power off so dont have to rearrange everytime you turn it on!
2. hotmail capability
3. youtube video upload widget or shortcut either through the pixshare feature or standalone
4. the widget sidebar could be a continuous cycle of scrolling so when it gets to the end it coninues as though at the beginning.
5. ability to change screensaver image rather than it randomly selecting from preloaded factory images
6. non wap website usage in the browser, like opera mobile browser
few little niggles but name the perfect phone?! if there was one we would all have it!!!
this my first samsung after going through 12 years of the mainstream nokias, sony ericssons and htc smartphones and i think this is a superb phone. the screen quality is just sublime!!

I got this phone 3 days ago and was so looking forward o having the flexibility of having buttons with the added plus of it being a touch screen.
however it has been a real let down. Some fucntions will not work unlss you slide the phone up, the video recording is appauling with a terrible feedback sound when replaying and massive soung cut outs so half the video is unbearable to watch and the other half you cant even hear.
Also, Ive noticed that there is no way to edt text whilst typing on the internet. I could be wrong but there doesnt seem to be a delete button ,so everytime I make a mistake in web address or typing an email i have to refresh the page and start from scratch. sooo frustrating. if anyone knows how to edit can you pls post??!
I am considering sending this phone back really. its just not what is promises and I reckon that there are better phones in the pipeline from samsung which will be released in the next 6 months which I hope will be a vast improvement from this one!

Hello Friends,
I Would like to know, how is the sound quality when recording video (is a lot of noise listened?).
I had the i8510 and the sound of video recording was horrible!, and now I want a mobil phone with good camera (8 / 5 mpx.) and very good video recording with good audio. Can they help me? Thank you very much!
