    I got this phone..... Extreamly low power consumption of Wi-Fi and no need to manually connect Wi-Fi.... it is really convenient to use Wi-Fi with low power consumption.

          Just a simple advice: don't buy it now. Wait a few months, when the hardware and firmware bugs will be fixed. Every phone has bugs. And it will be cheaper too. And there will be more apps too, more colors...

                  my friend got it & i liked it but icon placing n widgets, home screen is not impressive.. it feels childish.. built quality isn't really good considering price tag but sound, display are positives.i

                        On a scale from 9 to 10 Samsung S8500 gets a 9. Legen - waait for it - daaary Amoled screen, tha colours are amazing. You can see everything under the direct sunlight. The phone is ultrafast, excellent ergonomics. The battery can handle 2 days of extensive usage, 3 days of normal use. Some neet applications, obviously, Samusung has to enlarge their number. I am pretty much into photography, so the camera played a significant role in making the decision, what phone to choose. Samsung really nailed it! You can control ISO, WB, Flash, not to speak about the video-recording, which is "un vrai chef-d'oeuvre". With Samsung S8500 you can forget about Lightroom and Photoshop - the phone provides splendid photo editing. The speaker is perfect, I had to turn it down not to get deaf. THe webrowser is very good-looking. Highly recommended, iPhone is nervously smoking outside and biting its fingernails.

                                This is the type of phone I've been looking for. It looks like an actual phone that will be comfortable to use while on call. Does anyone know when it'll be available in Canada? Thank you in advance. :)

                                Cheers
