I don't think all the review sites are holding back the Wave reviews just because they are lazy or just for fun. GSMArena reviewed Galaxy S earlier probably just because Samsung made it available to them.

No site is reviewing Wave, because they can't get a hold of it. Now why is that? It seems like Samsung doesn't want to send copies of the Wave before it has hit the markets for some reason.

So I guess the review sites are going to have to buy one themselves to review it.

            @ scoopyscoopy x$kk.. Its not review but the preview on early wave prototype that has, I think, has gone through extensive changes, e.g. The prototype doesnt have a functional camera or even a dedicated camera key, unable to make call or send sms or e.mail and some physical change as well.. So dont refer people to that incomplete preview when final version of Wave is selling out in the market..

                  I agree.. GSMArena is taking a long time to post the review..The Galaxy S hasn't been released n they published the review for that.. I really need more reviews of the Wave..
                  There's not many yet online.. It's weird,Mobile-Review usually post an english version of their russian reviews,but they hvnt yet for the Wave.. Google Translate is ok,but it's still kinda annoying to read..
                  GSMArena is the best place for reviews tho.. Hopefully they post it soon.. :))

                                        yep,this phone is awesome.. if u thot iphone3gs is the best gaming phone,this one has even greater GPU than the 3gs

                                        * we just have to wait for the apps to be released though :/

                                        and i bet those apps would also be good coz samsung's giving away cash to the app/game developer if theyd win the contest,.. :D im just excited for that coz ryt now, paid apps for bada is still close.
