This phone is very light and its pretty good looking, the battery lasts 3-4 days (I don't talk on the phone that much) and the touch screen is very very good. I have bluetooth in my car, but the loundspeaker on this phone is so good that I don't turn on the bluetooth anymore. Overall I’m very happy with this phone; the only downside is the BADA OS.

Samsung has slowly and deliberately disabled the home key. It's now totally dead and pretty much useless. Can no longer take screenshots of my phone and run the Task Manager.

I am using official version of BADA 2.0 since 10days, although its interface is a mixture of iOS n android but is slow, is missing some essential features of 1.0/1.2. However is good to use in many ways, but i am having some problems, my phone sometimes automatically comes into silent mode while it is still in the general mode. I dont know why???
Anyways am just waiting for galaxy S3's launch in India to replace it with my wave, though wave is a good phone, its OS is not & thus i wouldn't recommend it to anyone as OS nowadays are more important as they are the brains of smartphones.

Found a way to make a draft message:
- Write your message and save it under scheduled (same key as join a picture)
- When you want to use it again, long press on it to copy text, write a new message, and paste the text

At last Bada 2 coming to Thailand with Kies! But what a disappointment... 1.2 was far better and easier to use. All that time for that ? Not even a draft folder in messages. And everything in the phone was wiped off because of the upgrade. Trust me, stay with Bada 1.2. Of course all new games need bada 2, but they are all crap.

It seems that Wave I is still the best. Its display is better than Even HTC One S. I feel that a great piece of hardware needs a proper OS to justify its position. The phone rocks in all departments - music, camera, battery life. But Samsung is bound to kill it (and has done so literally in many countries by releasing crappy firmware for 2.0). Whoever designed this phone should've been appointed for Galaxy S3's design.. S3 is a real pain to look at in 2012.
Samsung, grow up... You have the potential, but you kill it yourself.

All the few interesting games and apps are for Bada 2, and there is no upgrade to Bada 2 for my Wave 1 from Thailand...Waiting to buy Sony Xperia P as soon as possible. Fed up of Samsung.

By the way, why you people keep on writing opinions? This phone is already quite old.
