    Really great phone.
    But now the camera key is giving problem and sometimes the phone reboot when surfing the web. The delay with upgrading to Bada 2 is also a hint that Bada is dead.
    Was the best phone in its time, but now i am looking to get one of those amazing dual core android phones soon to be available after the WMC 2012...

                    Samsung Kies is a piece of cr*p. Samsung Apps' not working. And now it stops responding when I try to update the FW of my phone.
                    Using Samsung Kies always leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

                      u can opt the second best contender HTC they hv a good built up quality and are at par with the consumer response
                      nxt u can go fr sony ericsson they have party look fr their phones and are knwn as trendsetter fr their design and concept
                      and finally motorola they have a good rep ovrseas but have gathered a poor response here in india
                      frm htc u can consider:
                      htc sensation line up, desire hd
                      SE:
                      SE arc, arc s, and the entire xperia line up as per ur requirement
                      moto:
                      moto droid 4 bionic, moto luxe, moto razr

                          I bought it for a year now. So at this moment my comment would be more precise.
                          Fristly, it already a year gone by,so this model is no longer " Hot".However,if you intrested in some model of the same type,there are something you may want to consider:
                          1.It had a very good build and really reliable.Sensitive touch,vivid colour and pretty good sound.Moreover,it combined all vital app for daily needs.The main things i like about it most is the upgrade ver 2.0 of Bada O.S....Just so beautiful and coutious....
                          However,there are some breakdown here,fisrtly the apps market for Bada obviously would by far to compare with others.That broung the whole good thing down alot if you tend to change app every 2-3 weeks.If you dont,then everything is fine.There are many good apps and also free there.
                          In a nut shell,if you are interesting in a Bada phone,make sure you can upgrade or it is ver 2.0...If not then you may want to consider more ...Have fun

                                  Found a flaw:

                                  Sent a message around 12:50 pm, and got a reply a minute later. In conversation mode, the reply was timed around 12:45 pm. It should be timed around 12:51 or 52 using the time of my phone so that it would be properly threaded. Which in this case should be at the top of the thread.

                                      its not deserving to be in top three because of poor support and they release the incomplete bada 2. or the official beta it sooo sad i love my wave very much but it dont deserve in the top it should not be there when there is no future for it. i lost my hope for it and relly tired of waiting it sooo sad very frustrating.
