Hi evry1, WAVE the phone i found outstanding.I purchased it 2mnths bak,after uzing it for couple of weeks i xchangd it with Galaxy S.Though Galaxy S i
s very nice phone compairng wth Apple I phone.I found flash missing in it,bt i ddnt got tht feeling of using such xpnsive phone.Afte few days i again turnd on to WAVE.I cnt xpress my feelings for WAVE.I found every thing in it.Bt Android is missing.This disapoints me little bit.Hope Samsung will surly look after it.
Guys who r planning to buy phone surly go go for Samsung WAVE.I say its really value of money..Happy Talking...

    I am using Wave for the last two months and it is good with just one glitch. That is when you are in call and if you need to scroll the contact list and trying to get a particular contact detail, it is automatically calling that particular number. This is very inconvenience since we cannot give any contact number if needed to the caller during a call. Is it the problem in the software of Bada or is there any solution operationally. Reply is appreciated.

      I have had my Samsung Wave for a few weeks now. I think it is excellent. fantastic screen, intuitive handling of messaging and calls. The camera is unbelievably good; the panorama function is fantastic. You really don't need to carry a separate camera. All in all I am happy to recommend this phone.

          Anonymous, 08 Oct 2010N8 is the BEST!!!Are you sure N8 is best? Best for your needs.

          To me I need fast CPU, best display and pocket friendly like the Wave....
          Full of excellent features at best price.

          N8 is not so fit to me because I can't use anytime its best feature, the camera. I can't stand taking pictures in front of the crowd using my camera phone....

                            guys read this link..

                            http://www.yugatech.com/blog/mobile/is-it-bada-or-bust-for-samsung/

                            did you read the statament “During the last Bada Developer Seminar with Samsung, they indicated that their Bada OS will be targeted more to their mid-range handsets giving way to Android for the high-end units.”


                            what's up with that? MID-RANGE handsets? i don't think that's a clever idea, considering the fact the Bada OS has the potential to steal the crown against the two leading OS's today.. namely, iOs and android.. Bada is just on its infancy stage, im pretty sure it'll be the king of all OS's when the put extra effort developing this OS..

                              Hmm......looks like we both also having used to Samsung mobile phone before we enter to world of WAVE. I myself also having INNOV8 before I get my WAVE.

                              So strangely, what I found is different to yours regarding the HD video recording quality. For my case I'm personally have recorded 1 of my friend birthday party and compare it to the N8, but the result is totally opposite of what you've posted.

                              For my case the result of the HD video quality produced by my WAVE is SUPER smooth and the image quality is much clearer and better than N8. For sound quality, I don't feel any different between both unit. For me there are at the same sound quality level.

                              I'm not a NOKIA hater, I'm a Nokia user before I had my Samsung INNOV8. I personally think that there is no definite conclusion of which unit of video image quality better than other unit. It's all depend on the situation and condition where / when the time we shot / record it.

                              As for me, I will also go for WAVE as Bada OS has a huge potential yet to reveal and as well as the "cost" of the device.

                              Thanks.
